  • Abstract
    A preliminary design investigation was conducted for a low-activation D-T fusion power reactor blanket employing SiC as the structure and liquid lead-lithium alloy as the breeder/coolant. Developmental issues such as SiC and Pb-Li compatibility and bismuth removal from Pb-Li are outlined and discussed
