As
It consists of a core composed of radioactive elements. Primary generator consists of a LC tank circuit. LC circuit produces the oscillations required for transformer operation.
WORKING
Oscillations induced in LCR circuit damp out due to loss of energy. Here energy is imparted to the alpha particles during the decay of elements in the core. This energy is introduced to circuit when alpha particles are absorbed by the inductor. Oscillations sustain until amount of energy absorbed=amount of energy dissipated in ohmic resistance. This excess energy is delivered to the load connected across transformer T secondary winding.
FUEL CONSIDERATIONS
The
Any radioisotope in the form of a solid that gives off alpha or beta particles can be utilized in the nuclear battery. The most powerful source of energy known is radium-226. However Strontium-90 may also be used in this Battery
