Chapter 354: Miniaturization of Controlled Nuclear Fusion Reactors

Zhou Yu asked Xianghua to turn on the quantum simulation function of the quantum server.

He began to prepare to turn his inspiration into technology.

According to the technical background of Xinghuo Technology, Zhou Yu thought of providing portable energy without energy storage.

Instead, portable energy is provided by reducing the size of the power generation unit.

A power generation unit that is both clean and can provide a huge amount of energy, of course, is a controlled nuclear fusion reactor.

As long as the controllable nuclear fusion reactor is miniaturized, it is a far more efficient energy storage method than the particle battery, and even more efficient than the energy block proposed in science fiction movies.

Particle batteries store the electricity generated by the power station and provide it to electrical equipment for consumption.

Now Zhou Yu is ready to do it in one step, directly eliminating the intermediate links, so that the controllable nuclear fusion reactor can directly provide energy for electrical equipment.

If a controlled fusion reactor wants to be miniaturized, there are too many technical hurdles to break through.

Controlled nuclear fusion reactors need to maintain temperatures of up to 50 million degrees Celsius in order to continue thermonuclear reactions.

In larger sites, the thermonuclear reaction process of a controlled nuclear fusion reactor is controllable.

Once reduced to a 100-square-meter house, or even smaller.

The means by which to control the process of thermonuclear reactions are extremely complex and difficult.

An uncontrollable thermonuclear reaction is a powerful hydrogen bomb.

As controlled fusion reactors shrink in size, both thermal insulation and thermal conductivity need to be replaced, and existing materials are no longer able to do their job.

The thermoelectric generator needs to be completely transformed, and the current thermoelectric generator can no longer meet the needs of the miniaturization of controllable nuclear fusion reactors.

This is almost the overthrow of the original controllable nuclear fusion reactor, and a new controllable nuclear fusion reactor is redesigned according to the principle of the controllable nuclear fusion reactor.

Zhou Yu now has to find new materials to build a controlled nuclear fusion reactor.

His own confidence is very high, and Zhou Yu is a person with a golden finger.

The tech tree in my mind was designed for a controlled fusion reactor, but there was no fusion reactor technology.

This has happened many times, and Zhou Yu summed up his experience.

That is, this technology has not yet been introduced, but it has made a breakthrough in a certain aspect and can barely be used, but it has not been recognized by the technology tree.

As for the tech tree, Zhou Yu is very cautious now, except for the key technologies that the Spark Technology scientists can't complete, he won't use the tech tree to develop ordinary technologies now.

Zhou Yu is only publishing some advanced theoretical knowledge at the Academy of Science and Technology and putting forward some realizable conjectures.

In the early stage of the development of Spark Technology, scientists can replace the technology on the technology tree with the technology of science and technology.

Now that the technical level of Xinghuo Technology is already very high, it should not be fueled and stifled the creative ability of scientists.

Zhou Yu is only responsible for providing inspiration, and scientists turn inspiration into technology.

Technologies such as the miniaturization of controlled nuclear fusion reactors must be developed by the Technotree, and now the scientists of Xinghuo Technology are not capable of developing them.

Zhou Yu and artificial intelligence Xianghua work together to continuously replace the original materials of controllable nuclear fusion reactors with new materials.

He experimented with all the materials that Xinghuo Technology had developed, and found no material that met his requirements.

Zhou Yu was not surprised by this situation, the technical difficulties of small controllable nuclear fusion reactors are too high.

Its demanding requirements for materials have exceeded the understanding of scientists on Earth.

Zhou Yu builds virtual materials on a quantum computer and uses them to simulate small controllable nuclear fusion reactors.

If this simulation scheme is successful, the technology tree will give him some feedback, allowing Zhou Yu to judge whether this technology is feasible.

The quantum computer began to simulate a controllable nuclear fusion reactor based on the virtual materials set by Zhou Yu and quickly based on the performance of these virtual materials.

The clock is ticking, and the quantum computer is running at high speed, simulating tens of thousands of times.

Each plan, Zhou Yu needs to read in detail, trying to cause the fluctuation of the technology tree in his mind.

In the blink of an eye, more than two months have passed, and there is still no progress in the miniaturization of controlled nuclear fusion projects.

Lu Jinming has completed the preparations for the lunar advance base and is waiting for Zhou Yu's order to start building the lunar advance base.

Li Qihua has also completed the ground test of the gravitational engine.

The gravitational engine is powered directly from a controlled nuclear fusion power station, and the gravitational pull it produces is very powerful. It basically meets the design requirements.

In his office, Zhou Yu reads again about the miniaturization of controlled nuclear fusion, which is simulated by a quantum computer.

He knows that there is no need to rush now, and scientific research is not in a hurry to make a breakthrough.

It is necessary to accumulate bit by bit to summarize the experience of failed projects and avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.

Zhou Yu was reading this plan when he sensed golden raindrops falling in his mind.

The tech tree shuddered and new technologies were generated.

Zhou Yu looked at the newly generated controllable nuclear fusion reactor technology.

After a cursory reading of the technique, his heart was filled with excitement.

This controllable nuclear fusion reactor technology is no longer a very large technology, and it can freely adjust the size of the controllable nuclear fusion reactor according to the different power generated by the generation.

The largest controllable fusion reactor can be built the size of Mount Tai, and the smallest controllable fusion reactor can be built to the size of a palm.

After the miniaturization of the controlled nuclear fusion reactor, its safety performance has been further improved, and even if the controlled nuclear fusion reactor is violently impacted, it will not cause catastrophic consequences.

This controllable nuclear fusion reactor perfectly fits the energy supply needs of various projects of Xinghuo Technology.

Zhou Yu immediately convened a technical seminar of the Spark Science and Technology Research Institute.

The top scientists of Xinghuo Technology gathered together to jointly study the miniaturization technology of controlled nuclear fusion reactors.

Zhou Yu provided technical information to various scientists.

"This is the technology I deduced from the miniaturization of a controlled nuclear fusion reactor using a quantum computer.

The project is technically perfect, and it will become a reality if we overcome the challenges of materials and processing technology.

Particle cell technology is no longer able to meet our demand for a huge energy supply.

What we can and can only do now is to miniaturize fusion reactors and move them to places that require huge amounts of energy.

I believe in your strength, and we have to get this technology done. ”

Xinghuo scientists have devoted their main energy to the miniaturization of controlled nuclear fusion reactors.

Zhou Yu watched as the scientists received tasks in their respective fields and returned to the laboratory for research and development.

He knew that some of the levels of the project were extremely difficult and could not be completed in a short period of time.

Even the most optimistic estimates suggest that the project to miniaturize a controlled fusion reactor will take about 10 months to complete.

Once some difficulties cannot be overcome for a long time, and the project cannot be completed in three or five years, it is normal.

But it is a very important project, after the breakthrough in the miniaturization of controlled nuclear fusion reactors.

Xinghuo Technology is like a wild horse that has broken free from the reins, and will never be bound by energy supply problems again.
