Brief description:  The objective of the services is to perform experimental activities in support of the design of the HCLL and HCPB TBS. The services requested are mainly related to performance and design verification of liquid metal system, in particular the PbLi loop and the HCLL TBM. Services 15 and 16, whose objective is to provide additional data to evaluate the permeation of hydrogen isotopes through the TBM structural materials, are relevant to the design of all TBS sub-systems, including the HCLL and HCPB TBMs. However, the most relevant inputs to define the experimental activities are derived from the HCLL and HCPB TBM and TES conditions, in addition to the PbLi loop.
