Chapter 401 Confusion
The trial run test on March 3 lasted for a full six hours.

Qinling Plasma Research Institute once again obtained a lot of valuable data, especially the test of superconducting magnetic fluid.

After Zhang Huaide looked at the data, he found another problem: "Chief engineer, I found that the boiler water temperature is not uniform. The water temperature in the area near the neutron squeeze reactor is as high as 870-900 degrees Celsius, while the water temperature in the peripheral area is 650-700 degrees Celsius."

"The center and the edge are heated unevenly. I think we can work hard on the magnetic fluid power generation pipeline. We can arrange the magnetic fluid power generation pipeline in various areas of the boiler to form a uniform distribution and avoid uneven heating." Liu Jingguan said.

"It seems that these magnetic fluid power generation pipelines need to be carefully designed." Zhang Huaide knew that it was impossible for a system to be so perfect from the beginning.

Just like a steam engine, the thermal efficiency was very low at the beginning, but after so many years of transformation by humans, the steam turbine with the highest efficiency is already comparable to the internal combustion engine.

Liu Jingguan and Zhang Huaide were discussing how to improve Jinwu No. [-].

The members of the inspection team not far away are lamenting the power of Jinwu No. [-].

"Fei Suo, can you sell us a prototype?" Shen Beihai said cheekily.

"Sell you a prototype machine? I can't decide this matter. I need to report it to the management committee of the research institute." Fei Anming thought for a while and replied.

"Then please." Shen Beihai thanked first.

People in academia like Shen Beihai, Yang Gang, and Li Zhong still have relatively simple ideas about this matter, but Fang Dongliang, Du Lidao, and Qi Anbang are different. The position determines the angle of viewing things.

"Controllable nuclear fusion is more influential than mass projectors. We need to carefully consider this matter." Qi Anbang said with a serious face.

"Indeed." Du Lidao also nodded.

After all, in the current energy structure of the world, primary energy such as oil, coal, and natural gas coexists with secondary energy such as electricity.

The realization of controllable nuclear fusion will inevitably lead to a sharp decline in the energy status of oil, coal and natural gas. For example, the northern natural gas pipeline and heating projects that have been dawdling before, Mao Xiong has been bargaining, and even wants to use this as a condition to obtain a share of the mass projector.

Now the negotiations on this project have been suspended, because controllable nuclear fusion has been realized, and it is enough to use electricity to boil water directly. Only when we are full can we use natural gas to boil water for heating.

"It must be done, but it cannot be rushed." Fang Dongliang set the tone.

"Based on the power generation scale of Jinwu No. 69, it is enough to build six Jinwu No. [-] across the country. In fact, there is no need for so many. After all, our solar, wind and hydroelectric power generation accounts for about [-]% of the country's power generation." Du Lidao said .

"I have an idea, since all the thermal power plants should be cut down, otherwise the waste will be used." Qi Anbang said suddenly.

"Does Vice Minister Qi have any good suggestions?" Fang Dongliang asked.

Qi Anbang expressed his thoughts: "The steam turbine in the thermal power station can be removed and installed in the nuclear fusion power station. I just saw the boiler water temperature and pressure of Jinwu No. [-]. They are designed for supercritical steam turbines. If the steam turbines in thermal power plants can be reused, part of the money can be saved.”

"This can be considered." Du Lidao agreed with Qi Anbang's idea.

"You guys are better at professional things, so I won't mix it up. We'll split into two groups. Mr. Du, you and a few experts will stay at the Qinling Plasma Research Institute for the time being. Deputy Qi and I will go to Beiping." Fang Dongliang ordered.

"can."

The inspection team was divided into two that night, Fang Dongliang and Qi Anbang quickly left for Beijing, while Du Lidao stayed behind.

In the laboratory of prototype No. 2, Shen Beihai and others who had just finished eating were communicating with Liu Jingguan. Shen Beihai and Liu Jingguan were colleagues before and were quite familiar with each other.

"Wait and see, if we discuss this neutron crushing method, will it leak the secret?" Shen Beihai is still very disciplined, after all, this kind of thing involves the secrets of controllable nuclear fusion.

"Haha, don't worry! Even if I put all the materials in front of you, if there is no NN-8-1 material, you will not be able to copy it." Liu Jingguan said with a smile.

"Eh... Jing Guan, you don't have to hit us hard!" Shen Beihai smiled wryly, if others heard this sentence, they might turn their faces immediately.

"To be honest, our chairman should take at least 80% of the credit for this technology." Liu Jingguan is very self-aware.

"Why do you say that? Didn't you propose the neutron crushing method?" Yang Gang asked in surprise.

"I really proposed the neutron squeeze method, but the NN-8-1 material was developed by the chairman. When I was researching the NN-8-1 material, I accidentally observed the working principle of the diesel engine, so I proposed the neutron. Squeeze method." Liu Jingguan explained.

"So it is." Yang Gang suddenly realized.

If there is no NN-8-1 material, it is more difficult to realize the neutron squeeze method than the tokamak device.

It can be seen that material science is the basis of most technologies. No matter how perfect it is in theory, to implement it in practice, the material must keep up, otherwise it will be a castle in the air.

"This NN-8-1 material shouldn't have been specially developed for controllable nuclear fusion in the first place, right?" Shen Beihai immediately realized.

"It's really not developed for controllable nuclear fusion. This material is used to make condensed matter shields." Liu Jingguan didn't hide anything. After all, the characteristics of the NN-8-1 material are there. Shen Beihai and the others will know sooner or later. of.

"Condensed matter shield?" Shen Beihai thought about it, and after a while he said uncertainly: "This condensed matter shield can resist nuclear fusion, which means it is also suitable for mushroom egg defense."

Liu Jing nodded.

The three of Shen Beihai shook their heads and laughed wryly, using degenerate materials as a shield, it was really difficult to crack with the current means of human beings.

After they communicated for most of the night, the three of Shen Beihai finally had a preliminary understanding of the technical principles of neutron crushing.

……

3 month 16 day.

Fang Dongliang and Qi Anbang, who rushed to Beiping overnight, did not even have a rest, so they reported the relevant situation that had been sorted out.

No one knows what they talked about, but the project of the nuclear fusion power plant started to be initiated by the Ministry of Energy in less than three days, and the project was secretly approved.

The above also communicated with Huang Haojie several times, but these PY transactions must be difficult for ordinary people to know.

It is initially planned to build two Jinwu-[-] nuclear fusion power plants in China. As for the follow-up plan, it depends on the effect of these two nuclear fusion power plants.

However, in order to confuse the public, the Dongtang Academy of Sciences and the Yinhe Research Institute Management Committee began to talk, and then all the gods also ended in person.

One said that controllable nuclear fusion was close to success, and the other said it was a fantasy, and the two sides talked about it.

Anyway, there are bricks and scholars coming out to refresh the screen every three days or so. The scolding battle between scientists is very hard-core. Today, neutron irradiation is debated, and tomorrow, plasma vortex is debated.

This kind of scolding battle in the air really made many people breathe a sigh of relief. If it really succeeded, they would not fight each other here, and directly put out the controllable nuclear fusion. Facts speak louder than words.

As for the 60 steam turbine generator sets, Neutron Star Materials Company has come out to refute the rumors, saying that these are going to be used by the Qinling X-ray base to upgrade the normal temperature superconductor production line.

In this way, the heat of controllable nuclear fusion was fired again.
