Impact of trapping on tritium self-sufficiency and tritium inventories in fusion power plant fuel cycles by Samuele Meschini, Rémi Delaporte-Mathurin, George R. Tynan, Sara E. Ferry

“…While state-of-the-art fuel cycle models offer valuable insights into the necessary design parameters for attaining tritium self-sufficiency, none of these models currently consider the impact of tritium trapping within fuel cycle components. However, detailed analysis of individual components reveals that substantial amounts of tritium can be trapped within the first wall, divertors, and breeding blanket systems, suggesting that tritium trapping may significantly influence the FPP ability to achieve self-sufficiency. …”
