Prague (Czech Republic). EcosimPro’s Group (EAG) took part in the 18th International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) Conference on Cryogenics, held 7–11 April 2025 in Prague. With a dedicated exhibition booth, the team presented CRYOLIB, the EcosimPro toolkit for modelling and simulating complex cryogenic systems. CRYOLIB was developped in collaboration with CERN for the modelling of the LHC, ATLAS and CMS facilities at CERN. The biennial Cryogenics Conference is the leading international forum for temperatures below 120 K (‑153 °C). This year’s technical programme covered three core tracks: A1 — Cryophysics & Cryo‑engineering A2 — Gas Liquefaction & Separation C1 — Cryobiology, Cryomedicine & Health Products More than 100 peer‑reviewed papers were presented during the three‑day event, highlighting advances in superconducting magnets, hydrogen liquefaction, large‑scale refrigeration plants, and biomedical cold‑chain technology. With EcosimPro / CRYOLIB EAG gives researchers and engineers a fast, physics‑based environment for designing the next generation of cryogenic equipment. EAG collaborations with CERN and other institutes (eg. ITER, Fermilab,etc.) prove that an integrated modelling platform for cryogenic simulation shortens development cycles and lowers risk. CRYOLIB extends the EcosimPro modelling tool with libraries for low‑temperature thermodynamics, two‑phase flow, heat transfer, and turbomachinery. It enables users to: Build 0‑D / 1‑D component networks or full‑plant digital twins. Switch seamlessly between steady‑state sizing and dynamic transient analyses. Export high‑fidelity models for control‑system HIL or mission‑profile optimisation. Some real‑time simulations of helium liquefiers, cryocoolers, etc. were done during the conference.

TRITIUM, hydrogen isotope transport simulation in EcosimPro
The modelling of hydrogen isotope transfer phenomena, in particular of tritium, is a historic milestone in nuclear fusion technology. Tritium is a reactant in the fusion reaction and therefore of great interest. It presents two major problems in operation, however: it is a radioactive isotope and it is highly permeable. As a result, it is especially important to monitor and control it. Now, a hydrogen isotope transport simulation tool, called TRITIUM, has been developed for this purpose. The result of a collaborative effort between Empresarios Agrupados Internacional (EAI)/CIEMAT and directed and financed by Fusion For Energy (F4E, European Domestic Agency for the Development of Fusion and ITER), TRITIUM consists of a set of libraries created using the EcosimPro simulation platform developed by Empresarios Agrupados.

The 15th International Symposium on Fusion Nuclear Technology (ISFNT-15).
From September 10th to 15th, the 15th International Symposium on Fusion Nuclear Technology took place in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The ISFNT is one of the main international events for the nuclear fusion field. The symposium focuses on both near-term and long-term fusion devices and reactor technologies, with special attention to science, engineering, experiments, facilities, modelling, analysis, design, and safety. At this symposium, a poster was presented showcasing the capability of EcosimPro and the TRITIUM toolkit for modelling tritium transport, specifically a Water-Cooled Lithium Lead Test Blanket Module (WCLL TBM). TRITIUM toolkit contains first-principles models of the various terms involved in tritium transport such as: generation, advection, chemical reactions, permeation, diffusion, trapping, recombination and dissociation. Together with the TBM concept, the most relevant ancillary systems are considered as well. Aiming at having a global perspective of tritium behaviour all over the TBS at any time, the following set of significant variables are computed: tritium inventory, permeation rates and recovery.
