Fusion Reactor Design

A fusion reactor is designed to replicate the sun's process of generating energy by fusing hydrogen atoms into helium under extreme heat and pressure. The key components include a containment system, often using magnetic fields or lasers, to hold the hot plasma and prevent it from touching reactor walls. Thermal energy generated from fusion is then used to produce steam, driving turbines to generate electricity. The challenge lies in maintaining the necessary conditions for fusion while ensuring safety and efficiency, making continuous research and innovation essential for sustainable energy production.
