Abstract
Detailed three-dimensional neutronics analysis has been performed for ITER with the U.S. solid breeder blanket utilizing sintered product materials for both the breeder and multiplier. The overall tritium breeding ratio is 0.81 with two outboard breeder zones and 0.89 for the three outboard breeder zone design option. The total reactor thermal power is 1150 MW in the technology phase.Keywords
