Abstract
A dual temperature hydrogen isotopic exchange reaction system between water and hydrogen gas is numerically analyzed. The system has two features; high efficiency of isotope exchange reaction and operation under atmospheric pressure. To achieve them, the low temperature section of the system is composed of water mist and hydrogen gas co-current reactor units. For the high temperature section, a multistage-type reactor, in which a bubble plate, superheater and catalyst bed are alternatively arranged, is applied. From a material balance between these reactors, enrichment and decontamination factors for the system are expressed as functions of seven parameters: unit number of the low temperature co-current reactor (X); stage number of the high temperature section (Y); flow ratio of tritium enriched water to decontaminated water (P/W), flow ratio of feed water to hydrogen gas (F/G); reaction temperatures of the low and high temperature sections (T c , T h ); and bubble plate temperature (T b ). Numerical calc...
