Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Chapter 542 Site Selection Tian Wan

From the innocent lying guns at the Institute of Substances, to the revocation of his visa, to the departure of China from ITER, Shawler's mood for the past month has been like a slide ride, all the way down, never been better.

I waited at home for a month, and Shaw was basically free for a month. In addition to brushing down Arxiv every day, keeping track of the latest research developments at major research institutions is helping moms walk their dogs.

The feeling of being brutally dragged out of an unfinished study was so painful that only he could feel it himself.

Professor Li hasn't heard from him yet. I don't know if he hasn't adjusted his status, or if he hasn't found a new topic yet, or if he hasn't thought of his side yet.

There are no further arrangements for the doctors who have been sent back from the General Atomic Energy Corporation by the Institute of Materials, and it seems that they have not yet thought about what to do.

After all, with the departure from ITER, a number of collaborative research projects with ITER were suspended, and many more needed to be reassigned.

Unfortunately, the State has tightened its investment in Tokamak, and the funds available do not support so many topics at all…

It is said that there is chaos in the institute, and Shaw is not sure if she should go back now, but eventually she cannot let go of the affairs in the institute and intends to go to Luyang for another two days rest.

After all, I've been so idle, my head is rusting...

However, when he packed his bags and even bought the tickets, he suddenly received a call from the house.

“Where are you now? ”

“Shang... did Professor Li ask you to contact me?” Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Shaw asked hastily.

“Professor Lee, we've been in touch, and he recommended you to us. There's a research job for you in Su Province, and we'd like to know if you're interested. ”

"Wait, I don't understand what you're talking about, research posts? Su Province?”

“Yes,” the man on the other end of the phone, without any impatience in his voice, explained, "the coordinates are in Su Province, about controllable nuclear fusion. ”

Shawler asked, “STAR Institute? ”

“No comment. ”

Shaw had a headache: “Even if you told me you were studying nuclear fusion, this direction was too big. At the very least, you have to tell me exactly what you're doing and where you're working. ”

“The details of the study look at the arrangements over there, the place of work is still confidential," the man at the end of the phone said. “All you have to do is answer me if I don't want to go. ”

This…

What a tough request.

Shaw smiled bitterly in his heart and shook his head.

However, even if he thought so, he was only hesitant for two seconds between going and not going...

“Go.”

This opportunity is only once in a lifetime.

Intuition tells him if you miss it, it's gone.

The man on the other end of the phone answered very simply and said, "Okay, I'll take care of the formalities. Also, your ticket has been rescheduled and be sure to get in tomorrow afternoon at 3pm. ”

After that, the phone hung up.

Looking at the phone on his hand, Shaw had a strange look on his face.

Not only did he find out all the tickets he bought, but he even changed his signature for free in one sentence. This calls his own people. I'm afraid the background is not simple...

At least, definitely not from the Institute of Substances.

……

The following afternoon, when he arrived at his destination in a moving car and dragged his suitcase out of the car, Shawler stood outside the train station for less than half a minute and saw a black Jetta parked in front of him, sending him to that mysterious place of work.

As soon as he arrived at his destination, he was shocked by the situation on the scene.

It's not because it's too cold, it's just the opposite, it's kind of "lively” here.

More than a dozen buses were parked on empty spaces outside the factory and there was a variety of engineering equipment.

There are more than a dozen of them alone, and they are either top research institutes in the field of plasma physics in the country, or nuclear industry groups and nuclear workers are building these giants in the domestic field of nuclear power.

Invisible, he seemed to understand what kind of project he was involved in.

He just didn't think, and couldn't believe, that the STAR Institute was going so fast.

The world was speculating about how far they were from the demonstration reactor, and they had begun silently.

At this point, an old man, who looked like he was in his early fifties, walked over with a resume with a photo on it and called him.

“Your name is Shaw? ”

Xiaole nodded: “Yes. ”

“Well, you come with me. ”

After a glance at the driver who sent him, Xiao Le swallowed his mouth and immediately dragged his suitcase to follow him.

Barely keeping up with the old man, he couldn't help but ask about the situation here.

“I'm in charge of Tokamak. I think you guys are in charge of the star mimicry. Call me here...”

“I had nothing to do with what you said," take him to the institute, "the old man said expressionlessly,“ I'm only responsible for taking you in. If you have any questions, just ask that person. ”

That guy?

Who is it?

Though Shawler wanted to ask, he silently shut his mouth when he saw the old man with no intention of answering his questions about the Institute.

He looked around and asked an irrelevant question.

“With so many people, how can the problem of confidentiality be solved? ”

When I heard the question, the old man with no expression suddenly laughed.

“Boy, do you know what your grandpa's name is? ”

“… do not know. ”

Who's all right with this stuff.

Shawler spat in his heart.

The old man pointed to the driver who had sent him here earlier, not far behind him.

“Want to know, you can ask him. ”

……

The site selection requirements for nuclear power plants are very high.

In accordance with internationally accepted siting principles, geological, surface, meteorological, hydrological, environmental, civil, transport, power plant processes, grid, social and other factors must be strictly considered.

First, geographically, there must be no breaking zone deep inside the plant and there must be no active breakage within thousands of metres of the nuclear power plant. Nearby, 100 kilometres of sea and 50 kilometres of inland, there have been no more than six earthquakes in the history of the test.

Secondly, transport.

The entire reactor is designed to be several times more complex and larger than a fission reactor, and the components involved are unlikely to be produced locally in Su Province and can only be transported to the site for assembly after production everywhere.

Considering these factors in their totality, there are not many places in the entire province where this condition can be met.

Following discussions at the expert meeting and consultations with the provincial government, the location of the STAR-2 demonstration reactor was eventually set in the vicinity of the Tian Bay-Tian Bay nuclear power plant in Haizhou.

As soon as available resources are available here, the site reserved for Phase III of the Tian Wan nuclear power plant could be used as a demonstration reactor laboratory. Secondly, engineers here are experts in the field of nuclear power, have extensive experience and can help with the design of demonstration reactors and specific engineering issues.

As for security, there is no need to worry about the Ark at all.

Simultaneously with the completion of the selection of the demonstration reactor sites, a regimental combat unit has arrived in the region and has completed its deployment.

On the other hand, after the completion of the site selection, the ship then arrived at the site without interruption, carrying out field visits to the site with engineers from the Nuclear Industry Group and exchanging views on the design of the demonstration reactor.

At the same time, in less than a week, thousands of researchers and engineers from major research institutions have been assembled here.

In order to ensure that this work can proceed smoothly, the State has essentially fulfilled all the conditions set out by the Ark.

You want money, you want people.

“Man I brought," he walked into the lab with Shawler, and the old man put his resume on the table.

The ark nodded at him.

“Thank you very much. ”

The old man waved.

“Thank you for that little thing. You guys are busy. I'm leaving. ”

Upon leaving the office, the old man handcuffed the door.

Looking at the nervous Shaw, the Ark laughed and said.

“Relax, relax. I just wanted to ask you a few questions. ”

Shaw smiled, “Can you not be nervous when you see the idol? ”

Idol?

When he heard that, the ark laughed embarrassingly.

The young man is quite eye-catching.

He also believes that his face value has the potential to be an idol.

Here, obviously, is not the time to slap.

With a slight cough and a converging joke on his face, the ark asked: “I heard from the Institute of Substances that you studied at General Atomic Energy's DIII-D lab? ”

“Yes…” seemed to think that his answer was too simple and not respectful enough, Xiaole hastened to add, “I have been with Professor Li since I first read Bo, I studied there for four years, the longest time there. ”

The Ark laughed and said, "I know, that's why I let you come. ”

Speaking of which, he paused for a moment and continued.

“Now that you've been there for four years, I'm sure you know a lot about what's going on over there. With regard to their heating technology, I would like to know which direction they are mainly studying right now. What step have we taken? ”

Hearing the ark ask about its familiar area, Shawler immediately replied: “What they are studying is mainly the direction of ionic gyroscopic resonance heating, currently...”

Listen carefully to Shawler's instructions, the ark index finger rubbing against the chin, nodding from time to time.

It must be acknowledged that the heating and plasma diagnostic techniques of DIII-D are strong.

The latter has been superseded by the HE-3 atomic probe technology and need not be considered for the time being.

As for the former, although not of critical importance, it is nevertheless worth noting.

After all, the demonstration reactor would be different from the experimental reactor, which would be able to do so, but not the former.

Inadequacies in any technical detail will eventually be reflected in the efficiency of the energy output.

Moreover, through these detailed questions, combined with his own experience in controllable fusion research, he is also able to estimate roughly what step General Atomic Energy has taken in controllable fusion research and how far away it is from demonstration reactors.

Over the next period, the Ark asked a lot more about the progress of the experiment on DIII-D, and Shawler responded to what he knew.

Finally, the ark thought for a moment and said.

“Tokamak's heating unit doesn't exactly match the star mimetics, but the heating principle is the same. ”

“We intend to redesign a version of the ICRF heating antenna on the EAST device that can be used on the simulator. ”

“If you're interested in staying, I can introduce you to the clusters in this area. ”

Myself this is...

Got your thighs?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lao was thrilled and nodded immediately: “I do! ”

Indeed, agreeing to that phone call at the beginning is an incredibly correct choice...
