Fusion Energy Technology R&D Priorities

About this book

Fusion Energy Technology R&D Priorities examines the current landscape of fusion technology. With a strong focus on technological advances, the book considers technical challenges and priorities to further the development of fusion research.Beginning with an introduction to fusion technology research and development, the book then presents an overview of basic magnetic fusion concepts, experimental facilities, and fusion materials R&D. Subsequent chapters then take a deep dive into capabilities of potential neutron sources for materials testing, plasma facing components, and blanket and tritium systems. Vacuum vessels and shields, and superconducting magnets are also highlighted, before concluding with modelling techniques, computational tools, safety features, and environmental considerations.Presenting the most advanced developments in nuclear fusion R&D, this is an essential read for researchers and engineers interested in nuclear energy and fusion technology.- Presents the latest advances and developments in fusion science and technology- Outlines the R&D priorities and critical issues that are foundational to the further development of fusion energy technologies- Identifies technical fusion challenges and considers future perspectives- Reviews the present-day status of essential R&D programs that support fusion for energy
