Description
| Abstract: | The concept of fusion reactors as power generating machines was investigated. Specific attention was focused on the problems involved with tritium containment. Several ceramics and metals were compared as possible tritium barriers for future reactors. It was discovered that the future of ceramics for tritium containment is limited due to the problems in generating a continuous layer inside the reactor. However, regenerative oxide layers on the reactor walls may prove to be a possible solution. |
