Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif générateur d'énergie mettant en oeuvre des réactions de fusion. L'appareil comprend un coeur 2 de fusion ayant une configuration toroïdale et destiné à confiner un plasma de densité élevée. Le coeur peut être retiré des deux régions 4a et 4b d'un dispositif protecteur. Le déclenchement de réaction thermonucléaire est obtenu par introduction d'un gaz neutre capable de présenter une réaction de fusion, dans le plasma, de manière réglée afin que le chauffage par les particules chargées produites par la réaction de fusion assure le bouclage du dispositif à un régime à densité et température élevées. Application aux centrales à réacteur à fusion thermonucléaire.The invention relates to an energy-generating device implementing fusion reactions. The apparatus comprises a melting core 2 having a toroidal configuration and intended to confine a high density plasma. The heart can be removed from both regions 4a and 4b of a protective device. The initiation of a thermonuclear reaction is obtained by introducing an inert gas capable of presenting a fusion reaction, into the plasma, in a controlled manner so that the heating by the charged particles produced by the fusion reaction ensures the looping of the device at a regime at high density and temperature. Application to thermonuclear fusion reactor power stations.
