Yang Zhou spent a whole day in the materials laboratory, doing a series of tests in addition to the melting point test.

I also learned how rebellious this material is and what aspects it can be used in.

In the evening, everyone ate in the small private room of the canteen of the Academy of Sciences, and Academician Liu patted his chest and promised: "As long as there are enough such materials, we will soon be able to successfully study controlled nuclear fusion!" In addition, major progress will be made in aviation aircraft! ”

Yang Zhou and Wu Zheng are both laymen, and they don't understand the Tao inside, so they put on a deaf look.

Seeing the expressions of the two, Academician Liu excitedly explained: "We have tested this material today, and it is very malleable, and at the same time the shrinkage performance is also very strong, but it is not a strong contraction, but a force of about 20 kilograms is retracting!" This kind of strength can be completely ignored, we can make a frame, we can fix the material, make it taut or semi-taut, a small piece of material, one square centimeter is estimated to expand to tens of hundreds of square meters. ”

"According to Professor Yang, even if the output of this material is only a few tens of square centimeters per month, it is enough to use!"

Tens of square centimeters, about four or five stalks that replicate fungi can be produced, and Yang Zhou has already tried to make Genesis Mushroom No. 1 produce a large number of unrealistic.

Because it also needs to absorb and transform various elements, there is a time process.

Unless it is planted in the mysterious space, let the creation mushroom of the mysterious space produce replicating fungi, but in this way, it consumes all kinds of elements in the space.

Judging from the limited production of growth spring water in the mysterious space, there must also be an upper limit to various trace elements, so Yang Zhou will not produce replicating fungi in large quantities without restraint.

It will only allow Genesis Mushroom No. 1 to absorb trace elements everywhere in the Tengger Desert, and produce as much as it can.

Hearing Academician Liu say that dozens of square centimeters are enough, Yang Zhou showed a happy smile.

"But we haven't found a way to glue it now, so that shouldn't affect the use, right?" Yang Zhou wondered.

Academician Liu laughed when he heard this: "What's this, with the current shrinkage and malleability, we can completely use this material to make skin!" And bonding can use a variety of glues, and even iron is used as a binder. ”

"For example, if we plan to make a supermelted water pipe, we can wrap an iron pipe in it first, and then keep straightening the supermelted material, and then press the interface with huge force, and finally the supermelted material will be tighter and tighter, and finally comparable to welding, with the thermal insulation of this material, the use of KD-855L metal special instant adhesive can also be, and then the thermal insulation ability will ensure that the bonding place will not be subjected to high temperature, and it can also be sealed."

Academician Liu pointed to the sky and continued to give an example: "Another example is the space station in the sky, we can use more than ten square centimeters of material to wrap the space station, and leave some channels in the middle to put various instruments, which is no problem at all, so that the space station has two layers of protection, plus a thruster, even if it is driven to the moon, it is no problem." ”

"Also, the reason why controlled nuclear fusion has not been able to be achieved for so long is because of the special device made now - superconducting tokamak, which is a ring-shaped container that uses magnetic confinement and vacuum insulation to achieve controllable nuclear fusion, is very large, unstable to use, and may have problems at any time."

"This is because humans don't have containers for particles that hit at high speed after high temperature and high pressure."

"But the advent of supermelt materials is equivalent to the container has been found! The Little Sun team naturally has the ability to create a real Little Sun. ”

"In short, the emergence of this material will bring earth-shaking changes to all walks of life in our country! Maybe next year, we will be able to see that the energy used by the engine has become a controllable nuclear fusion electric energy ion engine, which can run for decades without needing to be recharged! ”

"With this stuff, it's going to be very easy to go to other planets and build space bases."

Wu Zheng laughed and said: "That's great, I'm 76 years old this year, I thought I wouldn't see the space base built in my life, but now it's okay, it's worth a toast!" ”

"Come, let's go!"

As he spoke, he picked up his beer glass and wanted to drink with everyone.

Academician Wu is old, the liquor can't bear it, and the beer can still be drunk, Yang Zhou and Academician Liu also happily touched the cup with him, and everyone drank it all.

Yang Zhou still has a half-understanding of controlled nuclear fusion, and the surface skin of a space station or fighter jet can be understood, which is the same as putting a special material film on various steels now.

But what about controlled nuclear fusion?

In Yang Zhou's understanding, nuclear power plants are boiling water, and it is estimated that controllable nuclear fusion is about the same, and this energy utilization rate is actually very low.

Yang Zhou asked the doubts in his heart.

"Controlled nuclear fusion, is it still boiling water today?"

"This should still be the case for the time being, at present, we use thermal energy, the most efficient is to boil water, coal-burning power plants are also using this principle, first transfer heat energy to water, produce water vapor to drive the turbine of the generator to rotate to generate electricity."

"The same is true for nuclear power plants, our controllable nuclear fusion, in fact, is to miniaturize nuclear power plants, since this supermelted material can resist 1 trillion degrees of high temperature, let nuclear fission occur in the supermelt material, transfer heat through the pipeline, and finally turn the water in the container into water vapor, and then form a large cycle of driving the engine, condensation and so on."

"In the future, we may be able to find a more efficient way, but for now, we still have to go this route." Academician Liu nodded.

In the enclosed space, there is no loss of water molecules, so the whole process is made into a whole, which is controlled nuclear fusion, and there is no need to add water or fuel during operation, and the engine will continue to rotate to generate electricity until the nuclear materials are exhausted.

"Then I wish us the same breakthroughs in the fields of controlled nuclear fusion and aerospace!" Yang Zhou poured the beer again, and everyone clinked glasses again.

On this day, Yang Zhou and the other two old academicians were drunk, and they were all taken home by security.

We talked a lot during the period, and Yang Zhou didn't remember it very well.

He seems to remember that he hooked up with Academician Liu and asked him to do a good job in the application of supermelt materials in the field of physics, and they would strive to produce more supermelt materials.

I hope that next year we will be able to use the electricity generated by controlled nuclear fusion, see the emergence of aerospace fighters and spaceships made of special materials, and see China conquer the moon and Mars and build bases on them.

Take the first step towards conquering the universe!

The two old men were as happy as the children at that time, and Academician Liu promised that he would personally report to the above and keep the news of the breakthrough in material technology confidential.

Quietly investigate other applications of controlled nuclear fusion and supermelt materials.

Strive to scare everyone next year!
