Özet

In this work, a fusion-fission reactor fuelling with ThSi 2 is investigated. Natural Li is selected as a moderator in the reactor and Li 2TiO 3, Li 2ZrO 3, Li 4SiO 4 and Li 2O are used in the tritium breeding zones of the reactor. 14.1 MeV D-T neutrons are used as a fusion neutron source. Tritium breeding rates, U breeding rates, fission energy breeding rates and fission power production are investigated for ?t=10 days during a reactor operation period over four years. Using Li 2O in tritium breeding zones of the reactor provided highest tritium breeding rate. Highest value of 233U breeding and production of the fission energy are reached with using of Li 2ZrO 3 in tritium breeding zones of the blanket.
