Safety Research on the Tritium System for China TBM

Abstract:

Tritium safety research on the tritium system of Test Blanket Module(TBM) was carried out. At first, according to safety analysis task and method of tritium system, the research process framework about the tritium safety analysis was given. Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) on tritium system was carried out, analyzing the calculation process of permission value of TBM Tritium release. In order to compare and assess safety grade of the tritium system among all kinds of nuclear facilities, calculation formula was given, finally.
