Shut-down dose rate analysis for the activated target assembly in IFMIF-DONES during maintenance

Abstract

• The activation and shutdown dose analyses of the IFMIF-DONES. • Transport and activation calculations using McDeLicious code. • The dose rate maps in the access cell as well as the shielding assessments is presented. • The analysis of the shielding for activated target of DONES. This paper presents the activation and shutdown dose analyses of the IFMIF-DONES (International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility – DEMO-Oriented NEutron Source) Target assembly. To this end, a series of coupled transport and activation calculations are performed using McDeLicious code, which is based on the MCNP Monte Carlo code for simulating the neutron production from d-Li reactions, and the FISPACT inventory code. The latest DONES test cell model has been employed and FENDL neutron cross-section data library has been used. Shut-down dose rate calculations were performed using the R2Smesh code system developed at KIT. The obtained dose rate maps in the access cell as well as the shielding assessments will be presented in the paper.
