University of California, San Diego ARIES-CS Power Core Options for Phase II and Focus of Engineering Effort A. René Raffray University of California, San Diego ARIES Meeting UCSD November 4-5, 2004 November 4-5, 2004/ARR

Engineering Activities During Phase I of ARIES-CS Study • Perform Scoping Assessment of Different Maintenance Schemes and Blanket Concepts for Down Selection to a Couple of Combinations for Phase II • Three Possible Maintenance Schemes: 1. Field-period based replacement including disassembly of modular coil system (e.g. SPPS, ASRA-6C) 2. Replacement of blanket modules through a few ports (using articulated boom) 3. Replacement of blanket modules through ports arranged between each pair of adjacent modular coils (e.g. HSR) • Different Blanket Classes 1. Self-cooled Pb-17Li blanket with SiCf/SiC as structural material 2. Dual-Coolant blanket with He-cooled FS structure and self-cooled LM (Li or Pb- 17Li) 3. He-cooled CB blanket with FS structure 4. Flibe blanket with advanced FS November 4-5, 2004/ARR

Down Selection of Maintenance Schemes for Phase II • We are maintaining two options: 1. Field period replacement 2. Replacement of relatively small modules through a small number of ports (perhaps 1 or 2 per field period) with the use of articulated booms. More details of the procedures involved needed in both cases Final selection of maintenance scheme will have to be compatible with the machine configuration based on our physics and system optimization during Phase II November 4-5, 2004/ARR

Major Parameters of Different Blanket Concepts November 4-5, 2004/ARR

What Kind of Criteria for Assessment? From Les Waganer (for illustration purposes): November 4-5, 2004/ARR

Down-Selection of Blanket Concepts • Ceramic Breeder Concepts - Requires large heat transfer surfaces (impact on complexity, fabrication, cost) - Relatively thick breeding zone - Modest cycle efficiency • Molten salts - In general, poor heat transfer performance - Limits q’’ and wall load that could be accommodated for self-cooled concept - Self-cooled flibe blanket only feasible with advanced ODS FS. - DC concept with He as FW coolant preferable • DC Concepts (He/Liquid Breeder) - He cooling needed most probably for ARIES-CS divertor (to be fully studied as part of Phase II). - Additional use of this coolant for the FW/structure of blankets facilitates pre- heating of blankets, serves as guard heating, and provides independent and redundant afterheat removal - Generally good combination of design simplicity and performance • Reasonable to maintain a higher pay-off, higher risk option in Phase II mix (e.g. high temperature option with SiCf/SiC) November 4-5, 2004/ARR

Selection of Blanket Concepts for Phase II 1. Dual Coolant concept with a self-cooled liquid breeder zone and He-cooled RAFS structure: 1(a) Pb-17Li with SiC-composite as electrical (and thermal) insulator between flowing LM and steel structure. 1(b) Molten salt (possibly FLINABE with lower melting point) with the possibility of Be or lead as neutron multiplier as back-up option (lower priority). 2. Self-cooled Pb-17Li blanket with SiC-composite as structural material. • In principle, these concepts could all be developed in combination with either a field-period-based maintenance scheme or a port-based maintenance scheme. November 4-5, 2004/ARR

Major Focus of Engineering Effort During Phase II Divertor design and analysis Detailed design and analysis of dual coolant concept with a self-cooled Pb-17Li zone and He-cooled RAFS structure: • Modular concept first (port-based maintenance) • Field-period based maintenance concept next Coil cross-section (including insulation + structural support) • Do we need to do structural analysis? Integration with credible details about design of different components, maintenance and ancillary equipment for both maintenance schemes. Note that much of the effort on the modular concept is compatible with either 3-field period or 2-field period configurations. For simplicity we should focus on one configuration and flag any potential issue if applied to the other configuration. November 4-5, 2004/ARR

Divertor Design and Analysis • Focus on He-cooled divertor • Thomas Ihli from FZK will be joining us as a visiting scholar from January to July 2005. His tasks will include: - Scoping study of heat transfer enhancement mechanisms for He-cooled divertor - Design and analysis of most promising configuration to show that design can accommodate all constraints and that a credible fabrication method exists - Integration of divertor design within the overall compact stellarator power plant to show the compatibility of the divertor design, materials and coolant with those of other components (including the blanket/shield coolant(s) and power cycle), and to show a credible installation/maintenance scheme. • Key precursor and parallel activity - Physics modeling to provide a better idea of the divertor location and of the design heat flux - Hayden McGuinness, Arthur Grossman and T. K. Mau are coordinating this activity - Install/update/develop/run MFBE, GOURDON and GEOM codes November 4-5, 2004/ARR

Detailed Design and Analysis of Dual Coolant Concept with a Self-Cooled Pb-17Li Zone and He-Cooled RAFS Structure • Modular concept first (port-based maintenance) • Design and analysis to show in sufficient and credible details: - Module attachment and replacement - Port maintenance including all pipes and lines - Coolant lines coupling to the heat exchanger (choice of material) - Tritium extraction system for Pb-17Li - Interface Pb-17Li/FS temperature and compatibility with corrosion limits - Analysis of assumed LOCA/LOFA accident scenarios - Effect of FS on confinement Engineering group discussion today or tomorrow on these to agree on plan of action for Phase II November 4-5, 2004/ARR
