ASSESSMENT OF IFE DRY CHAMBER WALL (TO BE PUBLISHED IN FUSION ENGINEERING & DESIGN) A. R. Raffray, R. R. Peterson, M. Billone, L. El-Guebaly, G. Federici, D. Goodin, A. Hassanein, D. Haynes, R. Moore, F. Najmabadi, D. Petti, R. Petzoldt, M.S. Tillack, X. Wang, M. Zaghloul • Last Reminder Sent on October 2, 2001, Including Latest Outline and Expected Contributions • Contributions Due by the End of October October 24, 2001

5 Overlap Points Simple self consistent calculation • Driver parameters • Chamber geometry and chamber wall design • Power to chamber wall • Coolant outlet temperature • Cycle efficiency • Thermal-hydraulic parameters • Maximum temperature of chamber wall - Chamber wall power assumed to be spread over the complete period between successive shots (optimistic assumption) • Run a few example cases with the goal of maintaining SiCf/SiC Tmax at the wall < 1000°C - Results will show acceptable combination of parameters (design window) - e.g. limit on chamber size for a given power output October 24, 2001

6 Example Temperature History for Tungsten Flat Wall Under Energy Deposition from Indirect-Drive Spectra Chamber Wall Coolant Inlet Energy Front Assume Channel L = pR 4-mm SiCf/SiC Wall Coolant Outlet 5-mm Cooling Channel Max. SiCf/SiC Temp. 1-mm W Armor Direct Drive: Driver Energy = 1.2 MJ Gain = 128 Yield = MJ Driver Efficiency = 0.07 Indirect Drive: Driver Energy = 3.3 MJ Gain = 139 Yield = MJ Driver Efficiency = 0.25 October 24, 2001

7 Parametric Studies for Dry Wall with Direct Drive Target Under Constraint: Tmax,SiC/SiC < 1000°C
October 24, 2001

8 Combination of Parameters to Maintain Tmax,SiC/SiC < 1000°C for Direct Drive Target
Adjust coolant outlet temperature (and hence cycle eff.) as a function of chamber radius to maintain SiCf/SiC Temp. < 1000°C Fusion power = 1690 MW Direct Drive: Driver Energy = 1.2 MJ Gain = 128 Yield = MJ Driver Efficiency = 0.07 Example trade-off - What is preferable: a 5.2-m chamber with 7 Hz rep rate and 500 MWe or a 7.3-m chamber with 14.2 Hz rep rate and 1000MWe? Preferable to operate with higher cycle efficiency for given fusion power October 24, 2001

9 Parametric Studies for Dry Wall with Indirect Drive Target Under Constraint: Tmax,SiC/SiC < 1000°C October 24, 2001

10 Combination of Parameters to Maintain Tmax,SiC/SiC < 1000°C for Indirect Drive Target
Driver Energy = 3.3 MJ Gain = 139 Yield = MJ Driver Efficiency = 0.25 Adjust coolant outlet temperature (and hence cycle eff.) as a function of chamber radius to maintain SiCf/SiC Temp. < 1000°C Example trade-off - What is preferable: a 5-m chamber with 2 Hz rep rate and 500 MWe or a 6.9-m chamber with 4 Hz rep rate and 1000MWe? October 24, 2001

11 Choice of Strawman Parameters
See strawman file - Parameters correspond to 1000MWe - It is not clear if a smaller chamber with lower electrical power would provide cost benefit - However, if a smaller chamber size is required by other considerations (e.g. target injection) we should change the parameters to accommodate this October 24, 2001

12 Scoping Analysis of Chamber Recovery Time for Sacrificial Wall Concept
X-ray, gamma & neutron preheating phase: liquid Concern about creating quiescent atmosphere in time for next shot: • Time scale of recovery mechanisms, e.g: - Condensation - Clearing - Aerosol evacuation Ion heating phase: background vapor 2-phase Transport phase: radiation convection • Initial effort on scoping analysis of time scale for recondensation October 24, 2001

13 Schematic of RECON Model for Estimating Evaporation/Recondensation Following Chamber Micro-Explosion
• Simple 1-D Model Initially Developed for PROMETHEUS Analysis (M. Tillack) - Conduction through wall and convection to coolant - Wall temperature estimated from quasi steady-state heat flux and coolant temperature - Evaporation/condensation at liquid wall surface - X-ray energy attenuated in chamber gas and in liquid wall - Radiation between chamber vapor and wall - Ion energy assumed to be deposited in chamber vapor only Radiation Vapor Conduction Convection Film Wall Coolant October 24, 2001

14 Using RECON to Help in Sacrificial Wall Analysis and Assessment
• Major issue about “long term” chamber dynamics e.g. How long does it take for chamber to return to desired pre-shot conditions • Key processes and parameters include: - vapor condensation - vapor radiation - heat transfer to coolant (influencing liquid wall temperature) - Pressure of chamber gas - Rep rate - Chamber size - Coolant temperature Proposed Action Plan - Validation case from one remaining run from PROMETHEUS - Try to adapt RECON to provide solutions for the DD and ID target parameters - Assess accuracy and usefulness of results - Perform initial parametric analysis to assess relative importance of various parameters - Make assessment of combinations of parameters (design window analysis) October 24, 2001

15 Comparison of RECON Run with PROMETHEUS Results for Pb
Pb vapor pressure history Pb vapor temperature history October 24, 2001

16 Example Parametric Runs for Pb Film
Effect of background gas pressure on Pb vapor temperature history following shot Effect of background gas pressure on Pb vapor pressure history following shot - Affects vapor recondensation rate October 24, 2001

17 Effect of Coolant Temperature and of Wall Heat Transfer Capability on Pb Vapor Pressure History Following Shot Effect of coolant temperature on Pb vapor pressure history Effect of wall conduction and convection to coolant on Pb vapor pressure history October 24, 2001
