US firm shows breakthrough nuclear fusion device prototype with 100 KW of input power without the need for magnets
Zap Energy's Century is claimed to be the first fully-integrated demonstration of several fusion power plant-relevant technologies.
It will also test critical strategies for mitigating electrode damage due to extreme heat and neutron flux, according to Zap Energy. “As you do that you also generate large neutron flux and heat loads in the system over time, which is exactly the energy output that you want, but requires unique engineering solutions. The first test of plasmas and flowing liquid metal occurred on June 13 and a few weeks later completed a run of 1080 consecutive shots, reported World Nuclear News.
