Abstract

To solve the problem of emitted neutron attenuation of lithium target of the transportable accelerator-driven neutron source(TANS)

the edge-cooling target structure in which the cooling water circulates through a channel along the side of substrate

was proposed

and its performance was studied such as irradiation damage

cooling effect

and quality of emitted neutron. Vanadium interlayer was introduced in the target structure

and proton effect on target structural materials was tentatively analyzed from perspectives of hydrogen diffusion and irradiation damage. Based on the software using finite element method

COMSOL Multiphysics

conjugate heat transfer models under proton beams with different distributions were built for the evaluation of lithium target temperature. The accuracy of simulation result was verified by cooling experiment. The neutron yields of target structures in forward direction were compared according to calculation using the Monte Carlo method. And the induced radioactivity of edge-cooling target structure was evaluated. The results showed that the vanadium interlayer could effectively promote the process of hydrogen diffusion and absorption

and reduce the influence of hydrogen embrittlement on copper substrate. The maximum temperature of lithium target under 250 W proton beam in Gaussian distribution with a radius greater than 0.75 cm was predicted to be below 140 ℃ for edge-cooling target structure

and simulation results were more conservative than the experimental results. The edge-cooling target structure had a less reduction on neutron yield in forward direction

and the advantage was about 10%. On the basis of efficient cooling

the edge-cooling target structure can increase the neutron yield in forward direction

and has the ability of long life and reliable operation on TANS. Meanwhile

this study can provide reference for the related research of target structure.
