Description
The front header of one of the ITER shield blankets is studied using the FLUENT code. The calculation results indicate that the cooling of the front lid in the front header is not adequate and uniform. To meet the design requirement of ITER, the flow driver is improved, and the new structure is given in this paper. According to the analysis, the cooling of the front lid will be adequate and uniform because of the modified flow driver and this can satisfy the design requirement of ITER. (authors)
