Deliverables
Synthesis and characterisation of PuO2 pellets with representative microstructure. (opens in new window)
The deliverable describes development of the Pu-238 pellet synthesis process and the characterisation results of the produced pellets with representative microstructure.
Boundary conditions for Np target fabrication (opens in new window)Investigation on the conversion routes with suitable chemical and physical properties for Np-237 target production.
Safety assessment, licensing and regulation (opens in new window)The deliverable will describe the results of the review and analysis of the existing safety documentation, as well as a roadmap for the required testing and safety analyses, and a description of the path forward towards future innovation according to the equivalent safety principle.
Report on Dissemination, Communication and Exploitation activities (opens in new window)Report on Dissemination Communication and Exploitation activities
Encapsulation using Laser welding (opens in new window)The deliverable describes the development of a Laser welding methodology for high refractory materials pellet encapsulation and the production and characterisation of an encapsulation prototype.
Exploitation - Final report and outlook for future valorisation (including Results' Ownership List) (opens in new window)Exploitation – Final report and outlook for future valorisation (including Results’ Ownership List)
Assessment of the RPS operating point and of its preliminary design (opens in new window)This deliverable will present an assessment of the performance of the Stirling engine and preliminary assessment of this operating in normal conditions (steady-state and starting)
State of the art on energy converters (opens in new window)Literature survey on evaluating various type of energy converter available in the power range of a RTG including advantages and drawbacks in terms of performance, reliability, economics, etc.
Detailed plan for exploitation, dissemination and communication. (opens in new window)Detailed plan for exploitation dissemination and communication
Assessment that the doses in some relevant locations due to the 238Pu radioactive source meet the safety criteria for the operators working in proximity of the RPS. If necessary, this is achieved by designing a shield.Estimation of the doses rates in the sensitive components. If the consequent lifetimes are too short, a shield will be defined (single material or multilayer) with the aim of achieving acceptable lifetimes of the components, respecting the weight constraints.
Thermal engineering (opens in new window)3D ANSYS CFX model including mesh and 3D temperature field for the conceptual design CAD modelA technical report according Tractebel Standards summarising the analyses and justifying the design choices
