Title:

Characteristics of D-^3He Fueled FRC Reactor: ARTEMIS-L

Date of publication:

Nov. 1993

Key words:

D-^3He Fusion, Fusion Power Plant, FRC

Abstract:

The paper introduces briefly the scenario and discuss the attractive characteristics of D-^3He fueled commercial fusion reactor ARTEMIS-L . By using favorable characteristics of a field-reversed configuration, .the fusion plasma of ARTEMIS-L is compact and its beta-value is extremely high. One find consequently a possibility of constructing an economical fusion power power plant on this prospect..The life of the structural materials is sound during the full reactor life (30 years) and the safety of the reactor is intrinsic to D-^3He fuels. The amount of disposed materials is rather small and the level of these intruder dose is so low that the plant appears to be acceptable in view of the environment.
