Monster Factory

In Ye Qing's vision, these two represent the highest level of nuclear reactors in the industry.

Its key equipment hidden in the seal shell can be very precise and compact, and cannot be overstated by making a dojo in the screw shell. When the crystal hands are connected, remove the seal case from the drawing.

Ye Qing and the monsters only discovered that there are two more sealed shells.

They are flat cylindrical and stacked together.

In a sealed shell above, the interior is covered with a thick metal rod. These metal rods are secured inside the enclosure with a total of 480. There is no metal rod inside the lower seal, but there are numerous pipes that connect to the top of the head seal and extend below to the outside and eventually to the steam turbine.

If you look at the stereoscopic drawings alone, Ye Qing can easily guess the reactor and divide it into two core parts.

Above is the fuel rod and below is the cycle cooling system.

The circulation system continuously removes the high pressure heat flow around the fuel rod. These heat streams exchange heat with the two-circuit water, driving the steam turbine to rotate, gradually cooling and then rejoining the cycle process.

Sounds simple.

Fuel rods produce a lot of heat, and these calories heat the liquid, which is water if it's white.

It has been argued that no matter how many generations a reactor develops, it is still unable to escape the problem of hot water heating, thanks to the use of high technology. When will we get rid of this and become truly technological advances?

It seems plausible that even if the claim is 25 years away from success, the controllable nuclear fusion that breaks the laws of physics will eventually remain hot water to generate electricity.

It cannot be said, however, that "hot water" is very soil and that, of the known thermal energy conversions in humans, it is currently the most efficient to burn water.

The technical difficulty of hot water in a nuclear reactor is simply not imaginable. Making it simple to heat hot water, but how to keep it steady and hot water hot and cycling safely and steadily is the real difficulty. Otherwise, in the event of a nuclear spill, the only end to the entire ship would be to be sunk under the sea.

The reactor drawings on the screen were zoomed in a little bit, and soon, Ye Qing and the monsters discovered a lot of unusual details from these seemingly unusual core structures.

For example, not all of these 480 fuel rods are loaded with the same reactor fuel core.

Hexagonally arranged fuel rods, if thousands of uranium-235 core pieces are loaded in the most peripheral fuel rods, only 600 of the most intermediate fuel rods are loaded, and their quantities are arranged in a regular manner.

In doing so, Ye Qing speculated in pursuit of thermal energy consistency.

Without the drawings, the giant animal industry wants to figure out the most perfect arrangement of fuel cores. I'm afraid it will take several experiments to verify, consume a lot of resources, accumulate a lot of data before the calculation can finally be simulated. And now, all you have to do is paint a lady like a gourd.

There is also the way the cooling cycle system works below, as the drawings zoom in. Ye Qing and the monsters, tracking and analyzing along the circular structure, can easily deduce the power generation pattern of this reactor from the structure of this system.

One circuit of cooling water, which directs heat into the second circuit of water generated by steam turbines, is not a supercritical state.

Ultra-critical units, very different from ordinary steam turbine units. The Longxi Beach factory has produced supercritical units and is naturally very knowledgeable about this area. Not supercritical, which proves that the reactor has a low thermal efficiency ratio.

If the supercritical unit has a thermal efficiency ratio of 50%, the thermal efficiency ratio in front of the unit is up to 30%.

Ye Qing is somewhat strange, the supercritical unit manufacturing technology, although only a few major countries have mastered it, but obviously the United States is the largest country. Why do ordinary units that lag behind at least two generations of technology on such advanced reactors have to be employed very conservatively?

There must be a reason for this.

It is easy to get the recycled water to a supercritical state by increasing its residence time around the fuel rod.

The fuel rod generates heat during the chain reaction and heats the water in the pressure housing. Without cooling, the temperature of the fuel rod can rise to over 2,000 degrees. The critical temperature of the water is only 374.15 degrees, and the steam working temperature of this unit in front of you is estimated to be up to 300 degrees.

It was just over 70 degrees short, but the thermal efficiency ratio varied greatly. If you let yourself choose, make sure you don't say anything supercritical or even super-supercritical.

Americans don't dare.

Is this because metallurgical technology is irrelevant? Or the natural limiting reason for the fuel rod itself?

If the former is the case, Ye Qing doesn't mind showing the Americans what the world's top industrial technology is. They can't, and the giant animal industry shows them what it means to be supercritical and what it means to be infinitely powerful.

If it is because of the latter, then the probability of using the same conservative formula on the side of the giant animal industry is likely to be the same as in the United States.

……

All night long, the monsters were analyzing this hard-earned three-dimensional set of aircraft carrier reactor drawings. All the details are meticulously written down, and the crystal implants this set of drawings into the overcalculation, using the complete drawings and the metallurgical technology available in the giant animal industry, to build an arithmetic model of the overcalculation.

For example, Americans cannot be shown on the drawings, which alloy technology is used to construct the most peripheral sealed pressure housing of the reactor.

But the giant animal industry knows how much pressure it can build.

Similarly, one loop cooling pipe pressure of the circulation system, and the maximum working pressure of the two loops, can be expressed very specifically in the model.

Of course, these data are not enough, the specific formulation of the core in the fuel rod is not clear, and what catalyst, or passivating agent, is involved in cooling the circulating water to stabilize the chain reaction process of the fuel rod?

But this data is no longer a roadblock.

The core structure is cracked, and the remaining unknown parameters are purely theoretical data. Huaxia is also a nuclear power, and large nuclear power plants have grown into a mature third generation, at the same leading level as the world. Perhaps limited by industrial processing techniques, it is not possible to produce reactors for surface ships.

But the answer to which core to use, how to stabilize the core, or why the United States does not employ supercritical units, can be found in the mouths of nuclear power system workers.

There is no nuclear energy department at Zhongyun University, and there are several Polytechnic Universities in Shanghai.

Many of the professors involved in the design and research and development of the Huaxia nuclear power plant are people with both theoretical and practical work experience. In the name of the company, hire them to refine the parameters of the set of crystals, the batons, and the cooling of the circulating water, not too easy.

And just these internationally available data are neither illegal, nor do they know whether the giant animal industry is going to build a reactor or the world's most advanced marine reactor from the United States.

The next morning, Ye Qing called Professor Chenning Cai of Zhongyun University.

Professor Cai Chenning was a mentor to Ye Qing in college. Although he was in charge of the mechanical engineering department, he was able to mix professor circles. He lived a lot more years, and his connections were all over the country. He was right to recommend several professors in the field of nuclear energy.

After receiving a call from Ye Qing, Professor Cai Chenning made a series of gunfight-like laughter without thinking too long.

“President Ye, ask me that's the right person. ”

“Listen to me, you don't have to go to a bunch of professors to study theoretical data. Studying nuclear energy is not mahjong. It's useless. ”

“I recommend to you a super ‘bull', he alone is enough, he has the readily available data you want. ”

Ye Qing asked who this‘ bull ’is. Is he not a treasure-grade academician? This kind of person seems to be busier than the president. Can't you please move?

“Ha ha ~ President Ye, don't worry, this‘ bull ’wants to say something else, please don't move, but your giant animal industry is preferable. ”
