RAMI analysis program design and research for CFETR (Chinese Fusion Engineering Testing Reactor) tokamak machine

Chinese Fusion Engineering Testing Reactor (CFETR) is a test reactor which shall be constructed by National Integration Design Group for Magnetic Confinement Fusion Reactor of China with an ambitious scientific and technological goal. The reactor has the equivalent scale compared with ITER, but has the complementary function to ITER. CFETR is a demonstration of long pulse or steady-state operation with duty cycle time not less than 0.3-0.5 and the full cycle of tritium self-sustained with TBR not less than 1.2. At the same time it will be exploring options for DEMO blanket and divertor with an easy changeable core by remote handling way. To be able to reach its scientific and technological objectives, as one of technical risks control methods, RAMI analysis need to be done during the hold lifetime of CFETR, from conception design to decommissioning. Base on stating of CFETR lifetime and preliminary operational programme, the RAMI analysis program and process are designed and discussed, it consists of five major steps: (1) functional analysis are performed, (2) calculating reliability block diagrams, (3) analyzing failure mode, effects and criticality analysis, (4) risk mitigation actions are taken to ensure every system is compatibility with RAMI objectives, (5) All the RAMI analysis are integrated as the final RAMI analysis reports to be reviewed in the system final design review. Along with the elements of the analysis the vacuum vessel (VV) system was performed to provide as examples, detailed showing how the CFETR RAMI analysis is carried out. CFETR RAMI analysis guidelines were designed and established, after constantly revised and improved these analysis criteria and programs will become the basis standards for CFETR RAMI analysis. Preliminary RAMI analysis of CFETR VV system was obtained, which will be updated with the VV system design progresses.
