  • Abstract
    Detailed profiles of nuclear heating and radiation damage parameters were determined in ITER blanket modules at different poloidal locations. The results indicate that the nuclear parameters are sensitive to the configuration and material composition with enhanced steel heating and helium production in regions with large water content.
