Extended Abstract

This work evaluates the use of different spallation-generated neutron sources in a hybrid ADS-fission based on the SEALER reactor to study the transmutation of nuclear waste. Five targets (Lead, Pb-Bi Alloy, Mercury, Tungsten and Natural Uranium) irradiated by 1 GeV protons were simulated, and the neutron spectra generated were inserted into the reactor model. The SEALER reactor was modified...
25380. Core Technologies in Fusion–Fission Hybrids: Design and Thermal Hydraulic Studies of Divertor Systems
Extended Abstract

Fusion–fission hybrid reactors provide a promising pathway toward sustainable nuclear energy by combining fusion’s high neutron flux with fission’s energy multiplication and fuel breeding potential. They are particularly suited for transmuting long-lived waste and producing fissile fuel, while bridging the gap toward full fusion power [1, 2]. A key component in such systems is the divertor,...
