Chapter 612 - Visit to the Saint-Le-Les Peninsula Nuclear Power Plant (4)

During the visit, Lin Chao always kept in sync with others.

Marvel when you should be amazed, be surprised when you want to be surprised, and take pictures when you can.

He listened carefully to the conversations of others, and even wrote down every word, but there was no fluctuation in his heart.

It wasn't until the next step to enter the nuclear reactor that Lin Chao's eyes flashed.

To enter the reactor, you first have to pass through two large iron doors that resemble giant safe doors.

In order to maintain a vacuum inside, the two iron doors can never be opened at the same time during normal operation.

Inside the two gates is the legendary nuclear reactor.

Lin Lan had an urge to activate Ren Zhen and let her take a look at this legendary horror thing, the pearl of human technology.

Things inside were different from what he had imagined.

After passing through the large iron gate, everything inside can be described as new, with a green painted iron spiral ladder and a yellow crane shining in the light.

There is no sense of heaviness at all.

Lin rann thought, you guys are a little old, how can I believe it was 50 years ago!

Croft leads visitors to a steel bridge with a panoramic view of the reactor.

The huge lights overhead were on, no sunlight was coming in, and under the tall steel and concrete buildings, the individual looked extremely small.

Croft remained serious and said, "Look closely, this is the closest place in the world to the reactor." ”

Everyone leaned over to look at it, and in the middle was a large cylindrical steel shell that was thick and heavy, tens of meters high.

The top was parallel to where the group was standing, and next to it was an object filled with dozens of slender metal rods.

The big steel shells are the reactors, and the metal rods are the nuclear fuel rods that haven't even been opened in plastic packaging.

"They're the ones that can produce earth-shattering energy," Croft said. ”

"That's amazing!"

"I seem to feel a terrifying force in the air. ”

"If they burn, they're going to be spectacular. ”

Lin Chao stared at those nuclear fuel rods, and his mouth was followed by others' sighs.

The tour guide immediately carried out science popularization again.

Nuclear fuel is in the form of uranium dioxide ceramic pellets sintered from a powder of a uranium mixture.

The porcelain core is a cylinder with a diameter of 1 cm and a height of 1 cm.

Hundreds of pellets are stacked on top of each other and packed into a slender zirconium alloy casing with a diameter of 1 cm, a length of about 4 meters, and a thickness of about 1 mm.

Because the nuclear fission reaction is like burning atoms, it is called a fuel rod.

Nuclear reactors also require an initial ignition rod, which uses one or more special fuel rods with a uranium concentration of 10-20% to be inserted into the middle of a low-concentration fuel rod to ignite the other fuel rods.

The principle is to use the higher frequency of neutron radiation produced by the high concentration of fuel rods to trigger a chain reaction of other fuel rods, much like igniting a coal stove with firewood.

"The radiation of nuclear fuel rods that you see now is very small, not as big as a mobile phone, only after putting the nuclear fuel rods into the reactor and ignition, nuclear fission produces heat energy, and the heat energy is converted into mechanical energy and then converted into electrical energy. ”

The tour guide was talking and noticed a tourist reaching out to the reactor.

She walked over and smiled, "Mr. Peter Huang, aren't you afraid of the reactor?"

It's a fantastic scene, and I've always felt that atomic neutrons can only be used by gods, and I was very excited to visit here.

Lin Chao was going to say this, but it was more difficult to say such a long sentence with his Filipino level.

He said excitedly.

"What a miracle!"

The tour guide understands his actions, and projects like nuclear power plants are indeed miracles in human history.

The tourists next to him echoed Lin Chao's statement.

"Human creativity is endless, it's great. ”

Someone else said, "It's terrible if there is an accident." ”

Lin retracted his hand, only six or seven meters away, the reactor and the nuclear fuel rod were in front of him.

According to the information, the nuclear fuel purchased by the S. Le nuclear power plant was later sold for 1 billion Philippine dollars.

Even this price is a loss, because intermediate storage costs a lot of money.

It is stated in the manual that the nuclear power plant is guaranteed to be free of any nuclear radiation and is covered by an insurance company.

Lin Lan looked at his left palm, and there was indeed nothing abnormal.

At a distance of a few meters, if the nuclear fuel rods below are real, there will be a reaction somehow.

Since the lack of response is obviously fake, it is a selling point.

"Everyone followed me forward, and there was the central control room of the nuclear power plant. "ゑ新ダ~(8)~1~Chinese 碲ωωω.. cΓ²ΠΌ

Lin ran followed the voice of the tour guide and looked over, and there was a circle of various consoles densely placed in the space of more than 100 square meters, like a documentary he had watched on video.

"Can these still be used, or are they just decorations?"

There are questions from tourists.

The tour guide said: "It is exactly the same as the original furnishings, just replace the old line, and you can work as usual." ”

"Wow, more than fifty years. ”

All the buttons in the room are marked with signs and covered with plastic film, and only the eye-catching telephone on the central console, which leads directly to the presidential palace, seems to tell the glory of the nuclear power plant in its past.

The guide came to the telephone.

"If you have a guest staying at the Power Station Hotel, you will receive a call from this telephone. ”

"I get it, that's what the president is treated in the propaganda ads. ”

"Really, what would you say, Miss Guide?"

"I guess it's a nice or good night to you, isn't it?"

The tour guide sells the guanzi and does not answer this question head-on.

The last place to visit is the turbine plant.

Of all the factories, this is the most open and spacious.

In the middle of the room, a group of orange turbines lie quietly.

With a sad look on his face, Croft said, "This is the only place in the entire nuclear power plant where you can hear the sound of machines running." ”

Because every other month, this unit will be started.

Every quarter, all the valves of the power station are turned again to ensure proper function.

Lin Lan saw the truth in his eyes and thought to himself that he was still looking forward to the day when the nuclear power plant would be restarted.

The tour guide's tone was filled with regret.

"The Guri nuclear power plant and the Sin Leu nuclear power plant in Boda are of the same type of nuclear power plant, which was completed a year earlier. Today, the Guri nuclear power plant has not only been put into operation for a long time, but has also used its own profits to further develop the second phase of the power station and more nuclear power projects, providing huge energy support for the economic development of the country. ”

Croft added: "Not only has the Saint Le nuclear power plant not been commissioned, but the 20 million yuan a year for maintenance has been stopped since five years ago. ”

Lian is quite old, and he can still eat.

Lin Ran thought of an idiom, silently looked at the huge turbine that once represented the crystallization of the highest technology, and decided to stay here for one night.

The environmental monitoring station, which is now a supporting facility for the nuclear power plant, has been converted into a hotel that can accommodate 50 guests at a time, and a room that can accommodate 5 people costs 2,000 Philippine dollars per night.

Compared to the 20 Philippine admission fee and the 200 Philippine explanation fee, the hotel fee is a bit high, and it is not a single room.
