Abstract
Computational fluid dynamics simulations have demonstrated flow problems within the helium flow path in the current US DCLL ITER test blanket module design. New geometry for the helium flow path has been designed that will improve flow evenness and simplify the overall helium flow path within the test blanket module while maintaining the overall test blanket module geometry. Global changes to the test blanket module geometry can be implemented based on these improvements.
