Chapter 371 After All, He Is a Man Who Is Good at Creating Miracles

As Xu Chuan's instructions were issued.

The staff in each group of control rooms became busy again.

Compared with the previous power-on operation test of the external steady-state magnetic field, it is much more difficult to introduce helium-3 gas into the Dawn Fusion Device for heating operation.

The first thing to adjust is the superconducting coil that provides a strong magnetic field outside.

For a controlled nuclear fusion experimental reactor, in addition to the superconducting coil used to provide a steady-state magnetic field for basic control, there are also control coils that adjust the magnetic field intensity range in the chamber in real time.

After all, the ultra-high temperature and high pressure plasma flowing in the chamber will not move according to your ideas and arranged routes every minute and every second.

Every collision and fusion of deuterium and tritium atoms will generate huge energy, which will disrupt the trend of the entire plasma flow.

Just like the sun, although the fusion reaction only occurs in its core, the outer layer will still have powerful flares, prominences and solar wind activities.

These are the trace ions that overflow from the intense fusion reaction in the core area. Although for the sun, these active and scattered particles are not even a grain of sand on the beach, they can cause changes in the ecological environment of the earth 150 million kilometers away.

The same is true for the high-temperature plasma in the chamber of the controlled nuclear fusion reactor. Although the overflow is also a small amount or even a trace amount compared to the total amount, this trace amount of plasma can cause great damage and damage to the first wall and the reactor.

So the importance of fine-tuning and controlling the model is realized here.

With the issuance of Xu Chuan's instructions, the steady-state magnetic field and the micro-controlled magnetic field began to work at the same time. Under the command of the supercomputing center deployed in the park, the magnetic field in the reactor chamber of the Dawn Fusion Device formed a channel for the plasma fluid to run.

After confirming that the field was formed and stable, Xu Chuan calmly opened his mouth and issued a new instruction.

"Inject helium-3 raw material!"

"Received!"

With the reply of the command, the raw material delivery pipeline connected to the Dawn Device opened the valve, and under the control of the computer, a trace amount of helium-3 was accurately injected into the chamber.

Compared to the volume of the entire reactor chamber, these helium-3 are not even a drop in the bucket, but for testing, they are enough.

These helium-3 are scattered in the reactor chamber, and with the adjustment of the ICRF heating antenna, they are transformed into a plasma state, and are quickly controlled in a fixed orbit by the confinement magnetic field generated by the external superconducting coil.

Although the situation inside the Dawnbreak fusion device cannot be seen by the naked eye, the detectors deployed outside can completely collect the electromagnetic waves emitted by the plasma helium-3.

After being processed by the supercomputing center, the image mapped on the central screen of the main control room is like a light blue Milky Way emitting a faint light in the night.

The high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees creates this beautiful picture.

However, in fact, this is the most terrifying energy on earth.

After all, even the core of the sun is only 15 million degrees Celsius.

In contrast, the difficulties that humans have to overcome to achieve controlled nuclear fusion and conquer the high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees and make it useful to humans are far more difficult than nature.

As the light blue Milky Way flows in the chamber, everyone in the main control room stares at the screen.

Looking at this extremely beautiful image, Peng Hongxi's eyes are a little red.

No one knows better than him how difficult it is to achieve this result.

On the side, Zhao Hongzhi, the team leader who went to the Planck Plasma Research Institute for training, was full of excitement and excitement, his lips were trembling slightly, and he muttered in a barely audible voice that others could not hear.

Looking at the light blue Milky Way running stably in the chamber of the Dawn fusion reactor, Xu Chuan also showed a bright smile on his face.

That's right!

He succeeded!

Although this is only a result of acceptance, although it is quite short-lived, it is still great and dazzling.

The high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting material, the numerical control model of plasma turbulence, and the previous results of the operation of the Dawn fusion device were most perfectly interpreted at this moment.

With the closure of the ICRF heating antenna, the current supply of the superconducting coil stopped, and the plasma temperature in the reactor chamber also dropped rapidly.

When the entire Dawn Fusion Device completely stopped running, the suppressed cheers in the main control room also broke out.

Some old people who have been working in the field of controlled nuclear fusion for many years even had red eyes.

Although this is only a phased success, it has successfully brought the Qixia controlled nuclear fusion project into the formal experimental stage, and also brought a glimmer of new dawn and hope.

No matter what the future holds, at this moment, its prospects are undoubtedly far-reaching and bright.

Just like the pale blue Milky Way, success flickers in the hearts of everyone present.

The acceptance experiment was perfectly successful, and Xu Chuan held a celebration banquet in Jinling Hotel, not only to celebrate, but also to reward everyone for their unremitting efforts over the past year.

Not only these researchers and engineers, but also those workers who stick to the construction site whether it is hot summer or ice and snow.

Of course, the latter's reward is not to participate in the celebration banquet, but a cash reward after the project is completed.

Compared with a celebration banquet and spiritual encouragement, those busy workers on the construction site need more material rewards.

As the celebration banquet progressed, Xu Chuan was also forced to drink a lot of wine.

Although he was still a long way from being drunk, he was indeed very happy today compared to the past when he never drank alcohol.

Unlike his previous life, in this life, the dream of controlled nuclear fusion truly set sail in his hands and headed for the unknown sea.

No one knew whether there would be a storm in the future, but what he could do was to try his best to control this mothership, go through the wind and rain, and greet the colorful clouds at dawn.

With the stimulation of alcohol and the cheerful atmosphere of the celebration banquet, Xu Chuan stood in the center of the crowd and gathered everyone's attention, and announced loudly:

"October 1st! That is, one and a half months later, our Dawn will start the first real ignition operation experiment. Do you have the confidence to celebrate the birthday of the motherland with a perfect and even world record-breaking experimental result!"

"Yes!"

"No problem!"

"Definitely!"

Before the words fell, the celebration hall was drowned by deafening affirmative answers.

In the crowd, Peng Hongxi looked at the high-spirited and energetic crowd, and the young man surrounded by the crowd, and smiled dumbly.

This was probably the first time he saw the man in front of him so high-spirited and passionate, even a little arrogant and a little disqualified, although it might be just the most common speech for other people, and it was nothing.

But for the man in front of him, it was really rare.

After all, in the past, the calmness he showed would even make people ignore his age involuntarily.

Moreover, in one and a half months, using a newly purchased device, to break the operating time record of a controlled nuclear fusion reactor.

To be honest, when it comes from other people's mouths, it sounds like bragging and boasting.

But for this person, it might really be possible.

After all, he himself is a person who is good at creating miracles.
