Annihilation of the solar system

Chapter 53 Fusion Reactors

The message prompt on the screen reads:

"4% of the file downloads of "Design and Application of 2h Controllable Nuclear Fusion Reactor" total 742.5g."

He took a sip of the hot tea his wife had made. He wanted to click in and take a look, but his phone showed that the storage was insufficient and the download was suspended. He guessed that it was a research report sent by a research group below or a paper by a certain student.

He was about to put down his phone when he thought something was wrong. No academic research report or paper file would be as large as 700g. Could it be that a colleague or friend was joking with him?

But it wasn't right if he thought about it carefully. It would have been possible in normal times, but in the current situation, I'm afraid no one would have the heart to make such an unkind joke. The more he thought about it, the weirder he got up and hurried upstairs. I came to the study room, turned on my computer and downloaded the entire email to my computer to see what was going on.

The rain outside the window has splashed the glass on the window with stars. The window is dark, and the brilliant night scene that once reflected the red sky now only has a few mottled spots like fireflies.

Shen Manling walked into the study rubbing her hazy eyes. She was immediately hit by the smoke and coughed several times.

"Lao Zhou, why haven't you gone to bed yet? It's already past three o'clock."

Shen Manling said, fanning the air in front of her nose with her hand.

Zhou Cheng stared at the two huge monitors on the desk without saying anything. Various data symbols and patterns were densely displayed on the monitors. Shen Manling walked in and took a look but didn't see anything interesting. She just stared at the figure stuffed with cigarette butts. The ashtray looks like a stack of straw says:

"Why do you smoke so much? I know you are anxious, but if you stay up hard at night and work hard during the day, if your body collapses, no one will be able to take over your work, and you have to take care of this family. "

Zhou Cheng turned his head sharply and stared at his wife with bloodshot eyes. There was a complicated expression mixed with joy and fear in his eyes, and he said nothing for a while.

This startled Shen Manling. She stretched out her hand and caressed Zhou Cheng's shoulder. She bent down and looked at her husband's face, which was already very haggard from staying up late, and said anxiously:

"Lao Zhou, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me."

Zhou Cheng shook his head vigorously, regained his composure, and took a deep breath:

"Man Ling! Do you still remember when we came back in the evening, you asked me about the controllable nuclear fusion reactor?"

Shen Manling nodded with curiosity on her face:

"Well, remember, you said you were worried about this matter, but you can't turn it into practical applications yet. What's wrong?"

Zhou Cheng pointed to the computer display screen:

"I got an email when we got home and I opened it and this is what was in it."

Shen Manling squinted her eyes and looked at the pictures on the monitor, shaking her head slightly:

"I don't quite understand your professional stuff. This... this looks like a tokamak structure."

Zhou Cheng was a little surprised when he heard his wife's guess:

"You are right. This is a very detailed Tokamak fusion reactor plan. It uses deuterium and tritium as fuel. The design drawings and theoretical calculations are complete, and the materials used are all under our control."

Zhou Cheng said with joy and no trace of tiredness at all.

"It is specific enough to guide us in directly manufacturing such a reactor with a power of 35 million kilowatts! I have already calculated the large frame inside, and there are no problems, and the details can withstand scrutiny. No matter who sent it This email, this is incredible!”

Shen Manying looked puzzled at her husband, whose face was filled with joy like a child buying a new toy:

"Um...could it be Chaowen? Doesn't he often let you see incredible things? Is this even more incredible than Liu Chaowen's miracles?"

Zhou Cheng dragged the screen with the mouse and shook his head:

"This is different. Liu Chaowen's talent is mainly in cutting-edge theoretical physics, and this is more applied. It is not a field he is good at. And I called him, and he also said it was not him. That kid Chaowen, You know his character and he won't lie."

"Is it possible that other scientific research teams have made progress?" Shen Manling asked.

Zhou Cheng waved his hand:

"I called several professors who are studying nuclear fusion, but they don't know. I really can't think of anyone else who has the ability to design such a plan.

However, these are not that important. What is important is that this may be our life-saving straw. I must immediately verify the feasibility of this plan and then report to the Academy of Sciences."

Shen Manling also knew the importance of this matter. According to her understanding of her husband, it was impossible for him to go to bed after such a thing happened. So she went to the kitchen to make some midnight snacks for her husband, while Zhou Cheng continued to check the drawings. data on.

At dawn the next day, Zhou Cheng, Xia Jigang, and several leaders and experts from the Academy of Engineering had gathered in a conference room of the National Academy of Sciences. The huge projection screen displayed dense patterns and data. That was what he had done yesterday. That email I received.

Zhou Cheng spent a long time introducing the situation eloquently. Several top nuclear physics experts in the country were extremely shocked and also admired the content of the email.

Only Wen Zhuorui, the chief engineer of the "Fuyao System" of the Academy of Engineering, looked different from everyone else. He was less surprised than everyone else and more inexplicably flustered.

Xia Jigang has a lot more gray hair on his temples than a few months ago, but his tone of voice is still so calm and sophisticated:

"Professor Zhou, I probably understand what you mean. So what are your opinions on how to implement the construction."

Zhou Cheng habitually took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and just lit it and took a puff. Xia Jigang made a coughing sound. He pressed the intercom in front of him and said:

"Meeting room! Bring in some ashtrays and turn on the ventilation."

Then fan the air in front of your nose with your hands:

"Oh! It's okay, go on."

Zhou Cheng felt a little uncomfortable, took a long puff and put out the cigarette:

"In the past, we would definitely have required strict verification and then build a small experimental reactor first. After it was fully verified and mature, we would then build a practical reactor.

But every minute we are fighting for now is adding a weight to the balance of our victory. I think as long as it can pass the theoretical calculation, it can be directly used for the power supply of the 'Fuyao System'."

Xia Jigang nodded and said:

"Well, I also have this consideration. At this time, you technical experts must dare to innovate and express their opinions, and dare to take responsibility."

Several experts looked at each other, but Zhou Cheng didn't seem to care. He looked at the other experts and said:

"You all have the information. Let's take a look. How long will it take to complete the theoretical calculation of this plan?"

An expert looked through the thick information in his hand and said firmly:

"I took a quick look and found that the theoretical part of the information is very detailed, and the derivation process has been completely preserved. This greatly reduced our workload. We immediately organized the verification and derivation work, I believe it will take three days

Within a few days, we can draw completely independent conclusions."
