Following important components update, and important methodological advances, the nuclear heat and the tritium production have been revisited, giving new estimations 10% higher than the previous evaluation for nuclear heat in both TBMs and to 15% higher for HCPB T production. This has an impact on the thermo-mechanical design of the TBM and the tritium handling. In addition, the Shutdown Dose Rates in the respective port interspace have been characterized in local approach. It shows a performance that could imply compatibility with planned in-situ maintenance activities when analysed in global approach, an improvement with respect to previous evaluations.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess3320 Tecnología nuclearartículoITERTest blanket moduleHelium cooled lead lithiumHelium cooled pebbles bedShutdown dose ratesDirect one-step method1873-7196
