FIELD: power industry.
SUBSTANCE: conversion method of nuclear energy to heat energy consists in excitation of nuclear cascade processes with beam of charged particles directed to reactor core from substances with heavy nuclei and/or composition of those substances. At that, highly charged ions of heavy elements of uranium, or thorium, or bismuth, or plumbum are obtained and accelerated in two-dimensional or three-dimensional spatial lines. For generation of cascade nucleons, waste nuclear fuel is introduced to reactor core or waste nuclear fuel is used as core by itself. Complex of conversion of nuclear energy to heat energy includes subcritical reactor and multi-sectional accelerator of highly charged heavy ions of uranium, or thorium, or bismuth, or plumbum elements. Linear accelerating sections of accelerator are arranged on two-dimensional or three-dimensional spatial lines and connected by means of magnetic assemblies of the beam turn, which are made in compliance with the requirement for equality of current pulse value of stiffness ion of magnetic system. Beam introduction assembly to reactor is made in the form of sector magnet.
EFFECT: invention allows enlarging the operating time of reactor without fuel loading, reducing radiation load on environment, utilising nuclear fuel wastes, simplifying and cheapening the energy generation process.
