For the gift, start research and development of graphene batteries

Chapter 162 Finale, a giant leap for mankind
Academician Chen led the people away. After so many days of review, Jiang Ming was exhausted.

Reviewing this thing is to find out the problem, and it is not too much to say that it is critical.

Especially for major projects like nuclear fusion reactors, we are even more cautious.

The review team is gone, but the work of Jiang Ming, Cheng Ning, and Wang Shengxian is not yet over.

Therefore, the expert group still raised some questions about the reactor from various angles.

Regarding these problems, Jiang Ming, Cheng Ning, and Wang Shengxian all feel that they are quite reasonable. Therefore, the reactor needs to be modified urgently.

In addition, according to Academician Chen's opinion, since the demonstration reactor has already been manufactured, there is no need to save that little money, and the generator should also be equipped in place.

Jiang Ming also very much agrees with Academician Chen's idea.

After all, according to the opinions given by the expert group, there is a very high possibility that the ignition will be successful.

And even if the ignition is not successful this time, it will be successful in the not-too-distant future, and the equipment will never be wasted.

Therefore, Cheng Ning urgently arranged for someone to bring the generator set over.

Thanks to Cheng Ning's strong contacts, the four generators were quickly brought over.

The power of these four generator sets is relatively large. According to the calculation of power generation, the annual power generation is about 3000 billion kWh.

According to the annual consumption of more than 1000 billion kilowatt-hours in Kyoto, that is to say, the electricity generated by this demonstration reactor alone is enough for the annual consumption of the entire city of Kyoto.

With this calculation, we can know how terrifying the energy that nuclear fusion can provide is.

Moreover, this is still using a traditional large steam power unit. If a plasma generator can be developed, the power generation will be even more terrifying.

But it is also good to have a traditional generator set now.

Jiang Ming has an idea. After the experimental reactor completes his research mission, it will be connected to the power grid and used to supply power to the entire Kyoto.

By then, other thermal power plants in Kyoto can be shut down.

From another level, it can also be regarded as a contribution to environmental protection.

If there is still excess electricity, it will be lost to other provinces and cities, which will serve multiple purposes.

In this way, after spending half a month, the matter of controllable nuclear fusion was finally done.

Jiang Ming has been notified before that the first group of controllable nuclear fusion reactors will be ignited in the near future.

Leader Sun of Xiaguo Science and Technology Department will also attend the ignition ceremony to witness this sacred moment together.

In addition, in order to record this important moment, Xia Guo Radio and Television Station will also arrange a photography team to come to the scene to film the moment of ignition.

In addition, regarding the situation of the first group of nuclear fusion reactors, Xiaguo Radio and Television Station will also produce a documentary and interview Jiang Ming and others.

As for whether it will be broadcast in the end, it's hard to say, but according to Long Lao's intention, there will always be a day when it will be broadcast.

It's even possible that it was played recently.

After all, as a native of Xia, such a major breakthrough is something to celebrate.

Moreover, according to Mr. Chen's evaluation, the nuclear fusion technology is already mature, so there is no need to hide it.

After all, Xia Guo will build a large-scale reactor in the future, and this kind of thing cannot be hidden.

Rather than concealing it, it is better to announce it generously, which can also enhance the self-confidence of the people.

At that time, as long as you firmly grasp the relevant technologies in your hands, you will not worry about losing the initiative.

Because Leader Sun from the Ministry of Science and Technology and the TV station were coming, Jiang Ming and the others were busy again.

The most important thing is to clean up the entire fusion reactor, bundle some wiring harnesses neatly, and clean up the dust and garbage.

At the same time, LOGO is printed on some parts, so it looks more like a complete product.

In addition, some parts involving core technology are covered with things to avoid leaks.All in all, there were a lot of things, and it took a long time for Jiang Ming and the others to sort them out.

Looking at the fusion reactor in front of him, Jiang Ming was also full of emotions. It was finally time for the reactor to be ignited.

Leader Sun came, Long Zhiwei came, Chen Tianshuo also came, and many experts from the Ministry of Science and Technology witnessed this historical moment together.

In the controllable nuclear fusion control room, non-professionals are dizzy looking at the densely packed buttons on the panel.

You know, each of these buttons represents a control loop.

Laymen often say, why can't everything be made into one and simplified as much as possible.This is especially true on airplanes. Why can't it just be a few buttons?

Even if so many buttons can be remembered, in an emergency, it is also prone to operational errors.

Seeing this point of view, Jiang Ming can only say, young man, it is because you do not understand the design principles of engineering.

It is good to be simpler and simpler, but the pressure on maintenance personnel will increase to an incredible level.

What's more, once there is an internal problem with the equipment of this kind of project, there is no way to maintain it at all.

Second point, every button and every instrument is a control loop.When a problem occurs, these control loops can be used to troubleshoot the problem immediately and determine the problem point.

Then use the control button to take the optimal way to solve the problem.

This kind of timeliness is very demanding.This is especially true with high-end savvy devices.

Through this multi-loop, multi-detection point mode, the scope of investigation can be shortened in the first place.

In the control room, technicians are doing final checks.

All instruments and meters are self-checked again, and all parameters are confirmed one by one.

There are many parameters in the entire controllable nuclear fusion reactor, and they need to be checked. Therefore, it takes a lot of time.

Even so, the experts and scholars present did not show any signs of impatience.

Controllable nuclear fusion is a national priority and a systematic project.What's more, it is the first controllable nuclear fusion reactor, which is even more cautious.

It took nearly four to ten minutes for the technicians to check the entire reactor.

"The reactor inspection is normal and meets the conditions for ignition."

The technicians reported to Jiang Ming and gave the final conclusion.

Seeing this, Jiang Ming also heaved a sigh of relief.

"Leader, it's time to light the fire."

"As long as you press this button, the laser can be activated."

Jiang Ming said.

To put it simply, just press a button and the reactor will ignite.

But Jiang Ming knew that the control reactor had already started at this time.

The deuterium mixture has been heated to tens of thousands of degrees Celsius in the control tokamak device.

At this time, the reaction Tucarmack is also operating at a high speed, maintaining the ion state of the deuterium mixture.

Nuclear fusion has reached the critical condition, just waiting for the final blow.

Jiang Ming signaled to Leader Sun to let him light the fire.

As a result, Leader Sun waved his hand at Jiang Ming, and then said:
"The ignition and foundation laying of engineering projects must be done by the chief engineer of the project. This is the tradition of our Xia Kingdom, and it is also the glory of your project team."

Leader Sun responded.

Hearing Leader Sun's words and looking at the urging eyes of the surrounding experts, Jiang Ming felt the pride of being a Xia Guo technician.

Yes, controllable nuclear fusion was studied day and night by Jiang Ming and his technical staff.

As the chief engineer, I represent all the staff of the project department. This kind of honor belongs to the entire project department and all technical personnel.

No amount of money can buy this sense of recognition, this sense of honor.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming no longer hesitated, strode forward, put his hand on the button, and pressed it hard.

With the button indicator light on, everyone only heard a buzzing sound, accompanied by a slight vibration.

Jiang Ming knew that this was because the laser was storing energy with all its strength, and the energy on its surface was rapidly converging, just waiting for the moment of dawn.

This concentration of energy lasted for tens of seconds, and then, a bright white light was seen, emitted from the tip of the laser generator, directly hitting the plasma inside the reaction tokamak device.

Even through the brown anti-glare glass, everyone can still feel the dazzling white light and powerful energy of this laser.

With the addition of lasers, in the reaction tokamak device, the plasma of tens of thousands of degrees is locally heated to hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius in an instant.

Although it is only a few tens of milliseconds, within this short period of time, the kinetic energy of the deuterium nuclei in the reactor at the position irradiated by the laser is increased to the limit, attracting each other, and a fusion reaction occurs.

A fusion reaction that fuses deuterium into heavier helium and releases a lot of heat.

This kind of heat is extremely large, causing the entire reactor to instantly rise to hundreds of millions of degrees, and more deuterium participates in the fusion reaction.

This chain reaction, once started, will not stop unless the deuterium ions in the entire reactor are completely consumed.

In the control tokamak device, the continuous deuterium mixed solution is pre-treated and then enters the reaction tokamak to ensure the continuous progress of the fusion reaction.

As the temperature in the tokamak rises, the reactor's cooling device is also running at high power.With the heat transported out by the cooling device, the reactor's matching generator set starts to work.

In this way, a steady stream of electricity is generated.

The tokamak device is placed in a confined space. Although the internal situation cannot be seen from the outside, everyone can still see the operation of the reactor from the instrument.

"The temperature of the reactor has been raised to [-] million degrees Celsius."

"Cooling tower activated, 60% power load."

"The No. 1 generator set started to run, with a generating power of 800 million kWh. The generator set ran smoothly, the energy output was stable, and the data of each segment was normal."

With the issuance of the ignition command, the nerves of the technicians on the scene tensed up instantly.

At the same time, there are technicians in various parts, reporting parameters in real time, and monitoring each node.

After seeing that all the nodes were normal, Jiang Ming also let out a long sigh of relief.

After working for so long, the ignition was finally successful.

In particular, the first generating set has started to work, and its instantaneous power has reached 800 million kilowatts. Jiang Ming is also very excited.

You must know that the instantaneous power consumption of the entire city of Kyoto is less than 2000 million during peak hours, and a generator set can already meet the general needs.

There are four generator sets this time. At full power, they can provide a power output of about 3200 million kWh.

Even if it is used at a safe load of 80%, it is no problem to meet the electricity demand of the entire Kyoto city.

Leader Sun, Long Zhiwei, a member of the expert team, did not speak and quietly watched the operation of the reactor.

As of now, the reactor has been running for half an hour, and all the data are within the normal range.

It can be said that at this stage, the continuous operation of the reactor has exceeded the limits of any existing set of fusion reactors.

Controllable nuclear fusion has been successfully ignited.

But Jiang Ming wanted to test the operating limits of the reactor.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming said:

"Start the second generator set."

Hearing Jiang Ming's words, the eyes of the expert group lit up. It seemed that Jiang Ming wanted to test the limit operation of the reactor.

Jiang Ming's confidence is not small.

After all, according to the general process, it is to run it for a short time first, and then check it thoroughly.

After confirming that there is no problem, proceed to other tests.

Jiang Ming directly asked to increase the load, which proved that Jiang Ming had great confidence in the reactor.

This is indeed the case. The state of the controllable nuclear fusion reactor is beyond Jiang Ming's imagination.Judging from the existing data, the design of the entire reactor has reached the standard for commercial use.

Therefore, Jiang Ming didn't want to wait any longer, and Jiang Ming wanted to verify the status of the reactor under full power operation.

"The No. 1600 generator set is connected. The generating power is [-] million kilowatts."

After another ten minutes of operation, the output power of the reactor was stable.

"Connect the remaining two generators."

Following Jiang Ming's order, the entire four generator sets, with a total power of 3200 million kilowatts, were mobilized.

With such a large load, the status of the reactor is still stable and all data are within the range.

After running for another half an hour, Jiang Ming showed a look of relief on his face when he saw that the reactor was still in stable condition.

The operation of the reactor up to this moment has proved that the ignition is successful, the design of the first nuclear fusion reactor is no problem, and the era of controllable nuclear fusion has come.

"I declare that the controllable nuclear fusion was successfully ignited and the test was successful!"

Jiang Ming's voice spread throughout the control room.

At this moment, the experts and technicians on the scene gave out thunderous applause.

At this moment, the entire Xia Kingdom has waited for too long. At this moment, mankind has entered the era of controllable nuclear fusion.

On the second day after the successful ignition of the controlled nuclear fusion reactor, Xiaguo People's Daily reported on the successful ignition of the controlled nuclear fusion reactor.

Yesterday, a controllable nuclear fusion reactor led by Xia Institute of Nuclear Physics and led by Professor Jiang Ming was successfully ignited in my country.

Leader Sun of the Ministry of Science and Technology, Academician Long Zhiwei, and many nuclear physics experts witnessed this historic moment.

This is mankind's first controllable nuclear fusion reactor, and its technical conditions have reached the level of commercialization. This technology has filled the gap in the field of controllable nuclear fusion and paved the way for mankind to use nuclear energy peacefully.

In this research, Prof. Jiang Mingjiang, not afraid of hardships, led the team to fight on the front line, overcome difficulties, and made an indelible contribution to the smooth ignition of the reactor.

Professor Jiang has made outstanding contributions not only in the field of controllable nuclear fusion, but also in the field of batteries, anti-tumor drugs, and intelligent driving.

In recognition of Professor Jiang's contribution, with the approval of the Ministry of Science and Technology, Comrade Jiang Ming is now awarded the title of Academician of Xia Guo Engineering Academy!
