文摘Attaining tritium self-sufficiency is indispensable in a Z-pinch-driven fusion–fission hybrid reactor(ZFFR).In this paper,a conceptual design is presented in which the Z-FFR tritium cycle system was divided into eight subsystems.A theoretical analysis of tritium inventory based on the mean residence time was performed to quantitatively obtain the tritium distribution in each subsystem.Tritium self-sufficiency judgment criteria were established using a tritium mass flow analysis method.The dependency relationships between the burning rate,tritium breeding ratio,extraction efficiency,and tritium self-sufficiency were also specified for the steady state.
