The researchers on the console quickly adjusted the parameters of the temperature control system, reducing the heat dissipation power of the first inner wall by 16.7 percent.

The effect is immediate, the temperature data that was originally fluctuating up and down is rapidly rising after reducing the heat dissipation power, and the temperature of the first inner wall material is rising rapidly, of which the No. 18 area rises the fastest, and even the No. 19 area next to it is also affected and the temperature begins to be somewhat abnormal.

Time passed by second, and the time came to 58 seconds, and suddenly, the plasma ribbon that had been shining with dazzling light dimmed, and the fusion reaction was interrupted.

As a result, the plasma also fluctuates, which then bursts.

Before the researchers on the console could react, the terrifying thermal shock generated by the moment the plasma burst erupted from the core of the tokmak, and the last screen displayed by the monitoring system was that the temperature data was soaring in a straight line, and then the entire system was reduced to darkness......

Tick tick tick!

The system issued an alarm, and a preset safety program was automatically activated, and the entire laboratory was silent, and Academician Wang's eyes widened and shouted: "Lu Yi! ”

Everyone is a professional, and they don't understand what is happening at this moment!

The inner wall material is crumbled and peeled off and is caught in the plasma to form serious pollution, the fusion reaction is interrupted, and the associated plasma is also destroyed in advance.

Originally, according to the pre-safety procedures, the experiments of ignition and fusion using experimental reactors were carried out in a pinching of time.

The data will be carefully monitored, and when the device is about to reach its limit, the injection of deuterium and tritium will be interrupted in advance, the nuclear fusion reaction will be interrupted in advance, and then the plasma will be maintained and the temperature will be lowered step by step until the entire test is interrupted.

However, because Lu Yi decided to reduce the heat dissipation power of the first inner wall material, the inner wall material will break and fall off at high temperature.

This is not a demonstration reactor, and the materials and structural design of the experimental reactor are not very suitable for ignition fusion.

In addition, this is not a stellarumer, and the stellarite may be able to hold the plasma from bursting due to the plasma fluctuations caused by the sudden interruption of fusion, and with the confined magnetic field generated by the fixed external magnetic field coil.

But the way Tokmak's magnetic field and plasma are coupled makes it like a delicate little woman encountering a rude man in such an accident, and there is no backhand.

The main thing is that this is not the thermal shock caused by the bursting of ordinary plasma, but the plasma that is still undergoing a nuclear fusion reaction a moment ago, how terrifying is the thermal shock caused by such a burst?

You don't need to think about it to know that at this time, the core area of Tokmak is the site of a magma eruption, and it has melted into one.

Fortunately, the fusion intensity of the test was not too high, otherwise it would not have been the core of the tokmak fused together, but the entire reactor would have exploded.

"How?"

Lu Yi didn't care about Academician Wang, who was already anxious, but kept writing down data in his notebook one by one and handed it over to Lin Meng to help calculate.

"The data is incomplete, and we also need the assistance of large-scale supercomputing."

Lin Meng frowned and calculated for a while, and said, "But judging from this data side, there should be no problem with great certainty." ”

"Chief Engineer Lu, just now the first inner wall material broke and fell off?"

Seeing that Lin Meng had paused the analysis and operation, Professor Cai, a material expert next to him, swallowed his saliva with difficulty and asked, because Academician Wang, who was staring at him with a pair of rabbit eyes, was already staring at him.

Before the accident, the temperature monitoring was still good, and it did not exceed the limit heat resistance of beryllium ceramic alloys.

But even in this case, the inner wall material still broke and fell off, so there is no doubt that there is a problem with the first inner wall material to be tested and collect data.

"If you look at the circumstances of the accident, 99 percent of the time."

Lu Yi said, turned his head and said to the researcher on the console: "Make a copy of the data just now and yesterday's data, and Professor Cai will contact the Shangjing Materials Laboratory to ask for a copy of the information and preparation process of all the inner wall materials tested yesterday and today, the more detailed the better."

Director Zeng helped me contact the large-scale supercomputer, I have a mathematical model here that requires more than 200,000 TFlop/s supercomputing resources for auxiliary computing, if there is no accident, this thing is done! ”

Is this done?

As soon as Lu Yi's words came out, everyone present was stunned, and even Academician Wang, who was still staring, restrained the anger on his face.

"At present, there is no problem with a high probability, but it is still necessary to improve the preparation process according to the calculation results of the mathematical model, and then test and determine the newly made materials."

Lu Yi nodded, in today's increasingly advanced mathematics, mathematical models have been able to go deep into the quantum level to analyze and calculate some cases of elementary particles.

Now with mathematical analysis of material properties that only jump at the atomic level, and on the premise of giving a mathematical model, there is enough valid data, then there is no problem at all.

For Lu Yi, he lacks everything, that is, he is not short of money and various mathematical models.

A mathematical model of beryllium ceramic alloy is priced at only 380,000 points, which is not expensive.

"But...... Chief Engineer Lu, looking at the situation just now, EAST Tokmak has been scrapped. ”

Nearby, an EAST researcher hesitated for a moment and said what he wanted to say.

"It's okay, the HL-2A in the southwest should be overhauled soon, and it will be fine if it is not completely overhauled and forcibly start a test."

“......”

"Chief Engineer Lu, this is the test data from last night and today."

After waiting for a while, a researcher took a large-capacity portable hard drive and copied the data from last night's and today's experiments.

The tokmak was scrapped, but the software-level control system was on a mainframe computer in another part of the lab, where the collected data was transmitted and stored in real time.

"Lu Yi!"

Seeing Lu Yi holding the mobile hard drive and preparing to leave, Academician Wang finally couldn't help it, stepped forward and suppressed his anger and said, "If you fail this time, I will definitely go to Yangcheng and smash your stellarizer!" ”

"Academician Wang, you can not believe me, but you must believe in science, believe in data, and the data tells me that this time it should be fine."

Lu Yi smiled and said: "The thermal shock that broke out just now is not too strong, and the Tokmak should be scrapped on the first inner wall and lithium breed cladding and the deflector, and the peripheral components and coils are still fine, and it should be repaired in a few months."

In this maintenance and overhaul, you can use the new materials and new structural design developed this time, and it is no problem to change it to Tokmac.

A bill was sent for the costs and maintenance involved, and I signed off for the joint fusion project appropriation. ”

"Fusion joint project grants, do you know how expensive this repair is? Spending 30 billion in 2 months is the only thing you can do! ”

Hearing Lu Yi's words that he didn't care about the funds, the anger in Academician Wang's heart that had just calmed down came up again.

Spending 30 billion in 2 months, he can't think of such a thing, God knows how many researchers' glasses in China have fallen to the ground, and how many older generation scientists are slapping the table and jumping their feet, they are all from the era when one dollar of funds was spent as two dollars.

"Then I personally pay for this trial mistake, and you will send me the specific bill later, and I will pay it privately."

Lu Yi really doesn't care very much, 30 billion he can borrow casually from the bank with the share mortgage of the compression chip, and when Li Yashan's layout of cancer suppression drugs is completed, he doesn't even need a loan.

It's no problem to even 30 billion, not to mention that EAST Tokmak can't support 200 million in maintenance costs now.

"Okay, Academician Wang, don't get entangled, we're different.

Originally, I didn't need the above appropriation this time, but if the above insisted on giving it, I could only spend it. ”

Lu Yi looked at Academician Wang, who was a little dazed, waved his hand and said, "I'll go and get busy first, wait for the good news, the absolute value of the scrapping of EAST Tokmak this time!" ”

After speaking, Lu Yi took Zhang Qing and Lin Meng and walked quickly to the outside of the laboratory, preparing to use supercomputing to verify and analyze the data of these experiments.

"You say...... Will he really succeed this time? ”

Seeing the backs of Lu Yi and the others disappear from sight, Academician Wang exhaled deeply, turned his head and asked his assistant in the laboratory.

"I don't know, but I hope he succeeds."

The assistant shook his head, the progress of the nuclear fusion project in the past two months and the ability shown by Lu Yi made it impossible for them to be unconvinced.

"yes, it's better to succeed, nuclear fusion is commercialized, it's too long to wait......"
