  • 锥形腔内爆压缩是一种新的产生高温高压等离子体的方式,在常规压强驱动下可以实现106–109的体积压缩比,温度达到10 eV以上.为了进一步快速压缩升温,并引入磁场约束能量,我们提出了在流体驱动压缩末端使用θ箍缩的办法,以产生更高温度和密度的等离子体.我们采用磁流体模拟,对锥形腔内只有流体驱动、只有θ箍缩和同时有流体驱动和θ箍缩的混合压缩三种压缩方式进行二维数值计算,结果显示混合压缩能够显著改善压缩和能量约束,产生更高温度的等离子体.模拟还分析了不同参数对混合压缩的影响.

     

    Low density gas conical implosion can produce high density plasmas with a volume compression ratio of 106 to 109, and a temperature over 10 eV. As the temperature is limited by the plasma-wall interaction, to further increase the density and temperature and confine the plasma energy, we use a theta pinch at the top of the imploding cone. A conical magnetohydrodynamic simulation method is used to calculate the properties of the plasma, in which three cases, i.e., pure conical fluid compression, pure theta pinch, and synergic compression of fluid compressing and theta pinch, are calculated in a two-dimensional conical geometry. Simulation shows that synergic compression can improve the energy confinement and efficiently raise the temperature of the plasma. Different parameter combinations are calculated to find the optimum performance.
