Description
The nuclear performance of the blankets containing Sr 90 as a transmutation target is presented for D-D fusion reactors. The transmutation rate of Sr 90 and the total nuclear energy deposition in several D-D reactor blankets are calculated. The results of calculation reveal that attaining high neutron wall loading is essential to obtain an attractive transmutation of Sr 90 and to exploit the D-D reactor as a transmuter. (orig.)
Abstract (German)
Es wird das nukleare Verhalten von Blankets, die Sr 90 als Transmutationstarget enthalten, dargestellt sowie die Transmutationsrate von Sr 90 und die Gesamt-Energieaufnahme in einigen D-D-Reaktorblankets berechnet. Die Berechnung zeigt, dass eine hohe Neutronen-Wandladung wesentlich fuer eine ergiebige Transmutation von Sr 90 ist sowie die Ausnutzung des D-D-Reaktors als Transmuter. (orig.)Additional details
