High Temperature Fusion Reactor Cooling Using Brayton Cycle Based Partial Energy Conversion, Albert Juhasz, Jerzy Sawicki Nov 2012

High Temperature Fusion Reactor Cooling Using Brayton Cycle Based Partial Energy Conversion, Albert Juhasz, Jerzy Sawicki

Jerzy T. Sawicki

For some future space power systems using high temperature nuclear heat sources most of the output energy will be used in other than electrical form, and only a fraction of the total thermal energy generated will need to be converted to electrical work. The paper describes the conceptual design of such a “partial energy conversion” system, consisting of a high temperature fusion reactor operating in series with a high temperature radiator and in parallel with dual closed cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power systems, also referred to as closed Brayton cycle (CBC) systems, which are supplied with a fraction of the …
