An investigation was conducted into minimising effective dose to members of the public in the unlikely event of an accident by optimising design parameters and site locations of future fusion power plants. This is part of our defence in depth approach for tritium safety that also includes significant work on the prevention of accidents. Calculat…

An initial safety analysis of a preliminary DEMO tritium fuel cycle has been undertaken using functional failure mode and effects analysis (FFMEA) to create accident scenarios for evaluation. A total of ten scenarios were developed and analysed based upon the current technology planned for the tritium fuel cycle. The findings indicate that the pote…
