Chapter 468: This is the basic material


Li Hao is glad that Xinghai Explorer 1 has successfully repaired the moon and the silicon gold crystal mining operation has resumed again.
He received a message from the research building that they had developed superconducting materials that could be used by mass accelerators.
After Li Hao learned the news, he immediately rushed to the scientific research building.
This news is the most important news of his time.
The application of superconducting materials is too extensive, this is a basic material.
Its breakthrough will bring more scientific and technological achievements.
The most important applications are the three major fields of generators and motors, energy, and power transmission.
Li Hao thought of these three basic applications of superconducting materials, and he was almost happy to shed water.
Just to say that in the field of energy, the biggest application of superconducting materials is to build nuclear fusion devices.
The most likely way to accomplish fusion now is the tokamak device.
Li Hao also searched in the science and technology library for nuclear fusion technology that meets the level of earth technology.
It is the use of a super strong magnetic field to constrain the ion fusion reaction.
This technology is almost the same as the Tokamak device.
This type of nuclear fusion device is almost the easiest to use. The best device to get started.
But no matter what kind of magnetic restraint device, it wants to exert its design ability.
Superconducting materials of good quality are essential.
Now that superconducting materials have made breakthroughs, it is conceivable that nuclear fusion technology is also about to enter the fast track of development.
If nuclear fusion technology is turned on, then humans will have no shortage of energy now.
Human development has been constrained by energy scarcity.
If sufficient energy supply can be made, this will greatly change the current way of social development.
The change of superconducting materials to the power transmission field has played a greater role.
Power transmission materials can include not only wires on utility poles, but also wires inside various appliances.
According to the laws of physics, as long as the material has resistance. When a certain current is passed, a heating phenomenon is bound to occur.
This heating phenomenon can sometimes have a fatal effect on the equipment.
As long as these photos are converted into superconducting materials, the performance of the device will almost double.
Superconducting materials also have a huge impact on the field of electrical energy transmission.
At present, the overall layout of China Electric Power is less in the east and more in the west. Huge electrical energy must be transmitted from the west to the east.
The mainstream transmission method uses UHV transmission, and its operation and maintenance costs are very high.
The reason for using this method is because the voltage is higher. The smaller the current generated on the wire, the less heat it generates.
In this way, the loss of electrical energy on the transmission line and the heating of the equipment can be controlled to a certain extent.
But as long as wires and transformers made of superconducting materials are used to deliver electricity.
Even if the voltage is low, the length of the wire is very large. But it does not generate any heat.
The electric energy can be transmitted from the power generation end to the user end without loss.
At present, the loss of energy transmission in big cities is about 15%.
The loss of electricity transmission in remote rural areas is as high as 50% to 60%.
Take Huaxia as an example, every year it is just the loss of electric wires, and the power consumed is as high as 100 billion kWh.
In the field of power generation, using superconducting coil magnets, the magnetic field strength of the generator can be increased to 5T, and there is almost no energy loss.
This type of generator is an AC superconducting generator.
The superconducting generator's single-unit power generation capacity is more than 10 times higher than conventional generators, reaching 10,000 MW.
But the volume is reduced by half, the weight of the whole machine is reduced by half, and the power generation efficiency is doubled.
The most useful use of superconducting materials is in ultra-high torque motors.
Magnets made of superconducting material can make the motor generate a super strong magnetic field of up to 10T.
This huge torque motor can accomplish many incredible applications.
If space elevators are really deployed. Only one such high-torque motor can lift thousands of tons of materials into geosynchronous orbit.
Li Hao thought that such a large torque motor was indeed a space elevator.
But it is not for the earth, but for the moon, Mars, etc., and the planets to be developed in the future.
Superconducting materials do not only make high torque motors.
It makes small electric motors and also has very good performance.
The small electric motor with extremely high torque can make the robot joints more flexible and the robot's power becomes more huge.
Superconducting materials can do too much. This is the result of breakthroughs in basic technology.
Li Hao soon came to the scientific research building, and Bi Ye led the scientific researchers to cheer.
Seeing their wanton release, Li Hao could imagine the difficulty of studying superconducting materials.
The ability and perseverance required to study this material are indispensable. But more luck is needed.
He walked to Bi Ye and patted him on the shoulder. Congratulations: "You have worked hard this time. I did not expect to complete the development of superconducting materials so quickly.
Every scientific researcher has made a contribution and must be counted well. Give them certain rewards in accordance with our company's rules and regulations. "
Bi Ye turned to look at the cheering scientific researcher, and he nodded earnestly, "General Manager Li is assured that I will arrange the reward work."
"By the way, superconducting materials were jointly developed by you and Guo Jianzhen. Why isn't he here?"
Li Hao turned around and swept around. No Guo Jianyu was found. He asked Bi Ye.
"Guo Jianguo will deal with the manufacturing process of superconducting materials, and soon the construction of a mass accelerator will begin.
This project requires a large amount of superconducting materials. Now the manufacturing process is just researched, so that the intelligent industrial group can quickly produce more superconducting materials.
"
"Director Bi, do you know the cost of superconducting materials?" Li Hao asked the graduate.
He is very concerned about the cost of superconducting materials, if the cost of making such superconducting materials is too high.
Such superconducting materials can only be used in special fields and cannot be popularized.
The cost of building huge mass accelerator coils is also higher.
"The cost should not be too high ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I heard Director Guo Jianyu said that its cost should be about three times that of Yanjin Materials." Bi Ye thought and responded.
"This cost, that's acceptable. After the expansion of production equipment, the cost should be able to come down a bit." Li Hao said with satisfaction.
He also instructed Bi Ye: "Now that you have superconducting materials, your physics laboratory and some of the scarce large-scale equipment can be officially launched.
The physics major is a high-input and high-output major. It is necessary to use more advanced equipment to study better results.
Previously limited by materials, they required too much power.
Now that there are superconducting materials, the required electrical energy has been reduced exponentially. "
"Ok Lee, we will start working on these devices."
Bi Ye replied happily that they could finally start playing with large devices like their international counterparts.
