Plasma Fusion
Jay Kumar Shah Roll No : 12973 9, November, 2013
FACTS :
Confinement with B only. Lower density and high confinement time Idea of racetrack (8) shape introduced.
Advantages:
no current driven instability. Stationary plasma operation.
Disadvantages:
Complex designing. More coils produces more force so need a strong structure. LHD in JAPAN is based on this stell approach.
Produced x rays can be used for inertial confinement fusion Kink instability is a drawback
Fuel consists of mixture of Deuterium and tritium. Core density approx. 20 times the density and ignites at temperature 10^8 C. Rayleigh Taylor instabilities are likely to occur in the accelerating phase.
3 probe diagnostic
For n approx. 10^20 m^-3 and temperature of 100 keV, lawson criterion is not satisfied.
conclusion
We found that Tokamaks has better confinement time than stellarators. we need to find out the most efficient way to confine plasma with longer stability and least MHD instabilities.
