Chapter 345: The Limitations of the Times
In the Chuanhai Materials Laboratory, while Xu Chuan was busy testing copper-carbon-silver high-temperature superconducting materials, on the other side, Gucheng, the second calculation of the mathematical model of plasma turbulence was finally completed.
With the data and model after verification, Gao Hongming quickly rushed back to Jinling.
According to the opinions of the staff of the Gucheng National Supercomputer Center and the two modelers arranged by Academician Peng Hongxi, the verification of the model was quite successful.
After adding various initial values and variables to the simulation, there were few problems with the operation of the model, except for an increase in the demand for computational power.
This reply made him very excited.
Although he is not a professional in the field of controlled nuclear fusion, he still knows something about being able to be arranged to assist in the construction of controlled nuclear fusion projects.
The control of plasma turbulence in the chamber of a controlled nuclear fusion reactor is an extremely difficult part of controlled nuclear fusion technology.
At present, neither the experimental reactors researched by various countries nor the ITER project of international cooperation have made much progress in the control of plasma turbulence.
Even stellarumers, which have a great advantage in plasma turbulence control, have not been able to control them for long periods of time.
At present, in terms of plasma turbulence control, the longest running time of the stellarator is six minutes, created by the stellarumer 'Spiral Stone 7-X' test reactor at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in the Germanic country.
And that's after replacing the top-of-the-line water-cooled deflector in late '19.
And six minutes, that translates to three hundred and sixty seconds.
This result is relatively long compared to ITER, which has taken the route of tokamak devices, and the longest running time of the tokamak devices in the ITER project is only more than 100 seconds.
Relatively speaking, the stellar-mimic 'Spiral Stone 7-X' test reactor, which was developed later, has been improved several times.
As for China, the current record is Luyang's "artificial sun" EAST experimental reactor, with an operating time of 101 seconds.
This figure is slightly lower than the ITER project of international cooperation, but it is enough to prove China's strength in the field of controlled nuclear fusion.
It's just that six minutes and 100 seconds are just as short for commercial long-term operation of controlled fusion reactors.
Compared with controlled nuclear fusion, controlled nuclear fission power generation can maintain uninterrupted power generation 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
It can only be said that there is still a long way to go to achieve controlled nuclear fusion technology.
But now, the light of controlled nuclear fusion has shone through the darkness, and the hope of controlling the turbulence of plasma is in his hands!
Can't wait, Gao Hongming wants to rush back and share the good news with that person!
He firmly believes that with this model, China's controlled nuclear fusion will definitely lead the world. Even, under the leadership of that Academician Xu, it is not impossible to successfully commercialize controlled nuclear fusion technology within ten years!
In the Chuanhai Materials Laboratory, the superconductivity test of high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composites has gradually come to an end.
With the release of the last round of magnetic induction intensity test data, the laboratory was cheering!
"22.714T, we made it!"
"152K, 22T high-temperature atmospheric superconducting material! It's incredible, it really happened! ”
"Awesome! Boss! He is worthy of being the winner of the Nofi Double Award and Double Academician! ”
"Our boss is out! There's no problem he can't solve! ”
Looking at the magnetic induction intensity on the screen, the researchers assisting in the test in the laboratory clenched their fists with excitement.
152K, the average critical magnetic field strength of 22.1T, the excellent performance of copper-carbon-silver high-temperature superconducting materials, breaking the current boundary of high-temperature superconducting materials and creating a new historical record.
Everyone looked at the young man standing in the center of the crowd with excitement, his appearance was like the arrival of a god, and no matter how difficult the problem was, it became easy in his hands.
In the crowd, Xu Chuan looked at the excited researchers with a smile on his face, and he said: "You have worked overtime during this time, and as a reward, I will give you three days of paid vacation!" The bonus and performance at the end of the year will not be less! ”
"In addition, I invite everyone to have dinner tonight, you can choose the location!"
As the words fell, the room began to cheer again.
"Thank you boss!"
"Boss atmosphere!"
"Awesome!"
"Off! Boss, can you take these three days off, I want to get together with the annual leave! ”
Hearing this, Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Of course you can." ”
As soon as these words came out, the cheers in the laboratory became even stronger, and Xu Chuan didn't care too much, he was happy when he should be happy, and he just worked when he should work.
During this time, these researchers in the institute have indeed been working overtime to complete his goal, and now that the phased goal has been achieved, he will not be less rewarded.
"By the way, boss, aren't you going to rename this material?" In the laboratory, Song Wenbai looked at Xu Chuan and asked.
He also knows the character of this boss.
If he doesn't mention this matter, he may probably be randomly assigned a name at that time, and it is even possible to call it 'copper-carbon-silver composite high-temperature superconducting materials' or '152K high-temperature superconducting materials'.
To be honest, it's a bit too real to fall into this name. It's a pity.
"A name?"
Hearing this question, Xu Chuan thought for a while and said, "How about calling it 'high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting material'?" ”
Hearing this, there was a sudden silence in the laboratory.
The corners of Song Wenbai's mouth twitched, is there any difference between this name and 'copper-carbon-silver composite high-temperature superconducting materials'?
The way he chooses the name of the boss is really lazy.
If he researches this kind of material that can change the whole industry, he will have to take a cool name or bring his last name, right?
Seeing that several people in the laboratory suddenly stopped talking, Xu Chuan asked hesitantly, "What, isn't this name good?" I think it's okay. ”
Song Wenbai: "."
Fan Pengyue: "."
Others: "."
Professor Tao Zhexuan is right, their boss is a name.
But then again, in the materials world, it seems that the name is generally named by the main ingredient or formula of the material by default.
Because it's more concise and easy to understand.
However, the name 'high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting material' is really unpretentious, and it might as well be called a 152K high-temperature superconducting material.
At least when others look at the latter, they know that it is a high-temperature superconductor of 152K.
Xu Chuan didn't pay attention to such a trivial matter as choosing a name.
He feels that the name of high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite material is not bad, and he doesn't use the abbreviation TTY material to do it, what is the pursuit of so high.
However, how to deal with high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composites made it difficult for him to choose.
In his eyes, 152K high-temperature superconducting materials are actually not a good thing, after all, he has seen room-temperature superconducting materials.
In contrast, with a temperature of 152K, the limitations are still quite large.
If it is really to be applied, it will be large scientific equipment such as large strong particle colliders and controlled nuclear fusion, as well as some medical or transportation equipment.
Although the market is vast, it is not completely disruptive.
If it is a superconducting material at room temperature, it is called a truly disruptive material.
Therefore, Xu Chuan has always regarded room temperature copper-carbon-silver superconducting materials as a killer feature, and high-temperature superconducting materials, for him, the initial arrangement was to make some money for himself.
However, Fan Pengyue's reminder made him react to another thing.
That is the limitation of the times.
It is now the beginning of the 20th year, not the era when high-temperature superconducting materials are everywhere more than ten years later, and there are also room-temperature superconducting materials.
At this point in time, the 152K high-temperature superconducting material is unique.
This material can play a great role in promoting the development of superconductivity in a country and even the whole world.
For example, the controllable nuclear fusion reactor that he has been thinking about since his rebirth, after the application of this high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite material, whether it is the difficulty of manufacturing, or the magnetic field and magnetic confinement ability generated, it will be greatly improved compared with before.
Or the Large Strong Particle Collider.
Today, the world's largest collider is CERN's LHC, which is made of niobium-titanium alloy and can only provide a magnetic field strength of 8.3 Tesla, and the collision energy level is also limited to 13Tev.
If replaced with high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting materials, the critical magnetic field strength of 22T is enough to increase the energy level to more than 100Tev, which is an order of magnitude.
And this can be said to have given wings to the development of theoretical physics, which can directly travel to the sky.
Just when Xu Chuan was thinking about how to deal with this high-temperature superconducting material, a person who was a little unexpected to him appeared in Jinling and appeared in the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute.
