Physics modeling of tandem mirror devices with high-field test cell inserts

Description: Recently developed plasma physics models of tandem mirror operation with a high-field technology test cell insert in the central cell are described in detail. These models have been incorporated in the TMRBAR tandem mirror reactor physics code. Results of a benchmark case for the code models against previous analysis of the MFTF - ..cap alpha.. /sup +/ T configuration are given. A brief users guide to the new TMRBAR with the test cell models is also presented. Some description of the applicatio… more

Scoping studies of vapor behavior during a severe accident in a metal-fueled reactor

Description: Scoping calculations have been performed examining the consequences of fuel melting and pin failures for a reactivity-insertion type accident in a sodium-cooled, pool-type reactor fueled with a metal alloy fuel. The principal gas and vapor species released are shown to be Xe, Cs,and bond sodium contained within the fuel porosity. Fuel vapor pressure is insignificant, and there is no energetic fuel-coolant interaction for the conditions considered. Condensation of sodium vapor as it expands into… more

Concept for the intrinsic dielectric strength of electrical insulation materials

Description: A concept is described for a possible definition of the intrinsic dielectric strength of insulating materials, which can be considered as a fundamental material property similar to other material properties, such as Young's modulus, index of refraction, and expansion coefficients. The events leading to the recognition of this property are reported, and the property is defined. This intrinsic dielectric strength concept should facilitate interpretation of results from accelerated and/or natural … more

Progress in inertial fusion at LLNL

Description: Experiments at LLNL using the 10 TW Novette laser have led to significantly increased understanding of laser/plasma coupling. Tests using 1.06 ..mu..m, 0.53 ..mu..m and 0.26 ..mu..m light have shown increased light absorption, increased efficiency of conversion to x-rays, and decreased production of suprathermal electrons as the wavelength of the incident light decreases. The data indicate that stimulated Raman scattering is the source of the excessive hot electrons and that the effect can be c… more

Flow characteristics of the Cascade granular blanket

Description: Analysis of a single granule on a rotating cone shows that for the 35/sup 0/ half-angle, double-cone-shaped Cascade chamber, blanket granules will stay against the chamber wall if the rotational speed is 50 rpm or greater. The granules move axially down the wall with a slight (5-mm or less) sinusoidal oscillation in the circumferential direction. Granule chute-flow experiments confirm that two-layered flow can be obtained when the chute is inclined slightly above the granular material angle of … more

Development of the cascade inertial-confinement-fusion reactor

Description: Cascade, originally conceived as a football-shaped, steel-walled reactor containing a Li/sub 2/O granule blanket, is now envisaged as a double-cone-shaped reactor containing a two-layered (three-zone) flowing blanket of BeO and LiAlO/sub 2/ granules. Average blanket exit temperature is 1670/sup 0/K and gross plant efficiency (net thermal conversion efficiency) using a Brayton cycle is 55%. The reactor has a low-activation SiC-tiled wall. It rotates at 50 rpm, and the granules are transported to… more
