4 Origin of Nuclear Fusion Energy Deuterium 17.6 MeV Neutron 80% of energy release (14.1 MeV) Used to breed tritium and close the DT fuel cycle Li + n T + He Tritium Helium 20% of energy release (3.5 MeV) Illustration from DOE brochure Deuterium and tritium is the easiest, attainable at lower plasma temperature, because it has the largest reaction rate and high Q value and hence the program is focused on the D-T Cycle P. Satyamurthy, December 21-23, 2009, IITK Ref: Prof. Abdou, UCLA
5 Advantages of Fusion Energy Sustainable energy source No emission of Greenhouse or other polluting gases No risk of a severe accident No long-lived radioactive waste Fusion energy can be used to produce electricity, hydrogen and for desalination.
6 Technology Issues in Fusion Energy Requires High temperatures (Millions of degrees) in a pure High Vacuum environment are required Technically complex and high capital cost reactors are necessary Still in R&D Stage

23 MHD Effects in TBM P. Satyamurthy, December 21-23, 2009, IITK
24 The Liquid Metal MHD in TBM Flow across the magnetic field induces current J in the fluid volume. This current interacts with the magnetic field to produce opposing Lorentz force (JxB o ) The current also produces induced magnetic field along x Due to All these effects: 1) Additional pressure drop 2) Flow modifications 2) Additional joule heating 3) Turbulent suppression or 4)Hartman effects can make the flow 2-D turbulent X- flow direction Y-Induced current Z- Applied Magnetic Field Walls perpendicular to B-Hartmann walls Walls parallel to B side walla
25 Equations Governing Flow in TBM 3-D MHD-CFD code is being developed 1) ANUPRAVAHA IIT-BARC Code (Prof. Eswaran,IITK) 2) M/s Fluidyne (Bangaluru)
26 Non-dimensional Parameters in MHD flow Interaction Parameter-Ratio of magnetic body force to inertial force Magnetic Reynolds number-ratio of induced magnetic field to applied field Hartmann Number Ratio of Magnetic body force to Viscous force This ratio decides the flow structure 3-D turbulence or 2-D turbulence or Laminar
