In Wasteland Survival I have a Dyson Sphere
Chapter 213 Tokamak Fusion Reactor
As all thermal power on the moon is eliminated, it is impossible for these dismantled thermal power plants to be abandoned like this.
It just so happens that these thermal power plants not only burn coal, but also burn hydrogen fuel rods, and generate a lot of electricity.
Therefore, these thermal power plants can also be used as supplementary electricity for other areas.
Two months later, the lunar base at this time expanded a lot.
At this time, inside a transparent dome building, a large laboratory is located here.
Here, it is a place specially used to develop magnetic confinement nuclear fusion.
The entire laboratory occupies 70% of the space in the dome. On the periphery of the laboratory, there is a circle of park to decorate with a little green.
Inside the laboratory is a large tokamak magnetic confinement fusion reactor.
This reactor was designed with future uses in mind.
The experimenters also did not consider what would happen if they failed.
Because among the remaining information, the information about the Tokamak magnetic confinement nuclear fusion reactor is already very complete, and what is missing is only some information about materials.
After all, the temperature inside the tokamak device reaches hundreds of millions of degrees, and ordinary materials simply cannot withstand such high heat.
Even if it is magnetic constraint control and does not require direct contact, the heat will be conducted and it is impossible to remove much heat.
Under such high heat, ordinary materials cannot withstand this heat and will cause direct damage to surrounding devices.
So even though the manufacturing method is known, the lack of materials still prevents the Tokamak magnetic confinement nuclear fusion reactor from operating successfully.
Although Lin Yu's interstellar-era materials have very good performance, they only last longer compared to temperatures of hundreds of millions.
It was not until the emergence of degenerate materials, combined with previous superconducting materials, that this technology could continue to be studied.
Otherwise, the entire project will come to a standstill and the issue of materials will be settled first.
After the successful research of new materials, the problem that followed was that the material properties were too good and the processing was too difficult.
Ordinary metal cutting can no longer damage it, and laser devices can only be used to cut and weld this material.
It is precisely because of the great difficulty that the construction of the first tokamak device was slow, and the overall construction has not been completed until today.
The remaining auxiliary equipment is much simpler to manufacture, so while waiting for the final auxiliary equipment to arrive and be installed, the first phase of the Lunar Energy Center was successfully completed and began to connect to the grid to generate electricity.
At this time, in the control room of the first fusion reactor, everyone was paying attention to the power generation situation.
Because during the construction process, with the first unit in front, Panwang optimized the structure of the three units, and the power generation capacity increased, directly reaching 70 million kilowatts of power generation.
Together, the three towers can generate 210 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per hour.
What is this concept? Lin Yu knew a set of data. Before the time travel, the Dragon Kingdom's combat readiness department only generated 1.9 billion electricity a day, which was only 79 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per hour.
These three units, plus the first unit, have a total power of 260 million kilowatt-hours. In other words, these four units cover an area of only 10 square kilometers, and their power generation is comparable to three combat readiness provinces.
At the same time, the Dyson shell that has been under construction now has a power generation capacity of 100 million megawatts, and its power is also very terrifying.
Before traveling through time, Lin Yu learned that Long Country's annual electricity consumption was 72 trillion kilowatt-hours.
After the Dyson shell is completed, it will produce 100 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per hour, which is 100 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity.
Twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year, that is 876 billion trillion, 876 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity, which is 120 times the annual electricity consumption of Long Country.
Although it is difficult to achieve this step, everything is developing step by step, and sooner or later, it will reach such a height.
At the same time, with sufficient energy supply, social development is also accelerating.
Although the population is now small and consumption is still a bit weak, development is relatively fast in other aspects.
At the same time, stimulated by population policies, the population has grown particularly rapidly in recent years.
In Yue Yue's office, King Pan was also reporting on these people's livelihood data.
"Sir, this year, our number of married families is 15 million, and the number of new births is 20 million. The total population has almost reached 300 million, and the population continues to grow at a rapid rate."
"Well, yes, if we keep up this momentum, our population will soon return to its original state. In just ten years, we can completely open up the sea of stars."
"Yes sir, and our current resources are enough to support a comfortable life for tens of billions of people. In the future, developing planets will definitely require a large number of manpower."
"Hahaha, you actually think it's better to have more people, which is beyond my expectation."
"Sir, I have to admit that human beings' own creativity cannot be replaced by our mechanical life.
Therefore, although a large amount of production is now automated, necessary personnel on duty are also indispensable.
Once an emergency occurs, in some cases, the human brain is much more flexible than the machine. "
After following Lin Yu for so long and experiencing so much, I have already seen the potential of human beings, so I said these words.
Returning to the previous magnetic confinement site, the magnetic confinement nuclear fusion reactor has completed the final parts installation.
"Check all parts and start the self-inspection process!"
"Yes, the self-test program has been started, and individual testing of each area has begun..."
As a mechanical sound came, the entire fusion reactor began to change continuously.
"Report, self-inspection completed, everything is running normally."
"Okay, let's start the first ignition experiment. Everyone, pay attention to protection!"
"Yes, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com to prepare for the first ignition experiment, 3, 2, 1, start the energy industry and start ignition."
"Buzz~"
A whole blue light lights up, and the plasma in the middle begins to react.
Over time, the light gets brighter and brighter, eventually stabilizing.
After running for more than one minute, after seeing that it is still in a stable operating state, directly turn off the energy output.
At this time, the reactor's energy input and output were not yet stable, so after losing energy supply, it gradually stopped operating.
"Okay, get ready to check the status of each component and confirm whether there are any damaged components!"
"yes!"
Following everyone's inspection, the inspection report came out directly one day later.
"Reporting to the chief engineer, it has been determined that all components are in good condition. The previous experiments were the same as the model, and there were no abnormalities."
"Very good, then let everyone prepare to start the next test!"
"yes!"
The scientific researchers who reported the report immediately left and began to gather personnel to conduct the ignition experiment again.
