Abstract
A method, using the reaction between Lithium and neutron to produce Tritium, is used to sustain Deuterium-Tritium nuclear fusion long enough to produce electrical power. This method uses Deuterium-Tritium nuclear fusion to produce energy. The energy produced by Deuterium-Tritium nuclear fusion is used to heat water to produce steam. The steam produced is used to operate steam turbine. The steam turbine operates electrical generator to produce electricity. The electricity generated is used as electrical power. In the Deuterium-Tritium nuclear fusion, Deuterium is naturally abundant, but Tritium is naturally scarce. This invention provides a method to supply Tritium. That is, Lithium, which is naturally abundant, is added as fuel. The neutron produced by Deuterium-Tritium nuclear fusion will react with Lithium to produce Tritium. Thus it sustains the Deuterium-Tritium nuclear fusion long enough to produce fusion energy, which is then turned into electrical power.
