Fundamentals of Magnetic Thermonuclear Reactor Design is a comprehensive resource on fusion technology and energy systems written by renowned scientists and engineers from the Russian nuclear industry. It brings together a wealth of invaluable experience and knowledge on controlled thermonuclear fusion (CTF) facilities with magnetic plasma confinement – from the first semi-commercial tokamak T-3, to the multi-billion international experimental thermonuclear reactor ITER, now in construction in France. As the INTOR and ITER projects have made an immense contribution in the past few decades, this book focuses on its practical engineering aspects and the basics of technical physics and electrical engineering.
Users will gain an understanding of the key ratios between plasma and technical parameters, design streamlining algorithms and engineering solutions.
- Written by a team of qualified experts who have been involved in the design of thermonuclear reactors for over 50 years
- Outlines the most important features of the ITER project in France which is building the largest tokamak, including the design, material selection, safety and economic considerations
- Includes data on how to design magnetic fusion reactors using CAD tools, along with relevant regulatory documents
