Abstract

Irradiation damage to the beam window in the concept of 800MWth accelerator-driven system is evaluated. Heat produced in the window is also evaluated. Transport of proton and neutron up to 3.0 GeV is calculated by both PHITS that is the Monte Carlo code for particles and heavy ions and TWODANT that is two-dimensional deterministic transport code. The beam window is irradiated at the center of the accelerator-driven system with 20 MW proton beam power and neutron from the core during 300 full power days. Heat, displacement per atom, production rate of hydrogen and helium isotopes, and neutron and proton fields are estimated, assuming the Gaussian and flat beam profiles.
