Chapter 480 [Room Temperature Superconductivity]

After Fang Hong instructed the company to fine-tune its strategy in the global commodity trading market, it turned to deploy cutting-edge technology. He looked at Tian Jiayi and said: "The company will increase investment in the research and development of room temperature superconducting materials in the application of new materials. Establish a national-level superconducting materials research institute in Xincheng, and recruit the top scholars in this field."

Hearing this, Tian Jiayi asked, "How much is the expected investment?"

The beautiful assistant doesn't ask him why now, because he can always make the right decisions. Taking a step back, his terrifying ability to make money, some money makes him a "prodigal", anyway, he makes money at a much faster rate. Because of his "prodigal" speed.

Fang Hong thought for a while and said: "Let's start with a budget of 3 billion yuan first, and then continue to increase investment later. Room temperature superconductivity is nothing new. It has been researched in the last century, but we need to continue to increase investment. .”

Speaking of this, Fang Hong looked at the beautiful assistant and smiled: "The RDA company in the "Avatar" movie, why do you think they have to go to war with the Na'vi people? Isn't it just for the room temperature superconducting ore on the planet Pandora?" Go. In short, if a new material such as room temperature superconductivity can be developed, the fourth industrial revolution of mankind will inevitably come, which can change almost all the existing industry patterns of mankind.”

Superconducting materials, simply put, are super conductive and have zero resistance.

For superconducting materials, the current itself is the movement process of electrons, and the electrons hit atoms during the movement, so the material will heat up, and part of the energy of the electrical energy will be converted into heat.

The superconducting state makes the material zero resistance, which means that electrons on the microscopic scale are completely unimpeded when they move.

When there is no resistance, the material does not heat up, and the material does not heat up, and of course there is no loss of energy.

If superconducting materials can achieve room temperature superconductivity, the new energy industry will first usher in an unprecedented development. New energy is electricity, but it has not been popularized for a long time. It cannot be fully popularized either.

It is because the equipment that uses electricity cannot be transmitted over long distances because of electricity, and the loss is too large. The longer the transmission distance, the more energy will be lost in the middle.

Therefore, power plants are generally built nearby. Don’t look at the wind power and photovoltaics in the northwest, but for the large power consumers in the eastern coastal cities, the distance is too far to use, so they can only use nearby thermal power.

Therefore, compared with oil and natural gas, electricity is not enough to worry about in the final analysis.

And room temperature superconductivity means that the material basically achieves zero resistance in a greenhouse.

Current superconducting materials need to be cooled down to minus one or two hundred degrees Celsius to achieve superconductivity under normal atmospheric pressure. It is obviously not possible to popularize large-scale applications.

But if there is a room temperature superconducting material, there will be no energy loss when using this material for power transmission. The photovoltaic power generated in the Sahara Desert in Africa can be transmitted to new cities, and the global power grid can be easily connected.

Even if controllable nuclear fusion is not done, the superconducting energy storage of generators made of superconducting materials will also greatly improve the efficiency of power systems.

Room-temperature superconducting materials can also be used in some existing electronic devices, such as mobile phones, computers, automobiles and other devices known to humans that can use electricity. The power will be ridiculously large, and the energy consumption will be surprisingly small. Without resistors, there is no heat dissipation requirement, and the mobile phone will not be hot. No need for heat dissipation means that not much energy is wasted.

In this way, all electrical equipment not only does not require a large battery, but can also achieve ultra-long battery life and ultra-high power output.

If the battery of the same size in a smartphone can last for 20 hours now, if it is replaced with a room temperature superconducting material, saving the heat loss may double the battery life.

And whether it is electronic equipment, future cars or even houses, it is not uncommon to float in the sky. The mountains suspended in the air in the "Avatar" movie are the best presentation.

The phenomenon of superconductivity can not only realize suspension, but also suspension. As long as there is no problem with the superconducting material itself, if you want to go to the sky, you can go to the sky.

The traffic pressure of the super metropolis will disappear in an instant, because the birth of room temperature superconducting materials can make the city's traffic network change from a flat surface to a three-dimensional traffic network.

Just like the future cities in sci-fi movies are reflected in reality, vehicles travel through different city heights, and then such sci-fi images will become a reality.

If the vehicles that were originally concentrated on one plane, that is, the ground, are scattered at different heights, even a metropolis with a population of more than 100 million will never experience traffic jams.

For example, if the traffic pressure on the ground is unbearable, then build a traffic network at a height of 50 meters above sea level, if it is not enough, then plan a plane traffic network at a height of 100 meters, and so on.

Undoubtedly, the new energy vehicle industry will also usher in earth-shaking changes due to room temperature superconductivity, and fuel vehicles will completely withdraw from the stage of history.

With room-temperature superconducting materials, electromagnetic weapon systems in the military are promising. Electromagnetic rifles and electromagnetic guns can be installed on shipboard electromagnetic guns, vehicle-mounted electromagnetic guns, and even fighter planes. The superconducting energy storage revolution brought by room temperature superconducting materials , so that the utilization rate of energy has been unprecedentedly improved.

With room temperature superconducting materials, the research of controllable fusion is expected to achieve a big leap forward, and the realization of controllable fusion will make it easier for human beings to go out of the earth and into deep space, whether it is building a larger space station or on the moon or even The establishment of a permanent human base on Mars is no longer out of reach.

It can be seen that once the new material of room temperature superconductivity is realized, it will inevitably make the whole mankind fast forward to the fourth industrial revolution. The representative technologies of the fourth industrial revolution are still to come.

For room-temperature superconducting materials, the scope of application is too wide. Fang Hong is also determined to smash this new material. Under normal circumstances, it may not be possible to develop it in the next ten or twenty years.

but……

If it is open, the situation may be quite different.

Fang Hong thought about accumulating a wave of achievement points, and then selected a top scholar in this field, and then used the item card to maximize the research and development capabilities of this scholar, and the probability of producing room temperature superconducting materials would definitely increase significantly.

The prospect of this new material is worth the cost.

However, it is precisely because this new material has such a great impact on all mankind that even if it is produced in a short period of time, it cannot be easily disclosed, because the impact on all walks of life is too great, and it will trigger a major reshuffle in countless industries, and This influence is global.

There is no doubt that Europe and the United States will inevitably launch a comprehensive and crazy suppression, so the timing of the launch and popularization is also critical.

But of course, the sooner it can be developed, the better. The initiative is in your own hands. As long as it is developed, it can be applied in the military field first. The electromagnetic weapon system is the best carrier.
