How Nuclear Fusion Produces Energy
By: Braxton Barber
Introduction
Hi, my name is Braxton Barber and my lab partners and I have found a new discovery. We were able to find a way to use nuclear fusion as an energy source.
Nuclear Fusion
This shows how nuclear fusion works.
Nuclear Fusion on the Sun
This is where we get our nuclear energy.
Nuclear Reactor
The purpose of the reactor is to utilize the actual neutrons produced in the core.
Information about Nuclear Fusion
Who, What, When, Where, Why, How?
Who: Duke Energy
What: Will use nuclear fusion to try and power multiple communities.
When: They've already started tests.
Where: They will continue these tests in Brunswick, Mecklenburg, and Wake Counties in North Carolina.
Why: The goal of this is to have enough power to power communities in North Carolina without having to burn fossil fuels.
How: The groups of scientists will join the atoms together and come up with the final product.
