After Ye Fei finished researching their technology, he immediately connected with the rest of the technology of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

Ye Fei and the others studied the most difficult technology, while the rest studied the slightly less difficult technology.

In addition, Ye Fei and the others had their research suspended for more than three months because of the explosion.

Therefore, Ye Fei's research was the last to be completed.

At the entrance of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute!

Ye Fei stood at the door of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute with a group of people.

Ye Fei stood at the head of the crowd, and a middle-aged man standing next to Ye Fei asked, "Dean, who will come today?" Who else is there besides Deputy Director Qi? ”

All the technologies of controlled nuclear fusion have been successfully studied, and someone from above must be sent down to look at them.

Ye Fei and the others stood at the door of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute, just waiting for the people above.

Ye Fei shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know very well, it didn't tell me who it was." ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Ye Fei's mouth, and he said: "All the technologies of controlled nuclear fusion have been successfully researched, no matter who comes from above, they will not embarrass us." ”

The rest nodded slightly.

Also, they've researched all the techniques, and they shouldn't be in trouble with them.

Besides, it was Ye Fei who led them to do research, and looking for trouble with them was looking for trouble with Ye Fei.

Who would dare to trouble Ye Fei in the scientific community of Xia Kingdom?

Ye Fei raised his wrist to look at the time, and said, "It's almost time, it should be up." ”

As soon as they finished speaking, they heard a faint beep, which was the sound of the propellers of the plane spinning.

Ye Fei and the others looked up at the sky.

I saw three helicopters flying from a distance, and then landed not far from them, rolling up the yellow sand on the ground.

Then, a group of people got down from the helicopter, led by Geng Ye, director of the Department of Science and Technology.

Behind Geng Ye, there are Qi Yong, deputy director in charge of controlled nuclear fusion, Xu Mingshan, president of the Institute of Atomic Energy, and Gao Gao, director of the Institute of Plasma of the Xia National Academy of Sciences in Heshi.

There are also many directors of research institutes that study controlled nuclear fusion.

As soon as Geng Ye got off the plane, he waved his hand to Ye Fei and smiled: "Academician Ye! ”

Ye Fei waved his hand, and then led someone to meet him.

After Ye Fei and the others approached Geng Ren and the others, the two people shook hands with each other and said hello.

Ye Fei smiled: "Geng Si, I didn't expect you to come here in person, welcome!" ”

Geng Ye laughed and said: "You have studied all the controllable nuclear fusion, I have to come, controllable nuclear fusion is the most important technology for the future development of our country." ”

Ye Fei stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please, and said, "Geng Si, please!" ”

Geng Ye nodded slightly, and then a group of people walked towards the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

After entering the Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Institute, Ye Fei also knew what Geng Ye wanted to do most, that is, to see the controlled nuclear fusion technology they had developed.

So, Ye Fei took them to check the controlled nuclear fusion technology for the first time.

Inside the main control room!

This is the place to control controlled nuclear fusion and to view all the information about controlled nuclear fusion.

The general control room is more than 200 square meters, in which many computers are placed in an orderly manner, and a large display screen is hung on a whole wall.

When Ye Fei entered, there were many researchers sitting in front of the computer working.

When they saw Ye Fei coming in, they all stood up and said hello to Ye Fei.

Ye Fei pressed his hands and motioned for them to sit down and continue working.

Ye Fei and others stood in front of the large display screen, and Ye Fei called up the data of controllable nuclear fusion.

Ye Fei said: "Everyone, please see, this is the controlled nuclear fusion that has been researched. ”

"Now it's just the end of all the research on the technology, and there is still a gap between assembly and testing, and after the assembly, after half a year of testing, it means that the research on controlled nuclear fusion is successful."

"Now I'm showing you a copy of the assembled controlled nuclear fusion."

Everyone nodded slightly and looked at the big screen.

Controlled nuclear fusion resembles an eight-story edifice.

The controlled nuclear fusion is circular and divided into eight layers, each with a thick iron pillar in the middle, and the iron pillar is hollow between the iron pillar and the outer iron film, like a circular walkway.

Ye Fei said: "The controllable nuclear fusion is circular, there are a total of eight layers, each layer is three meters high, the eight layers are twenty-four meters, and the diameter is ten meters. ”

"The area of each layer is the same, the diameter of the middle cylinder is three meters, the distance between the cylinder and the outer layer is three meters, and the thickness of the outer layer is one meter."

"When controlled fusion operates, seawater enters a cylinder in the middle of each layer from the first layer at the bottom, and then converts the seawater into deuterium and tritium from the second to the fourth layer."

"Then from the fifth layer to the seventh layer, deuterium and tritium are converted into energy, and then the energy enters the eighth layer, and the eighth layer can save and release energy."

The abundance of deuterium and tritium in seawater is almost constant.

Because of this, controlled nuclear fusion is the cleanest, safest and most reliable source of energy.

Coupled with the fact that Xia has a very long coastline, for Xia Guo, having controlled nuclear fusion is equivalent to having unlimited energy.

After listening to Ye Fei's words, everyone nodded slightly.

Ye Fei said: "Next, I will explain to you the technology of each layer, the first layer ......"

Ye Fei spent most of the day briefly explaining the techniques of each layer to them.

It wasn't until more than six o'clock in the evening that Ye Fei's explanation ended.

Ye Fei raised his wrist to glance at the time, and said, "Everyone, let's go to dinner!" ”

Ye Fei said jokingly: "I'm here in the Great Northwest, but there is nothing delicious to eat, they are all very ordinary meals." ”

Geng Ye said with a smile: "Academician Ye, with the controllable nuclear fusion you have developed, even if you give us soil, we will all eat happily." ”

The rest of the people laughed.

Ye Fei smiled: "Everyone, please!" ”

After saying that, everyone walked outside and went to the cafeteria to eat.

Ye Fei did prepare very ordinary meals for them, and the researchers of the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute ate whatever they ate.

The food at the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute is very good, with vegetables, meat, fruits, and soups.

Geng Ye sat opposite Ye Fei with a dinner plate and asked, "Academician Ye, after the successful research of controllable nuclear fusion technology, when will it be assembled?" ”

Ye Fei tilted his head and thought for a while and said, "In a year!" ”

Geng Ye frowned slightly and asked, "Does it take so long?" ”

Geng Ye thought that if it was assembled in the near future, he could stay and watch.

But it was assembled a year later, and he still had things to do in the Science and Technology Division, so he couldn't wait to stay here for a year.

Ye Fei said: "The assembly requires some machines to assemble, there are no such machines here, and they need to be transported from outside." ”

"Also, there are many parts of controlled nuclear fusion, which need to be manufactured by the whole country, and there are many parts that we can't manufacture and need to be manufactured by foreign companies."

"That's why it took so long."

Geng Ye nodded slightly and asked, "How long will it take to assemble it?" ”

"Three months!"

"So long?" Geng Ye said in astonishment.

With modern industrial standards, it takes three months to assemble controlled nuclear fusion, which is indeed a long time.

Even for a quantum computer, it only takes a month to build a quantum computer.

Ye Fei smiled helplessly: "Geng Si, there are a lot of parts in controlled nuclear fusion, some parts are very large, and some parts are only the size of a hair. ”

"Moreover, there are some parts that we need to assemble manually, and the machine can't assemble them at all.

"So, the assembly speed is very slow."

Geng Ye nodded slightly, and said helplessly: "Okay!" ”

Geng Ye asked, "Are you still staying here all the time?" ”

"Yes!" Ye Fei said: "I have been staying here until the controlled nuclear fusion test is over. ”

Geng Ye and others stayed at the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute for another three days.

After that, except for Qi Yong, the rest of the people left.

Qi Yong is going to stay here and wait for the controlled fusion test to succeed.

A year later, all the parts of the controlled fusion were successfully manufactured and shipped to the nuclear fusion research institute.

There are also machines for assembling controlled nuclear fusion, which are also transported to the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

In the factory!

Ye Fei and Qi Yong stood together, and the two looked at the machines and parts that had been arranged in the factory.

A middle-aged man walked over and said, "Dean, you're ready." ”

"Hmm!" Ye Fei nodded slightly, then looked at Qi Yong.

Qi Yong smiled: "Academician Ye, you are the boss here, you can do whatever you want, I just watched from the side." ”

Ye Fei nodded, then looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Let's start assembling!" ”

"Good!"

The middle-aged man finished speaking and left.

Moments later, the machine boots up and begins assembling controlled nuclear fusion.

Ye Fei looked at the machine that was assembling controllable nuclear fusion, and said in his heart: "Controllable nuclear fusion technology is difficult, and the assembly difficulty is also high, even if there is a machine, it will take three months." ”

"With all the technology that has been developed so far, there should be no more complex machine on earth than controlled nuclear fusion!"

"Fortunately, I had the foresight to simplify the assembly of controlled nuclear fusion, otherwise it would be difficult to assemble it in three months, even six months."

At that time, Ye Fei considered that it would be complicated to assemble controllable nuclear fusion at that time.

Therefore, he developed a set of simplified methods for assembling parts.

Of course, the assembly of the parts was simplified, and the performance was not affected in any way.

Ye Fei looked at it for a moment, then summoned the middle-aged man and said, "You guys are watching here, I'll go first, and notify me if I have any questions." ”

It takes three months to assemble the parts, and it is impossible for Ye Fei to keep an eye on it all the time.

"Okay, Dean!" The middle-aged man said.

Ye Fei walked to Qi Yong's side and said, "Director Qi, are you watching here, or are you leaving?" ”

Qi Yong asked, "What?" You're leaving? ”

"Hmm!" Ye Fei nodded slightly and said, "It takes three months to assemble, and I can't stay here all the time!" ”

"Okay!" Qi Yong said: "Then you go, I'm here to watch." ”

Controlled nuclear fusion is very important, Qi Yong wants to watch it all the time.

So, it was impossible for him to leave.

Ye Fei said: "Okay, if there is a situation to notify me, I will be in my office." ”

"Okay!" Qi Yong said.

Ye Fei immediately left the factory and returned to the office.

Three months later, a vacant lot at the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

Here stands a 21-meter-tall circular machine, silver in appearance, which looks as if super-large sugar gourds are butted together, and it is controlled nuclear fusion.

Ye Fei looked at the controllable nuclear fusion in front of him, and said in his heart: "The assembled controllable nuclear fusion is the same as the one we simulated, and there is no deviation. ”

"Twenty-one meters high and ten meters in diameter!"

"According to our research, this controlled fusion can produce 3.6x10^17 joules of energy in one hour, which is 100 billion watts of energy and 100 million kilowatts of electricity."

"That's 876 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity a year."

"Xia needs nine trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity a year."

"As long as there are eleven controllable nuclear fusions, we can meet the electricity needs of the people of the whole country."

"However, this one is very expensive."

Ye Fei: They spent more than $30 billion to create a controlled nuclear fusion.

This is also because controlled nuclear fusion was developed by Ye Fei, so the manufacturing cost only needs the cost price.

"Eleven will cost more than $350 billion!" Ye Fei clenched his fists fiercely, and said excitedly in his heart: "But it's worth it." ”

"It took more than $350 billion to create 11 controllable nuclear fusions, which can meet the country's electricity demand."

"Moreover, the energy released by controlled nuclear fusion is pure natural and pollution-free."

"If it is a nuclear power plant, spending 500 billion dollars to build a nuclear power plant, the electricity produced in a year cannot meet the needs of the whole country."

"In addition, nuclear power plants are polluting and the cost of producing electricity is high."

"Controlled nuclear fusion produces electricity because the material is extracted from seawater."

"So, the cost is very low."

"Of course, whether it is a nuclear power plant or controlled nuclear fusion, it requires a lot of money to maintain it later."

"But overall, controlled fusion is much cheaper to operate than a nuclear power plant."

"After the controlled nuclear fusion operation, the electricity in Xia Guo will be very cheap."

"The current price of electricity is 0.52 to 0.57 yuan per kilowatt-hour of electricity, and when controlled nuclear fusion is used, the price of electricity may be cheaper as a dime per kilowatt-hour."

"The more controlled fusion you build, the cheaper your electricity will be!"

"If more controlled nuclear fusion is made, you can also sell electricity to foreign countries, which can make a lot of money."

Qi Yong walked over and said expectantly: "Academician Ye, you can start the test!" ”

As long as the test is successful, it means that the development of controlled nuclear fusion has been successful.

Qi Yong has been looking forward to this day for a long time.

Ye Fei nodded slightly and said, "You can start." ”

Ye Fei beckoned a middle-aged man and said, "Are you ready?" ”

"Dean!" The middle-aged man said, "Ready." ”

Ye Fei said: "Then let's start testing!" ”

"Yes, Dean!"

The middle-aged man left after saying that, and began to ask people to start the test.

Soon, controlled nuclear fusion was set in motion.

Although it is located in the northwest, it is close to Lake Hara, the largest saltwater lake in the Xia Kingdom, which is rich in deuterium and tritium.

Therefore, deuterium and tritium can also be extracted from the water in Hara Lake.

The Nuclear Fusion Research Institute is on the edge of Lake Hara, just over a thousand meters from Lake Harra.

Through underground pipelines, the water from Lake Hara is fed into controlled nuclear fusion.

Ye Fei looked at Qi Yong and said, "Director Qi, let's go over!" ”

"Good!" Qi Yong nodded.

Immediately, the two walked towards the monitoring room.

In the monitoring room, everything that can be controlled by nuclear fusion can be monitored.

After the two entered the monitoring room, there were many people working inside.

Ye Fei looked at the large screen hanging on the wall, which displayed all the data of controlled nuclear fusion in real time.

Ye Feixin said: "The lake water has entered controlled nuclear fusion, and it depends on whether it can be converted into deuterium and tritium." ”

Ye Fei's heart also began to tense.

All previous experiments were based on theory.

And the test is to verify the success of their experiments.

After a while, Ye Fei couldn't help clapping his hands and said excitedly: "Okay, deuterium and tritium have been successfully transformed!" ”

Qi Yong on the side was startled by Ye Fei's slap, but after hearing Ye Fei's words, he said excitedly: "Did you succeed in the first step?" ”

"Hmm!" Ye Fei nodded slightly: "The first step has been successful, and after that, as long as deuterium and tritium are converted into energy, controllable nuclear fusion will be basically successful." ”

"I'm very sure of the energy storage, and there will be no problems."

Energy storage technology is not a difficult technology, and it has been studied by countries for a long time.

Later, Ye Fei also developed this technology.

Ye Fei has not changed much to the technology, and it is still used in controlled nuclear fusion according to the conventional energy storage technology.

Next, Ye Fei and the others continued to look at the big screen.

Ye Fei watched the deuterium and tritium enter the fifth layer of controlled nuclear fusion, and his heart was pounding.

There are eight layers of controlled nuclear fusion, the first layer is the entry of lake water, the second to fourth layers are the extraction of deuterium and tritium from the lake water, and the fifth to seventh layers are to convert deuterium and tritium into energy.

The fifth to seventh layers are also the core technologies of controlled nuclear fusion.

If the fifth to seventh layers are okay, the deuterium and tritium will be smoothly converted into energy.

Controlled fusion, then, is a success.

Of course, the premise is that after half a year of testing, there are no problems.

Ye Fei's eyes were staring at the big screen tightly, and he felt difficult to breathe.

It wasn't until he saw that deuterium and tritium were smoothly converted into energy that Ye Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, a smile appeared on Ye Fei's face: "It was successful." ”

Qi Yong on the side was stunned, looked at Ye Fei and asked, "Succeeded?" ”

Ye Fei nodded slightly and said, "Well, it was successful." ”

Ye Fei turned to look at the rest of the people in the monitoring room and said with a smile: "Controlled nuclear fusion has successfully converted energy for the first time. ”

"Papapa......" Soon, thunderous applause rang out in the monitoring room.

After the applause stopped, Ye Fei said with a smile: "As long as there are no problems in the next half a year's test, controllable nuclear fusion will be considered a success." ”

"Dean, there will definitely be no problem." Someone laughed.

"yes, Dean, there will definitely be no problem."

“……”

The crowd was gossiping.

They say this, firstly, they wish that there will be no accidents in the half-year test, and secondly, they cheer themselves up and imply that they will pass the test smoothly.

Qi Yong said: "Academician Ye, I want to report this news to the above immediately." ”

Ye Fei smiled: "Go ahead, and make Geng Si happy." ”

Qi Yong nodded, and then left the monitoring room.

After leaving the monitoring room, he immediately called Geng Ye and reported the news to him.

Geng Ye smiled: "Very good, Qi Si, you will stay in the Nuclear Fusion Research Institute now, and wait until the end of the test, if there is any situation to report to me." ”

"Okay, Geng Si!"

Half a year later, the test passed without a hitch!

Controlled nuclear fusion has been successfully developed! (End of chapter)
