| Research Abstract |
In the present development of fusion energy, deuterium and tritium are the fuel. Since the tritium is a radionuclide, tritium doesn't exist as the natural resources. That is why securing the initial tritium is one of the critical issues. Here, we proposed a commissioning method without the initial tritium load in a fusion reactor, in which deuterium-deuterium fusion reaction is utilized to breed the tritium, step by step. The operation method for that commissioning method with the initial tritium load is investigated in detail, and its optimization is discussed to shorten the commissioning period and to contribute the solution of the critical issue of securing the initial tritium.
