Chapter 18 Transforming Stellarator
Half a month later.
Inside the Nuclear Physics Laboratory of Sandaokou University.
Lu Yongchang sat quietly in an office assigned to him alone.
He frowned slightly, and the pen in his hand quickly calculated some formulas on the a4 paper in front of him.
Half a month has passed, and the room-temperature superconducting wire made of carbon nanotube materials has been made.
It has to be said that the power of the state machine is extremely huge!
The moment he learned that the technology of room temperature superconducting materials had made breakthroughs, Hongbu personally issued a manufacturing order.
Although Lu Yongchang has a complete carbon nanotube preparation plan, because of the manufacturing process problems at this time, the entire Xiasheng Group, which is specialized in the manufacturing of high-precision equipment, can mass-produce superconductors that meet the standards.
wire.
As for those foreign companies...
Hong Qiming is not a fool. If he really wants to give them the order, it will probably take a few days. Several Western powers should be able to "master" the room temperature superconducting technology!
Stimulated by a large amount of funds and administrative orders, Xiasheng Group's carbon nanotube wire manufacturing capacity has been continuously expanding!
In just half a month, the room temperature superconducting wire worth hundreds of millions was transported to the nuclear physics laboratory of Sandaokou University.
At this time, an old-style star imitator device had been installed in the nuclear physics laboratory.
However, all the spiral wires on the outer layer of the imitation device at this time have been removed by the staff.
As for the inner cavity of the imitation device, it was replaced with a newly manufactured inner cavity a few days ago.
The materials used in the new inner cavity are naturally the new materials that Lu Yongchang deduced on the blackboard!
According to material testing, the reactor cavity composed of this new material can perfectly resist the high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees when nuclear fusion reaction occurs!
In addition, when Fang Xu was conducting material testing, he was surprised to find that this new material can also perfectly resist the radiation damage caused by nuclear fusion.
While Fang Xu was surprised, a hint of admiration for Lu Yongchang suddenly arose in his heart.
Such powerful materials were actually deduced on paper by a sophomore undergraduate!
Fang Xu couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.
At this age, he really lived to be a dog!
Lu Yongchang naturally didn't know what Fang Xu thought. At this time, he was sitting in the office carefully checking the size parameters of this imitation star device.
According to Fang Xu, this imitation star device was originally used by research institutes in Country D.
As for why I didn't use it anymore... I naturally returned to the original question.
The manufacturing of imitation stellar devices is extremely difficult!
Unlike the regular spiral shape of Tokamakana, the imitation device looks like a chaotic ball of yarn!
The position of each wire needs to be carefully calculated to ensure that it can generate a magnetic field at a specific angle!
At this time, Lu Yongchang was completing this work.
He needs to calculate the precise position of each superconducting wire based on the size parameters of the star imitator to ensure that a closed and twisted ring magnetic cage can be formed in the inner cavity of the star imitator to constrain extremely high temperature plasmas
body.
...
"call……"
Lu Yongchang gently put down the pen in his hand and exhaled a long breath.
After several days of calculation, we finally achieved gratifying results.
According to his calculations, these superconducting coils can provide a strong magnetic field with strength up to 100t.
This will be the most powerful artificial magnetic field on Earth!
This strong magnetic field of 100t can perfectly constrain fusion plasma of hundreds of millions of degrees in the center of the reactor cavity!
He stood up, walked slowly to the office door, and gently twisted the door handle.
The sound of the office door opening attracted Fang Xu's attention.
"Hmm? Have you completed the calculation task?"
Seeing the relaxed expression on Lu Yongchang's face, Fang Xu's eyes flashed with surprise and asked immediately.
How many days have passed?
It’s only a little longer than three days, right?
Can Lu Yongchang complete such a complex calculation task within three days?
Fang Xu didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart.
As if he saw the questioning look in Fang Xu's eyes, Lu Yongchang chuckled and said, "Of course it's done!"
While saying that, he handed Fang Xu a stack of a4 paper in his hand: "How about...you check it?"
Fang Xu took the a4 paper handed over by Lu Yongchang with a look of surprise.
When he saw the dense calculation formulas above, Fang Xu swallowed slightly.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he seemed to be unable to understand the calculation method above.
"Ahem...I believe your calculation results!"
As he said that, Fang Xu returned the stack of A4 papers to Lu Yongchang with a serious expression: "How about... let Tianhe No. 1 verify your calculation results?"
Lu Yongchang was stunned for a moment, nodded slightly, and agreed to Fang Xu's proposal.
It is related to controlled nuclear fusion, and all research resources are given priority to Sandaokou Nuclear Physics Laboratory.
As soon as the application was reported, the use time for Tianhe No. 1 was allocated.
Fang Xu carefully inputs each result calculated by Lu Yongchang into the computer, and then runs it by Tianhe No. 1.
At this time, the role of the supercomputer was completely revealed.
In just half an hour, the calculation results appeared in front of Fang Xu and Lu Yongchang.
Success!
...
The release of the superconducting wire layout scheme means that the transformation plan for the imitation device has reached the last step.
Coil brackets of specific angles are installed outside the stellar imitation device.
These brackets can act as a fixing coil.
After all, for a star imitator, once the external superconducting coil is offset by a slight position, it means a disaster.
Once the internal annular magnetic cage is damaged, the plasma of hundreds of millions of degrees will directly contact the surface of the inner cavity!
I believe no one would want to see such consequences!
Therefore, when completing the final transformation of the imitation device, both Lu Yongchang and Fang Xu were very energetic, fearing that some minor mistakes would occur.
...
Three days later.
The renovation of old imitation stellar instruments has been completely completed.
"Yongchang, when will we start the first ignition experiment?"
Fang Xu's voice sounded from the side.
Before he knew it, Fang Xu had already regarded Lu Yongchang as his superior. Before every study decision, he would take the lead in asking Lu Yongchang's opinions.
“It’s OK now!”
A glimmer of light flashed in Lu Yongchang's eyes, he moved his eyes away from the calculation a4 paper on his desk, and said in a deep voice: "Academician Fang, report it."
"This afternoon, we will start our first ignition experiment!"
As Fang Xu applied for the first ignition experiment to Hong Qiming, some changes also occurred in Sandaokou University.
Dozens of special forces soldiers entered Sandaokou University in casual clothes, and all the main roads leading to the nuclear physics laboratory were blocked.
Even on some high-rise buildings near the Nuclear Physics Laboratory, snipers have set up sniper rifles and observation equipment in advance.
It is no exaggeration to say that even a bird in the nuclear physics laboratory at this time cannot fly by safely!
Chapter completed!
