Fusion Enery Two Different Ways to Fusion Lawson Criterion:nx≥3.9xl0'(s/mm),T约为l0K。 must be achieved Temperature must be around T=6...15 eV Two ways to fulfil Lawson criterion: (1)First solution (magnetically confined plasmas):increase confinement time (1014~1016/cm3,0.01~1s) (2)Other solution (inertial confinement fusion -ICF): increase density of fusion plasma(1023/cm3,ns)
Fusion Enery • Lawson Criterion: must be achieved • Temperature must be around T = 6 ... 15 eV • Two ways to fulfil Lawson criterion: (1) First solution (magnetically confined plasmas): increase confinement time (1014～1016/cm3 , 0.01～1s) (2) Other solution (inertial confinement fusion - ICF): increase density of fusion plasma (1023/cm3 , ns) Two Different Ways to Fusion 要实现受控核聚变，必须满足两个基本条件，一是必须将燃料加热到很高的热核反应 温度；二是，必须在足够时间长时间内将高温高密度等离子体约束在一起。Lawson 判据限 定了实现核聚变的具体条件，即受约束的等离子体必须达到一定的密度 n 、温度 T 及约束 时间 。对氘氚反应， 3.9 10 ( / ) 11 3 n s mm ，T 约为 K 8 10
