Chapter 563: The Sun in a Bottle
Of course, the energy conversion rate of the first nuclear fusion reactor is only 15%, which is still under ideal conditions. When it really works, it is estimated that it can only have a conversion rate of 10%.
That is 700,000 tons of gasoline.
These gasolines can fill the Sea Giant, the largest oil tanker of mankind, and can fill the fuel tank of the Silence more than a thousand times, enough for the Silence to be scrapped, without even scum left.
This is only the effect of one ton of nuclear fusion fuel.
With the continuous advancement of technology in the future and the continuous improvement of energy utilization efficiency, one kilogram of nuclear fuel is enough to use the Silence for a whole year.
"Boss, is this a nuclear reactor?" The colonel's glasses widened again, "How is that possible?"
The nuclear reactor on the aircraft carrier is also a giant, much bigger than this one.
"This kind of utilization efficiency is even better than a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier?! Then our ship is already nuclear-powered?"
Nan Ming shrugged. Theoretically speaking, the energy released by nuclear fusion is more than a hundred times that of nuclear fission. Of course, this is not the same.
Such a small nuclear reactor has a maximum power of 400,000 kilowatts. If it is running at full power, it is more than enough to support the operation of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleet.
"Really? Can this effect really be achieved?" Barton stared blankly, listening to the voices outside, and hearing what Nan Ming said, Barton was stunned.
It's no wonder that such a small thing can do it!
"I think, ahem, the boss is really naive." After all, Turkey is a master of physics, and he is too clear about the difficulties of nuclear fusion. "This device of the boss has no ignition device, no restraint device, only one Simple reaction chamber, and a magnetohydrogen generator, I don't think this is a nuclear fusion reactor...it's more like a hydrogen bomb..."
"H-bomb?" Barton was terrified, "Is the boss a terrorist?"
"I heard that the Philippines recently offended the country of the boss. The boss probably intends to blow up the entire Manila..." Turkey silently estimated how powerful the device would be if it exploded.
As a result, half of Manila will be affected, and the tsunami generated by the explosion will destroy countless cities near Manila, and even spread to China and the Sea of Japan.
"Oh, god!" Barton was about to cry, "So the boss is a terrorist, I should call my family..."
The two were chattering inside, Nan Ming saw them dawdling and not working, and said with a straight face: "Hurry up and work."
What nonsense? A hydrogen bomb requires an instant temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees, and it must be detonated by a nuclear bomb, so it is called a thermonuclear weapon, because other methods cannot create the environment required for a hydrogen bomb explosion. There was a nuclear explosion, he was scaring Patton right now.
"Yes, sir!" Regardless of whether you are afraid or not, as long as the boss speaks, the two of you will not dare to disobey, so hurry up and get to work.
"Being killed by a nuclear explosion shouldn't be painful." Patton still couldn't forget what Turkey said just now.
"probably not."
"Oh, thank God."
"shut up!"
"Yes, sir!"
Both Barton and Turkey were wearing protective clothing and carefully operating in accordance with the operating procedures.
The first is to add a lithium target and inject deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen, both of which have no radiation, are only flammable and explosive, and are not very dangerous.
The most important step has finally come, that is to inject tritium!
In fact, current nuclear bombs usually use lithium deuteride, because it is a stable solid isotope, which can be stored conveniently and will not fail due to a long time. The tritium needed for fission is the neutron impact produced by the nuclear explosion. produced by deuterium.
But Nanming's device is different.
50 grams of tritium is electrolyzed into hydrogen from super-heavy water, and then its container is injected into the nuclear reactor, and the rest is controlled by the control system of the nuclear reactor.
"Boss, please get out of here quickly, we will definitely detonate it..." Barton said to Nan Ming with tears, "There is a helicopter on the deck, you must be alive..."
If they are really going to be terrorists, let them die. Boss is such a terrifying person, he doesn't want to be scared back to life by the boss after he dies and enters heaven!
Oh God, please redeem me! I'm guilty! Please forgive my sins...
"Detonate your head!" Nan Ming gave Turkey a white look, opened the door and walked in. If Barton knew the truth, he would definitely shoot Turkey to pieces.
He entered a series of manipulation codes, and then said to Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, prepare to light the fire."
"Master, it's dangerous, it's too dangerous!" The bomb stood in front of Nan Ming, and the bomb also believed Turkey's words. Turkey's eyes were straightened, and he had already thought of his fate after the truth came out...
Nan Ming was moved and funny, and Barton over there had already started to compare scissorhands.
"What are you doing?" Xu Yafei asked him suspiciously.
"Sir, I heard that if the nuclear bomb explodes, people will be completely vaporized, leaving only a black shadow. I think the final pose can be more handsome." Barton said, "It's an honor to take a photo with you, sir!"
Then he made a gesture to wrap his arms around Xu Yafei's shoulders, really planning to take a photo with Xu Yafei.
"It's a good idea." Xu Yafei nodded, and said, "However, we are at the center of the nuclear explosion, and the temperature can reach hundreds of millions of degrees in an instant, and the entire Silence will be vaporized, so you can't leave anything behind."
"Oh, god!" Barton began to make the sign of the cross again.
According to the novels and movies, at this moment, various visions should be born, the situation should change suddenly, the color of the world should change, there should be dancing in the sky, and dragons should descend into the world.
However, there was nothing in this moment, like every morning before.
Under the protection of Cheng Ning, Nan's father, Nan's mother, Zhang Feilin and others are visiting the scenic spots in Manila. Senator Sanchez has prepared a detailed document with a heartache on his face, and is rushing to the port. He wants to find Nanming to make an apology. Gift.
In a small bar, Chen Qiming was bragging about what he saw last night.
Wen Ji, who was far away in the sky, and Hu Zhuofei, who was so frightened, packed up everything and said that he was going to leave China. He couldn't stay any longer. On the ground, weeping loudly.
Qingyang, Qingzhong Yang, who just came back from the capital, has been drinking too much recently, his waist has grown a lot, and he is exercising. After receiving the towel handed over by the guard, he looked up at the sun, squinted his eyes and thought: "Xiaoming, that bear The child has been a little too quiet recently?"
On the street, there are bustling crowds. The Spring Festival holiday has just passed, and the busy people are walking on the street again.
As always, as always, as always.
At such an ordinary moment, Nanming issued an order, and Xiaobai entered a set of passwords that were more complicated than Nanming's, unlocking and activating the control system.
"The final inspection, the lithium target insertion is completed, the deuterium gas injection is completed, the power is reduced to two megawatts, and the minimum power output." Xiaobai reported the progress in an orderly manner, "Start injecting tritium!"
Nan Ming narrowed his eyes, feeling this moment.
At that moment, his thoughts turned him into a tritium atom.
With a slight "hiss", 20 grams of tritium was injected into the reaction chamber.
A tritium atom and a deuterium atom met at that moment, and with a bang, a helium nucleus was produced, all electrons were thrown out, and a neutron was released at the same time.
In the next second, more tritium and deuterium meet, bang bang bang bang bang bang bang...
Thoughts are only for a moment, and all of this actually happened in a tiny field that is completely invisible, but at that moment, countless fusion reactions occurred at the same time, and everyone present only made a bang, which was very slight, but it made people feel uncomfortable. His heart skipped a beat.
With a "buzz", the sound of electric current sounded, and then all the lights in the ship suddenly brightened.
Controllable, slow fusion is proceeding smoothly, and the output current flows through all the lines in the entire cabin. Since the Silence was built, there has never been such a surging current flowing through it, if this is not a warship built by Lao Maozi , very solid, I am afraid that the circuit has been burned at this moment.
"Success...success?" Turkey felt that his world view was about to be subverted.
"No, no explosion, boss, we are still alive!" Barton yelled, "Great, we are not terrorists! God, thank you for your salvation..."
Xu Yafei felt that his face was wet, and he reached out to touch it, his face was full of tears.
Witnessed the greatest moment in the history of human science and technology, how could he not shed tears?
At this moment, human beings put the power of the sun into a bottle!
This is a sun in a bottle! (To be continued.)
