One-Dimensional Heat Transfer Analysis For Thin Films With Applications In Inertial Fusion Energy
The x-rays from inertial fusion energy micro explosions deposited in a thin film will lead to a temperature rise dependent on penetration depth and time duration. This temperature rise is important to the study of surface tension driven flows and the surface quality of films for optics. A one-dimensional heat transfer analysis is used to estimate the film temperature rise for several different cases applicable to both final optical surfaces and renewable liquid first walls. Attenuating gas mixtures of xenon and krypton are considered to mitigate the deposition of x-ray energy.
