Abstract

Production of tritium using a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) has been studied for a prior engineering test with tritium handling and for the startup operation of a demonstration fusion reactor. For this purpose, the hydrogen absorption speed of Zr in a Li-loading rod for the reactor operation is experimentally measured, and an analysis model is presented to evaluate the tritium outflow from the Li rod in a high-temperature engineering test reactor (HTTR). On the basis of the presented model, the structure of the Li-loading rod for the demonstration test using the HTTR is proposed.
