Experimental Investigation on Pressure Drops of Purge Gas Helium in Packed Pebble Beds for Nuclear Fusion Blanket

Experimental Investigation on Pressure Drops of Purge Gas Helium in Packed Pebble Beds for Nuclear Fusion Blanket

The flow characteristics of purge gas helium in the pebble bed of the tritium breeding blanket are important in analyzing the tritium purging process and optimizing the design of the solid breeder blanket. Therefore, the flow characteristics of helium gas in randomly packed pebble beds are investiga...
