Chapter 1743 I'll Give You Two Billion Dollars

With sufficient energy supply, they can directly use their high-energy laser cannon to launch the instantaneous electric current released by this thing into outer space.

High-energy laser weapons do not need to be recharged at all. After all, the current released by this thing is huge in a short time, which just meets the powerful energy requirements of high-energy laser weapons and electromagnetic guns.

"This device is the model of the z-pinch-driven fusion-fission hybrid energy reactor you mentioned before, designed by us under various theoretical research and using some simple small experiments conducted in our laboratory. Under the conditions, it is possible to simulate the reaction of our experimental model. Boss, you should take a look first, and then let's talk about it. This is better..." Martin said with a grimace.

Liu Yijiu nodded.

Yang Feng also waited expectantly for Lao Maozi to introduce them to the small nuclear reactor.

"In these square objects in the outer array, there is a magnetic field pressurized part made of superconducting materials such as niobium-titanium alloy, and the middle connecting pipeline is a particle acceleration channel. The internal pipeline magnetic field controls the stable operation and continuously accelerates. Accelerate the particles to the speed we need, and hit the nuclear fusion zone of the intermediate reactor. Each channel is connected to a small nuclear fission target chamber to produce nuclear fission. The pressure and temperature caused by fission meet the requirements of fusion. At that time, the fission in the most central fission reaction zone started to generate huge energy, and it was output by the z-pinch device made of graphene and other materials around the reactor..." Following Martin’s explanation, in front of the computer Stanley Pons kept zooming in on the location area explained by Martin, and on the surrounding monitors are the technical core design drawings showing relevant technical information and detailed locations.

Under this explanation, it is very intuitive to understand how the entire reactor operates.

Huge devices, it can be said that most of them are magnetic devices used to accelerate particles in the initial stage, and magnetic devices that restrict particle transportation during particle acceleration, and even restrict intermediate nuclear fusion reactions.

Every time a part is introduced, related technologies and materials will appear on the surrounding display screens, which are clear at a glance.

Liu Yijiu secretly smacked his tongue.

He has always believed that by opening a window to scientists, they will give you a world.

Isn't this the model in front of me?

Looking at the structure, he thought it was the most advanced Julong No. 1 in the world developed by his world republic. After learning about the internal operation and structure, he knew that this was completely different. To some extent, it is much more advanced than Julong One, which will take at least two decades to appear.

There is no other reason, thanks to Director Liu's guidance in theory and research directions.

Julong-1 is an ultra-high-power pulsed high-current accelerator, not a nuclear reactor.

"According to this model, when the entire reactor is in operation, it needs a huge amount of energy to generate enough magnetic force, right? That is to say, this reactor needs external energy to start up when it is not working? "Liu Yijiu's vision is harsh.

"Yes, it needs energy to start the first time, but after each reaction, enough energy will be stored in the energy storage battery at the bottom for the next start. This is like a car engine needs a battery The power is like a fire..." Martin nodded affirmatively."This is not a conventional nuclear energy reaction system. Even if it is a conventional nuclear power plant, it needs energy to start up!"

The entire reactor requires an external magnetic field to control the acceleration of the particles, and through the control of the magnetic field, a huge pressure and high temperature are applied to the nuclear fusion process at the most central position to ensure that there will be enough high temperature and high pressure after the collision of the two atoms. Let their nuclei fuse into a neutron.That is, the deuterium atom and the tritium atom collide with the nucleus in a high temperature and high pressure environment, and the two nuclei will polymerize to generate neutrons and helium-4.

At the same time, in this process, huge energy is released.

Atomic energy is directly converted into electricity through a device made of graphene and other materials outside the reactor.

This is a subversive way of energy conversion.

Once successful, there is no need to use steam turbines to generate electricity like conventional nuclear reactors!

Conventional commercial nuclear power plants and military nuclear reactors use the high temperature and pressure generated by the nuclear energy release process in nuclear reactors to heat circulating cooling water, thereby turning water into steam, and using steam to drive the operation of steam turbines to generate electricity.

The nuclear reaction area is small, but it requires a huge cooling system, and the huge energy produced by the cooling system is used to drive the steam turbine to perform power movement, converting nuclear energy into electrical energy.Therefore, nuclear power plants are large enough, which is why nuclear reactors cannot be miniaturized.

Unlike nuclear weapons, during the reaction process, there is no restriction and control on the reaction at all.In this way, the energy and radiation released during the nuclear reaction will diffuse to the surroundings, causing serious damage.

"Is the technology reliable?" Liu Yijiu suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked them.

"According to the simulation of the computer model, the experiment is reliable. However, we cannot guarantee it at present, because there will be some differences between the theory and the actual situation that we cannot fully think of." Martin Fleischman did not pack a ticket.

This matter, no one dare to pack tickets.

In scientific research, no one ensures that they can predict any situation before.

"Liu, maybe you should take a look at our supercomputer to simulate the operation of the entire reactor. All parameters are set according to actual conditions. We also obtain many problems from the reaction process of the experimental model. So far, we have been unable to obtain more from computer simulations..." Seeing that Liu Yijiu did not question that they changed the project, it was originally just a cold fusion nuclear battery project research, and now it has become a cold fusion nuclear reaction. Research project, Stanley Pons said to Liu Yijiu, "The process was really spectacular!"

"Let's take a look!" Liu Yijiu naturally wanted to see.

In order to save research funds, the Ninth Institute currently has more than 15 supercomputers in the entire base, and after breakthroughs in computer processor technology, the supercomputers in their hands are gradually upgraded to ensure that all the projects of the entire Ninth Institute can be simulated. , Thereby saving research funds.

Huge supercomputers use neural network technology to network, and all the computing power of these supercomputers are integrated into the network constructed by the entire computer group. In which area needs more computing power, the supercomputer network system will be deployed. This also improves the utilization of these supercomputers.

It can be said that there are 15 supercomputers in the Ninth Hospital Base, and these 15 supercomputers can also be regarded as supercomputers in a supercomputer.No one is boring to study the maximum computing speed of their entire supercomputer network. If it is enough, it will be enough. If it is not enough, continue to upgrade all supercomputers.

Otherwise, how can such a large number of large-scale projects as the Ninth Institute be developing rapidly even with limited funds?

The project has made a breakthrough. First build the model in the computer, run the simulation, find the problem, make the modification, and wait until the problem is not found and the design is mature before production, so as to ensure that the manufacturing will not be continuously improved while testing.

This is why Martin and their projects so far have not had a practical application model.

"You are optimistic, this picture can only be seen in science fiction movies, and even science fiction movies cannot shoot such a spectacular scene..." Martin said to Liu Yijiu. At this time, Stanley has already begun to use him. To the authority to issue commands to mobilize the required computing power to the entire system.

The words "please wait, resource allocation..." appeared on the largest display in the middle. There were no avatars, and no electronic synthetic sounds, only these few Chinese characters.

For this situation, Liu Yijiu was not surprised at all.

This is the basic achievement of the artificial intelligence team of the Ninth Academy.

It took a full three minutes before the supercomputer group network gave the prompt "Resource deployment is complete, please complete the experiment as soon as possible to avoid other projects being put on hold".

As the text disappeared, some lines began to appear on the largest display in the middle.

With the continuous increase of lines, it is possible to clearly see how the various important components in the entire reaction device are assembled.

It's like building blocks.

"Every time you experiment, you need to conduct a modeling process like this?" Liu Yijiu clearly knew what this was doing.

For a computer group composed of 15 internationally most advanced supercomputers, it will not take too long to build such a complex model.

"Yes, although this is a waste of time and computing power, we believe that we can continue to repeat the modeling, so that design problems can also be found, and the computer will also simulate the problems encountered in the construction process..." Lao Maozi The words made Liu Yijiu noncommittal.

Obviously, they had never had such a chance to have such an advanced supercomputer computing power before. This was entirely out of a hobby.

In ten minutes, the model Liu Yijiu saw before appeared again.

In this process, let him know more about the whole design.

On the small screen around the big screen, a series of data flashed rapidly from the beginning. When the middle model screen was fixed, these data disappeared, replacing the data of different areas and different functions.

Various data also appeared on more display screens around.

Some screens show the status of each magnetic system, some display pressure, temperature, and some more, start to appear speed, etc...

On the main display screen, a flashing red icon began to appear, and the icon read "Please press the confirm key to confirm whether to start the simulation."

"Trigger!" Seeing Liu Yijiu looking around on the various screens, Martin asked if he could start, Liu Yijiu nodded, and the sloppy old man suddenly changed his temperament, almost roaring out. .

Stanley, who was operating the computer, had already pressed the Enter key heavily.

On the surrounding screens, the data began to flicker again.As for the model display on the main screen in the middle, the screen began to flicker slightly, and Liu Yijiu knew that this was the vibration at the beginning of the simulation.

In the picture, electric lights began to faintly appear in the surrounding square device, and then these electric lights began to increase toward the middle area. Yao's dazzling light began to appear in several nuclear fusion reaction chambers the size of a thumb. Then, the middle area appeared. With a bright light cluster like the sun, the moment this light cluster appeared, it released countless purple electric glows from the complex structure on the reactor...

When Liu Yijiu saw this model, his eyes were about to fall off, and the mouth that could squeeze a fist was completely unable to close...

"How much money does it take to make an experimental model?" I don't know how long it took before Liu Yijiu reacted more.Looking at the various data appearing on the surrounding display screens, such a small device, in just ten seconds, from the initial start-up of each capacitor space and the 300,000 joules of electric energy stored in the battery are released through the enlarged circuit , Generating a magnetic field of more than 200,000 atmospheres, allowing particles to accelerate to 14.8 kilometers per second in such a short passage and time The generated huge magnetic field constrains the nuclear fusion reaction chamber rushing to the center. The high temperature, high pressure and magnetic field in each fission reaction chamber collide together in almost one hundred billionth of a second...

The nuclear fusion releases a power of 88.7 gigawatts of power, 470 kilojoules of energy, in just one hundredth of a second, it is converted into a current of tens of millions of amperes and sent out...

Liu Yijiu spoke with difficulty, asking how much money he needed.

"How long can it be built."

Money and time are things that must be considered.

"According to our simulation experiment, we need approximately $1.7 billion in experimental funding... If everything goes well, we can conduct the experiment before your National Day in 1999!" Martin licked his lips.

"I'll give you two billion dollars! I don't ask for faster, but I need you to guarantee the quality and absolutely nothing can happen. In addition, the location of this experimental construction must be outside the base, not inside the base." Liu Yijiu thought for a while and said seriously.

Such a reactor generates too much energy, once a holding explosion occurs...
