Accident analysis and safety case development for the ITER Test Blanket System (TBS)

Jacobs is working with F4E to develop advanced fault studies models for the European ITER Test Blanket Systems, and to build a robust safety case to support the licensing of these advanced nuclear components. This experience of performing safety analysis and producing safety documentation that meets regulatory requirements can be applied to novel or complex systems in fusion, fission and non-nuclear environments.

Technology assets

• simulating a wide range of accident scenarios;
• identifying opportunities and making recommendations to strengthen the safety case;
• applications in Accident analysis and Safety Case Development for complex systems in fusion, fission and non-nuclear environments.
