Chapter 373: An experiment to create history

As the construction progress of the project continues to advance, on August 10th, EAST's new generation reaction device was completely constructed and entered the inspection stage.

The ignition time was finalized on August 15th after reporting.

This day was ordinary, nothing special.

August 15th in the Gregorian calendar is still far away from the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th in the lunar calendar.

Five days later, the day came peacefully.

Early in the morning, many leaders came to Luzhou one after another, including representatives from the Academy of Sciences, representatives of government officials, and some experts and professors in the field of controllable nuclear fusion technology.

These experts and professors are all within the system and do research in obscurity. They are completely different from the experts and professors who stand in front of the stage to popularize science and make publicity.

And those who are allowed to come here are also deeply trusted by the country.

Old Liu, I heard that there is a new breakthrough this time?

Comrade Xiao Zhou, tell me about your artificial intelligence and robot technology.

Lao Liu, I heard that this time I was treated very hard. We are all here to learn. You shouldn't let us go back disappointed, right?

I can not wait any more.

The arrival of the observers made the scene completely lively.

Although the excitement quickly subsided and everyone sat down quietly in their seats to watch the performance of Liu Yongfeng's team, this silence undoubtedly made Liu Yongfeng's team feel even more stressed.

Either the leader, the senior, or a colleague, if they make any mistakes, they will be slapped in the face.

If it fails, it will not just be a slap in the face, but a serious accident.

So this time, only success is allowed, no failure is allowed.

Professor Liu, let's begin.

Zhou Feiyu said to Liu Yongfeng without any disturbance in his heart.

Liu Yongfeng hesitated for a moment and said, Mr. Zhou, how about you preside over this ignition experiment?

No, you should come. This is your hard work. I just did a little bit.

Zhou Feiyu shook his head and said with a smile: Besides, after watching the ignition experiment, I have to rush home. My wife's due date is coming soon.

Ha ha……

Liu Yongfeng couldn't help but laugh.

Not far from the two of them, the beautiful reporter from Yangma quickly covered her mouth for fear of losing her composure by laughing. But the smile in the corner of her eyes still showed that she was having a hard time enduring it.

Start the device~

The current reaches a critical state~

Magnetic field adjustment completed~

The ignition experiment started at the pinch point. Under Liu Yongfeng's calm command, the orders were executed accurately, and everything ran very smoothly during the period.

Finally, at the last step, Liu Yongfeng took a deep breath, looked at Zhou Feiyu again, and pressed the final button.

This is a simple experiment, but also a major experiment.

With every experiment, EAST’s results are improving!

But this time, it was extraordinary.

Liu Yongfeng doesn't know what kind of performance they can achieve this time. They may fail, but they may also achieve a historic breakthrough.

As usual, he was very uneasy and his heartbeat was much faster than usual.

Zhou Feiyu's calmness made him have some thoughts the moment he pressed the button: This young man is amazing, so calm!

As the button was pressed, everyone present looked at the big screen without blinking.

On the big screen, there are various data of a new generation of reaction devices. Through these data, the real-time status of the reaction device can be clearly seen.

Behind the transparent glass cover, an extremely shocking voice came out, like a moan coming from the bottom of the endless abyss, making people's scalp numb and their hearts shaking.

Soon, a strong light shined through the transparent glass cover, illuminating the entire laboratory observation room.

The experimental observation room is very far away from the reactor, but it still cannot block the incoming sound and light.

It's so shocking!

Everyone present was shocked and dazzled.

This is the power of controllable nuclear fusion, the great power that stars rely on to shine, and the most fantastic energy source in the known universe!

The temperature has reached 100 million degrees~

Detect the occurrence of large discharge~

The discharge lasted for more than 100 seconds~

Continuous discharge exceeds 500 seconds~

The discharge exceeds 44,000 kilowatts, and the Q value reaches 2~

As the test results were reported one by one, everyone held their breath for fear that their breathing would affect the progress of the test.

Every test result made everyone present excited, which meant that this test went relatively smoothly.

Whether it is temperature, discharge occurrence, continuous discharge for 100/400 seconds, etc., although these are all results that have been often achieved before, the test is full of uncertainties, and no one knows where it will fail due to some reason. . Therefore, these achievements that were often achieved in the past are still worthy of joy.

When the result of Q value reaching 2 was announced, the people present finally couldn't help it anymore and applauded one after another.

They did not speak loudly and remained calm, but the applause could not but be enthusiastic.

The Q value is greater than 2, which means that the energy released by this nuclear fusion has reached twice the input energy, which is a gain.

The reason why controllable nuclear fusion is controllable is that it requires energy to control the reaction.

This control does not mean controlling the occurrence and shutdown of the reaction, but refers to controlling the nuclear fusion reaction in the magnetic field, controlling the extremely high temperature, pressure, etc. in the magnetic field, so as not to touch the components of the device itself. .

Currently, there is no material in the world that can withstand the hundreds of millions of high temperatures during nuclear fusion reactions!

This high temperature can only be controlled within a magnetic field, which is magnetic confinement.

Once the high temperature touches the components of the device itself, the device will immediately be destroyed, and the entire laboratory, and even the city where the laboratory is located, will suffer disaster!

The magnetic field required for magnetic confinement is generated by the input current, and this is the energy consumed.

If the energy released by nuclear fusion is less than the input energy, it will be a loss-making business. It will definitely be a loss-making business and no one will do it.

Only when the energy released is greater than the energy input, is it worth doing.

Prior to this, until 2000, the Q value of controllable nuclear fusion did not exceed 1.

Now, their Q value has reached 2, which is undoubtedly a gratifying achievement.

Soon, the continuous discharge time of this nuclear reaction exceeded 1,000 seconds, and then exceeded the previous record of 1,056 seconds, constantly moving towards new records.

Everyone gave another burst of warm applause.

1100 seconds, 1200 seconds, 1500 seconds, 1800 seconds, 2200 seconds...

The applause quickly stopped and was replaced by silence. Everyone held their breath again and stared closely at the data that was rapidly refreshing on the big screen.

At this moment, they are witnessing history.

Report the extent of damage to installation components.

Liu Yongfeng released his sweaty hands and breathed a long sigh of relief. He knew that he succeeded this time, but he still couldn't relax.

Report! The damage to the structure is 0.5%!

Soon, a monitoring engineer gave him reassurance.

Liu Yongfeng was immediately overjoyed and had only one thought in his mind: It's time to build a real commercial reactor!
