Proyectos de Ciencias Físicas e Ingeniería

F4E: Actividades experimentales en apoyo al diseño de HCLL y HCPB TBS: sistema de metal líquido e interfaces hidrógeno/metal

Programa específico: Fusion For Energy Joint Undertaking (F4E JU)
UPV/EHU: Tercero vinculado al consorcio de asociados de TBM (TBM-CA)
IP UPV/EHU: Igor Peñalva Bengoa
Inicio del proyecto: 15/09/2014
Fin del proyecto: 23/09/2016

Breve descripción: El objetivo de los servicios es realizar actividades experimentales en apoyo del diseño de las TBS HCLL y HCPB. Los servicios solicitados están relacionados principalmente con la verificación del rendimiento y el diseño del sistema de metal líquido, en particular el bucle de PbLi y la TBM HCLL. Los servicios 15 y 16, cuyo objetivo es proporcionar datos adicionales para evaluar la permeación de isótopos de hidrógeno a través de los materiales estructurales de la TBM, son relevantes para el diseño de todos los subsistemas de la TBS, incluidas las TBM HCLL y HCPB. Sin embargo, los insumos más relevantes para definir las actividades experimentales se derivan de las condiciones HCLL y HCPB TBM y TES, además del bucle PbLi.
