Chapter 115: Small nuclear fusion atomic furnace

After Zhang Wei taught Beidou his useful knowledge, he let Beidou play by himself. As the world's first true artificial intelligence, Beidou can run wild on the Internet, and can reach any corner of the Internet in an instant. It may hang out in China in the last second, and then go to the United States in the next second. .

However, Zhang Wei ordered Beidou to prevent Beidou from causing trouble or being discovered by others.

Beidou agreed very cleverly, and then excitedly entered the vast Internet world.

At this time, Zhang Wei finally had time to study the small nuclear fusion atom furnace technology rewarded by the system.

For this technology, he is full of expectations.

Nuclear technology, in addition to being able to manufacture nuclear weapons, can also be used in medicine, industry, and agriculture, and can solve human energy crisis.

At present, nuclear technology is divided into nuclear fission technology and nuclear fusion technology.

Nuclear fission is the change of one nucleus into several nuclei. It mainly refers to a form of nuclear reaction that splits a heavy nucleus into two or more atoms with smaller mass. In this process, huge energy is released. Nuclear fission reactions can only occur with very large elements such as uranium and plutonium. The nuclear bomb uses nuclear fission technology.

At present, mankind has mastered controllable nuclear fission technology, such as nuclear reactors in nuclear power plants.

Nuclear fusion is the opposite of nuclear fission. It refers to atoms with small mass, mainly deuterium or tritium (helium 3 is also possible). Under certain conditions (such as ultra-high temperature and high pressure), the nuclei will polymerize with each other to generate new mass Heavier nuclei (such as helium) will release more energy than the nuclear fission during this process. The light and heat of the sun come from the nuclear fusion reaction in which the hydrogen inside turns into helium.

At present, mankind has mastered the uncontrollable nuclear fusion technology, that is, the hydrogen bomb! The power of a hydrogen bomb can be said to be hundreds of times that of an atomic bomb! It has been said that hydrogen bombs can bring enemy countries back to the Stone Age!

It's just that uncontrollable nuclear fusion can only be used to make the ultimate killing weapon that can destroy humanity, but the energy it produces is currently not available for human use.

Only by mastering the technology of controllable nuclear fusion, can we use nuclear fusion to obtain energy, and it is an infinite energy source.

As we all know, helium 3 is recognized worldwide as an efficient, clean, safe, and cheap nuclear fusion fuel. 8 tons of helium 3 can solve the total energy supply of China for one year, and the energy required by the world every year is only 100 Tons of helium 3.

Although helium 3 has very little reserves on the earth, the soil on the surface of the moon is rich in helium 3, which is estimated to be millions of tons. What is the concept of millions of tons of helium 3? This means that as long as mankind has mastered the controllable nuclear fusion technology and can develop the moon's helium 3 resources, there will be no energy crisis for thousands of years!

Therefore, controlled nuclear fusion technology and space and space technology are related to the fate of the country!

However, controlled nuclear fusion technology is not something that can be achieved, it is quite difficult!

Nuclear fission can occur as long as it is under the natural conditions of normal temperature, and the thermonuclear fusion currently studied by humans requires an instant high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees to initiate. Such a high temperature cannot be achieved by traditional heating methods. When mankind developed a hydrogen bomb, it was through detonation of a nuclear bomb to obtain the temperature that reached the nuclear fusion reaction, which caused nuclear fusion to cause the hydrogen bomb to explode. Therefore, there is a small nuclear bomb inside the hydrogen bomb.

Therefore, there are two key issues in studying controlled nuclear fusion.

First: How to heat the material of nuclear fusion to such a high temperature? (How to light the fuel in the stove?)

Second: After heating the material of nuclear fusion to such a high temperature, what can I use to install it? (How to prevent the fuel from burning through the stove?)

About the first question.

Nuclear physicists have designed high-energy laser ignition devices, such as the National Ignition Device in the United States. The laser will generate 192 laser beams and shoot it at a hydrogen target ball containing deuterium and tritium to make it collapse, and produce about 100 million degrees High temperature, which triggers the fusion of hydrogen atoms. And the collision process of the laser and the hydrogen target is extremely short, lasting only a few nanoseconds (1 nanosecond is equal to 1 part per billion).

About the second question.

So far, humans have not created any chemical structures that can withstand 10,000 degrees Celsius, let alone hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius.

To solve this problem, humans invented the "Tokamak" magnetic field confinement method, which uses a strong magnetic field generated by a strong current to confine the plasma to a small range to achieve nuclear fusion. Although it is close to success under laboratory conditions, it is still far from reaching industrial applications.

Therefore, although controlled nuclear fusion is very beautiful, it is still far from human beings.

However, these difficulties are something that other people need to consider. Zhang Wei is different. He belongs to the opener. The big inventor system has rewarded him with a full set of technology for making small nuclear fusion atomic furnaces. All he needs to do is to digest and absorb this knowledge!

……

Because of a solid knowledge base, Zhang Wei spent only five days to fully master the small nuclear fusion atom furnace technology rewarded by the system.

At this time, he was completely shocked and couldn't help but give the system crazy praise!

Because this technique is more powerful than he thought.

First: The small nuclear fusion atomic furnace is very small, how small is it? The smallest can reach the size of the fist! This is a tangible black technology that is about the size of the Ark Reactor invented by Tony Stark in the movie "Iron Man".

And how big is the fusion reactor currently being studied by mankind?

Take the "artificial sun" ITER project as an example.

The ITER program, also known as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor Program, is led by China, the European Union, India, Japan, South Korea, Russia, and the United States, with 35 countries participating and covering more than half of the world ’s population. International Space Science Project of the Space Station.

Public information shows that the height of the ITER experimental reactor is 24 meters and the diameter is 30 meters, and the volume of plasma to be generated is 840 cubic meters!

However, the diameter of a small nuclear fusion atomic furnace is about 10 cm! Such an atomic furnace can be installed on intelligent robots, flying cars and other products.

The technological gap between them is at least a few hundred years!

Moreover, compared with the ITER project, the small nuclear fusion atomic furnace technology mastered by Zhang Wei is still a complete ~ www.readwn.com ~ a concrete and controllable nuclear fusion technology!

Second: The small nuclear fusion atomic furnace uses cold nuclear fusion technology, using palladium as the electrode, as long as the normal direct current is heated to allow the palladium element to react, the ignition of the nuclear fusion reactor can be completed.

The thermonuclear fusion technology currently being studied by humans requires an instant high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees to complete the ignition of the nuclear fusion reactor.

The technical gap between them is like a rift.

Third: Among the materials of small nuclear fusion atomic furnaces, there is a new type of nano-composite material, which is thirty times harder than titanium alloy steel, and also more dense than titanium alloy. The working temperature is from minus 523 to minus 3300 degrees. Strong corrosion and radiation resistance. The only problem is: the cost is too high. If such a material is used to make an intelligent robot, the cost will definitely exceed RMB 200 million.

However, Zhang Wei is also ready to grind his teeth to produce a little more of this nano-composite material, to create a group of powerful intelligent robots.

Fourth: When the reactor undergoes a nuclear fusion reaction, the temperature will continue to rise, like the center of the sun, exceeding 20 million degrees Celsius. No material in the world can withstand such high temperatures. In order to solve this problem, the high temperature of the reaction body is not allowed to burn through the atomic furnace. The small nuclear fusion atomic furnace rewarded by the system adopts a new technology, that is, the energy shield technology. An airtight insulator can restrain energy and temperature in the protective cover, so that energy and temperature cannot be conducted out!

This energy shield technology has made Zhang Wei bright ~ www.readwn.com ~ Welcome readers to visit and read the latest, fastest and hottest serial works ~ www.readwn.com ~ Mobile phone users please read .
