Kyoto Fusioneering is pleased to announce that a new peer-reviewed manuscript, “Preliminary design of the self-cooled lithium-lead SCYLLA blanket for a spherical tokamak,” has been published in Fusion Engineering and Design (Elsevier) and is now available online. The paper presents the preliminary design studies of the SCYLLA concept — a self-cooled lithium-lead (Pb-Li) blanket system intended for use in tokamak devices. This research explores key engineering challenges related to thermal-hydraulics, structural performance, neutron shielding, and tritium breeding, offering early insights into how compact fusion power systems could incorporate liquid-metal blankets.
A dedicated team of highly skilled Kyoto Fusioneering engineers and technical specialists contributed to this work, demonstrating our deep expertise in blanket system design and our commitment to supporting fusion-engineering research at a global level.
