Descripción

International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility—DEMO Oriented Neutron Source (IFMIF-DONES) is a research facility primarily designed for the investigation and qualification of materials for future fusion reactors. To this end, IFMIF-DONES has been designed to achieve material damage levels equivalent to those expected in the walls of future fusion reactors. Beyond its primary mission, the intense neutron fields generated by the accelerator also offer significant opportunities for a wide range of complementary scientific and technological applications, whether related to fusion environments or to other research fields. This work presents an analysis of the neutron fluence rate obtained in the Test Cell area and in other complimentary experimental rooms. The sensitivity study was carried out by varying the number of modules installed in the Test Cell area and considering operating scenarios with one or two accelerators. So far, the modules considered in the Test Cell area are the High Flux Test Module (HFTM) and the Tritium Breeder Unit (TBU). The results provide valuable insights into the optimization of IFMIF-DONES operation and its capability to support a wide range of scientific and technological activities.
