Chapter 430: Controlled Nuclear Fusion Succeeds
In the command center, Zhao Min, Li Chengzhi, Wang Nian, Li Jian, etc., all arrived. Chen Mo was standing on the stage of the command center, and below him were the researchers involved in the experiment.
In the first four experiments, the data parameters have been gradually optimized, and in the fourth experiment, the values have both exceeded the theoretical values.
Now they need an opportunity, an opportunity to break through the bottleneck. As long as it breaks free from a certain value, the plasma can continue to operate without being limited by time.
This is the fifth experiment, and it is also an opportunity.
If this experiment is not successful, it is necessary to modify the [Star Ring] to improve some of its performance parameters before the next experiment can be carried out.
As Chen Mo pressed the start button, the star ring was activated, the fuel injection was completed, and all the work was ready to be completed.
"Prepare for the ignition countdown. 10… 9……”
The voice of artificial intelligence makes some people's palms clench unconsciously, and their hearts are constantly praying.
“3… 2… 1… Ignition. ”
At the beginning of the moment, the circumferential field current instantly becomes zero, and in the vacuum chamber, under the super induced current, the deuterium-tritium gas instantly fuses and becomes plasma.
"The ignition was successful, and the plasma temperature was 98.37 million degrees Celsius...... Deuterium-tritium fuel is being injected ... Increasing plasma pressure... Heating the plasma ......"
The ignition was successful, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued to stare at the computer screen.
Next, it's the crux of the experiment. The first four were successful ignitions, and they kept breaking records, but the plasma was finally extinguished, and their hopes were pinned on this fifth experiment.
There was silence in the command room. Everyone's eyes are on the computer screen, and they can't take their eyes off it.
Time passed minute by minute, and the time for the plasma's stable operation was constantly refreshing, and their hearts were beating wildly.
The temperature of the plasma has reached a terrifying 120 million degrees Celsius, and the continuous discharge time has exceeded 1000 seconds, reaching 1032 seconds, and now every additional second may be a limit.
Because no one knows at what point the plasma will be able to reach the critical value of that bottleneck and jump out.
"The data is normal, the plasma is stable."
"Plasma stabilized."
"Plasma stabilized."
……
Every ten seconds, the voice of the artificial intelligence rings in the command center. The continuous discharge time has already exceeded the 1042 seconds of the fourth experiment.
The operation of the continuous discharge continued, and everyone in the command center waited quietly, although they were just staring at the computer screen, but no one was impatient and even wanted to continue like this forever.
"Longitudinal magnetic field stability...... Angular magnetic field stable ......"
"The ion whirlwind wave heating system is working fine, and the ohmic heating system is working fine."
"The pellet feeding system is working properly......"
"The plasma temperature is 135 million degrees Celsius, and the plasma is stable."
"The temperature of the first wall is 2208 degrees Celsius, the deflector is working stably, and the cooling system is stable."
"[Star Ring] is running stably."
……
Listening to the voice of artificial intelligence, everyone felt as pleasant as heaven, and everyone unconsciously smiled, including Chen Mo.
Time has passed 1800 seconds, more than half an hour. The plasma inside the Star Ring is already stable, and the fusion reaction can be carried out spontaneously. The consumption of deuterium-tritium fuel is also reduced by 30% compared with the consumption in the same time in the previous experiments, which has shown that the tritium self-sustaining inside the plasma has been formed, and the fuel utilization rate has been improved.
The plasma has broken through a specific peak, and the fusion energy reacts spontaneously, and as long as the deuterium-tritium fuel is charged, the plasma combustion time can continue to run steadily and will not be extinguished.
Soon, an hour passed, and the continuous discharge of the plasma continued, and the data was still stable and did not mean to go out.
The eyes of many researchers were unconsciously focused on Chen Mo, waiting for Chen Mo to close the coffin. Some researchers, their bodies trembling, desperately trying to hold back the excitement in their hearts, just waiting for the last moment to erupt.
They have worked hard for so long, and today they finally got the results they wanted.
After carefully reading the data of the stable operation of the [Star Ring], Chen Mo finally showed a smile that he had not seen for a long time. Now it is clear that the plasma has not been extinguished, which indicates that the experiment has been successful.
His efforts have borne fruit today. Looking at the many hopeful eyes, Chen Mo walked up to the console, slowly approached the microphone and said, "Now I announce that the fifth experiment of [Star Ring] has been a complete success. Rejoice. ”
Rumble......
When Chen Mo announced his success on the console, the researchers of the entire Star Ring Experiment Command Center exploded instantly.
All the researchers desperately shouted, applauded and cheered, resounding throughout the control room of the command center.
More than forty people erupted into cheers that were not available in the hundreds. In the past, the quality of the researchers was polite, but this time it was finally completely released.
"It's a success, it's a success. Hahaha......"
"We made it......"
"Controlled fusion has succeeded."
……
Wang Nian, Li Jian and other academicians and experts sitting in the seats also shouted frantically regardless of their image at this moment, just hugged each other, crying and laughing.
Among them, they are all pioneers in domestic plasma research, and have witnessed the development of controlled nuclear fusion technology from scratch to leading the world, and now obtaining plasma that can continue to burn.
There are no words to describe how they are feeling at the moment. Just like the feelings of our ancestors who successfully detonated the first atomic bomb, only cheers and shouts can express their excitement.
Chen Mo was also infected by the fierce atmosphere, and laughed hehe, applauding while laughing.
He has spent too much energy to get to where he is today, and among the many technologies, the development of the [Star Ring] device is undoubtedly the most difficult.
From the decision to cooperate with the official, the negotiation between the two sides to set up the project, to the construction of the research institute and the Star Ring, to the current [Star Ring] experiment declared successful, it took him too much thought. This technology involves too many fields, and he came up with a lot of material technology and production technology in the science and technology library to successfully complete it.
Li Chengzhi was a little sad when he saw those academicians and experts who were crying like children, but he just applauded quietly on the side.
"Congratulations." Zhao Min, who was watching from the sidelines, was also infected by this atmosphere, and walked over to hug Chen Mo: "Congratulations on your success, at this moment, you are a big man standing in the center of history." ”
Zhao Min was also happy from the bottom of her heart, this was one of the few times she saw Chen Mo lose her temper.
In the past, Chen Mo was a leisurely and calm appearance, old like an old monk who saw through the red dust, no matter what happened, he was always calm. I didn't expect Chen Mo to be happy today, but thinking about the experimental results that Chen Mo got, she also knew that Chen Mo was happy and normal.
A revolution in human history is already in his hands, and this is a man who makes history.
"Thank you." Chen Mo patted Zhao Min's back and said with a smile.
Zhao Min let go of Chen Mo with some reluctance, and smiled: "What do you want to do most now?" ”
"What do you want to do most?" Chen Mo tilted his head and thought, "I want to go home and take a hot bath now, and then empty my mind, don't think about anything, and be naked. Sleep' once. ”
Poof......
Zhao Min was amused and threw him a roll of the eye.
The joyful atmosphere in the command center was still there, and many researchers shouted hoarsely, and they were left to applaud, ignoring the already reddened palms.
Unbeknownst to the outside world, a technology for human energy transformation has been developed on this humble island.
