  • Abstract
    The Engineering Development and Demonstration (ED&D) program for the Accelerator Production of Tritium (APT) project provides critical data necessary for a plant built on schedule and within budget. The ED&D program is based on prioritized design data needs, and is driven by a formal systems-engineering approach. This paper describes the current role of the project for the U.S. Defense program, the ED&D process, the functional areas where ED&D activities are underway, key ED&D activities, and how the technical data from the ED&D program are used
