For the EU-DEMO Helium-Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB) concept, an indirect coupled design (ICD) with a molten salt (MS) loop as an intermediate heat transport and storage system (IHTS) is considered for the conceptual design phase. The IHTS with an energy storage decouples the primary heat transport system (PHTS) that undergoes pulse and dwell power cycles from the power conversion system (PCS), and thus can provide stable power to the turbine and grid. However, the maintenance of stable He and MS parameters during transitions from dwell to pulse and vice versa is challenging for the design of the MS loop, and the real performance of the helium–MS heat exchanger (He/MS HX) shall be verified. To investigate such components and conditions, a new R&D infrastructure HELOKA-US (Helium Loop Karlsruhe—Upgrade Storage) is under construction for the validation of prototypical components and the MS loop operation under stationary and transitional conditions. This paper provides the design features of Phase 1a of the project and the simulation results with EBSILON on the power generation phase. |
