Subject: Dogbone temperature control using adjustable mirrors
Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2015 18:46:08 +0000
Hi all,I am newcomer, name is Hauke Hein.
I just read Daves contribution about type 2 and 3 dogbones in vortex-l date
01.02..Had some ideas about terrestrial or space application of lenr devices
see below:Instead of heat insulation one could use adjustable aluminium mirror
segmentsin order to reflect heat back to the dogbone and regulating the
generatet heatautomatically by rotating the mirrorsegments in and out of the
radiation pathunder computer controlassuming a relatively cool background like
space or ambient temperature likeroom heater application.
The use of polished aluminium would have the avantage of safety: in case of a
beginningrun -away condition or just before that the aluminium would melt
opening the radiation-path to the cool surroundings of the reactor(type 2)and
so preventing a total meltdown.At a certain distance from the core one would
have the right temperature for that.
A simple mirror arrangment would be 2 slotted aluminium cylinders one slightly
smallerthan the other sitting inside the biggerone having lets say 8 open
segments each so the dogbonethat is in the center of this arrangment would"see"
depending of the position of the segmentsa total reflection or gradually
changing to 50% transmission/reflection
