The European Community is committed to the development of a DEMOnstration fusion power plant whose operation could start as soon as 2050. The blanket is one of the most critical components in a fusion reactor; three of the four blanket concepts currently under development are based on the use of the liquid eutectic alloy Pb-15.7Li. Since the blanket will operate under the strong magnetic field used to confine the plasma, electromagnetic forces will occur in the PbLi flow giving rise to magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) phenomena.

Abstract
The European Community is committed to the development of a DEMOnstration fusion power plant whose operation could start as soon as 2050. The blanket is one of the most critical components in a fusion reactor; three of the four blanket concepts currently under development are based on the use of the liquid eutectic alloy Pb-15.7Li. Since the blanket will operate under the strong magnetic field used to confine the plasma, electromagnetic forces will occur in the PbLi flow giving rise to magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) phenomena.File in questo prodotto:
