First wall fluxes in a theta pinch feasibility/D-T experiment

Conference ·
OSTI ID:4344700
From surface effects in controlled thermonuclear fusion devices and reactors meeting; Argonne. Illinois, USA (10 Jan 1974). The Physics Test Reactor (PTR) which will be designed to first demonstrate scientific feasibility and later be converted to handle tritium for D-T burning experiments is briefly discussed. First wall flux calculations are described that considered the implosion heating physics and a thermonuclear burn calculation specifying the time history of neutron and bremsstrahlung production and plasma internal energy.
