Neutronics analysis for the test blanket modules proposed for EAST and ITER
The dual-functional lithium lead-test blanket module (DFLL-TBM) system, which is designated to demonstrate the integrated technologies of both the He single coolant (SLL) blanket and the He-LiPb dual coolant (DLL) blanket, is proposed for testing in ITER to check and validate the feasibility of the Chinese LiPb blankets. Considering the conflict between the limited ITER resources for TBM testing and the requirement of various blanket concepts proposed by the parties, EAST, the superconducting tokamak being operated in China, can serve as a valuable pre-testing platform with some comparable design parameters to ITER for DFLL-TBM. In the contribution, neutronics calculations and activation of the TBMs in EAST are carried out and compared with those in the D-D and D-T phase of ITER. The results from EAST can make an analogy to ITER (to some extent). © 2007 IAEA.
