Chapter 393 Modifying the EAST device
Tokamak is a transliteration of Tokamak, the language of Da Maozi.

In fact, this Tokamak is a combination of the words toroidal (toroidal), vacuum chamber (kamera), magnet (magnit), and coil (kotushka). It was proposed by scientists from the Kurchatov Institute in the 1958s. came out, and then built the world's first tokamak device T-1 in .

The predecessor of EAST is the T-7 received from Da Maozi. It has been iteratively updated to the seventh generation. The accumulated technology and experience do not know how much more than ours.

Of course, it’s common to wake up early and catch up with a late set. Although Da Maozi was the proposer and the initiator, he was later surpassed by us and America.

In addition to being the seventh generation, the T-7 was also the world's first tokamak device using superconducting materials, which was undoubtedly extremely advanced at the time.

After the 1950s, controllable nuclear fusion entered the research focus of various countries, and quickly became the focus of research by various countries. Every country wants to be the first country in the world to achieve controllable nuclear fusion.

However, after more than fifty years of development, although the research on controllable nuclear fusion has developed rapidly, with major breakthroughs every once in a while, and the international community has united to build ITER, after the millennium, the world's scientific The world still cannot see the hope of successful controllable nuclear fusion, because the further forward the research is, the more problems there will be and the more difficult it will be to solve.

Take ITER as an example. The plan was launched in 1988, but construction officially started in 2006.

Then now in 2012, it has stopped.

There are many reasons, including intrigues, funding and other problems, but the core problem still lies in technology. It’s not that there are quality problems with key components, the cold screen components and vacuum chamber components that are responsible for the country and the EU are of poor quality; it’s that it’s difficult to choose the material for the first wall; or various problems that have not been considered before have arisen and have been considered...

Walking in from the door of the conference room, Zhao Mo was writing at his desk and didn't notice his arrival. When he got closer, he saw that he had already written on a stack of papers, about thirty pieces of paper. He was obviously concentrating on it. Doing your own thing. On the contrary, it was Zhao Mo's six students. Although they were carefully looking at the materials he had brought over, all six of them noticed his arrival and glanced at him one after another.

Gradually, more and more paper was used, and the sound of "swish, swish, swish" flowed out like a waterfall, startling the six students who were looking through the materials in the conference room.

After his rebirth, Zhao Mo did not enter this field to do research, but was consolidating his foundation, because he knew that if the foundation was solid, these studies would naturally be completed at a certain time.

They all looked at Zhao Mo with admiration and longing, admiring his great strength and eager to see what their mentor was writing.

Of course, in Zhao Mo's view, or in the view of most people, news reports about a breakthrough today and another breakthrough tomorrow are really of little use, because every time a breakthrough is reported, it is said that success is very close, but in just a few years, it will take a few years. It has passed, but there is no trace again, and it is still far from success.

Kuang Xiantao had some malicious thoughts in his mind.

This is too nonsense.

The information was written very quickly. Zhao Mo basically wrote without adding any details or pauses. The road ahead was smooth.

A large number of mathematical symbols, formulas, and detailed structural drawings appeared on the paper.

When it was almost five o'clock, Kuang Xiantao came over. He wanted to see what Zhao Mo was doing here all day, and also wanted to ask when he would give them the information he said "later".

Ever since, the helpless and bitter title "Forever Fifty Years" has become popular.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces, four pieces...

When he approached Zhao Mo, Kuang Xiantao hesitated for a moment and did not wake up Zhao Mo. Instead, he glanced over, curious about what Zhao Mo was writing.

But soon, he knew that he had misunderstood.

Anyway, people have become numb to such repeated reports, and they basically ignore this kind of news, including Zhao Mo.

"Does he want to play with us? He shouldn't have such low emotional intelligence, right?"

Before taking the Shenzhou 3 to space, Zhao Mo's idea was to wait for the country to collect soil from the moon before he could study the field of controllable nuclear fusion, but he would also start with helium in the lunar soil.

The six people looked at each other, but no one dared to step forward to ask. They quickly lowered their heads again and continued to read the information in their hands.

From late morning to 5pm?

It wasn't until he cracked the Yang-Mills equations that his thoughts suddenly changed, because his discoveries and progress far exceeded his previous expectations, and he had a certain degree of confidence to solve this super complex engineering problem in advance.

Before Zhao Mo was reborn, ITER still had not been completed. One time it was said to be 2025, and another time it was 2030. Anyway, it was not certain. On the contrary, domestic controllable nuclear fusion was in full swing, especially EAST, which was launched every once in a while. A big breakthrough.

The next moment, he saw that among the papers stacked on Zhao Mo's right hand side, the top one clearly showed a simple superconducting magnet structure, with superconducting poloidal field magnets, superconducting longitudinal field magnets and supports marked. The structure has three modules; and a tokamak device host machine, marked with several modules such as an external vacuum chamber, an internal vacuum chamber, and a superconducting magnet.

Next to the two devices, there are some parameters.

Some of the parameters looked very familiar and should have come from the EAST device he was responsible for.

There are also some parameters that are very special and some go against common sense.

Kuang Xiantao looked back at the superconducting magnet structure and the tokamak device mainframe drawn by Zhao Mo, and then discovered that the structures of these two devices were very different from EAST, like a modified EAST. Kuang Xiantao was suddenly startled: "He wants to modify my device?"

Thinking of this, Kuang Xiantao's face suddenly turned ugly and he frowned.

What he fears most is Zhao Mo tampering with the EAST device.

You must know that after more than 20 years of transformation, the EAST device has almost reached the technological limit that the current domestic scientific and technological level can achieve.

He didn't think that someone who just came here and read some of their information could effectively transform the EAST device!
Everyone can imagine what the consequences of failure to carry out effective transformation will be.

The consequences must be devastating!

Subconsciously, Kuang Xiantao was ready to interrupt Zhao Mo and warn him not to mess around.

But before he could speak, Zhao Mo, who had been writing at his desk, suddenly straightened up, stretched, put down the pen in his hand, and stopped working.

The next moment, Zhao Mo saw him standing in front of him, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and at the same time he said: "Director Kuang, you happen to be here. I will have someone copy some of these materials, and you will arrange to distribute them to the team. People, try to read it today, we will have a small meeting on these materials tomorrow morning, and then we will get started~"

While saying this, he waved to one of his students, motioning for him to come over. Then he stacked all the materials he had just finished writing on the table and gave them to him to copy.

Kuang Xiantao's mouth twitched: "So, the information Professor Zhao mentioned this morning was just written?"

He was still thinking about what Zhao Mo wrote was for. After all, the information showed the overall design plan at first glance. Although it was modified on the EAST device, it had also changed greatly, and it was most likely a future idea.

He never expected that the information he had just written out was the information that Zhao Mo said would be shown to them "later" and discussed at the meeting tomorrow!

This really surprised him~
"Yeah~"

Zhao Mo smiled and nodded, probably guessing some of his thoughts, but he didn't say anything. Then he looked at the time and saw that it was already five o'clock, so he changed the subject and said, "Director Kuang, I will be here tonight. Stay until eleven o'clock. If you have any questions, you are welcome to come to me to discuss. In addition, I still have some things to discuss with you, Director Kuang~"

Kuang Xiantao did not answer this, but frowned and asked: "Professor Zhao, I just read what you wrote. Are you planning to perform a major operation on the EAST device? You know, the EAST device has just been modified and upgraded. , if we reform at this time, who can bear the responsibility if something goes wrong?"

Zhao Mo smiled calmly and said: "It won't be a major surgery, it's just a slight adjustment. As for taking responsibility if something goes wrong, Director Kuang is overly worried about this, I will follow up."

Before it even started, Kuang Xiantao poured cold water on him and warned him, so he didn't need to be polite.

Kuang Xiantao's expression froze: "..."

Okay, you are an academician of the two academies and the director of the research center. If there is a problem, you can just take care of it.

He was too lazy to talk.

After a while, the materials were copied, and two students came over holding two thick stacks. Each piece of information was bound into a booklet, making it easy to carry and read.

Afterwards, the two followed Kuang Xiantao out to distribute information.

At half past five, Zhao Mo and others had dinner in the cafeteria under the hospitality of Kuang Xiantao.

After resting for only half an hour, Zhao Mo and the others returned to the conference room. Zhao Mo also invited Kuang Xiantao to talk to him about some of the problems and details that the EAST device has encountered over the years. At the same time, he was waiting to see if other members of the EAST team had any questions. What questions to ask.

What made Zhao Mo speechless was that no one from the EAST team came to ask questions until he went back to bed at 11 o'clock in the night.

Only then did Kuang Xiantao see the entire content of the information Zhao Mo wrote in the afternoon.

After reading it from beginning to end, Kuang Xiantao got a rough idea. Zhao Mo focused on transforming superconducting magnets, including the material composition and structural plan. As for why it was necessary to transform it into the plan he designed, there were theoretical explanations and data explanations next to it, but he didn't understand it.

It wasn't until he read it twice that Kuang Xiantao understood half of it. He vaguely knew that Zhao Mo wanted to create a more stable and powerful magnetic field with special properties that could powerfully and effectively turn the plasma. The body is confined in a vacuum chamber.

"Why do you want to transform it like this?"

Kuang Xiantao felt very puzzled and wanted to ask, but after looking at the complex mathematical operations in the information, he opened his mouth and then closed it again.

Forget it, let's wait until the meeting tomorrow.

However, Kuang Xiantao was disappointed because no one raised questions at the meeting the next day...
