Technical Meeting on SP1 DESIGN of IP EUROTRANS FZK December 16, 2003 Presentation of SP1 DESIGN Structure and Contents Up-dates H. Aït Abderrahim

Objectives of SP1 DESIGN  The objective of the DESIGN SP is to develop a reference design for a European Transmutation Demonstrator (ETD) with a power of few 100’s MW th.  In this updated approach we will be developing a two step strategy for the ETD realisation:  The ETD/EFIT (European Facility for Industrial-scale Transmutation) on the long term  The ETD/XT-ADS (eXperimental Transmuter based on ADS) on a shorter term and being a sort of a first-of-kind of the ETD. Coolant for the XT-ADS core and the spallation target is a heavy liquid metal (Pb-Bi)  Gas or Pb cooling are to be considered the core cooling of the EFIT.  The most promising design options within the FP5 PDS-XADS Designs will be serving for the design of the ETD  The design parameters initially considered for the XADS should be revisited in the light of the new objective of the ETD to be a large scale transmutation machine

Sources for the preparation of the SP1 DESIGN proposal:  Objectives of the IP-EUROTRANS as stated  Results of the Euratom 5 th Framework Programme  PDS-XADS  FUETRA Cluster  TESTRA Cluster  BASTRA Cluster  Question sheets outcome from PDS-XADS  Feed-back from our community after the 1st TIEM on IP EUROTRANS of Karlsruhe on Nov. 6, 2003
