Abstract

A global thermal-hydraulic model of the EU DEMO tokamak, based on an object-oriented approach using the Modelica language, is currently under development at Politecnico di Torino. The first module of the global model will simulate the dynamics of the blanket cooling system and it will be able to investigate different coolant options and different cooling schemes, adapted to the different blanket systems currently under development in the Breeding Blanket project. Following the development of the module related to the Helium-Cooled Pebble Bed blanket, this paper presents the dynamic model of the Water-Cooled Lithium Lead (WCLL) blanket, designed at ENEA Brasimone, together with the first results obtained in steady-state conditions.
