Description

An international mega-science project named ALIANCE (Axisymmetric LInear Advanced Neutron sourCE) was jointly initiated by INEST CAS and BINP RAS. It is aimed at the development of fusion volumetric neutron sources based on the GDT concept of plasma confinement. The report reviews the results of numerical simulations of plasma parameters for ALIANCE project done by DOL code. Three devices are considered within the project. The first one will demonstrate the continuous confinement of deuterium plasma in linear device sustained by injection of neutral beam with relatively low power of 0.1 MW. The injection power will rise up to 2 MW in the second device, while the third one will confine D-T plasma heated by the neutral beams with a power of 50 MW. Neutron yield for these devices is expected to reach $4{\cdot}10^{9}$ 1/s and $5{\cdot}10^{13}$ 1/s of D-D neutrons for the first two devices, respectively, and $10^{18}$ 1/s of D-T neutrons for the last one.
