INTERNATIONAL THERMONUCLEAR EXPERIMENTAL REACTOR

[Audio] In this Presentation we are discussing about, INTERNATIONAL THERMONUCLEAR EXPERIMENTAL REACTOR.

[Audio] International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor is an international nuclear fusion research and engineering megaproject. Which will be the world's largest magnetic confinement plasma physics experiment ..

[Audio] ITER is located in Saint-Paul-lès-Durance, in Provence, southern France. The project is funded and run by seven member entities—the European Union, India, Japan, China, Russia, South Korea, and the United States. The EU, as host party for the ITER complex, is contributing about 45 percent of the cost, with the other six parties contributing approximately 9 percent each. ITER is located in Saint-Paul-lès-Durance, in Provence, southern France..

[Audio] ITER INSPIRED BY THE FUSION POWER OF SUN Imagine what it would be like to have a miniature version of our sun right here on earth! > Would it gives us an infinite supply of clean energy ? > would we get rid of coal and nuclear power plants ? > could this energy replace the rocket fuel ? > could we control it ? The sun is an enormous amount of nuclear fusion generator, every second it fuses 620 million tons of hydrogen ,and forms in to 606 million tons of helium in its core and releasing a vast amount of energy in this process..

[Audio] To create a replica of the sun on earth We need to squeeze atoms of hydrogen hard enough to make them fuse but this fusion is only possible at extream temparatures . Even the sun's coldest part it's surface burns at an incredible 5,500°C . Not even a space suit can protect you from that kind of heat , but we could engineer's a high –temparature superconductor to tame our scorching mini-sun. Having a artificial sun on our hands would provide us with almost limitless amount of energy, of course it would be much smaller than the sun..

[Audio] To make it work > we need two specific hydrogen isotopes one of them called deuterium ,we'd extract from water , the other one tritium we'd brew from lithium during the fusion reaction itself. > with the help of huge magnets at least a thousand times more powerful than those in fridge, this field would keep the artificial sun in place, while were heating it up to 150 million°C few materials could handle the scorching plasma of our sun, we have to create a robust blanket for it one that wouldn't melt during this scorching fusion once we had all the engineering issues figured out the artificial sun would completely change the way of our energy system works..

[Audio] Fusion reaction When deuterium and tritium fuse, two nuclei come together to form a helium nucleus (an alpha particle), and a high-energy neutron. The energy released as heat is used to produce steam, that force run turbines and generate electricity..

[Audio] ADVANTAGES * It would produce 10 times more energy than what its consumes . *it wouldn't emit any green house gases *and there would be no hazardous radioactive waste left. *we'd never run out of hydrogen because most common element in the universe * the deuterium-tritium fusion process releases roughly four times as much energy as uranium- 235 fission. And million of times more energy than chemical reaction such as the burning of coal..

[Audio] Clean and green energy The by product of this fusion releases helium , its inert gas and non-toxic ,nature friendly gas . With this clean and safe source of energy we'd stopping adding fuels to climate change Clean and green energy.
