Chapter 1485: Key to 2nd Generation Controllable Fusion

The reform of scientific research funding has caused a lot of enthusiasm within the East Asia Power Group.
Cut off half of the scientific research projects, strict approval of funds ...
Although this pair of scissors has not yet fallen, everyone is worried that they will eventually fall on themselves.
I am worried but worrying. Generally speaking, everyone ’s mood is relatively stable.
Especially for those grass-roots scientific researchers who do not see the early days and work diligently, although Lu Zhou's approach is somewhat tough, it can even be said to be unfriendly, but it is quite popular.
I say a word of heart, they have long been fed up with those who rely on nepotism, but they are not capable of doing anything big, and only rely on the power in their hands to do whatever they want in the department.
As for those who are confused, are they satisfied with their reforms ...
Lu Zhou didn't care and didn't want to bother.
他 In his opinion, at this moment, East Asia Power is already a giant who is ill. If you want to cure the ills on it, you must get fierce medicine.
Cleaning up tapeworms is only the first step.
第二 The second step is to sweep out those people who are fooling around!
He is not unfriendly to Lu Zhou, and he doesn't mind raising a few idle people in other positions. But as a scholar, he must have zero tolerance in scientific research!
Because he knows exactly what it is like to give his life to scientific research, but in the end he doesn't get any attention, and in turn will be invaded by academic achievements.
As long as he is still sitting in this chairman's position for a day, he will certainly not allow this unfair thing to happen under his own eyes!
Moreover, he didn't expect the tapeworms and to help him get the engineering miracle such as the second-generation controllable fusion.
I do not want to contribute, it is better to get home early.
Uh ...
After the conference was over, Lu Zhou, who had arranged the work of various departments, immediately put it into the research of the second-generation controllable fusion technology.
Although he doesn't know the rules of this era, it is all about research.
Choose a general direction, and then through trial and error, explore a feasible path. From the standpoint of a chief designer, what he needs to do is to plan the framework of the entire large-scale scientific research project, select a few of the most likely technical routes, and then formulate a strategic direction for academic leaders in various fields , And do everything possible to reduce the number of trial and error and time costs.
The three problems facing the second-generation controllable fusion technology are basically the same as those he faced in the first-generation controllable fusion technology.
The difference is just the difficulty.
The scattering cross sections of tritium and deuterium are much smaller than that of deuterium and tritium. The cross section of the former at 300 keV is only 0.8b, which is much smaller than the latter, so it requires more energy input, and the fusion conditions are more severe.
To give an intuitive example, the same fusion reactor can achieve the DT reaction-that is, the temperature of the deuterium and tritium reaction, only 100 million degrees is enough.
However, if you want to make the fusion reaction between deuterium and helium three, and make the reaction stable, the required temperature is a few billion degrees directly.
Thallium temperature is just one of these elements.
Including density and constraint time, these three are indispensable.
According to the documents reviewed by Lu Zhou, so far, the core problems faced by the second-generation controllable fusion have mainly focused on the reaction temperature.
In particular, how to confine and compress high-temperature plasma in a very small area.
的 The strength of the magnetic field needed to achieve this will be a very scary number.
However, although there are so many difficulties, Lu Zhou doesn't think this is an unsolvable problem.
When he was designing a generation of controllable fusion cores, he had also worried about the same problem. At that time, the situation was not more optimistic than now. Many key technologies, including computational materials science, have just emerged as a fuzzy bud, and they are still at the concept stage.
However, in that era, he still brought a group of excellent engineers and scholars to complete the miracle in the history of human science.
If it can be done in the past, he has reason to believe that in the future where science and technology are more developed, he will certainly be able to complete this miracle again!
Office of the Chairman.
I came to Tang Yunyu who reported to the group building, and now he was standing at his desk with a sullen expression on his face, looking at the great man from a hundred years ago uneasily and curiously.
Probably in the morning, he received an email from Academician Lu.
In the email, Academician Lu offered him an invitation, hoping that he could come to the group building and have questions about the second-generation controllable fusion project, and he planned to discuss with him.
Strictly speaking, Tang Yunhuan is not studying second-generation controllable fusion. He is only a senior researcher in the Electromagnetic Research Laboratory. His usual work is to meet and research, and to design magnetic field containers for East Asia Power's reactors.
He really couldn't understand why Academician Lu found himself such an unknown little pawn.
When he was hesitant to say hello, Lu Zhou, who was sitting behind his desk, spoke succinctly.
"Sit down."
"Thank you."
I watched Tang Yunji sitting on the sofa, Lu Zhou went straight to the topic and continued.
"I have read your thesis. In the field of electromagnet research, you have put forward a lot of interesting design ideas and ideas, and many of them have made my eyes shine."
I was praised by Academician Lu. Tang Yundi's heart couldn't help but be a little proud, but he said modestly.
"You have won a prize. The research results are not just me."
"No matter who is credited, it is impossible to be that Liu Sihai."
Looking at Tang Yun 舸 who was thrown there like an honest man, Lu Zhou paused for a moment before continuing.
"According to my calculations, I need a magnetic field capable of generating 10,000T intensity in a small space to constrain the high-temperature plasma in the reactor core."
"Can it be done?"
"Almost ... impossible," Tang Yunyi said with a distressed expression on his face. "With the current technology reserves of East Asia Power, the strongest electromagnet we can make, the magnetic field strength is only in the early 5000T and maintained Time is less than 50 milliseconds, and it cannot be used to power the core at all. As for 10,000T ... not to mention how long it can be maintained, this is too exaggerated. "
概念 What is the concept of 10000T?
Intuitively, the MRI instrument used in general hospitals is about 3T. It only takes 13T to float the frog in the air.
Most ordinary people cannot imagine how terrible a 10,000 Tesla is.
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Have no hope at all?"
I met Lu Zhou's sight ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Tang Yunzheng just prepared to give a positive answer, but at this moment there was a moment of hesitation.
Do you really have no hope?
I won't let it happen.
But in East Asia Power ...
He really couldn't see a little hope.
After struggling for a while, Tang Yun 舸 finally took a deep breath and bit his teeth.
"It's not completely hopeless ... but the current situation of the Electromagnet Research Laboratory is no different from that without hope!"
"Oh?" Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows, looked at him and asked, "It seems you have something to say."
Tang Yunji smiled bitterly, and was about to speak about the problems of the electromagnet research laboratory.
At this moment, however, there was a sound of footsteps outside the chairman's office.
The door knocked twice, and then the door was pushed open.
I saw Lu Zhou's office secretary, anxiously appeared at the door.
"Lu, Academician Lu, it's not good!"
I looked at the office secretary standing in front of the office, Lu Zhou frowned slightly.
"What happened?"
There was a look of anxiety on his face, and the secretary couldn't even breathe, and said nervously.
"Electromagnet Research Lab!"
"They strike!".
