Current Status and Challenges of the Cold Trap Development Undertaken at CVR
Original language description
Centrum výzkumu Řež (CVR) is involved in research and development of a purification technique of the liquid lithium-lead eutectic alloy (Pb-16Li) based on use of a cold trap. The first activities linked to this field are dated from 2003. For the cold trap development, the experimental loop Meliloo is used. This paper describes latest development and testing of air cooled cold trap. Design of the apparatus was supported with computational simulations to achieve homogenous temperature field. The cold trap was fabricated, instrumented with thermocouples and tested. A series of CFD simulations to evaluate velocity and temperature field of the PbLi liquid metal inside the cold trap was performed for different operational conditions. The results of these studies were subsequently compared with the experimental data and the suitability of the used computational code was evaluated. The work was also focused on purification efficiency and study of dissolved particles.
