Description

This overview of first wall, blanket and shield technology focuses first on trends in important design issues from the 1970's to the 1980's, then on current perceptions of critical issues in first wall, blanket and shield design and related technology. The emphasis is on base technology rather than either systems engineering or materials development, on the two primary confinement systems, tokamaks and mirrors, and on production of electricity as the primary goal for development
