Magnetized plasma fusion ignition device and inertial magnetic confinement fusion method

Abstract

The invention discloses a magnetized plasma fusion ignition device and an inertial magnetic confinement fusion method. The method comprises a field-reversed configuration (FRC) forming and accelerated transmission system, a merging collision system, and an implosion and compression system. The forming and accelerated transmission system is distributed on two sides symmetrically. The merging collision system is in the middle and comprises a metal sleeve, a coil sleeving the outer side of the metal sleeve, and magnetic mirror coils on two ends. The implosion and compression system comprises the metal sleeve and electrodes, and the electrodes are connected with a pulse driving power source capacitor set. The method comprises the following steps: by means of FRTP technology, initial FRC plasmas are formed and head-to-head collision is induced; in the space, the plasmas are merged into high-temperature high-density magnetized plasma targets with higher density and temperature than a single FRC plasma before collision; and the external pulse driving power source discharges to drive implosion in a solid sleeve to conduct quasi-adiabatic compression of the high-temperature high-density magnetized plasma targets, so that the temperature and density of the plasma targets rise to meet fusion ignition conditions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the core technical components of a high-temperature magnetized plasma fusion energy reactor. The high-temperature magnetized plasma fusion energy reactor applies the principle of inertial magnetic confinement fusion, and uses a certain ratio of deuterium (D) and tritium (T) in a container as raw materials, through inertial confinement A hybrid application of magnetic confinement to realize thermonuclear reaction ignition, combustion and release of nuclear fusion energy, so as to deliver electric energy to external users. Background technique [0002] As we all know, the transmission of electric energy through thermonuclear fusion is the ultimate solution for human beings to solve energy problems and achieve sustainable development. Magnetic Confinement Fusion (MFE) and Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) belong to the two traditional approaches to fusion research. Both of these approaches have made great progress, but at the same...

[0004] Another representative device is the FRX-L series device of Los Alamos National Laboratory in the United States. This device uses theta discharge technology and magnetic flux compression to form a dynamic anti-field configuration. It has a high plasma density, but its stability Poor, and the life of the anti-field configuration is low, which cannot meet the requirements of implosion compression on the life of the magnetized plasma target
