Tandem mirror reactor

The next sections describe three reactor studies with emphasis on the lithium-structure compatibility. HYLIFE is a liquid metal wall (LMW) ICF reactor considered here for electricity production. It has also been adapted to fissile fuel production ( 5). The Tandem Mirror Reactor (TMR) Cauldron Blanket Module is an MCF concept designed to produce hydrogen. The TMR Heat Pipe Blanket Module is designed to produce either hydrogen or electricity. All three studies emphasize materials compatibility with lithium. Tritium recovery techniques and two aspects of lead-lithium liquids are also discussed. [Pg.501]

Design Concept. Thermochemical cycles for hydrogen production lend themselves well to use of a Tandem Mirror Reactor (TMR) heat source with a liquid Li blanket design. This linkage of a thermochemical hydrogen cycle to a TMR is favorable for several reasons ( )... [Pg.510]
