TL;DR: In this paper, three options of fusion DEMO plant are proposed characterized by functions of the center solenoid (CS), and the prime option uses a downsized CS, which does not provide sufficient V-s for plasma current ramp-up but supplies enough coil current for plasma shaping.

Search for reality of solid breeder blanket for DEMO
Kenji Tobita,Hiroyasu Utoh,C. Liu,Hiroyasu Tanigawa,Daigo Tsuru,Mikio Enoeda,T. Yoshida,Nobuyuki Asakura +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a water-cooled blanket with solid breeding materials of Li ceramics (Li 4 SiO 4, Li 2 TiO 3 and Li 2 ZrO 3 ) and Be multipliers (Be and Be 12 Ti) was considered for a tokamak fusion DEMO reactor with the fusion output of 2.95 GW.
