Chapter 404 Huanlong No. 1 has attracted continuous global attention
Doesn't this mean that the Huanlong-1 experimental device has achieved controlled nuclear fusion?
There was a heated discussion around the world about this topic.
There are three major thresholds for controlled nuclear fusion in the eyes of the global scientific community.
First, the temperature exceeds 100 million degrees. Because artificial nuclear fusion does not have the high pressure inside the sun, high temperatures are required to complete the fusion. And 100 million degrees is a necessary condition for deuterium-tritium fusion.
Second, artificial nuclear fusion requires a stable duration in addition to high temperatures. Because only when the plasma lasts long enough can more deuterium-tritium have a chance to collide and finally complete stable self-sustaining. Therefore, the mainstream scientific community believes that fusion plasma must exceed 1,000 seconds to be considered to have all the conditions for nuclear fusion.
Third, and most importantly, this is the case. Even the Q value, also known as the energy gain factor, must be greater than 1. Because only when the input energy is less than the energy produced can nuclear fusion continue steadily. Only at this time is nuclear fusion called nuclear fusion. The mainstream scientific community believes that nuclear fusion can only be called successful if the Q value is greater than 2.5. The Q value of Huanlong 1 has reached 3, and the duration has reached 1,200 seconds. This is already a proper nuclear fusion, is it good?
Although the ITER design device has the worst capacity, it is greater than 5 or more.
But the problem is that ITER is also just a plan.
It's a good idea, but it's not necessarily whether you can do it in the end.
The global media wanted to interview Su Han on this topic.
Su Han did not give an interview.
For him, the Q value is only 3, and there is still a world difference between his goal of 50.
So we're just getting started.
……
Julong Energy's Huanlong No. 1 Q value exceeded 3.
It continues to attract global attention.
The superior unit also sent a deputy representative to the Julong company.
I plan to see the true face of Lushan Mountain of this legendary Huanlong No. 1.
The deputy representative Su Han also knew.
It is the deputy representative of Han who is in charge of domestic science and technology projects.
The deputy representative came, and of course Su Han received him personally.
Su Han accompanied him to watch the test of Huanlong No. 1.
A second test though.
Huanlong-1's fusion lasted more than 1,400 seconds.
And Q actually reached 3.1.
It even broke the record for the first time.
Deputy Han was of course very happy to see this. Said: "Su Han! It seems that the R&D strength of your Longhan Technology is still beyond doubt. Work hard! Maybe your company will be the one who will completely solve the human energy problem in the future. ”
Su Han smiled: "Hopefully! However, I believe that this is definitely not something that can be done in a short period of time. Otherwise, nuclear fusion would not be a project that would take 50 years forever. ”
Deputy Han smiled.
……
The news that Longhan Technology has once again broken the world record for nuclear fusion has come out.
The world's attention was once again attracted by Longhan Technology.
Although this time the results have not improved much.
But no more is also an improvement.
In the future, it may be possible that over time, Huanlong No. 1's results will be better.
However, there are still some people who think that Longhan Technology is not a big deal.
Because iter's target Q value for the future is 10.
The Q value of Longhan Technology's Huanlong experimental device is only 3.1, which is still far from iter's goal.
"The Great Age of Genes"
After all, ITER is a team building program for the world's top scientists.
How can it be compared to a company.
However, netizens in Huaxia don't see it that way.
The world has been engaged in nuclear fusion for so many years.
The best result is only at the level of Q 1.25.
And the duration is still short.
Longhan Technology only made two shots and the Q value reached more than 3.1.
Then with the gradual commissioning and upgrading of equipment in the future.
In the future, it is not impossible to reach a Q value of 10 or more.
Maybe next time, Longhan Technology will be able to build an experimental reactor that can really generate electricity!
As nuclear fusion has once again become a hot topic of global discussion.
Many countries have also accelerated the testing of their own domestic nuclear fusion experimental devices.
However, this has brought great psychological pressure to experts in related fields in various countries.
Whether it is a high temperature of 100 million degrees, or a high temperature of 1,400 seconds, or a Q value of 3.1, it is an insurmountable mountain.
Even if these experts want to break their heads, they don't know how Longhan Technology did it.
Because in the opinion of these experts, among these three thresholds.
Either one is incomparable.
Many people called Longhan Technology directly to come and see their Huanlong No. 1 experimental device.
But they were all rejected by Longhan Technology.
Generally, relevant domestic groups will not refuse to visit Suhan.
The main thing is that he has recruited a lot of talents from various units.
Therefore, it has also offended many people.
This will naturally give some face.
But foreign teams have nothing to do with him.
Groups abroad didn't do much to help them.
Naturally, there is no need to give any face.
Longhan Technology is not allowed to visit.
Naturally, many foreign experts are also angry.
I had no choice but to do my own research.
But nuclear fusion is a harder project to think about than it is to do.
Let these experts also be incomparably big.
……
After the successful test of Huanlong 1.
Su Han transferred all the members of the Huanlong 1 design team to the inertial confinement fusion team.
Although according to Rhoda's meaning, the configuration of the Huanlong No. 1 should be strengthened.
Strive to create better results.
But in Su Han's view, no matter how Huanlong No. 1 is optimized.
And that's the end of the data.
As long as the Q value is above 50, it is not the nuclear fusion you want.
Then you have to build more fusion devices and collect more experimental data.
Since Su Han is the boss.
The boss insisted on it.
There is no way for Roda either.
In the end, he had to leave the device to his subordinates.
He went to Gu Shun'an to help.
At this time, the design of the inertial restraint experimental device led by Gu Shunan has been completed.
Now it's time for production.
In fact, there are also well-known projects in China about inertial confinement fusion devices.
That is, the famous divine light device.
So it's not a big problem from the design part.
The only trouble is that Su Han requires the control system to be intelligent.
This necessitated a redesign of the detection and calibration system.
Although it was a bit of a waste of time.
However, due to the fact that a large amount of the company's resources in the early stage were invested in the more mature ring tokamak.
Therefore, Gu Shun'an: This will also be design-oriented, not based on production.
However, see the excellent data of Huanlong 1.
Gu Shunan also thought that Su Han would put more resources into the upgrade and iteration of Huanlong No. 1.
Who knows that Su Han still insisted on building inertial restraint devices.
Gu Shunan had no choice but to get busy.
……
February.
The second group of lunar tourists of Haohan Company went to the moon.
It's still twelve.
Compared with the first batch of 200 million meters per person.
This time, the cost dropped to 150 million.
