Abstract
This report summarizes the study and the design of the window type target for the
Energy Amplifier Demonstration Facility (EADF) [1]. The behaviour of the system in
different condition has been analysed though extensive CFD simulations performed
with the Star-CD commercial code [2].
The target represents one of the main technological problems related not only to the
design of the EADF, but to all High Power Spallation Sources (HPSS) currently under
study or in construction world-wide [4],[5].
Different configurations of the spallation EADF target are possible. Advantages and
disadvantages of the different options are discussed elsewhere [6] and they are
studied and analysed separately.
The target device studied in this report is a window type target, cooled by diathermic
oil in an independent loop. This target configuration is completely independent from
the core operating conditions and gives advantages in terms of flexibility in the
operation.
The result of this report is a set of design data and constraints to take into account
while engineering the spallation target.
