Design Phase

Objective: Create a detailed blueprint for the TSMR (~1 m³, 10 kW) using 2035 technology projections.

Materials

• Thorium-232 (5 kg).
• Electrostatic plates (stainless steel, 30x30 cm).
• Compact proton accelerator (ceramic/steel, 20x20x20 cm).
• AI control unit (ARM-based, 20x20x10 cm).
• Software: AutoCAD, Blender for visualization.

Methods

1. Design fission core (30x30x30 cm) with thorium lattice.
2. Integrate accelerator for subcritical operation.
3. Model collector plates for 10% efficiency.
4. Develop cooling loop (liquid sodium, 50x50x20 cm).
5. Use AutoCAD for 2D layout; Blender for 3D rendering.
