Galaxy Technology Empire

Zhang Huaide looked at the unloaded containers and felt relieved.

Suddenly, an electric off-road vehicle drove over from Fangge Road, which is a road used to connect various sand control grids.

The off-road vehicle parked slowly not far from Zhang Huaide, and then a bronze man wearing a plaid shirt stepped out.

The man walked directly towards Zhang Huaide.

"Is this Dr. Zhang Huaide? My name is Fang Ping."

"It turns out to be the Fang branch, and I am Zhang Huaide." Zhang Huaide said as he stretched out his hand.

After the two shook hands, Fang Ping continued: "Dr. Zhang, when will the construction of the nuclear fusion power station be completed at the earliest?"

"Very fast. If the scheduled time for subsequent equipment installation arrives, we can complete the construction within 10 days." Zhang Huaide pointed at the container and replied.

"So fast?" Although Fang Ping didn't know much about the nuclear power industry, building a nuclear fusion power station in 10 days was extremely fast.

"We have adopted new technologies, and all components have been prefabricated. All it takes is installation and debugging. Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission power generation are different, and the possibility of nuclear leakage is almost zero." Zhang Huaide explained.

"Then I'll wait and see! Dr. Zhang's dinner is ready. Let's eat first." After speaking, Fang Ping made an invitation gesture.

"Western food or Chinese food?" Zhang Huaide didn't hesitate and got in the car directly.

Fang Ping started the off-road vehicle and replied with a smile: "Combination of Chinese and Western things."

The SUV headed toward the southern metropolitan area.

Zhang Huaide looked at the Nandu District in the distance. In the afterglow of the setting sun, it looked very strange.

A city in the desert, Nandu is already quite large at this time. Thanks to the large-scale construction of quick-service buildings, Nandu currently has three 100-meter streets and 34 buildings.

Locals and immigrants are walking in the streets, but there are obviously more immigrants with yellow skin.

Zhang Huaide even saw a vegetable market sign written in Chinese and English.

After a while, Fang Ping's off-road vehicle arrived at the cafeteria. This is the comprehensive cafeteria of the Galaxy Consortium. It not only serves local employees, but also allows people from outside to come in and eat.

Zhang Huaide saw a very interesting scene. Many local people brought their families to the canteen to eat.

Fang Ping turned around and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Those locals seem to like the food in the canteen?" Zhang Huaide glanced at the locals queuing up.

"This is very normal. Chinese food is very popular. Only big cities in Tu'ao have Chinese restaurants, and they are expensive. Our canteens are priced at ordinary prices. It is normal for them to come to eat." Fang Ping replied with a smile.

Suddenly two young people on the side greeted Zhang Huaide and said, "Mr. Zhang, are you eating here too?"

Zhang Huaide turned around and said, "It turns out to be Captain Li. Don't you have any flights?"

"No, I won't return to Darwin until tomorrow." Li Chengye was wearing casual clothes.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang! I'm Tom." The other young man is Tom.

"Hello! Mr. Tom!" Zhang Huaide smiled and replied.

The reason why Li Chengye and Zhang Huaide are called Mr. Zhang is because he has been appointed as the vice president of Jinwu Group and concurrently serves as the chief technology executive.

Soon Fang Ping ordered the food: "Dr. Zhang, I'll wait for you at the table over there."

"Okay." Zhang Huaide glanced at the food and said to the chubby kitchen chef: "Master, fish-flavored shredded pork, soy sauce chicken, hand-shredded cabbage, and a tomato and egg soup."

"Here, you can pay by credit card."

Zhang Huaide took the stainless steel plate, which was full of food, and directly approached the cash register with his holographic watch.

drop! [Please pay 7 yuan]

Zhang Huaide clicked and agreed to pay, then took the food and went to Fang Ping's table. The currency used here was Mars currency. If it was Australian dollars, it would be automatically converted into Mars currency.

"Mr. Fang, you used to work for Haifeng Wind Power?" Zhang Huaide asked after sitting down.

Fang Ping, who was nibbling on the Tomahawk Steak, swallowed the meat in one bite, nodded and joked: "Yes, I used to work for Haifeng Wind Power, but your nuclear power revolutionized it!"

"Haha, times are developing, of course we must keep pace with the times." Zhang Huaide said with a smile.

"It's just a joke, don't take it seriously." Fang Ping picked up a glass of iced watermelon juice and took a sip.

"It's okay, we are all family members. Wind power and photovoltaics still have great potential. After all, the transmission lines in many remote areas are imperfect. Using wind power and photovoltaics with batteries, we can be self-sufficient." Zhang Huaide certainly knows the impact of nuclear fusion on wind power and photovoltaics.

"By the way, Dr. Zhang, how much power does this 100-billion-kilowatt-hour nuclear fusion power station produce in a year?" Fang Ping asked curiously while eating.

After all, this 100 billion kilowatt-hours is too vague. Is it 100 billion? Or 200 billion? Or 900 billion? These are all at the 100 billion kilowatt-hour level.

"The annual power generation is about 314 billion kilowatt hours." Zhang Huaide replied.

"So much?" Fang Ping knows how much power generation capacity there is in Oceania. Currently, due to the power investment of the Galaxy Consortium, the annual power generation capacity in Tu'ao is about 55 million kilowatt hours, of which the wind power and photovoltaic divisions account for 21% and 37%.

Unexpectedly, just one nuclear fusion power station can exceed 60% of the power generation capacity of Tu'ao.

"Not much, the power generation capacity of Jinwu No. 1 is about 10 times that." Zhang Huaide said directly.

"10 times?" Fang Ping, who had just been promoted to branch director, obviously didn't know the inside information yet.

"In fact, when it first started trial operation, the power generation capacity of Jinwu No. 1 was only about 2.1 trillion kilowatt hours. Later, the chairman transformed the power generation system and adopted the latest temperature difference power generation system. Now not only the power generation system has been simplified, but the power generation efficiency has also been improved. Improved." Zhang Huaide suddenly laughed as he spoke.

"What's wrong?" Fang Ping asked confused.

Zhang Huaide shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Haha, I just thought that we spent some unjust money. We used steam turbines to generate electricity before. Now that we use temperature difference to generate electricity, the 60 steam turbine generator sets are directly useless. Fortunately, we built them 24 units, otherwise we will lose a lot of money.”

In fact, after switching to the latest magnetic fluid power generation system and thermoelectric power generation system, the two systems combined can increase the thermal efficiency to an astonishing 80% to 86% (magnetic fluid 38% to 44%, temperature difference 42%).

Theoretically, 1 gram of DD nuclear fuel can produce approximately 87,000 kilowatt-hours of electrical energy. Of this energy, thermal energy that can be directly or indirectly utilized accounts for about 83.8% (44.8% of photothermal conversion, 27% of direct thermal energy, and helium plasma residual Thermal energy 12%).

After this change, not only the power generation system was greatly simplified, but the cost was also reduced. In addition, the problem of miniaturization was also solved.

This one in Nandu is called Jinwu Type B [No. 003], 001 is in Dongdao, and 002 is in Gaoli.

Originally, this 003 was intended to be sent to Siam. Later, Huang Haojie took into account the strategic needs of Nandu and assigned No. 003 to Nandu.

As for Dongying District and Fuso District, the Galaxy Consortium is also recently preparing to allocate No. 004 and 005 of the Jinwu B type to replace the nuclear fission power plants in their territory.

Especially the problem of the Fukushima nuclear power plant. The Galaxy Consortium is trying to solve the nuclear leakage. All these dangerous nuclear fission power plants will be shut down under the plan.

However, the nuclear fission power station of Sun Country still brought a lot of legacy to the Galaxy Consortium, such as 47 tons of plutonium.

The reason why they have so much plutonium reserves is because their nuclear power plants use uranium-plutonium mixed oxide, which is 2-3 times more expensive than uranium-oxygen raw materials and is highly dangerous. The reactors also use poor safety materials. Fast breeder reactors, and boiling water reactors have only one circuit, which leads directly to the turbine.

This backward nuclear reactor is the technology of the first generation nuclear fission power plant. The reason why they use this technology is mainly to refine plutonium.

This plutonium can be used directly to make mushrooms. It just so happens that the Galaxy Consortium doesn't have to refine it themselves, so they can use 47 tons of plutonium directly. They don't need it anymore anyway.
