class bluemira.codes.openmc.material.CellType(*args, **kwds)

Bases: enum.Enum

The five layers of the blanket as used in the neutronics simulation.

Variables

Surface: The surface layer of the first wall.
First wall: Typically made of tungsten or Eurofer
BreedingZone: Where tritium is bred
Manifold: The pipe works and supporting structure
VacuumVessel: The vacuum vessel keeping the plasma from mixing with outside air.
RadiationShield: The radiation shield surrounding the reactor, also called a bio shield.
