Chapter 237 The Impact of Laser Fusion
Regarding the innovative breakthrough of Konni's lens and the NIF device that can be used for ignition, the first thing to be blown away is the great beauty of the domestic spirit.
"This is a civilized country."
"This is the kingdom of justice."
"..."
I have never seen this group of guys jump out and speak out before the beautiful invasion of other countries. At this time, one mouth is righteous, one mouth is civilized, and one mouth is powerful.
You can't compete with others if you are careless, so why not surrender as soon as possible and follow them to drink some soup and enjoy themselves.
In fact, my country's application level in the field of laser is not bad, and there have been some related reports of breakthroughs in the past.
At this time, I was so excited by these beautiful and energetic people that they all turned over.
He pointed at the headlines of these breakthrough reports and ridiculed them wildly.
"So? So what?"
"The frog in the well!"
"They won't take you to play at all!"
"Awaken!"
"..."
It has to be said that this group of cheerful guys jumping up and down can really affect morale sometimes. An ignition device with an energy generation rate of less than 1%, and a thing that takes several hours to cool down once it is lit, is blown away and instantly activated. It’s like ushering in innovation.
In fact, this is just relying on clickbait to bully others who are less educated.
Anyway, not many people will understand it deeply, as long as it is ideologically proven to have positive gains! Let the remote livestock products do the rest!
In fact, the current two mainstream directions of controllable nuclear fusion are very simple and clear.
The current domestic mainstream tokamak devices rely on strong magnetic field constraints to ensure reactions and block that terrible high temperature. The disadvantage is that strong magnetic fields usually require the use of low-temperature superconductors and powerful electricity. The advantage is sustainability. There can be a steady stream of responses.
Theoretically, as long as the tokamak device operates for a long enough time, it can achieve positive gain. For example, the current international controllable nuclear fusion project ITER is preparing to use a tokamak device to achieve the goal. The goal is to achieve energy conversion within 20 to 30 years. Q reaches above 10 or even higher.
So usually breakthrough reports are about how many seconds it can last.
The other is an ignition device like NIF. In fact, to put it bluntly, NIF is to make a mini hydrogen bomb, but the orthodox hydrogen bomb is detonated by an atomic bomb, while the NIF mini hydrogen bomb is made into a capsule, and then high-energy lasers are fired from all directions at the same time to detonate.
But here, for the sake of ideological and public opinion offensive, coupled with a little bit of funding fraud, the announcement of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory adopted a rather silent concept change.
That is, the input and output of energy are only counted during the reaction process, that is, the laser energy of 1 is replaced by the neutron energy of 1.5.
The consumption when the machine is running is not mentioned at all.
In fact, if you carefully read the information they publish, you will know that in fact, including the use of instruments, the final neutron energy produced is less than one percent of the consumption.
Just turning on the instrument to create the laser consumes more than a hundred times the energy ultimately generated!
This doesn't even include the losses in the power generation process and the consumption of making that small capsule.
If you take it all into account, it can only be described as horrific.
And the cooling time after ignition lasts for several hours.
Even how things like neutron energy should be used and what the utilization rate will be is a big question mark.
Even excluding the utilization rate, when it comes to 100% conversion, to meet the energy output of an ordinary power plant, at least ten reactions per second, millions of reactions a day are required.
Of course, with the improvement of laser level and the continuous upgrading and modification of equipment, the proportion can still be improved to some extent. After all, such a big 'victory' has been announced to the outside world, and money will definitely continue to be invested. The funding problem is temporarily alleviated. .
But if they follow their algorithm, isn’t the tokamak device actually more advanced? The magnetic field I use to constrain the reaction doesn't participate in the reaction, right?
Theoretically, if the magnetic field limitation is not considered after the tokamak device is ignited, subsequent reactions can be achieved by continuing to add reactants. Will there be a positive gain sooner or later? Or sustainable?
But we can’t ‘put aside the facts’ and just talk about theory.
In fact, both the tokamak device and the NIF ignition device are too immature at present. Instead of waiting for nuclear fusion to be commercialized, let's wait until controllable nuclear fusion achieves a true "positive gain" and the energy produced is converted reasonably. It will take at least several decades of research to achieve greater than the input energy.
I just have to say that in terms of ideological output and long-range animal husbandry, Da Mei's ability is really good. However, they are not lying. They just changed the concept secretly, and the effect is absolutely lethal. of.
Even if they just throw out the satellite now and say that they can ignite it after the lens arrives and the modification design is completed, it still makes too many people on the Internet excited.
Many people are excited because mankind is about to control nuclear fusion, and endless clean energy is waiting for us in the future. This is completely understandable.
But some of the well-known exciting directions feel quite speechless.
This kind of technology must be mastered by the ‘justice side’ and the ‘civilized side’.
Maybe even their masters don't know how awesome they are.
This kind of suppression of morale rarely makes the atmosphere on the Internet a little depressed, allowing them to celebrate, ridicule, and be weird.
It is already a success to dampen enthusiasm and at the same time plunge the country into self-doubt, low self-esteem and even self-hatred.
It's best to stop catching up if you find you can never catch up.
In the end, Wang Yi sent a tweet on Weibo
"This hasn't even ignited yet. Don't be so excited yet. But according to the principle, it is just a pure calculation of the energy input and output. It can definitely achieve a positive gain. This is indeed a breakthrough. For example, the positive gain of the hydrogen bomb Is it big? This thing can be regarded as a small hydrogen bomb.”
Wang Yi first published a relatively objective statement expressing his approval, but then listed a series of mathematical formulas to estimate the actual energy consumption of this experiment compared with the final energy generated.
"...So, without considering the conversion of power generation consumption, the consumption of making instruments, and the consumption of making projectiles, the power consumed is probably hundreds of times the final energy generated. It is still early to achieve true positive gain. Very likely, it is a way to defraud funds, and then bring about a wave of ideological output. In fact, we have already achieved positive gain in nuclear fusion, and hydrogen bombs can do it~'Smiley Face'.
"Then can I propose a new device, which is to continuously detonate small hydrogen bombs in the desert. We can find ways to absorb and transform the energy of the explosion, and achieve positive gain. For example, we can build a row of large windmills from a long distance, and we can directly generate electricity. Haha, just kidding, don’t take it seriously.”
Wang Yi is currently recognized as the number one person in mathematics in the world, the leader of artificial intelligence algorithms, and the father of the Red Queen.
The credibility of what he said is still here. Many netizens who originally felt disappointed immediately cheered up after seeing it.
Is love such a positive energy gain?
Isn’t this a lie?
Just counting the power consumed when the instrument is started, it consumes more than a hundred times. Are you telling me that this thing has a positive gain?
"What can neutrons be? You can't even boil water..."
"I'll go! It scared me! I thought they could really do it!"
"A hundred times, what a shame! How dare they say that in this title?"
"How can you be scary if you don't say that?"
"How can you defraud funds if you don't say so?"
"If you don't say so, where did you get the material from?"
"At first I felt really uncomfortable seeing them acting strangely. I never imagined that they were like this."
"Good guy, looking at what the public officials are saying, I feel like we are going to build a power plant soon."
"It's time to build a power plant to meet the consumption of their experiments."
"Scare me to death..."
I felt aggrieved at the pressure at first, but after being educated by Wang Yi, I immediately felt much better.
Continuously exporting ideology and taming the spirit to make people in third world countries accept their fate and accept that they cannot earn money with high added value. This is what they have been doing.
GPS chips originally cost 2,000 pieces each, but after the emergence of Beidou, they now cost 6 pieces each.
What kind of 100% huge profits can make capital take risks?
This...
It seems to be a kind of beautification...
