In the old design of FDR2001, the pressure drop in the poloidal hole was very high and it was difficult to achieve uniform flow distribution in the radial holes. In recent years, great improvements of the blanket design were made by ITER international team. One of the most important improvements is the new coolant flow configuration in the SB (See Fig.l), where a special shape of flow driver is mounted inside the drilled radial hole, and coolant flows through clearance between the driver and the hole.展开更多

In the current design TM, the cooling circuit in the SB is a matrix of radial holes which are arranged in eight poloidal rows. The rows are fed in parallel by front headers and back drilled collectors, and merge in four couples through the front header. These four couples of rows are linked in series by transverse holes.
