Dynamics of ablation plumes produced by fusion products in laser fusion liquid wall chamber
نویسنده
چکیده
An integrated ablation simulation code DECORE ( DEsign COde for REactor ) has been developed to analyze characteristics of plumes produced by ablation, and to clarify the ability of the chamber clearance. Characteristics of a plume produced by ablation in liquid wall chamber of KOYO-fast have been analyzed. A plume produced by ablation moves with velocities of a few km/s. Formation of clusters in a plume with hydrodynamic motion is carried out. Radius of clusters in a plume in liquid wall chamber of KOYO-fast is mainly from 25 nm to 35 nm.

Chamber wall response to target implosion in inertial fusion reactors: new and critical assessments
The chamber walls in inertial fusion energy (IFE) reactors are exposed to harsh conditions following each target implosion. Key issues of the cyclic IFE operation include intense photon and ion deposition, wall thermal and hydrodynamic evolution, wall erosion and fatigue lifetime, and chamber clearing and evacuation to ensure desirable conditions prior to next target implosion. Several methods ...

In recent years, many different plans have been considered to use the nuclear energy gained from inertial confinement fusion (ICF) as attempts to obtain high energy efficiencies. In conventional ICF methods, a small amount (about mg) of the deuterium–tritium compound is confined in a small spherical chamber of a few millimeters in radius and compressed by laser or heavy ion beams with powers in...

متن کاملEFFECT OF FUSION REACTION PRODUCTS HEATING ON THE VOLUME IGNITION OF DT AND D3He FUEL PELLETS
Laser fusion simulations are carried out for DT and D- He pellets by using a hydrodynamic code including heating from all charged reaction products and neutrons. It is shown that the inclusion of the side reactions and heating from all reaction products in the fuel pellets have an appreciable effect on the plasma temperature, the ICF drive energy requirement, fusion gain and the ignition c...
