TECNO-FUS is a PROGRAMME financed by the Spanish Government (by means of a Consolider grant in the MICINN Department ref CSD2008-079) and oriented towards the development of technologies associated with the breeding blanket of future fusion power plants.
The purpose of the breeding blanket is twofold: to extract the energy generated in the power reactor, and to convert Lithium into Tritium.
Associated techniques involve neutron detection, the development of materials (eurofer steel, ceramics, SiC or composite silicon carbon materials), the management of liquid metals in strong magnetic fields, and thermomechanical calculations in complex geometries. First design of a Dual coolant, dual functional model is not otiginal of TECNO-FUS, what is original is the development of the Design so called DRM (spanish for "Doble Refrigerante Modular").
Institutions involved are specialized Centres and Universities all over Spain, e.g. Centro de Estudios e Investigaciones Técnicas de Gipuzkoa (CEIT) of Universidad de Navarra (UDEN), Universidad Pontificia de Comillas (ETSII-COMILLAS), EHU-Universidad del Paía Vasco, Instituto Químico de Sarriá (Universidad Ramón Llul), ITMA (at Lllaneras-Avilés), UCM (Madrid), UDEN, Universidad Politécnica de Cataluña, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid coordinated by CIEMAT as Management Entity, where the Head of the LNF is the Coordinator Research and there is a Technical Secretary.
Leadearship researchers are distribute in the following 9 tasks:
- Computational neutronics of DRM He/LiPb box (Task 1)
- Integral structural design TM/EM of DERM He/LiPB box (Task 2)
- Integral CDF computational capabilities for Liquid Metal and gas channels of the DRM He LiPb box and
auxiliary systems (Task 3)
- Production of DRM funtional and structural materials (Task 4)
- Design of technologies and plant systems (Task 5)
- Breeding blanket diagnostic and CODAC architectures (Task 6)
- Safety analysis and environmental impact of DRM He/LiPb system (Task 7)
- DEMO plasmae & reactor specifications (TAsk 8)
- Blanket & Systems integration and engineering survey.
