I am planning to cover the high voltage wires with pvc piping and will have a little light that shows when the machine is on, so people will know to stay away from it. When not in use, it will be unplugged and the deuterium bottle will be taken off. When being handled, I will wear safety...
I am not trying to "break even" - I am trying to creat a tokamak that can achieve enough fusion through magnetic compression and ohmic heating to be detected by a http://www.bubbletech.ca/radiation_detectors_files/Bubble%20Detectors.html" . In other words, I am hardly attempting a tokamak on...
So- with a steel torus, copper wire, and deuterium gas, plus vacuum pumps, a high voltage power transformer and controls, I could theoretically make a device capable of creating fusion, right? The idea I had for this thread is that it would help me decide the materials I would need for making...
Are you sure steel will work? I don't want a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinch_(plasma_physics)" going on - That'll set me back a bit.
cragar: Yeah, I would like to know what kind of wire to pass it through to optimise magnetic pressure, I'm thinking of using copper.
Nevermind the hydrogen types and the current problem, I found those out. Still would like to know which would be better for body construction - stainless steel or something else.
Maybe this could help...

I've been studying up on physics, and a question occurred to me. According to the Theory of Relativity, the faster objects go, the more mass they have. Now, if we have a stellar object (a star for instance) moving towards the speed of light, at some point , would it have gained enough mass...
What are the minimum standards for tokamak fusion? For instance, What are the ideal materials? Should you use deuterium, tritium, or a mixture of the two? How much current do you run through it before it confines the hydrogen gas enough to create fusion? Please answer.
Umm... All I asked waswhat would happen if you turned off gravity in a black hole, there was no white holes or wormholes involved. I think Archosaur answered the question the best.
Is there a way that the hypothetical heat death of the universe can be prevented, if the danger exists? The heat death is a possible final state of the universe, in which it has "run down" to a state of no thermodynamic free energy to sustain motion or life. In other words, It has reached...
