This civilization is very strong, but the technology tree is a bit crooked

Chapter 120 Pay attention to laser inertial constraints, ignite deuterium-tritium fusion!

"a few kilograms"

Chen Yi thought for a while: "That's fine. This time, the deuterium-tritium reactor is mainly to test the magnetic confinement situation. A few kilograms are enough."

"Enough is enough."

Lao Zhang nodded, then seemed to think of something, and reminded: "Remember to read the documents I gave you recently."

"The laser weapon technology on the opposite side has made a breakthrough. Pay attention to their development of controllable nuclear fusion."

"Technological development is not a single item, but a series of links. A breakthrough in this link may lead to technological updates in other links."

"Laser. Controlled nuclear fusion?"

Chen Yi was taken aback, and asked, "Laser inertial restraint system?"

"Yes, laser inertial constraints."

"The laser on your side has made a breakthrough. After the Shenguang IV in Shanghai updated its equipment, it used a new laser for target shooting, and successfully achieved the fusion ignition of the deuterium-tritium target pellet."

"It's just that the manufacturing cost of the target pellet, the tritium's self-sustainability, and the neutron irradiation of the deuterium-tritium reaction are still difficult to solve."

"Now Shenguang IV is going to skip deuterium-tritium fusion, improve the laser absorption rate of the target capsule, increase the power of the laser, and try deuterium-helium fusion."

"Most of the helium-3 element you gave to the EAST nuclear fusion project team is transferred to Shenguang IV"

"If the deuterium-helium target pellet is successfully ignited, inertial confinement will be promising, and the success rate of practicality and commercialization will be infinitely improved."

Professor Zhang roughly talked about the recent development of inertial restraint, and then took the two middle-aged strong men out of the base.

Compared with the more media publicity, the most international cooperation, the magnetic confinement nuclear fusion device that is familiar to the public.

There is another way to realize controllable nuclear fusion at the theoretical level.

That is the laser inertial confinement fusion proposed by the scientist Basov of Big Brother in the last century and academician Wang Ganchang respectively.

That is, to imitate the ignition mode of the hydrogen boy.

The target pellet is irradiated with laser light, and the fuel in the pellet is compressed until it is compressed to a state of extremely high temperature and high pressure, and a fusion reaction occurs.

As we all know, the hydrogen boy is a conjoined twin.

It looks like a hydrogen boy, but it actually has a matching little boy.

The explosion process is to first ignite the fusion layer of hydrogen through the explosion of the matching little boy, so as to realize the explosion of the hydrogen boy.

The specific process does not rely on the hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius of high temperature generated by the explosion of the little boy.

Instead, with the help of the X-rays produced by the explosion of the little boy, the X-rays are used to irradiate and compress the hydrogen fuel vigorously and miraculously, and finally ignite the hydrogen boy and explode.

After all, X-rays are light, and light travels faster than all matter.

Only with the help of X-rays can Hydrogen Boy be ignited before being blown away by Little Boy.

As for the design and configuration, the irradiation and ignition of the hydrogen fuel can be completed within the nanosecond time of the little boy's explosion.

This is the world's top secret, only five administrators master it.

It is said that the first configuration is the first to come up on the opposite side.

After that, Big Brother obtained some information through Yanzi and rolled it out.

Daiying mastered it with the help of the opposite side through the incense in his blood.

Then, with the hard work of academicians and a group of outsiders who have been incognito for a long time in China, another configuration was produced with a hand-cranked computer.

When Faxilan saw it, he had it all, but my family didn't have it, so he was very anxious.

When you are in a hurry, you are prone to chaos. As a result, during a visit, you accidentally threw a complete set of nuclear reactor materials in the country. In the end, only a few different pieces of paper were found, and they were also retrieved after a few years of practice.

Of course, the above are all rumors.

The first top-secret information, the foundation of the five administrators, it is impossible for the outside world to know the specific details.

But this configuration is very top-secret and difficult to do, but it is a fact that it is one-on-one.

Because the third brother has been masturbating the little boy for decades, and he is about to get angry, and he doesn't see half of his hair.

The inertial confinement of the laser, the compression of the laser, and even the compression of the X-rays produced by the laser, are almost the same as the hydrogen boy’s ignition configuration.

In such a special situation, the project leading to inertial fusion did not carry out international cooperation, but was independently researched by each country.

In terms of attention and popularity, laser inertial confinement fusion may not be as good as the tokamak device and stellarator device of the magnetic confinement route.

But as a project that can not only study controllable nuclear fusion, but also explore the deep fusion mechanism, improve the power of hydrogen boy and the miniaturization of hydrogen boy.

The research of various countries in this area is only much more than the investment of magnetic confinement devices.

"Laser inertial restraint, this thing, has been leading the way over the years."

"The domestic Shenguang IV has completed fusion ignition, and the other side must have completed it."

"It is estimated that the cost of the target pellet, the problem of deuterium-tritium fusion, cannot be commercialized"

Chen Yi recalled some of the internal information he had seen before, and he understood that technology is a whole, and it means that it affects the whole body.

"never mind."

"Professional matters such as comprehensive strategy should be considered by professional people."

"I'm still picking up my own deuterium-tritium pile, lighting a fire, and actually verifying the improvement plan of magnetic confinement."

"No matter how awesome the opponent is, this can't be compared to hanging."

Chen Yi thought for a while, and simply ignored it.

When the soldiers come, they will block the water and the earth will cover them. If the enemy wants to advance, he will not be able to stop it.

In the past production area, a batch of prepared and produced superconducting wires was taken out, as well as other basic accessories, improved microwave generators, etc.

According to the plan calculated by myself, the automatic equipment is used to weave the coil and the tokamak device is turned on.

Because of the previous research on ion thrusters and polar magnetic variable specific impulse plasma engines, I read a lot of technical information and basic principles related to magnetic fields.

After studying and mastering the literature and materials provided by the EAST nuclear fusion project team.

Regarding the magnetic field design and control of magnetic confinement, Chen Yi now ranks second in the world, and absolutely no one dares to be the first.

the next day.

A sealed tank containing 5 kilograms of tritium was delivered.

At the same time, Chen Yi might be too lazy to go to the beach to filter the heavy water and then electrolyze the deuterium.

except tritium.

The package also included 200 kilograms of deuterium.

The third day after receiving deuterium-tritium elements.

According to the plan that Chen Yi had in mind long ago, a complete set of automated industrial equipment in the production area will work at full power.

One is 5 meters in diameter, 8 meters high and weighs 108 tons.

A few circles smaller than the EAST nuclear fusion device, but actually more powerful tokamak device, stands in an empty laboratory in the corner of the base.

[Item: Superconducting Magnetic Confinement - Tokamak Device]

[Attributes: Energy x174, Magnetic Confinement x167, Power x172, Control x146.7, Efficiency x126.4, Strength x27.2, Beauty x14.7]

[The detection device has reached the limit beyond the conventional field, and the consciousness wave consumption of subsequent adjustments has increased by a thousand times. 】

[Note: This is a magnetic confinement device that touches the quantum realm, with powerful power and a strong magnetic field, it can hold plasma at hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius in a cage.

Perhaps, you can put some fusion elements into it when it is fully activated, and witness the deep mysteries of the stars.

But pay attention, different fusion elements have different products, use it, please pay attention to safety. 】

"The initial attribute is beyond the conventional field, and the consumption of adjusting the consciousness wave has increased by a thousand times."

"Also, different fusion elements and different products in the remarks evaluation, pay attention to safety tips"

Chen Yi looked at this fat metal magnetic confinement device, looked at the deuterium-tritium element tank that had been connected to the device, and probably understood the meaning of paying attention to safety in the remarks.

Neutron irradiation for deuterium-tritium fusion.

Deuterium-tritium fusion, the reaction generates a helium 4 ion + a high-energy neutron, and an energy of 17.6MeV.

Neutrons have no charge.

Magnetic fields cannot confine it.

The high-energy neutrons produced by this reaction will be like super cannonballs, blasting out from the device in all directions, destroying wherever they go.

Neither the DNA of life nor the atomic nuclei of material elements can escape its destruction.

Destroy everything, and it's still destroying at the level of the atomic nucleus.

This is the most difficult neutron irradiation for deuterium-tritium fusion.

Any kind of material is foam in the face of such neutron irradiation and neutron bombardment from the nuclear level.

It will be denatured, brittle, and crumbled after a short period of time.

Fragments after the collapse.

Because the nucleus is stuffed with extra neutrons, it is equivalent to the DNA being modified.

The elements of the material also undergo transmutation, becoming other elements.

Most of these transmuted elements are still radioactive elements.

However, such high-energy neutrons cannot be completely isolated and prohibited.

Because this is the key to solving tritium's self-sustainability.

Tritium has a half-life of 12 years.

An element that hardly exists in nature.

It can only be produced through reactors, and the current international market price is 30,000 knives per gram.

In the past, when breeder reactor technology was not good enough, 1 gram cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

such a precious element.

If it depends entirely on external supplements to fuel the fusion pile.

That is the value of producing 10 kilowatt-hours of electricity and consuming 100 million kilowatt-hours of electricity, which even large camels and dogs can't afford.

The real way is to add a lithium-6 breeding layer to the deuterium-tritium fusion reactor.

The high-energy neutrons generated by the deuterium-tritium reaction bombard lithium 6, and the reaction produces a helium 4 ion and tritium.

Then the generated tritium is recovered and re-injected into the reactor to realize the self-sustainability of tritium.

"My purpose this time is mainly to obtain the change data of the confinement magnetic field during actual fusion, and provide a basis for further optimization and improvement of the magnetic confinement magnetic field structure."

"It's not really engaged in deuterium-tritium fusion."

"Therefore, there is no need to consider the neutron irradiation and tritium's self-sustainability."

"The half-life of free neutrons is 15 minutes, so after the test is started, wait for a day."

"After all the natural decay of neutrons is exhausted, pay attention again, the radioactive elements produced by the bombardment and transmutation of high-energy neutrons can guarantee absolute safety."

Chen Yi thought about it and came up with a safe experiment plan.

He even tried to think for a while.

How to solve the problem of neutron irradiation and tritium self-sustaining.

It was found that it could not be solved at all.

It is also necessary to isolate the radiation of neutrons.

It is also necessary to release neutrons to solve tritium self-sustainment.

These are two completely contradictory issues.

Deuterium-tritium fusion should be put into the garbage dump, the world belongs to deuterium-helium fusion.

Determine the test plan.

Chen Yi quit the lab.

I came to a room not far away that was poured with high-grade cement, with steel plates and carbon fiber layers sandwiched inside, which can withstand the impact of tens of thousands of tons of equivalent.

"Unfortunately, there are still too few waves of consciousness."

"It takes four to five days to build a fusion reactor, otherwise the adjustment of the system will be faster."

It is doped with beryllium.

Thick glass that reflects neutrons.

Chen Yi looked at the tokamak fusion reactor, took out the remote control, and pressed the start button.

The consumption is doubled by a thousand times, and one attribute point is adjusted to 200,000.

The 200 million consciousness waves obtained from the live broadcast of landing on the moon, minus the rations given to Xuannv, are not enough to fully adjust this magnetic restraint device.

In addition, after the adjustment, it will take four to five days to re-manufacture a device.

In this situation, in terms of efficiency and cost-effectiveness, it is far inferior to Chen Yi's own data collection and research upgrades.

With the accumulation of technology and knowledge mastered by Chen Yi.

The current system adjustment is more about the application of new technologies and the breakthrough of new technological barriers.

It is more cost-effective to roll out the equipment that can be rolled out by yourself without using the system.

Buzz buzz!

The subtle sound of vacuuming is transmitted through the microphone in the laboratory.

After the vacuum extraction is completed, the magnetic field is activated, deuterium and tritium elements are injected, and the microwave generator increases the temperature of the elements.

A faint ray of plasma light began to emerge inside the fusion reactor.

This ray of light, like water and silk, is constantly revolving around the donut-like confining magnetic field.

The monitoring screen next to Chen Yi began to refresh a large number of magnetic field data of magnetic confinement.

The plasma temperature in the upper right corner, as well as the energy consumed for starting up, are also constantly increasing.

1000000.

5000000.

Ten million.

30 million.

70 million.

100000000.

Less than two hours.

The deuterium-tritium plasma inside the fusion reactor has soared to 100 million degrees Celsius.

The energy monitor has begun to detect subtle energy production.

Obviously, under this temperature, a very small number of deuterium-tritium elements are already undergoing fusion.

Chen Yi looked at the energy consumed by the fusion reactor from the start up to this point, and then looked at the energy produced by the detected fusion.

Well, 768.7 million to 1.

Very powerful data.

"Xuannv, raise the temperature to 124 million." Chen Yi calmly gave the order.

hum!

The sound of electricity suddenly soared.

The deuterium-tritium plasma inside the donut suddenly turned into a fluid shape.

Energy monitors detect the amount of energy produced, which also soars by three orders of magnitude.

"Increase the power of the coil, increase the strength of the magnetic field, shrink the volume of the magnetic confinement, and activate the high confinement mode!"

Following Chen Yi's instructions, the volume of the magnetic confinement that was running smoothly began to shrink slowly.

When shrinking to a certain range.

Sudden.

With a bang.

The light that shines brightly like the sun blooms in the constraint field.

Monitored fusion energy data, boosted in rapid surge.

The temperature of the plasma in the magnetic confinement field also soared to 230 million degrees Celsius.

The full-scale nuclear fusion of deuterium-tritium elements was ignited.

The high-temperature expanding plasma begins to impact and squeeze the confinement magnetic field, and slowly pushes back the confinement range of the magnetic field
