You say you have an iron will, are you serious?

Chapter 394 Sure enough, it still doesn’t work?

“J/low/lim=4kph/ρd（T/cT/ap）/J/c……”

“Jw.c/△E=……”

“Jtr/△E=……”

"According to the assumption, the magnetic field provided by the modified superconducting magnet is expected to achieve stable operation of plasma at 1.6 million degrees Celsius for more than 300 seconds..."

……

Seeing Zhao Mo writing his design plan on the whiteboard, all the EAST team members in the conference room fell silent, with more or less confused expressions on everyone's face.

In addition to the fact that this information is very different from the EAST device and is full of mathematical calculations that are difficult to understand, it is also difficult for them to understand why Zhao Mo is so confident in his design?
They all worked with Zhao Mo for the first time. They only knew Zhao Mo from hearsay. They only knew that he was a very powerful young man who was very good at academics and scientific research projects. He was also very selfless in his work. Since then, he has been studying and working without interruption. He is a person with an "iron will".

Looking at it now, this powerful young man is indeed confident, not just ordinary self-confidence.

Of course, they admitted that Zhao Mo was very powerful, which was evident from the information he wrote and his on-site commentary.

So, something is bound to go wrong!

"Papa~"

impossible!

After explaining it again, Zhao Mo finally said.

What he got was still silence.

The disassembly of the EAST device, customization of new parts, assembly of new parts, etc. are all very time-consuming. Even the simplest transfer often takes a week or two.

But they didn't speak, didn't ask any questions, didn't look at Director Kuang, and didn't say anything?

Among the crowd, Xu Wei, a backbone, subconsciously looked at Kuang Xiantao. Seeing Kuang Xiantao frowning and not speaking, he also stopped talking. He just thought secretly in his heart: "Lao Kuang told me not to stand up. Well, I'll let you toss it." Well, let’s see how you go about it if you fail!”

However, many people still think this way in their hearts, and do not think that Zhao Mo's transformation plan can be useful, or that it can achieve the experimental goals designed by Zhao Mo.

Zhao Mo then clapped his hands and said, "Since everyone is fine, I guess you understand, so let's get started~"

They didn't need to see whether the results were great, but looking at this information, they knew that except Kuang Xiantao, no one else in the conference room could compare with him.

As the saying goes, watch you build a tall building, watch you entertain guests, and watch your building collapse!

The transformation process is a very long process, and the time is often measured in years.

Xu Wei "clearly understood" what Kuang Xiantao warned him yesterday. If Zhao Mo wants to show off, just let him show off. Sooner or later something will go wrong. Can he really achieve controllable nuclear fusion in a short time?

This kind of behavior is very annoying, but he didn't say anything. As long as he understood how to do it next, it was fine. It didn't matter if he was reluctant or didn't understand why he was doing it.

Of course, Zhao Mo didn't want to waste this time, so he stayed at the site every day and traveled to parts manufacturing suppliers from time to time.

In the document, Zhao Mo demonstrated in detail the EAST transformation plan, which not only requires familiarity with tokamak theory, familiarity with superconductivity, and data from the EAST device, but also requires familiarity with high-energy physics and turbulence. If any of these things are listed individually, they have reached an incredible height, which is beyond the reach of many people present, not to mention that Zhao Mo has studied everything to an incredible height by himself, which is extremely powerful.

Wow~
Suddenly, there was a noise in the conference room. It was the sound of stools sliding on the floor after everyone stood up.

"Isn't this possible?"

Zhao Mo looked around at everyone in the conference room and roughly understood what they were thinking. It's just that you are the chief official, and we all listen to you.

When something goes wrong with Zhao Mo and he can't leave, it's time for their original team to come out and clean up the mess. At that time, what reason does the country have to "stuck" their EAST team?
"... If you have any questions, feel free to ask them. I don't want anyone to still not understand when I start the project renovation later, or ask me why I want to do this, or refuse to implement my plan~"

The key component to be modified is the superconducting magnet, which is a device that generates a magnetic field and is also the first wall directly facing the plasma, which is extremely difficult. The first is to confine the extremely high-temperature plasma. The first wall material must withstand extremely high temperatures, which can easily reach 1000 degrees Celsius and may rise to 3000 degrees Celsius at any time. The second is the high-energy neutron radiation generated during the nuclear fusion process, which will frequently The impact on the first wall material causes irreversible damage to the material; finally, the current superconducting magnets need to work at extremely low temperatures, which can easily be more than degrees below zero, which requires a balance between extremely high and extremely low temperatures. …

On the one hand, there is extremely high temperature radiation from plasma, and on the other hand, it needs to work at extremely low temperatures. Isn’t this a difficult problem?
The superconducting material of the EAST device is extremely low-temperature superconducting. Zhao Mo did not change the material during this transformation. The normal-temperature superconducting magnet he expected has not yet been designed, so this time it was just dismantled and upgraded.

A balance between extremely high and extremely low temperatures was not required for this experiment.

Zhao Mo did not include this problem in his plan, because after the advent of room-temperature superconducting magnets in the future, the difficulty of this problem will be greatly reduced, and it may even no longer be a problem.

From March to April, for a whole month, EAST's superconducting magnet was finally disassembled.

Another half month passed, and by mid-April, all the modularly assembled superconducting magnets were transferred to the workshop for transformation.

The long time made Zhao Mo, who was watching the whole process, feel a little tired.

You know, all the attributes of his body have been upgraded to LV9, and his endurance is more than ten times that of LV8. But now he also feels a little tired. You can imagine how unbearable this process is.

However, this fatigue did not affect him. He still worked and studied energetically every day, like a sponge, tirelessly absorbing all the knowledge he saw. Another month and a half later, by June, the transformation work of the superconducting magnet was finally completed, and then in mid-June, the EAST device began to enter the reassembly stage.

This speed is already very fast.

According to Kuang Xiantao, the engineer and director in charge of the project, everyone has a strong sense of urgency and dare not slack off at all. The work efficiency is extremely high, so the workload that originally took a year was completed in three months.

Assembly is a longer process than disassembly and modification.

If it is a stellarator, the assembly process alone needs to be calculated in "years".

Tokamak is much simpler than stellarator, but time is also calculated in "months", so there is no rush.

It was not until mid-August that the assembly process finally came to an end, and the entire transformation process finally came to an end.

Everyone who participated in this renovation project breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone had a smile on their face, and they started talking about it.

Zhao Mo had no reaction, because this was only the first step in the long march, and the next experiment was the most important.

The night after everything was completed, Zhao Mo treated everyone to a sumptuous dinner to celebrate the successful completion of the renovation project.

"I hope it will succeed~"

Five months of running in, almost everyone's impression of Zhao Mo has undergone a reversal change, and everyone knows what kind of person he is.

However, this does not change their thinking about this renovation project much, because this is a very serious scientific research issue and has nothing to do with life.

"The material is still the original material. Being able to reach 2500 million degrees Celsius is already the material's endurance limit. Could it be that changing the structure can improve the material's endurance?"

While chatting while eating, Xu Wei still expressed his pessimism.

During the dinner, everyone also chatted about some off-topic topics. What concerns researchers like them the most is the news related to this year's Nobel Prize. Everyone is speculating on who will win the prize.

Zhao Mo sat at the main table, smiled lightly, and did not participate in these topics.

"A lot of things have changed. This year's Nobel Prize should be more lively than the previous one. I just don't know if the Literature Prize will also be affected by this? It should be~"

Zhao Mo was not impressed by the other winners of this year's Nobel Prize, but he was still impressed by the winner of the Literature Prize. Who won it this year was the Chinese writer Moissan.

Literature is a matter of benevolence and wisdom, but it is undeniable that Moissan’s award is largely due to Western culture’s bullying of our country. Western culture likes to take out the dross of our culture with a magnifying glass and magnify it. Promote and criticize.

The team is more concerned about the research progress of America's controllable nuclear fusion.

The small book is still working slowly, the European Union is still working slowly, and Hans Cat is also working slowly. Only America is progressing faster, unusually fast. According to news reports, the ignition test has made new and big progress.

Zhao Mo just smiled slightly and didn't care.

A night without words~
The next day, the modified EAST device was started and some "warm-ups" were done before the formal experiments.

By September 9st, Zhao Mo saw that everything was ready and all parameters of the EAST device were running normally, so he issued the order for the formal experiment.

On the same day, Tang Yao, leader of the Ministry of Science and Technology, flew to Luzhou specially and came to the site to watch the first formal experiment after the modification of the EAST device.

hum!
When the EAST device was started, a huge buzzing sound exploded, and the experiment began~
Everyone in the team, including Zhao Mo, stared nervously at the large screen displaying parameters, on which various experimental parameters were beating. Among them, temperature is the first to focus on.

Soon, plasma was detected~
Immediately afterwards, the temperature of the plasma began to rise sharply!
"1000 million degrees Celsius~"

"2000 million degrees Celsius~"

"2600 million degrees Celsius~"

In a very short period of time, measured in seconds, the temperature of the plasma suddenly climbed to 2600 million degrees Celsius.

As soon as this parameter came out, someone immediately exclaimed: "It has exceeded the last 2500 million degrees Celsius!"

Be it Kuang Xiantao or Xu Wei, their expressions suddenly changed.

Just when the two thought that the temperature would rise again and set an even more amazing record, an experimenter suddenly reported urgently: "Professor Zhao, there are high-energy particles that have removed impurities from the internal metal parts~"

Zhao Mo, who had always looked calm, suddenly frowned and said immediately: "Pause for now~"

"Sure enough, it still doesn't work~"

Xu Wei murmured to himself, confirming his previous judgment.
