Assume:
electric power needed is 750 MW,
efficiency of conversion of fusion power to electricity is 45 %
plasma volume is 200 cubic meters
energy per reaction is 2.9 E-12 J
assume nD = nT = 1/2 of N fuel [ number of fuel nuclei per cubic meter]
sigma v is 7 E-22 cubic meter per sec [yes these are the units for the reasulkts to come out correctly]
Find the following:
fusion power required
fusion power per cubic meter of plasma
reactions/ ( cubic meter sec) required
nD , nT
