Jonathan Schattke of Missouri University of Science and Technology presents "ThorMer Reactor". ThorMer is a nuclear power plant with no moving parts.
Thesis written by Jonathan Schattke on subject of ThorMer Reactor:
https://search.proquest.com/openview/...
Subjects Covered:
Accelerator Driven – subcritical, no control rods, energy multiplication
Thorium – cheap, abundant, used in natural form
Mercury – dense, liquid at room temperature, shielding, spallation target & coolant
MagnetoHydrodynamic Generation – no turbines
Natural pressurization – gravity head, no pump
MHD Generator is Magneto-Hydrodynamic Generation based on current passing through a coil F=Q∙(vˣB).
Summary:
300 MeV 1 MW Proton beam costing 3 MWe
Mercury spallation produces 3.4 neutrons
Pu/Th subcritical assembly produces 40 MWth in Mercury steam
Mercury Steam produces ~15 MWe in Magnetohydrodynamic Generator
Condenser maintains pressure differential
Condensate flows back to core
Presented at TEAC8 ( Thorium Energy Alliance Conference #8 ) on 2017-08-22 ( August 22nd, 2017 ). http://ThoriumEnergyAlliance.com/
