My primary project is an experimental inertial electrostatic confinement fusor. This site documents its development and my other technical work.
Fusor Console ↗The fusor is an ongoing project. These pages document the system, changes to the hardware and software, experimental observations, and work still to be completed.
An ongoing experimental fusor project with vacuum, high-voltage, instrumentation, control, and data-acquisition systems. Hardware details, test records, and revisions are being documented here.
Roughing and turbomolecular stages, pressure gauges, valves, foreline, and venting.
View section ↗Documentation for the electrical subsystem, its measurement approach, and design constraints.
View section ↗Sensor signals, pressure interpretation, turbo speed, and measurement limits.
View section ↗Arduino telemetry, serial communication, relay-state reporting, and data acquisition.
View section ↗This section is reserved for test conditions, recorded data, observations, and troubleshooting notes.
A separate application for telemetry, recorded runs, and data analysis.
The fusor is the main project documented on this site.
I’m Taylor Romain, an Electrical Engineering Technology student. My current work includes vacuum systems, electronics, embedded control, instrumentation, and data acquisition.
