Thermal Properties Applications Of Diamond
Diamond Discs Are An Indispensable Material For Controlling Nuclear Fusion Reactions Because nuclear power provides people with an environmentally friendly energy source, scientists all over the world are working to achieve this goal. However, in this sophisticated field, a little-known material is involved, that is, diamond, which is actually an indispensable material in nuclear fusion technology. In the process of nuclear reaction, hydrogen atoms and nitrogen atoms fuse, which will release huge energy. If applied in nuclear power plants, it could one day contribute to a sustainable and secure energy supply for mankind. A gyrotron is a microwave oscillator that generates temperatures of up to 500 million degrees Celsius in a reactor, similar to a giant microwave oven. This high temperature can bring the tritium fuel to the plasma state required for melting. In order to direct the microwave radiation shock from the gyrotron into the plasma and keep the radioactive tritium inside the ...
