Abstract

The invention discloses low-electric conductivity liquid-state tritium proliferation agent for fusion and a preparation method thereof. The proliferation agent is the mixture of a liquid-state base body and dispersion particles. The conductivity is 1-106s/m. The proliferation agent comprises: by volume percentage, liquid-state proliferation agent base body 60%-99.99% and dispersion particles 0.01%-40%. The dispersion particles are prepared from silicon carbide, or aluminium oxide, or beryllia, or silica, or erbium oxide, or lithium silicate, or positive lithium silicate, or lithium titanate, or lithium oxide, or lithium aluminate, or lithium zirconate, or two of them, or more of them. The preparation method comprises steps of dispersing roasted dispersion particles into liquid state metal in a high temperature furnace with atmosphere protection via mechanical stirring. According to the invention, on the premise that performance of tritium proliferation is well ensured, electric conductivity is effectively reduced and heat conductivity is increased, thereby remarkably reducing magnetohydrodynamics pressure drop (MHD effects) of liquid-state tritium proliferation agent in high magnetic field.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of fusion nuclear energy material engineering, and mainly relates to cladding tritium breeder materials, in particular to a low-conductivity liquid tritium breeder for fusion and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In a fusion reactor, the cladding is a key component to realize the multiplication of tritium fuel and the output of fusion nuclear energy, and plays an important role in the multiplication of tritium. At present, there are two types of cladding proliferators: solid proliferators and liquid proliferators. The solid proliferators are made of high-temperature-resistant ceramic balls made of lithium silicate, lithium titanate, lithium zirconate, and lithium oxide. When working, the 14MeV high-energy neutrons generated by the fusion reaction react with the lithium in the pellet to generate tritium, and the generated tritium is extracted by purging helium at a suitable temperature. Due t...
