The pellet injector operates like a high efficiency icemaker for frozen fuel pellets. An extruder punches out several millimeter-sized deuterium-tritium ice pellets that are propelled by a gas gun at approximately 300 m/s fast and cold enough to penetrate deep into the plasma core, where they vaporize and deposit fresh fuel. 2, record 1, English, - pellet%20injector
