Abstract

Parameters of reactor-stellarator with the use of one-dimensional spatio-temporal numerical code are calculated in the conditions of ambipolarity of neoclassical transport fluxes. The steady-state modes of the self supported thermonuclear reaction are got at the pellet-injection of DT-fuel. The variants of the magnetic system with the different sizes of helical field’s ripples are considered. The technical parameters of reactors appear executable and have fusion power, comparable with the power of already operating nuclear reactors.
