Abstract
A method of generating a nuclear reaction from a gas stream containing water which involves heating a gas stream at a rapid rate sufficient to dissociate the water into hydrogen and oxygen and to transform hydrogen ions into protons which produce nuclear reactions, including nuclear fusion. Once the reaction state is reached, no additional heat needs to be inputted into the reaction system. The resulting nuclear reaction can be used to produce heat for buildings, heat that can be used to generate electricity, and heat that can be used for other purposes.
Claims22
A method of generating a nuclear reaction from a gas stream containing hydrogen atoms which comprises the steps of:
- a) applying heat to the gas stream at a rapid rate sufficient to dissociate the water into hydrogen and oxygen and to transform hydrogen ions into protons to induce nuclear reactions;
- b) terminating the application of heat to the gas stream;
- and
- c) allowing nuclear reactions to continue in reactive species of the gas stream.
A method of generating heat which comprises the steps of:
- a) providing a gas stream which includes water;
- b) applying heat to the gas stream at a rapid rate sufficient to dissociate the water into hydrogen and oxygen and to transform hydrogen ions into protons;
- c) terminating the application of heat to the gas stream;
- d) allowing nuclear reactions to occur in reactive species of the gas stream;
- and
- e) recovering heat from the nuclear reactions.
A nuclear reactor which comprises:
- a chamber having an upstream side and a downstream side;
- a gas inlet at the upstream side;
- a gas outlet at the downstream side;
- means for flowing a stream of gas through the chamber from the upstream side to the downstream side;
- first and second means to heat the gas stream flowing through said chamber at a sufficient rate to cause components of said stream of gas to undergo nuclear reactions, wherein the first means to heat the gas stream is upstream from the second means to heat the gas stream.
