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.
Senior students, academics and researchers in engineering disciples linked to nuclear and thermal engineering; nuclear or plasma physicians and engineers; Fusion reactor designers and developers; newly qualified engineers with particular interest and ambition in developing this advanced energy source
