From a university student to a chief academician

After Ye Fei's technology research was completed, they immediately connected with the rest of the technology of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

Ye Fei and the others studied the most difficult technology, while the rest studied less difficult technologies.

In addition, Ye Fei and the others stopped their research for more than three months because of the explosion.

Therefore, Ye Fei's research is the last to be completed.

The entrance of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute!

Ye Fei led a group of people standing at the gate of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

Ye Fei stood at the head of the crowd, and a middle-aged man standing beside Ye Fei asked, "Dean, who will come today? Besides Deputy Director Qi, who else?"

All the technologies of controllable nuclear fusion have been successfully researched, and the higher-ups must send someone down to check.

Ye Fei and the others were standing at the gate of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute, waiting for the people above.

Ye Fei shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know very well, the higher-ups didn't tell me who it is."

A smile appeared on the corner of Ye Fei's mouth, and said: "All the technologies of controllable nuclear fusion have been successfully researched, no matter who comes from above, they will not embarrass us."

The rest of the people nodded slightly.

That's right, they have already researched all the technologies, so the higher-ups shouldn't bother them.

Besides, it was Ye Fei who led them to do research, and the trouble they caused was Ye Fei's trouble.

Who would dare to trouble Ye Fei in Xia Kingdom's scientific community?

Ye Fei raised his wrist to look at the time, and said, "It's almost time, it should be here."

As soon as the words fell, they heard a faint beeping sound, which was the sound of the aircraft propeller rotating.

Ye Fei and the others looked up to the sky.

I saw three helicopters flying from a distance, and then landed not far from them, rolling up the yellow sand on the ground.

Then, a group of people got off the helicopter, the leader was Geng Ye, director of the Science and Technology Department.

Behind Geng Ye, there are Qi Yong, the deputy director in charge of controllable nuclear fusion, Xu Mingshan, the director of the Institute of Atomic Energy Sciences, and Gao, the director of the Plasma Institute of Xiaguo Academy of Sciences in Heshi City.

There are also many directors of research institutes that study controlled nuclear fusion.

As soon as Geng Ye got off the plane, he waved to Ye Fei and smiled, "Academician Ye!"

Ye Fei waved his hand, and then led others to meet him.

After Ye Fei and the others approached Geng Ren and the others, they shook hands and greeted each other.

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Geng Si, I didn't expect you to come here in person, welcome!"

Geng Ye laughed loudly and said, "You have researched the controllable nuclear fusion, I have to come, the controllable nuclear fusion is the most important technology for the future development of our country."

Ye Fei stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please, and said, "Geng Si, please!"

Geng Ye nodded slightly, and then a group of people walked towards the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

After entering the Controllable Nuclear Fusion Research Institute, Ye Fei also knew that what Geng Ye and the others wanted to do most was to see the controllable nuclear fusion technology they had developed.

Therefore, Ye Fei immediately took them to check the controllable nuclear fusion technology.

In the master control room!

This is the place to control Controlled Fusion and view all the data about Controlled Fusion.

The main control room covers an area of ​​more than 200 square meters. Many computers are placed in an orderly manner, and a large display screen hangs on the entire wall.

When Ye Fei entered, many researchers were sitting in front of the computer and working.

When they saw Ye Fei coming in, they all stood up and said hello to Ye Fei.

Ye Fei pressed his hands and signaled them to sit down and continue working.

Ye Fei and others stood in front of the super-large display screen, and Ye Fei called up the information on controllable nuclear fusion.

Ye Fei said: "Everyone, please look, this is the researched controllable nuclear fusion."

"Now it's just that all the technology research has been completed, and there is still a lack of assembly and testing. After the assembly is completed, it will be tested for half a year, which means that the research on controllable nuclear fusion has been successful."

"What I'm showing you now is the controllable nuclear fusion that we have simulated and assembled."

Everyone nodded slightly and looked at the big screen.

Controlled nuclear fusion is like an eight-story building.

The controllable nuclear fusion is circular and divided into eight layers. There is a thick iron pillar in the middle of each layer. The iron pillar and the outer iron film are hollow, like a circular walkway.

Ye Feidao: "The controllable nuclear fusion is circular. There are eight layers in total, and each layer is three meters high. The eighth layer is 24 meters, and the diameter is ten meters."

"The area of ​​each layer is the same, the diameter of the middle cylinder is three meters, the distance between the cylinder and the outer layer is three meters, and the thickness of the outer layer is one meter."

"When the controllable nuclear fusion is running, the seawater enters the cylinder in the middle of each layer from the first layer inlet at the bottom, and then converts the seawater into deuterium and tritium from the second layer to the fourth layer."

"Then from the fifth layer to the seventh layer, the deuterium and tritium are converted into energy, and then the energy enters the eighth layer, which can store and release energy."

Deuterium and tritium are the most abundant in seawater, almost continuously.

Because of this, controlled nuclear fusion is the cleanest, safest and most reliable energy source.

In addition, Xiaguo has a very long coastline. For Xiaguo, having controllable nuclear fusion is equivalent to having unlimited energy.

After listening to Ye Fei's words, everyone nodded slightly.

Ye Fei said: "Next, I will explain the technology of each layer to you, the first layer..."

Ye Fei spent most of the day briefly explaining the techniques of each layer to them.

It wasn't until after six o'clock in the evening that Ye Fei finished his explanation.

Ye Fei raised his wrist to look at the time, and said, "Everyone, let's go eat!"

Ye Fei joked: "I'm in the Northwest, but there's nothing delicious, they're all very ordinary meals."

Geng Ye smiled and said: "Academician Ye, with the controllable nuclear fusion you have developed, even if you give us dirt, we will all eat it happily."

The rest of the people all laughed.

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Everyone, please!"

After finishing speaking, everyone went outside to eat in the cafeteria.

Indeed, the meals Ye Fei prepared for them were very ordinary. The researchers at the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute ate whatever they ate.

The food at the Institute of Nuclear Fusion is quite good, including vegetables, meat, fruit and soup.

Geng Ye sat across from Ye Fei with a dinner plate, and asked, "Academician Ye, when will the controllable fusion technology be assembled after successful research?"

Ye Fei tilted his head and thought for a while before saying, "One year later!"

Geng Ye frowned slightly and asked, "Does it take so long?"

What Geng Ye thought was that if it was assembled in the near future, he could stay and watch.

But it was assembled a year later, and he still had work to do in the technology department, so he couldn't wait to stay here for a year.

Ye Feidao: "Assembly requires some machines to assemble. There are no such machines here, and they need to be transported from outside."

"In addition, many parts of controlled nuclear fusion need to be manufactured by the whole country. There are many parts that we cannot manufacture and need to be manufactured by foreign companies."

"That's why it took so long."

Geng Ye nodded slightly and asked, "How long will it take to assemble?"

"Three months!"

"So long?" Geng Ye said in astonishment.

At the modern industrial level, it takes three months to assemble a controllable nuclear fusion, which is indeed a long time.

Even if it is a quantum computer, a quantum computer only takes a month to manufacture.

Ye Fei smiled helplessly: "Geng Si, there are a lot of parts in the controllable nuclear fusion, some parts are very large, and some parts are only the size of a hair."

"Moreover, some parts need to be assembled manually, and the machine cannot be assembled at all.

"So, the assembly speed is very slow."

Geng Ye nodded slightly, and said helplessly, "Okay!"

Geng Ye asked, "Are you still staying here?"

"Yes!" Ye Fei said, "I've been staying here until the controllable fusion test is over."

Geng Ye and others stayed at the Institute of Nuclear Fusion for another three days.

After that, except for Qi Yong, everyone left.

Qi Yong will stay here until the controlled nuclear fusion test is successful.

A year later, all parts of the controlled nuclear fusion were successfully manufactured and shipped to the Institute of Nuclear Fusion.

There are also machines for assembling controllable nuclear fusion, which are also shipped to the Institute of Nuclear Fusion.

In the factory!
Ye Fei and Qi Yong stood together, looking at the machines and parts that had been arranged in the workshop.

A middle-aged man came over and said, "Dean, get ready."

"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded slightly, then looked at Qi Yong.

Qi Yong smiled and said: "Academician Ye, you are the boss here, you can do whatever you want, I just watch from the side."

Ye Fei nodded, then looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Let's start assembling!"

"it is good!"

The middle-aged man left after speaking.

After a while, the machine started up and began to assemble the controlled nuclear fusion.

Ye Fei looked at the machine that was assembling the controllable nuclear fusion, and thought: "The controllable nuclear fusion technology is very difficult, and the assembly is also difficult. Even if there is a machine, it will take three months."

"Based on all the technologies developed so far, there shouldn't be any more complicated machines on earth than controllable nuclear fusion!"

"Fortunately, I had the foresight to simplify the assembly of controllable nuclear fusion. Otherwise, let alone three months, it would be difficult to assemble even half a year."

At that time, Ye Fei thought that assembling controllable nuclear fusion would be very complicated.

Therefore, he developed a set of parts assembly simplification method.

Of course, the assembly of parts is simplified, and performance has not been affected in any way.

Ye Fei looked at it for a while, then called the middle-aged man over, and said, "You guys watch here, I'm leaving first, let me know if you have any questions."

It takes three months to assemble the parts, and it is impossible for Ye Fei to keep an eye on it all the time.

"Okay, Dean!" The middle-aged man said.

Ye Fei walked to Qi Yong's side and said, "Director Qi, are you here to watch, or leave?"

Qi Yong asked: "What? Are you leaving?"

"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded slightly: "It takes three months to assemble, and I can't stay here all the time!"

"Okay!" Qi Yong said: "Then you go, I'll watch here."

Controllable nuclear fusion is very important, Qi Yong wants to watch it all the time.

Therefore, it is impossible for him to leave.

Ye Fei said: "Okay, if there is something to notify me, I will be in my office."

"Okay!" Qi Yong said.

Ye Fei immediately left the factory and returned to the office.

Three months later, there was an open space in the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

Here stands a 21-meter-high circular machine with a silver appearance. It looks like super-large candied haws butted together. It is controllable nuclear fusion.

Ye Fei looked at the controllable nuclear fusion in front of him, and thought: "The assembled controllable nuclear fusion is exactly the same as the one we simulated, without any deviation."

"21 meters high and ten meters in diameter!"

"According to our research guess, this controllable nuclear fusion can generate 3.6x10^17 joules of energy in one hour, which is 1000 billion watts of energy, [-] million kWh of electricity."

"A year is 760 billion kilowatt-hours."

"Xiaguo needs [-] trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity a year."

"As long as there are eleven controllable nuclear fusions, the electricity demand of the people of the whole country can be met."

"However, the cost of this is very high."

Ye Fei and the others spent more than 300 billion US dollars to create a controllable nuclear fusion.

This is also because the controllable nuclear fusion was developed by Ye Fei and the others, so the manufacturing cost only needs the cost price.

"Eleven will cost more than 500 billion US dollars!" Ye Fei clenched his fists and said excitedly, "But it's worth it."

"Spent more than 500 billion U.S. dollars to create eleven controllable nuclear fusions, which can meet the electricity demand of the whole country."

"Moreover, the energy released by controlled nuclear fusion is purely natural and pollution-free."

"If it is a nuclear power plant, if it costs 5000 billion US dollars to build a nuclear power plant, the electricity produced in a year will not be able to meet the needs of the people of the whole country."

"Also, nuclear power plants are polluting and expensive to produce electricity."

"And controlled nuclear fusion produces electricity, because the material is extracted from seawater."

"So, the cost is very low."

"Of course, whether it is a nuclear power plant or a controllable nuclear fusion, a lot of money is needed for post-maintenance."

"But in general, controlled fusion is much cheaper to operate than a nuclear power plant."

"After the controllable nuclear fusion operation, Xiaguo's electricity will be very cheap."

"Currently, the price of electricity per kilowatt-hour is 0.52 to 0.57 yuan. After the use of controllable nuclear fusion, the electricity price may be as cheap as [-] cents per kilowatt-hour."

"The more controlled fusion you build, the cheaper the electricity!"

"If more controllable nuclear fusion is produced, electricity can also be sold to foreign countries, which can earn a lot of income."

Qi Yong came over and said expectantly: "Academician Ye, you can start the test now!"

As long as the test is successful, it means that the research and development of controllable nuclear fusion is successful.

Qi Yong had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

Ye Fei nodded slightly and said, "It's time to start."

Ye Fei summoned a middle-aged man and said, "Are you ready?"

"Dean!" The middle-aged man said: "Ready."

Ye Fei said: "Then start the test!"

"Yes, Dean!"

The middle-aged man left after finishing speaking, and began to let people start the test.

Soon, controlled nuclear fusion will start.

Although this is in the northwest, it is close to Lake Hala, which is the largest saltwater lake in the Xia Kingdom, and it is rich in deuterium and tritium.

Therefore, deuterium and tritium can also be extracted with the lake water in Lake Hara.

The Institute of Nuclear Fusion is on the edge of Lake Hara, only more than 1000 meters away from Lake Hara.

Through underground pipelines, the lake water of Hara Lake is transported into controllable nuclear fusion.

Ye Fei looked at Qi Yong and said, "Director Qi, let's go there!"

"Okay!" Qi Yong nodded.

Immediately, the two walked to the monitoring room.

All data of controllable nuclear fusion can be monitored in the monitoring room.

After the two entered the monitoring room, there were many people working inside.

Ye Fei looked at the large screen hanging on the wall, which displayed all the data of controllable nuclear fusion in real time.

Ye Feixin said: "The lake water has entered the controllable nuclear fusion, it depends on whether it can be converted into deuterium and tritium."

Ye Fei's heart also began to tense up.

All previous experiments were based on theoretical research.

The test is to verify whether the results of their experiments are successful.

After a while, Ye Fei couldn't help clapping his hands, and said excitedly: "Okay, deuterium and tritium have been converted successfully!"

Qi Yong on the side was taken aback by Ye Fei's slap, but after hearing Ye Fei's words, he said excitedly, "Did the first step succeed?"

"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded slightly: "The first step has been successful, after that, as long as the deuterium and tritium are converted into energy, the controllable nuclear fusion will be basically successful."

"I am very sure about the storage of energy, and there will be basically no problems."

Energy storage technology is not a difficult technology, and it has been researched by some countries a long time ago.

Later, Ye Fei also developed this technology.

Ye Fei didn't make much changes to the technology, and used the conventional energy storage technology for controllable nuclear fusion.

Next, Ye Fei and the others continued to watch the big screen.

Ye Fei watched the deuterium and tritium enter the fifth layer of controlled nuclear fusion, and his heart beat accordingly.

There are eight layers of controllable nuclear fusion. The first layer is the entry of lake water, the second to fourth layers are the extraction of deuterium and tritium from the lake water, and the fifth to seventh layers are the conversion of deuterium and tritium into energy.

The fifth to seventh floors are also the core technology in controllable nuclear fusion.

If there is no problem in the fifth to seventh layers, the deuterium and tritium can be successfully converted into energy.

Then, controllable nuclear fusion represents the success of research and development.

Of course, the premise is that there are no problems in the next six months of testing.

Ye Fei stared at the big screen tightly with both eyes, and found it difficult to breathe.

Ye Fei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the deuterium and tritium were successfully transformed into energy.

Then, a smile appeared on Ye Fei's face: "Successful."

Qi Yong at the side was taken aback, looked at Ye Fei and asked, "Successful?"

Ye Fei nodded slightly and said, "Well, it worked."

Ye Fei turned around and looked at the rest of the people in the monitoring room with a smile, "Controllable nuclear fusion successfully converted energy for the first time."

"Papa..." Soon, thunderous applause resounded in the monitoring room.

After the applause stopped, Ye Fei said with a smile: "As long as there are no problems in the next six months of testing, the development of controllable nuclear fusion will be considered successful."

"Dean, there will definitely be no problem." Someone laughed.

"Yes, Dean, there will definitely be no problem."

"..."

Everyone chattered.

They said this, one is to wish that there will be no accidents in the half-year test, and the other is to cheer themselves up, implying to themselves that the test will pass smoothly.

Qi Yong said: "Academician Ye, I will report this news to the higher-ups immediately."

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Go ahead, and make Geng Si happy."

Qi Yong nodded and left the monitoring room.

After leaving the monitoring room, he immediately called Geng Ye to report the news to him.

Geng Ye smiled and said: "Very well, Qi Si, you are now staying at the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute, waiting until the end of the test, and report to me if you have any situation."

"Okay, Genji!"

After half a year, the test passed successfully!

The successful development of controllable nuclear fusion! (end of this chapter)
