Section 299

And Xiao Yi continued to give instructions: "It's time to inject liquid lithium."

Then, along the internal channel, liquid lithium began to enter the cavity and began to wrap up the inside.

The neutrons produced in the fusion reaction immediately reacted with the liquid lithium.

Tritium began to be generated!

"The self-sustaining rate of tritium began to rise!"

Everyone immediately noticed a data on the display.

0.01...0.05...0.1...

Until...

"0.99, 1.0!"

"The self-sustaining rate of tritium has reached 1.0!"

Everyone was excited again.

Tritium is a precious resource. It is obviously not enough to supply people with electricity by external extraction alone.

And now, they have successfully solved this problem!

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yi also smiled.

Finally, the conditions for nuclear fusion to continue to operate have been met.

Then, next, it is the most important moment.

Generate electricity!

"Switch the magnetic field mode to mode B! Start running the MHD power generation."

"Also, check the temperature of the first circuit!"

"The temperature of the first wall is 1200 degrees, the temperature of the first circuit is 950 degrees, and the steam parameters are normal." The leader of the cladding group reported quickly.

"Okay, guide the steam to the turbine!"

Two orders were issued in succession, and first, the MHD generator quickly started to work.

"The power of the MHD generator has reached 1000MW!"

As soon as this was said, the whole audience was shocked.

Everyone knows that the MHD generator has a high power generation efficiency, but it is still surprising that it is so fast.

But before everyone came back to their senses, another piece of news came again.

"The first group of steam turbine generators has reached 500MW!"

"The second group has also reached 500MW!"

"The third group..."

The news kept coming until finally, a new set of data appeared on the big screen.

Total power generation: 10GW!

"10GW!"

"Oh my God!"

"It really worked!"

Until this time, everyone in the control room could no longer sit still, and stood up, looking at the number in shock.

10GW!

The largest thermal power station in China is only 7GW.

And they easily reached 10GW, a terrifying order of magnitude.

Even equivalent to the total installed capacity of a medium-sized country.

10GW can generate 87.6 billion kWh of electricity per year, while Singapore's annual average electricity consumption is only about 60 billion kWh.

In other words, their power station alone can supply electricity to the entire Singapore.

However, 10GW has not reached the limit, and it is still rising until it finally reaches 15GW, and then it finally stops.

But obviously, as long as the temperature of the plasma continues to increase, the power generation can continue to rise.

However, 15GW is enough.

At least, it is enough to make the people in the control room dumbfounded.

"Start connecting to the grid!"

At this time, Xiao Yi's words reminded the people present.

They suddenly woke up from their dream and began to prepare for the grid connection.

After all, if they were not connected to the grid, it would be equivalent to charging 4166 degrees of electricity per second to Mother Earth.

Fortunately, they had already connected to the power grid.

Don't forget that the Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Institute is very close to the power supply station.

As this matter was arranged, the people present finally came back to their senses.

Everyone looked at each other and laughed heartily.

They succeeded!

Chapter 251 The Wheel of History Rolls on

In the control room, people were hugging and celebrating.

After such a long time, now they have successfully achieved this great goal.

"Success... It's really successful!"

Li Jiangan looked at the scene in front of him and murmured.

As the former director of the Plasma Institute, such a scene has appeared in his dreams countless times.

And...

He didn't dare to do it so big in his dreams.

This is 15GW, and it has not reached the upper limit at all. This power generation capacity can even continue to increase.

As for the scene in his dream, it would be a blessing to have 1GW.

Not to mention that at the beginning, he didn't even think that he would be able to see the day when nuclear fusion was realized in his life.

And now, what he once thought was impossible has now appeared in front of him.

Like a dream.

After a moment, his eyes gradually retracted and shifted to the figure of the young man standing in the front.

It was this young man who led them to success.

Recalling that at the beginning, he invited Xiao Yi to the Plasma Institute mainly to use Xiao Yi's name to apply for a sum of money for the purpose of building a new tokamak reactor. As a result, who would have thought that the new tokamak device was not built, but another brand-new nuclear fusion device was built.

By the way, nuclear fusion was also experimented.

Is this the turning of the gears of fate?

"Teacher, we succeeded! We succeeded!"

At this time, Zhao Zhanyou also ran over, grabbed Li Jiangan's arm and shook it excitedly.

"Alright, alright, if you keep shaking my arm, it's going to fall off."

Li Jiangan quickly pulled his arm out of Zhao Zhanyou's hand, rubbed it, and then said with relief: "Yes, we have succeeded. Nuclear fusion, hey, it's not that impossible."

He laughed again.

Zhao Zhanyou patted his chest and said: "See, it was me who thought of inviting Xiao Yi to our institute. Otherwise, God knows how long it would take for us to see this day."

Li Jiangan's eyes glared at him on the spot: "Bullshit, it was me who asked you to invite Xiao Yi, how could it be what you thought?"

Zhao Zhanyou: "Isn't that right? It was me who proposed it!"

"You bastard, you deserve a beating!"

After that, Li Jiangan taught Zhao Zhanyou a lesson again.

In short, the scene was a cheerful atmosphere, and everyone's heart was filled with excitement.

Probably, the only quiet person was Xiao Yi standing in the front.

Different from the people around who had already started celebrating.

At this time, his eyes were still focused on every data on the big screen.

Every data was basically the same as what he had simulated.

Including the most important data on the integrity of the first wall material.

The plasma temperature had been maintained at more than 100 million degrees for more than 1,000 seconds, but the integrity of the first wall material was still 100%, without any decrease.
