Sentence examples for compressing the fuel from inspiring English sources

By compressing the fuel extremely rapidly, Dr Yang has been able to make it burn in a cavity as small as one cubic millimetre.

The second half rotation of the crankshaft pushes the piston back up again inside the cylinder, compressing the fuel and air mixture as the intake valve closes.

Assuming the energy required scales with the mass of the fusion plasma (E laser ~ ρR 3   ~ ρ −2), compressing the fuel to 103 or 104 times solid density would reduce the energy required by a factor of 106 or 108, bringing it into a realistic range.

In this scheme, the main laser or particle beam is used to compress the fuel similar to shock heating.

That's enough to compress the fuel to a speck 50 micrometers across and heat it up to three million degrees Celsius.

And some skeptics question whether NIF in particular can achieve self-sustained fusion, saying that the facility cannot produce sufficiently high-energy laser pulses without either damaging the laser optics or losing the tight focus on the target needed to compress the fuel evenly.

As well as these magnetic approaches, others are using lasers to heat and compress the fuel so that it initiates the fusion reaction.

In MTF, a superheated plasma is created and confined magnetically, but pistons surrounding it compress the fuel inside, creating a burst of nuclear fusion in the interior.

It would consist of a long-pulse laser with energy of 200 kJ to compress the fuel and a short-pulse laser with energy of 70 kJ to heat it.

The main of them is using a moved explosive, which allows to accelerate the special rocket piston to a very high speed (more than 30 km/s) which (as it is shown by computations) compresses the fuel capsule in million times and heating up million degrees of temperature.

The chief among them is using moving explosives (rocket thrust), which allows to accelerate the special piston to a very high speed (more 30 km/s) which (as it is shown by integral computations) compresses the fuel capsule a million times and heats up million degrees of temperature.
