Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif servant à entraîner de manière contrôlée des réactions nucléaires dans un réacteur nucléaire à cavitation ou CNR. De manière générale, le CNR est constitué d'une matière solide, et plus particulièrement, d'une matière combustible répartie dans une matière hôte. Le CNR peut présenter diverses formes différentes. De l'énergie, généralement sous forme d'énergie acoustique, est entraînée dans le CNR au moyen d'un ou de plusieurs organes d'entraînement afin de produire un motif d'intensité de pression dans le réacteur. Le motif d'intensité de pression permet de produire, à de nombreux emplacements du réacteur, une énergie suffisante pour former de petites cavités ou bulles. En raison du phénomène de cavitation, l'énergie appliquée provoque une oscillation des bulles nouvellement formées, qui sont soumises à une période d'expansion suivie d'une période d'éclatement. La vitesse de la matière à convergence sphérique associée au cycle de cavitation, qui atteint souvent des vitesses supersoniques, est suffisante pour obtenir une densité et une température dépassant celles requises pour entraîner diverses réactions nucléaires différentes, y compris la fusion, la fission, la spallation et le stripage de neutrons. Une source de chaleur externe peut être utilisée, si nécessaire, pour chauffer la matière du CNR, ce qui permet d'activer les réactions nucléaires voulues. Dans une forme de réalisation spécifique, le CNR est excité à une fréquence qui correspond sensiblement à une fréquence de résonance du CNR ou à un multiple entier d'une fréquence de résonance.
