Under the US Fusion Nuclear Science and Technology Development program, we have selected the Dual Coolant Lead Lithium concept (DCLL) as a reference blanket, which has the potential to be a high performance DEMO blanket design with a projected thermal efficiency of >40%. Reduced activation ferritic/martensitic (RAF/M) steel is used as the structural material. The self-cooled breeder PbLi is circulated for power conversion and for tritium breeding. A SiC-based flow channel insert (FCI) is used as a means for magnetohydrodynamic pressure drop reduction from the circulating liquid PbLi and as a thermal insulator to separate the high-temperature PbLi (~700°C) from the helium-cooled RAF/M steel structure. We are making progress on related R&D needs to address critical Fusion Nuclear Science and Facility (FNSF) and DEMO blanket development issues. While performing the function as the Interface Coordinator for the DCLL blanket concept, we were developing the mechanical design and performing neutronics, structural and thermal hydraulics analyses of the DCLL TBM module. We estimated the necessary ancillary equipment that will be needed at the ITER site, and a detailed safety impact report was prepared. This provided additional understanding of the DCLL blanket concept in preparation for the FNSF and DEMO. This paper is a summary report on the progress of the DCLL TBM design and R&D for the DCLL blanket concept.
