In-Vessel Loss of coolant accident assessment of a generalized LLCB TBS in ITER using RELAP/SCDAPSIM Code

EasyChair Preprint 2757

Abstract

This work attempts to investigate the effect of In-Vessel loss of coolant accident of First Wall Helium Cooling System, of Lead-Lithium cooled Ceramic Breeder (LLCB) Test Blanket Module (TBM) system for ITER safety. The analysis discusses a number of safety concerns and issues that may result from the TBM component failure, such as VV pressurization, TBM FW temperature profile, passive decay heat removal capability and Suppression Tank (ST) pressure control capability. The analysis shows that in these accident scenarios the critical parameters have reasonable safety margins.
