INTRODUCTION
Combination of high-power neutron sources with
systems containing nuclear fuel, or so called hybrid sys-
tems, are being researched in various countries [1 - 4].
The neutrons excess in such systems can be used for the
most of long-living radionuclides transformation into
isotopes with far less decay times. In addition the sub-
critical condition in such hybrid systems also provides
advantages from safety standpoint in comparison with
regular critical nuclear reactors. A proton accelerator
combined with a target can possibly be considered as
the required neutron source. The development of a hy-
brid system requires additional research of all system
components (accelerator, target, reactor etc.).
Nowadays projects of such hybrid systems are being
considered with proton and deuteron beams accelerated
mostly up to 1 to 2 GeV (for ex. [5 - 7]). This tendency
is explained by the fact that the nuclear waste transmu-
tation is considered to be the primary problem, although
energy production is also considered. On the other hand,
the development of a compact power plant with a ther-
mal power output of 200…400 MW, which could be the
basis of a safe nuclear power plant or a complex for the
transmutation of long-living radioactive isotopes, would
also be an interesting idea. Such power plant doesn't
require a large accelerator and huge investment and can
be created using modern accelerator and reactor tech-
nologies. Also accelerator parameters optimization is
carried out [8 - 12] in order to improve nowadays accel-
erator characteristics.
1. NEUTRON GENERATION IN TARGETS
OF DIFFERENT MATERIALS
The ADS target should provide the maximum neu-
tron yield being irradiated by the charged particles
beam.
The spallation neutrons intensity is specified by the
following expression:
,0
e
mI
S p=
where pI − the accelerator average current; 0m − neu-
tron yield (the average number of neutrons generated in
the target by one accelerated charged particle); e − the
charge of an accelerated particle.
The neutron yield depends on the charged particles
beam characteristics, target composition and sizes.
It should be noted that amount of experimental data
on neutron yield from targets irradiated by
200…400 MeV proton beam is much less than for tar-
gets irradiated by 0.6…1 GeV proton beams [13]. For
neutron yield calculation the Geant 4.10 with enabled
ENDF cross-section libraries was used. The verification
results of QGSP_BIC_HP library [14] physical models
are presented in the Table 1.

The neutron generating targets can conditionally be
divided into two categories [16]: non-fissile (performed
on the material which doesn’t fission by neutrons) and
fissile (performed on the fissile neutron generating ma-
terials).
In fissile targets the neutron yield is higher than in
non-fissile, however the heat generation in them is sig-
nificantly higher than in non-fissile targets: the fissile
isotopes fission process makes an additional contribu-
tion to the sum energy release and neutron generation.
For non-fissile ADS targets could be used:
• high-melting targets of tungsten, tantalum, capa-
ble to carry high local energy releases;
• liquid metal (lead and lead-bismuth) targets, in
which structural material changes under irradia-
tion are absent.
For fissile ADS targets uranium based targets with
different fuel compositions are considered.
In ADS with targets of non-fissile materials the ex-
ternal neutron source intensity is specified by the spalla-
tion neutrons leakage from the target surface. For small
sized targets a significant part of secondary particles
that can induce nuclear fissions leave the target. For
large sized − radioactive capture of neutrons by the tar-
get plays an important role (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1. Neutron yield from non-fissile (W, Ta (a);
Bi,Pb,Bi+Pb (b)) cylindrical target surface with infinite
length in dependence of its radius (Ep= 300 МeV)
Because of an anisotropy of non-elastic proton scat-
tering the target length should in several times be great-
er than its radius, meanwhile the L value has weak in-
fluence on neutron yield if the following condition
L>D>λin is fulfilled. A great part of neutron leakage
comes from the target face from the side of beam fall-
ing. So the neutron yield is maximal with some beam
entry point deepening [17]. Beam entry point deepening
also help to decrease the negative radiation effects on
accelerator elements and the beam output facility.
The cylindrical targets optimal sizes irradiated by
300 MeV proton beam are presented in the Table 2.The
neutron yield of these targets with proton
200…400 МeV is presented in Fig. 2.

In ADS with non-fissile targets the initial neutrons
born in spallation reactions are multiplied because of the
fission process in the target.
Calculation results of the total neutrons yield from
238U cylindrical targets of different radiuses are present-
ed in Fig. 3. As the Fig. 3 indicates the total neutrons
yield reaches the value 13 n/p in uranium target with an
optimal radius r = 30 cm (Ep=300 MeV).

A proton accelerator with the following characteris-
tics: Ep = 300 МeV, Ip = 5 mA is proposed to be used
for ADS with thermal power 200…400 МW. In this
case the neutrons source intensity from tantalum target
is
S0 ≈ 1017 n/s, and from uranium target – S0 ≈ 4⋅1017 n/s.
2. PRINCIPAL DESIGN
CHARACTERISTICS FOR ADS TARGET
Two target alternatives for ADS with thermal power
200…400 МW are considered in this paper.
The construction with fuel elements is considered as
a fissile target (Fig. 4) [18].
Fig. 4. Neutrons generating target:
1, 2, 3 – vessel with channels for coolant;
4 – vacuum ion guide; 5 – irradiated elements;
6, 7 – shells of irradiated element; 8 – fissile material;
9 – coolant channel; 10 – throttle
The target shell consists of three coaxial shells. The
inner shell is hermetically sealed onto the beam canal.
The inner shell also contains the irradiated tubes. Thus,
the inner part of the shell, which is connected to the
beam canal, is sealed and isolated from the coolant and
contains vacuum/evacuated. Heat withdrawal from the
target located inside the reactor is fulfilled via reactor
coolant (Helium). The outer and middle shells of the
target serve as a circulation system for the coolant. The
middle shell has holes in its side to which all the irradi-
ated tubes of the inner shell are connected individually.
Empty spaces between the inner and the middle shell,
and the middle and the outer shell form the pressure and
draining manifolds for the coolant of the neutron target.
Each irradiated element consists of two thin coaxial
tubes. Between these tubes lies the neutron producing
material. This design of the irradiated elements allows
any form of neutron producing material to be used
(powder, liquid, tablet etc.) and lowers the requirement
for its radiation and thermal resistance.
An orifice is installed into the inner tubes of every
irradiated element to help maintain a defined flow of the
coolant. Rows of irradiated tubes are placed in layers
with each layer containing tubes facing one direction.
This stiffens the inner shell, which is constantly under
external pressure from the coolant. The density and
composition of the neutron material may vary from lay-
er to layer to help maintain a required rate of neutron
generation along the length of the target.
The principle design of non-fissile neutron generat-
ing target is presented in the Fig. 5.
3. ENERGY RELEASE IN THE ADS TARGET
Energy release in the ADS target, situated in the re-
actor core is conditioned as straight by irradiation by
high-energy charged particles, as by heat generation
because of neutron and gamma radiation in the reactor
core.
Fig. 5. Neutrons generating target design:
1 – beam guid; 2 – the target main array; 3 – tube
plate; 4 – protection screens; 5 – pressure header shell;
6 – target flange; 7 – outer shell; 8 – cooling channels;
9 – wire coiling; 10 – tube; 11 – tube core
In the general case heat generation in the target in-
duced by charged particles beam is specified by charged
particles ionization losses (charged particles electro-
magnetic interactions with the matter), cascade hadron
inelastic interactions (neutrons, protons, π-mesons) with
the target matter nucleus, target matter nucleus fission
process. In principle, energy release in the target can
exceed the energy of the proton beam coming from the
accelerator because of energy, released in fission and
elementary particles secession from the nucleus. In or-
der to evaluate the energy release value in the target
irradiated by proton beam in this paper we use some
calculation data from [15, 19] and experimental data
from [20].
As follows from the data presented in [15] the heat
generation power level, released in the target irradiated
by proton beam (QP), is connected with beam power NP
(with Ep = 400 МeV):
for tantalum QP = 0.7 Np;
for uranium QP = 1.2 Np,
where Np = Ep Ip, МeV.
The energy release in the target irradiated by narrow
charged particles beam has significant space irregularity

qp(r, z). Specific energy release is maximal along the
beam entrance line qp0(z), (r= 0, z – coordinate in the
target counted from the beam entrance point, сm). In
[20] from the experimental data analysis the following
expression was obtained:
( ) ( )inpP zqzq λ/43.1exp0
00 −= .
The maximal specific energy release 0
0Pq is located
in the beam entrance point. Some calculation results are
presented in [19], from which it follows that the maxi-
mal volume heat intensity 0
0Pq in uranium target,
E = 500 МeV and the average proton current density in
the beam entrance point of the target 0.01 mА/сm2
reaches the value up to 100 МW/m3. The acceptable
heat intensity in the target is conditioned by the maxi-
mal allowable target matter temperature, which is de-
fined within thermal design.
Radiation heat generation value in the target, situat-
ed inside the reactor core, is specified the same way as
heat generation value in the structural materials of the
reactor core [21].
Specific energy release conditioned by gamma ra-
diation is calculated using the following formula:
( ) ( ) ( )∫ ⋅Φ=
TE
a dEErErq γγγγ µ
, ,
where γΦ is space-energy gamma-radiation flux densi-
ty distribution;
Taµ – energy of gamma-radiation linear absorption
coefficient in the target material.
Integral energy release value in the target condi-
tioned by gamma radiation is defined by the formula:
( )dVrqQ
V
∫=
γγ .
Specific energy release, conditioned by neutron
slowdown in the target matter is described by this for-
mula:

,
where ξ – neutron average logarithmic energy loss in
elastic scattering process; SΣ – macroscopic scattering
cross-section; nΦ – space-energy neutron flux density
distribution.
Integral energy release value conditioned by the neu-
tron slowdown process is defined by the formula:
( ) .n n

Let us consider the thermal condition of the non-
fissile tantalum target (see Fig. 5), irradiated by the pro-
ton beam with energy Ep = 400 МeV and average cur-
rent Ip=5 mА as an example. Calculations were carried
out for ADS based on the gas-cooled reactor with ther-
mal power level 200 and 400 МW. The total energy
release power level in the tantalum target is about
1.46 МW, though the energy release power level, condi-
tioned by protons is about 1.4 МW, energy release pow-
er level, conditioned by gamma radiation is about
0.06 МW, also energy release conditioned by the neu-
tron slowdown process can be neglected. The distribu-
tion of specific energy release power level along the
target axis is presented in the Fig. 6 [22].
The target embodiment allows to consider it as a
heat generating array of cylindrical shape, penetrated by
463 axial cooling channels. These channels are treated
as Fiels-tubes, situated in the triangle lattice (Fig. 7).
The target is cooled by the reactor primary coolant
circuit, so the gas coolant (Helium) pressure in the tar-
get is about Р = 10 МPa, and the temperature in the tar-
get entrance point 300°С (before the moment when the
coolant reaches the target, it cools structural compo-
nentry in the reactor). The target coolant (Helium) tem-
perature is assumed to reach 600°С in the output. This
fact allows to provide quite high mechanical properties
in structural materials, influenced by coolant pressure
(degasified channel, bringing particle beam to the tar-
get).

Some statements follow from the target thermal cal-
culations performed via ANSYS (Figs. 8, 9):
– target material temperature along the coolant cir-
cuit doesn’t exceed 900°С;
– maximal temperature of target material reaches
2000°С in the target central cell bottom.

CONCLUSIONS
Non-fissile materials, made of high-melting metals
(Ta or W), can be used as targets for ADS with power
level 200…400 МW and the following proton beam
characteristics: Ep = 200…400 МeV, Ip=5 mА. The neu-
tron generation intensity in such targets can reach S0 ≈
1017 n/s. Also fissile targets, performed as a fuel elements
set, are good as well for ADS purposes. The total neutron
generation intensity in them is about S0 ≈ 4·1017 n/s.
