Abstract

The thermodynamics of the platform and liquidity of liquid Li are analyzed by ANSYS code. By adding thermal shield and using He cooling in the inner of vacuum chamber, the vacuum chamber temperature can be controlled below 180℃ when the limiter operation temperature heats up to 350℃. By temperature analysis of intersection of Li pipeline and vacuum flange, the water-cooling can effectively control the temperature of the flange knife-edge position. According to the requirement of Li flow rate~2m³·h^-1, the friction head loss and local resistance loss in pipe respectively are estimated and the pressure head of electromagnetic pump is 14.2m. According to the analysis results, a set of flowing liquid Li loop system was built and the relevant experiment was carried out. The preliminary experiment results show that liquid Li could smoothly flow in the loop.
