Abstract
The diffusion, solution and permeation coefficients of hydrogen isotopes in liquid Li-Pb which is a candidate liquid blanket material for fusion reactors were determined in the temperature range 573-973K using an unsteady permeation method. Each coefficiens was correlated to temperature as follows:The hydrogen permeation flux depends on the square root of pressure at 773-973K. Although the power of pressure declined below 0.4 when temperature was below 673K, the effects of surface resistance were neglected above 673K.The hydrogen solubility in liquid Li-Pbwas found to correlate with a Sievert’s constant.We calculated a height-equivalent to theoretical-plate of a gas-liquid countercurrent extraction tower for tritium recovery rates in liquid Li-Pb to be
