A 22.5 degree toroidal symmetrical torus sector 3 D neutronics model containing the updated design of the WCCB blanket modules was developed for the neutronics analyses. The tritium breeding capability, nuclear heating power, radiation damage,and decay heat were calculated by the MCNP and FISPACT code. The results show that the packing factor and^6 Li enrichment of the breeder should both be no less than 0.8 to ensure tritium self-sufficiency. The nuclear heating power of the blanket under 200 MW fusion power reaches201.23 MW. The displacement per atom per full power year(FPY) of the plasma-facing component and first wall reach 0.90 and 2.60, respectively. The peak H production rate reaches150.79 appm/FPY and the peak He production reaches 29.09 appm/FPY in blanket module #3.The total decay heat of the blanket modules is 2.64 MW at 1 s after shutdown and the average decay heat density can reach 11.09 kW m^(-3) at that time. The decay heat density of the blanket modules slowly decreases to lower than 10 W m^(-3) in more than ten years.展开更多
