摘要
The concept described for the blanket surrounding a fusion reaction chamber is based on the use of molten fluoride salts to convert fusion energy into electricity and to breed the tritium fuel for the fusion power plant. Helium cools the first-wall and the blanket internals, which consists of a bed of beryllium balls in which neutrons are multiplied. The neutrons are used to breed tritium and also to release extra energy in exothermic nuclear reactions. Tritium is bred in the molten Flibe salt (LiF plus BeF//2) that flows slowly (approximately 0. 1 m/s) in steel tubes and is removed from the salt and the helium by processing both streams.
