Thermonuclear power plant with a reactor-torsatron

  • 1. Leningradskij Politekhnicheskij Inst. (USSR)

Description

Main physical preconditions of designing industrial thermonuclear power plant (TNPP) on the pure stationary reactor-torsatron base are reported. Power installation parameters, analysis of main systems and ma+n technical solutions adopted in designing TNPP with the reactor of the above type are presented. Some TNPP technical economical estimations with a reactor-torsatron are given, a TNPP approximate capital investment structure is determined. This consideration is based on a reactor in which burn up is maintained by dissipation of producing α particles. The following main reactor parameters are adopted: total thermal power-10060 MW, plasma radius 2,0 m, aspect ratio 19, plasma temperature 6,8 keV, plasma density 6x1020 m-3 collision parameter 2,0 m, axial magnetic field strength 5,4 T, total first wall thermal loading 4 MW/m2, β=3 %, number of superconducting winding periods 7. As plasma heating system the HF method of heating on ion-cyclotron frequency is chosen. The reactor modulation principle has been assumed as a basis of TNPP arrangement solutions
