Geometrical arrangements for locating the large number of beamlets used in high-energy laser fusion facilities around a target chamber, suitable for the 1- to 2-MJ Phebus upgrade facility, are compared. The beamlets are clustered together and enter t

The use of a 1-kg solid-lithium x-ray and debris shield around each fusion fuel pellet prevents vaporization of, and destructive shock waves in, the Cascade blanket granules thereby increasing their lifetime. The shield vaporizes as it absorbs energy

We describe a vacuum system for the HYLIFE and Cascade inertial‐confinement‐fusion reactor concepts that consists of an axial‐flow compressor followed by mechanical booster pumps in series having a combined total of four stages. Vacuum componen

We document the concept and the design method for dome lenses that have a compressive pressure applied to the periphery. Dome (meniscus) lenses can eliminate both birefringence and tensile stresses if used in evacuated spatial filters where a pressur

Analysis of a single granule on a rotating cone shows that for the 35/sup 0/ half-angle, double-cone-shaped Cascade chamber, blanket granules will stay against the chamber wall if the rotational speed is 50 rpm or greater. The granules move axially d

The Cascade concept uses the high-temperature (1200 K) potential of a solid Li/sub 2/O pebble blanket in conjunction with centrifugal action to produce a safe and highly efficient (up to 55%) reaction chamber for commercial power production. One opti

The authors describe a sacrificial frozen-nitrogen x-ray and debris shield that is placed around fusion fuel pellets. The inner and outer radii of this shield are 100 and 165 mm, respectively. The shield absorbs nearly half of the fuel pellet energy

Combining direct and thermal power conversion results in a 52% gross plant efficiency with DT fuel and 68% with advanced DD fuel. We maximize the fraction of fusion-yield energy converted to kineti...
