Great Power Technology: Domination Of The World Starts With Chips

"The temperature reaches 100 million degrees! The timer starts!"

Someone shouted.

Seeing that the temperature had reached the minimum temperature required for controllable nuclear fusion, Xu Kaiyang immediately went to a nearby computer monitor and looked at it.

This monitor shows an infrared image of the interior.

Through this image, they can monitor the internal situation in real time.

Looking at the situation inside, Xu Kaiyang's eyes gradually lit up.

"The condition of the inner wall is very good, and we can't see any loss for the time being!"

This means that this carbon-tungsten-molybdenum alloy has met his expectations!

If it were replaced with the materials they used in the past, there may be a gap now.

He clenched his fist vigorously, and the faces of the people around who saw this scene also showed excited expressions.

They saw the promise of success.

"Continue to provide me with the temperature, let's see how long it can burn today! Also, the generator set, start the first generator now!"

"Yes! The generator set is starting!"

Someone on the walkie-talkie responded immediately, and after a while, they shouted again: "The generator set has started, and the power generation is increasing!...The power generation has reached 10kw!"

"The power generation reaches 100kw!"

...

As the power generation continues to increase, the time for the internal devices of EAST to maintain 100 million degrees is getting longer and longer, and it is not just 100 million degrees. Now it has reached 110 million degrees, and the time has come to 60 seconds.

"The generating power has reached 1mw, Academician Xu, the power of our first generator has reached the upper limit!"

The last time they burned to 101 seconds, the power of the generator reached one megawatt, and the power of their single generator was only one megawatt.

At that time, one megawatt had already reached the limit, because the loss of the inner wall was serious, so the second generator was not started.

However, the current situation is completely different from the last time, because the inner wall loss is not serious, and the thermal conductivity of the carbon-tungsten-molybdenum alloy is extremely good, so they let the first generator power reach the highest level so quickly .

Xu Kaiyang stood in front of the screen and continued to stare at the internal infrared image.

"Looking at the infrared image now, there is still no obvious loss of the inner wall, but the tolerance of the divertor needs to be considered."

Xu Kaiyang pondered: "Forget it, continue to turn on the second generator... No, every generator is turned on, let's stick to it to the end today!"

Anyway, judging from the current situation, the carbon-tungsten-molybdenum alloy has passed their test, and there is no problem with whether the EAST is bad or not. Tomorrow, he will fly to Shanghai to find the second elder, and apply for the approval of the national controllable nuclear fusion project the day after tomorrow.

At that time, a new one will be built, so he doesn't bother to feel bad.

And hearing what Xu Kaiyang said, every staff member became excited.

In the past, they didn't dare to burn it for a longer period of time because they were afraid of breaking the EAST, and it would be very troublesome to repair. Now they can finally burn it to their heart's content.

"Yes!"

Everyone agrees.

Yuan Wenyun next to him couldn't help but said: "Old Xu, if you continue to burn, the divertor may burn out. You haven't replaced the divertor with new materials, have you?"

Xu Kaiyang said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about that, next time it will be burned, I guess it won't be burned on this."

Yuan Wenyun was taken aback: "What?". Seven

Xu Kaiyang shook his head with a smile, but didn't say anything.

Yuan Wenyun realized what this guy meant, and felt even more depressed. He felt that he shouldn't be here today. Damn, look at this old guy's snarky look.

But there is no way, who let their circulator 2M device burn to 150 million degrees, he also showed off in front of Xu Kaiyang for a while.

They are all old enemies.

...

In the EAST device, the temperature continues to rise, and has reached 120 million degrees. At the same time, the burning time has also reached 98 seconds.

And many staff members are shouting at this time to time it.

"98!"

"99!"

"100!"

"101!"

"102!...Good!"

102, already surpassing their original record.

Of course, it was only 102 seconds, obviously far from reaching their limit.

Time is still going on, and the internal temperature has also broken through the 120 million mark and started to move towards the 130 million mark.

that's it.

200 seconds, 300 seconds...

And the power generation has also been increased to 10mw. Unfortunately, this is all their generators. They never thought that they would be able to achieve this level one day.

"Academician Xu, the internal temperature rise rate suddenly increased, exceeding our given function curve."

Suddenly someone said.

Xu Kaiyang's eyes flickered for a moment, then he stood up suddenly, and said to the walkie-talkie: "Now, turn off the heating system!"

A suspicious voice came from the intercom: "Academician Xu, are you going to stop?"

Xu Kaiyang said: "According to my judgment, the interior of the reaction chamber has now reached the limit of Lawson's criterion, and the temperature generated by the internal reaction can spontaneously maintain fusion conditions."

There was a moment of silence on the intercom, until finally a soft voice came, "Damn it..."

Obviously, the news came as a shock to everyone.

Let nuclear fusion react spontaneously, which will greatly reduce the energy input from the outside.

The input energy is reduced and the output energy is stable. As long as their input energy exceeds the output energy, it means that their controllable nuclear fusion can generate electricity externally.

They are very clear about how much energy consumption it takes to maintain more than 100 million degrees. Once the input energy is stopped, they will prepare a few more high-power generators. Maybe the output is greater than the input, and they will be born from them!

But it is a pity for everyone that they only have those ten generators.

"The heating system is being shut off."

"Ion cyclotron resonance heating system off, radio frequency wave heating system off, electron cyclotron resonance heating system off."

"The heating system is completely off."

Everyone continued to look at the reaction temperature.

After the heating system was turned off, the growth rate of the reaction temperature decreased significantly.

However, it is still heating up, and when it reaches 400 seconds, the temperature has not dropped.

This shows that, as Xu Kaiyang said just now, the internal environment has reached the state of Lawson's criterion.

They have reached another milestone in human fusion!

Of course, the milestones they reached today are more than enough!

Now, if you want to continue heating, you can increase the degree of internal reaction by injecting more deuterium-tritium gas.

However, the current internal temperature has reached 160 million degrees, which is the peak temperature ever reached by the EAST device.

And you must know that EAST only lasted 20 seconds when it was under 160 million degrees.
