With the instructions in the main control room, the transformed Daybreak Fusion device started its steps again.

This is a steel behemoth, with hundreds of millions of degrees of ultra-high temperature plasma in its abdomen, slowly moving towards the gate called 'Hope'.

The retuned, or even replaced, superconducting coils in the outer field, after countless simulations by supercomputers, are as steadily adjusting the confined magnetic field in the dawn fusion reactor chamber as expected.

A simulated high-temperature plasma, made up of helium-3 and hydrogen, rotates in the chamber as if the Earth were being pulled by the sun's gravity, in a predictable orbit.

Little by little, time passed, and soon it was forty-five minutes.

This is a critical juncture, and the last run of the test stopped there. The reason for this is that the temperature of the first wall, and the load on the high-temperature plasma that is occasionally out of confinement magnetic field control, is approaching its limit.

As for now, judging by the various data detected in the general control room, the situation seems to be not bad.

Looking at the data on the console, Xu Chuan's ears also rang with the work reports of each group.

[The current confined magnetic field is stable, and the outer field coil is in good condition!] 】

【. 】

[The neutron wall load of the first wall has reached 0.27MW/㎡, and the current plasma load increase is expected to be damaged in six hours! 】

【. 】

The reports rang in his ears, and Xu Chuan listened carefully, analyzing the relevant data.

After confirming that the current Daybreak Fusion Device was in good condition, he gave the command to 'continue operation'.

It has to be said that after readjusting the control model of the field coil and the re-optimized plasma turbulence, the state of the Daybreak fusion device is much better than he predicted.

Problems such as minor magnetic surface tearing and plasma magnetic islands, which were originally present in the high-temperature plasma simulation operation of helium-3 and hydrogen simulation, were suppressed in this operation.

As a result, the temperature and load rise rate of the first wall is much lower than that of the first running experiment.

Sure enough, a fusion fusion device is the way out for controlled nuclear fusion.

Of course, whether the optimized Daybreak fusion reactor is as good as theoretically and whether it can support the important task of controlled nuclear fusion still depends on the subsequent deuterium-tritium operation experiments.

That's the real test.

Time passed little by little, and in the blink of an eye, it was approaching eleven forty-five minutes in the afternoon.

Since the start of the experiment at 9:30 a.m., the high-density plasma in the reactor chamber of the Dawn fusion device has been controlled for more than two full hours.

In the general control room, after confirming that the Daybreak fusion reactor was still in good operating condition, Xu Chuan re-issued the order.

"Stop the simulation of helium-3 and hydrogen!"

"Roger!"

The two-hour high-density plasma simulation, combined with the data of various monitoring indicators of the main console, and the reports of various teams, are enough to prove the excellence of the optimized Daybreak fusion device.

Two hours is not the limit for it!

But for Xu Chuan, this time the operation experiment has achieved the first purpose, and the next step is the real actual combat.

With the daybreak device out of operation, the teams and units quickly got busy again.

Switching from simulated high-density plasma experiments with helium-3 and hydrogen to real deuterium-tritium fusion experiments is not a simple matter of replacing the feedstocks.

In this process, many of the original equipment that were not prepared to be connected or adjusted, such as the helium ash filtration device, the adjustment of the water-cooled deflector, the adjustment of the plasma turbulence numerical control model, and a series of things need to be prepared.

Even though a series of preparations were made in the past few days, there is still a lot to deal with today.

Even though it was close to noon and it was time for lunch, none of the members of the teams on the project had left their jobs.

Of course, lunch still has to be eaten.

After all, there is still a tough battle to be fought in the afternoon.

The boxed lunches, which had been prepared in advance, were delivered to the general control room and the staff of various posts on time at 12 o'clock.

Except for some work that needed to be checked as soon as dawn stopped, everyone took the lunch box and pulled it up, including Xu Chuan and a few news media reporters who came to follow up and report.

People are iron and steel, and they don't eat hungry for a meal.

Especially at a time of great importance like today, everyone has to be in good shape.

Hurriedly pulled a boxed lunch, Xu Chuan poured half a bottle of mineral water, and after pressing down the food in his throat, he quickly turned around and put himself into work.

The preparations began at 12 p.m. and were busy until 3:30 p.m., when the relevant equipment and adjustments were processed.

Standing in front of the main console, Xu Chuan looked at the readjusted Daybreak Fusion Device, and on the steel behemoth, it was obvious that some changes were not too big.

Taking a deep breath and glancing at the time, he said calmly: "Each team reports on the work!" ”

[The outfield coil has been adjusted!] 】

[The plasma turbulence CNC model has been adjusted!] Daybreak supercomputers are in good shape! 】

[The water-cooled deflector has been adjusted!] 】

[The ICRF heating antenna is in good condition!] 】

[The first wall test system is in place]

【. 】

The sound of one item after another resounded in the general control room with a powerful and somewhat excited tremor.

Everyone knows that this afternoon's test means that China's controlled nuclear fusion field is about to enter a new stage.

Xu Chuan stood in the general control room, listening carefully to the reports one by one, until the feedback from all the teams was completed and confirmed, he took a deep breath again and calmly issued new instructions.

"Attention teams! Now for the second round of testing! ”

"Roger!"

"Roger!"

“.”

With the new directive, the Daybreak Fusion Device awoke from its slumber and began a new round of changes.

External current supply!

Liquid nitrogen and liquid helium flow in!

Supercomputers and CNC models are in action!

The steady-state magnetic field rises steadily.

A previously achieved goal was repeated again, and the adjusted mathematical model of plasma turbulence controlled the superconducting coil in the outer field to generate a new confined magnetic field in the dawn fusion device.

The previously unused helium triple single-particle electromagnetic detection system was also connected.

With the completion of one requirement and stage after another, Xu Chuan's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated a little.

"Report! At present, the state of the dawn fusion device has reached the expected goals, and the relevant equipment is in good working condition, and the deuterium-tritium raw material can be passed into the ignition experiment at any time. ”

Zhao Hongzhi, who was in charge of the overall status of the dawn fusion device, came up and reported the situation.

Xu Chuan nodded, and said calmly and forcefully: "Enter one milligram of deuterium tritium raw materials!" Start the ignition run experiment! ”

With the issuance of the order, responsible for various tasks, the personnel of each group of control rooms quickly got busy.

"Deuterium-tritium raw materials have been introduced!"

Hearing this report, Xu Chuan looked at the main console, involuntarily held his breath, and clenched his hands.

Whether it succeeds or not depends on what follows.

PS: The second is to ask for a monthly pass.
