Chapter 29 The Principle of Reaction
(The scientific knowledge in this article is pure author's nonsense, please do not study it as a scientific classic.) Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoDon't think of the author as a person who compares with Newton and Einstein, it's really ashamed! )
If the most revolutionary achievements in the third era of science and technology are nuclear bombs and the use of nuclear energy, the discovery and utilization of domain fields and energy vorts means the arrival of the sixth era of science and technology.
This kind of virtual material, which is different from the original material of reality, is the product of human beings' thorough understanding of matter.
Something was created out of nothing overnight, and it was no longer groundless.
Creation and destruction are in the same thought.
For example, the domain field computer in Zhao Luo's hand is the initial application of the early sixth era of science and technology, which is not much different from ordinary computers in essence, and there are other places, but the appearance can be changed as you like, and it is not confined to the form.
However, the domain field energy spin matter is not omnipotent.
First of all, the essence of this kind of matter is the macroscopic embodiment of energy concentration, so it needs an uninterrupted supply of energy, as long as the supply is stopped, these energy conspirators will not be able to maintain the material form, and will be transformed into light energy, heat energy, and dissipated in space.
Secondly, because there is no covalent bond and molecular bond of ordinary substances, the hardness of the energy spin substance cannot be regulated.
The macro hardness is absolute, that is, the virtual and real projector can project super solid walls, but it can't project a gentle and comfortable quilt.
This is the difference in nature from other substances.
Therefore, the energy spin matter cannot completely replace the role of real matter.
However, because of the existence of absolute hardness, domain field substances are widely used for military purposes.
Space warships, military bases, and when dealing with external attacks, they will open the energy shield of the field matter.
As long as the energy supply is sufficient, this shield is very difficult to break.
The base that Zhao Luo wants to establish is based on this principle.
"The virtual and real projector needs a lot of energy to project a base within a radius of ten kilometers, but now the energy is insufficient."
Zhao Luo looked at the indicator on the pedestal, showing that the energy charge was only thirty percent, and it was not possible to use the antimatter annihilation heap in it to continuously generate a large amount of energy required by the domain field.
Although most people don't understand the principle of building a base that Zhao Luo said, they know that if they can really create matter out of thin air, the energy consumed must be huge.
"Is it necessary to build a nuclear reactor first?" Xu Yuntian guessed that in the past, with a double master's degree in theoretical physics and nuclear physics, she thought that her knowledge in this area was no worse than others, at least among her peers.
In time, it is natural to get a doctorate in a related major.
It was only after meeting Zhao Luo that she realized that her knowledge was still very superficial, at least she couldn't understand the nuclear reaction principle of three helium polycarbon.
But she knows that nuclear energy technology is by far the most efficient energy technology to provide energy, and as a non-renewable resource, nuclear energy is almost inexhaustible, and it will not be able to deplete the nuclear energy resources in the sea within 10,000 years.
So when Zhao Luo said that he needed a lot of energy to build a base, Xu Yuntian naturally thought of using a nuclear reactor as a carrier to provide energy.
Maybe he can still help, even if he can't help, from Zhao Luo's attainments and level of nuclear physics.
She can also learn something.
It's just that he was soon splashed with a basin of cold water by Zhao Luo. "The energy produced by the nuclear reactor is too small to be enough."
"Nuclear reactors produce less energy?" Xu Yuntian was dumbfounded. Studying nuclear physics, she was a little too happy that Zhao Luo belittled her subject so much, and she couldn't help but want to defend herself. "The energy produced by the fission of one kilogram of weapons-grade uranium is theoretically equivalent to the energy released by more than 18,000 TNT explosives, and the energy produced by the fusion of deuterium-tritium is even greater."
"Is there less nuclear energy of this magnitude?"
"Of course, nuclear energy is a complete explosion of ordinary explosives, but the conversion rate of mass energy is still too low."
"Low?"
"I ask you, why does a nuclear reaction produce energy?"
"In the nuclear reaction, there will be a single neutron decay into protons, and the total mass will be reduced in this process, according to the law of conservation of mass and energy, this part of the reduced mass is converted into energy release, which is the power of nuclear weapons, and the huge energy produced by nuclear reactions." Xu Yuntian learned this, so she could naturally say it easily.
"In the case of deuterium-tritium fusion, for example, how much mass would be converted into energy in an ideal state." Zhao Luo continued to ask.
"Ideally, one kilogram of deuterium-tritium fuel, after a complete reaction, will lose its mass by 0.16 grams, and this 0.16 is converted into energy."
"In other words, the mass-energy conversion rate of nuclear fusion is only 1.6 per 10,000, which is why I say that nuclear reactions are too out. There will also be nuclear waste that is difficult to dispose of, and it is simply impossible to consider the use of nuclear reactors to provide energy. ”
The nuclear reactor, which is widely used all over the world, is devalued by Zhao Luo, and if it is known to those thorny countries that want to delve into nuclear weapons even after breaking their scalps, they will directly cry and faint in the toilet.
Of course, other countries don't know.
Only Xu Yuntian knows, as a top student of nuclear physics, she feels a little aggrieved.
But she is not to blame, the influence of the family environment made her choose this path.
In the future, the lethality of nuclear bombs is no longer enough, coupled with the low utilization rate of nuclear reactors, nuclear physics majors have become unpopular, and the employment prospects of graduates are quite narrow......
The most desirable job is...... Technicians of fireworks and firecrackers factories!
The energy supply of the virtual and real projector is an antimatter annihilation heap. Through the excitation of high concentration energy, the neutrons in matter are decomposed into positively charged electrons and negatively charged protons, which will be annihilated with positive matter in an instant, releasing huge energy and driving more matter to annihilate.
The theoretical energy utilization rate can reach 99.98......%, and only a small number of neutrinos escape.
This is the principle of the antimatter annihilation reactor, and the main body of the base has its own miniature reactor.
The reactor has a wide range of raw materials, as long as it is a substance, it can be used, and the vast ocean in front of us undoubtedly provides an inexhaustible supply of reaction raw materials.
Now there is only one problem, the reactor needs initial energy in order to reach the critical value of the reaction, that is, it needs to be charged.
How to recharge...... You can only choose radiant energy, and the metal umbrella is also a tool for absorbing radiant energy, and under the current conditions, the only radiant energy that Zhao Luo can get is solar energy.
So...... The pain is that nothing can be done until the reactor is recharged with solar energy.
I just hope that before the reactor is charged, Lao Xu doesn't come over!
"Help me erect this metal umbrella." Zhao Luo wanted to insert the metal umbrella into the pedestal, but it was too heavy and a little difficult.
