Monster Factory

Chapter 922: 902: Burning Water

The nuclear power plant at the secret factory uses the same technology as the humpback whale.

Reactor power is amplified and fuel rods employ enriched uranium up to 60 per cent purity.

In industrial design, the difficulty involved in scaling up a product is in no way on the drawings, just making the details of each part bigger. At the time, Zhongyun City industrial representative Huaxing Heavy Industries came out with this basket.

They changed the full set of 190 tons of mining truck drawings purchased from abroad to 240 tons. As a result, problems persist.

These problems are placed on a mining truck, which may be a reduction tank oil leak, or a larger brake space, or a power system that is not adjusted properly and consumes more power.

Domestic cars or engineering vehicles are walking this step by step.

These minor problems, which could be placed on a nuclear power plant, could lead to a serious and deadly nuclear leak.

The reactor for the Humvee, drawing from the nuclear power carrier, has an output power of 270,000 kilowatts. Now factory nuclear power plants, a single unit of output power is twenty times that.

This is not a problem that can be solved if you zoom in twenty times.

Just like truck engines, 50 and 500 engines, vary in size, usually only two or three times that.

As in the case of nuclear reactors, the volume used in the plant has not grown significantly. The biggest change is the volume change of the internal fuel rod. The humpback whale is carrying no more than 300 kilograms of nuclear fuel and has been operating uninterrupted for 26 years.

Four reactors at the plant's nuclear power plant, weighing nearly 10 tons of nuclear fuel, have a service life of only eight years.

On the one hand, the purity of the fuel rods used in the plant was only 60 per cent, 30 per cent less than that of the humpback whale. On the other hand, factory nuclear power plants need to heat up one or two loops of coolant more volumes.

Only in this way will it be possible to provide sufficient power to the ultra-supercritical machines of the plant's nuclear power plants.

In exchange for another nuclear power company, if you dare to zoom in on a marine reactor and use it on a nuclear power plant, wait for a major nuclear accident. I switched to the giant animal industry, but there was no risk.

The core principles of the nuclear power plant have been eaten up by the monsters. When building the marine heap, Academician Liu Xuetao of the Chinese Academy of Sciences also provided a large amount of technical information on commercial nuclear power plants. All that remains are nuclear fuel rod shell materials, pressure-resistant shell materials, pipes, and critical unit materials.

The importance of metallic materials goes without saying, but these are the easiest to solve for the giant animal industry.

……

After an orderly series of 30 monsters commissioned the gas centrifugation unit, the horses continued to move to the secret factory behind the Soto rainforest for the installation of the nuclear power plant reactor.

In the clandestine factory, an underground “enclosure” with higher safety standards than the gas centrifuge building across the street has already been constructed.

All excavations were carried out by anger miners, a huge 30-metre underground “safety case” with four reactors and ten supercritical generator units. If you let Master Liu Xuetao, one of the leaders of Huaxia Commercial Nuclear Power Plant, see the scene.

He will definitely be furious and not hesitate to denounce Giant Beast Industries and treat [Safe Production] as a play.

In a pressure-resistant housing, only one reactor can be installed, and the generator unit is separated from the reactor, which is the most basic industry stipulation. Otherwise, in the event of an accident at any one of the reactors, the three remaining reactors, unable to escape, can only be destroyed together.

The monsters did not care, and all the accidents at the nuclear power plant, except for the irresistible causes of the tsunami earthquake, were caused by the negligence of personnel and the failure to strictly observe the rules of operation.

This kind of thing doesn't happen here at the monster.

In the Sotu Rainforest, both plant managers and General Mopu, who heads the site.

We all know that behind the rainforest lies a secret factory.

Factory management, which implicitly knows that secret factory, specializes in the processing of calcium uranium mica mines.

Calcium uranium mica purification is followed by uranium, which is accompanied by isolated stone mines producing rare earth metals, with the presence of small quantities of calcium uranium mica in the mining areas of the plant. Behind the more radioactive rainforest, there will be only more calcium uranium mica ore.

Of course, it can be assumed that the clandestine factory was mining the mica calcium uranium, without prejudice to the day-to-day work of those management.

The mining of calcium uranium mica is not illegal, and many foreign mining giants have such operations. Moreover, Calcium Uranium Mica's primary purification article [uranium powder] is itself an industrial product that can monitor circulation in the mineral market at a spot price of 500 yuan per kilogram.

Many mineral collectors, including many in the country, enjoy collecting beautiful calcium uranium mica mines.

The ability to mine calcium uranium mica and to purify uranium ore into enriched uranium are two concepts. Just as iron ore is mined in ore fields, there is no technology to make these iron ore cars.

The uranium mining site behind the rainforest may be used to sell money after mining. In any case, several projects in the giant animal industry are deeply cooperative with the military industry system and the relationship is very hard.

They just don't know that those monsters have dared to extract a lot of enriched uranium.

Even if you know, of course, it is a matter for the State.

……

The installation work lasted two days in a row, and Ye Qing also stayed in the factory for two days.

Ye Qing stood in the radiation-proof operating room, through the leaded glass observation window, and watched the monsters install four reactors in place, and then connect them with the two-circuit coolant, and the ultra-supercritical unit.

Everything is in order, just the fuel rod.

Ye Qing has also been turning over for two days, and Academician Liu Xuetao originally provided technical information to Giant Beast Industry.

According to the information, the most important step for a commercial nuclear power plant was the first installation of fuel rods. Because once the fuel rod is put in, the nuclear power plant will be officially in working condition and the reactor will not stop working until the fuel is released.

With regard to the first start-up of all systems, preparations can no longer be excessive.

The safety manual contains strict marking of up to 300 pre-start safety inspection processes and 17 pipeline tests, with the exception of reactors.

The master process requires a one-month inspection test for all nuclear power plant staff.

Ye Qing was going through the information, and sometime, an ingenious master knocked on the door.

“Boss, the massive laborers have brought in the fuel rods. We can put the fuel assembly in the reactor pressure housing. ”

“Have you checked all the programs?” Ye Qing flipped through some of the materials and simply pushed them to the master of ingenuity.

“I just saw it again, no problem.” The master of ingenuity flipped two pages at random and hurriedly threw them aside, "Boss, you don't need to look at this information. Believe that, we might as well burn smokeless coal instead. ”

“Then put it straight? ”

“That's right." The master was kind enough to help Ye Qing put together the thick safety manual on the table.

“Boss, you can't blow it up. ”

“Well... let it go, I'll go out first, I'll come back in a couple of hours. ”

Ten minutes later Ye Qing rose to the ground aboard the Lord's Battleship.

Next to the reactor, the master in protective clothing, like a screw, screws a fuel rod entirely by hand into the fuel assembly.

The fuel rod is tightly screwed into the assembly, like a bunch of compact overall "firewood".

At the top of the reactor, a strong, powerful worker is securing one fuel assembly after another to the core drive rod beneath the pressure-resistant housing. After doing this, and locking down the pressurized shell opened by the machine, everything will be fine.

Oh, and the last one is missing, inject a loop of coolant.

Look at a loop of coolant and quickly pull up the temperature under the heating of the core.

The master clapped his hands, indicating that it was done.

It's just boiling water.

What's the essential difference between smokeless coal burning and uranium enrichment burning?
