title = "Overview of requirements and design integration for the ITER EU Test Blanket Systems instrumentation",
abstract = "The ITER project aims at building a fusion device with the general goal of demonstrating the scientific and technical feasibility of fusion power. The testing of Tritium Breeder Blanket concepts is one of the ITER missions and has been recognized as an essential milestone in the development of a future fusion reactor ensuring tritium self-sufficiency, extraction of high grade heat and electricity production. Europe is currently developing two reference breeder blankets concepts for DEMO reactor specifications that will be tested in ITER under the form of Test Blanket Modules (TBMs): the Helium-Cooled Lithium-Lead (HCLL) concept and the Helium-Cooled Pebble-Bed (HCPB) concept. The strategy for the development of the instrumentation of the HCLL and HCPB Test Blanket Systems, which include the TBMs and their Ancillary Systems, is briefly recalled in this paper, along with the overview of the requirements coming from the harsh operational environment and the main challenges related to the integration with the complex design of the TBS components.",
