Abstract

Abstract:

The conceptual design of liquid blanket tritium bubbler (LBTB) with the gas-liquid exchange column as core was proposed, based on the works of hydrogen extraction from liquid lithium alloys by gas-liquid contact method. LBTB consists of the gas sample purifier, gas-liquid exchange column system, saturator-desorption and auxiliary system. The LBTB was Ar-H2 as carrier, and would on line monitor the tritium behavior of liquid blanket main loop, and test the tritium recovery efficiency whether or not reaching 90% after multi-column cascade.

Key words: Gas-liquid exchange, Bubbler, Tritium, Lithium alloys

摘要：

在气-液接触法提取液态锂合金中的氢的实验基础上，提出了以气-液交换柱为核心的提氚鼓泡器(LBTB)的概念设计。LBTB 主要由气体进样纯化器、气-液交换柱系统、饱和器－解吸器和辅助系统构成。LBTB以氩氢混合气为吹洗气，其主要功能是在线监测液态包层主回路中的氚行为，并检验多柱级联后的氚回收率是否可以达到90%的期望值。
