Abstract

In this work, in a $ThSi_2$ fuelled-flibe moderated fusion-fission reactor in the tritium breeding zones of the reactor are used four different Li compound, respectively, $Li_2TiO_3$, $Li_2ZrO_3$, $Li_4SiO_4$ and $Li_2O$. D-T fusion reactions are used as a fusion neutron source which produces 14.1 MeV neutrons with averaged energy. Fusil and fissile fuel breeding rates, fission energy breeding rates and fission power production are investigated for $\Delta t=10$ days during a reactor operation period in four years. In tritium breeding zones used $Li_2O$ of the reactor provided highest fusil breeding rate whereas, highest value of fissile breeding and production of the fission energy are reached with using of $Li_2TiO_3$ and $Li_2ZrO_3$ in tritium breeding zones of the blanket.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, $ThSi_2$ yakıtlı flibe $(Li_2BeF_4)$ soğutuculu bir füzyon-fisyon hibrid reaktörde trityum üretim bölgesinde $Li_2TiO_3$, $Li_2ZrO_3$, $Li_4SiO_4$ ve $Li_2O$ gibi dört farklı Li bileşikleri kullanılmıştır. Füzyon nötron kaynağı olarak 14.1 MeV ortalama enerjili nötronlar üreten D-T reaksiyonları kullanılmış ve $\Delta t=10$ gün olmak üzere 4 yıllık çalışma süresince reaktörde füzyon nötron kaynağı için gerekli fusil yakıt üretimi, fisil izotop üretimi, fisyon enerjisi üretimi ve nükleer güç üretiminin değişimleri incelenmiştir. Tritiyum üretim bölgesinde $Li_2O$ kullanıldığında en yüksek fusil yakıt üretimi elde edilirken, fisil üretimde ve fisyon enerjisi üretiminde $Li_2TiO_3$ ve Li2ZrO3 bileşiklerinin kullanıldığı mantolarda en iyi sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır.
