Chapter 386 Powerful Power Plant
“Okay, Mr. Ning, let’s edit the video now and contact these TV stations and reporters.”
Produce a car that can highlight the performance of nuclear fusion cars It is not difficult to make a video. This is something that many self-media personnel can accomplish, not to mention the professional team of Xingchen Technology.
In less than an hour, the relevant staff edited a video of several minutes. Although this video is not long, it well reflects the various aspects of the nuclear fusion car. Excellent performance.
After watching the video once, Ning Chen was very satisfied with the effect of the video. He did not even ask for any modifications, so he nodded to indicate that the video could be released.
On the other hand, after learning that Xingchen Technology's nuclear fusion car had completed testing, major TV stations, reporters, and online self-media were very excited and couldn't wait to publish the news.
For a time, discussions about nuclear fusion cars spread all over the Internet, which made many people feel that a new technological era was coming.
“Who dares to believe that a car can reach a speed of one thousand kilometers per hour? Even an F1 racing car can’t reach one-third of this speed!”
“This nuclear fusion power device is really terrifying. It can actually make a car reach the speed of an airplane. Moreover, the resources of nuclear fusion are almost inexhaustible. This car There is no need to charge or refuel, and it can be used until it is scrapped. "When this car comes on the market, no matter how much it sells for, I will definitely go back and buy one!" Cars, other luxury cars are no longer good! ”
Of course, some people are doubtful about the safety of this nuclear fusion car, especially when it is driving on the road, whether it will pose a great threat to surrounding cars and pedestrians.
After learning that this was just an experimental product that would not be commercialized, they felt a lot more relieved.
…………
Yanjing, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
“This... is really an incredible research. I couldn’t even imagine such a car before.”
After seeing the video of the nuclear fusion car released by Xingchen Technology, Yue Jiafeng couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, Yue Jiafeng was a little lucky that they were able to resolutely pass Xingchen Technology's application to develop a controllable fusion car, and only then could they see the emergence of such powerful technology.
However, Yue Jiafeng also knew that this was far from the end of Ning Chen and Xingchen’s technological research.
Thinking of this, Yue Jiafeng contacted Ning Chen and asked Ning Chen about his future views on this research.
After receiving the message from Yue Jiafeng, Ning Chen immediately called Yue Jiafeng back.
"Academician Ning, aren't you busy now? Why did you call back so quickly?"
"Haha, whether you are busy or not, I will call you back as soon as possible, Academician Yue. I am here, Yue Academicians are also my special concern.”
Recalling his experience of responding to Ning Chen immediately, Yue Jiafeng couldn’t help but laugh.
"Yes, whether you are busy or not depends on what it is. Academician Ning, I just watched the video released by Xingchen Technology, and I am really shocked by this nuclear fusion car!"< br>
"Well, this test was very successful, and many tests under extreme conditions were successfully passed. Using nuclear fusion power devices on some vehicles is indeed a direction that can be tried..."
After the two chatted about the problems of this nuclear fusion experiment, Yue Jiafeng asked some deeper questions about this research direction.
“Academician Ning, I wonder what your thoughts are on this technology next?”
Faced with Yue Jiafeng’s question, Ning Chen had no intention of hiding anything and told the truth truthfully. Yue Jiafeng explained:
"Academician Yue, to be honest, I hope to use this technology in the field of aerospace in the future. Of course, this goal is not that easy to achieve. In the future, I hope to be able to Transition on trains and airplanes, and then try on spacecraft..."
After listening to Ning Chen's explanation, Yue Jiafeng also felt that Ning Chen's ideas were indeed very forward-looking.
"Academician Ning, all of us at the Chinese Academy of Sciences are very supportive of Xingchen Technology's development of controllable nuclear fusion technology. Once the technology of controllable nuclear fusion matures, mankind will enter a new era of science and technology, and our lives will become completely different. It’s the same..."
Yue Jiafeng seemed a little excited. He only hoped that in his lifetime, he could see that nuclear fusion technology had really developed to a very mature level.
After confirming the other party's inner thoughts, communication between the two parties becomes much easier.
"Academician Ning, let's proceed according to your ideas. I will recommend your suggestions to relevant departments and hope that research on these technologies can be carried out as soon as possible."
Ning Chen's response to the Yue family Feng's support is still very important. Although Xingchen Technology now has very strong technological strength and very rich assets, after all, Xingchen Technology is only a private enterprise, and many things still cannot be decided by itself.
Yue Jiafeng has more convenient conditions and can help Ning Chen solve some difficult problems.
After finishing the call with Ning Chen, Yue Jiafeng conveyed Ning Chen’s ideas internally, explaining the advantages and forward-looking nature of these ideas.
Although everyone knows that the development of controllable nuclear fusion technology will face some risks, we also know that this is an inevitable trend in future energy development.
Coupled with the teams of Ningchen and Xingchen Technology, they have always had very good guarantees for the safety of technology research and development, and can minimize the risk of equipment.
After everyone’s discussion, most people still supported the continued development of this technology, which also allowed Ning Chen and Yue Jiafeng’s proposals to be approved.
Yue Jiafeng informed Ning Chen of the news immediately, so that Ning Chen could start preparing related research.
"Academician Ning, we have approved this application internally. In the future, we will start with high-speed rail and aircraft to carry controllable nuclear fusion energy. You can decide the specific sequence yourself. Our biggest request It is to ensure the safety of the project, and there are no rigid requirements for other things..."
Hearing what Yue Jiafeng conveyed, Ning Chen also seemed very excited, because this meant that he had room to perform. own ability.
“Great, thank you, Academician Yue!”
“Hey, what’s the point of thanking you? This is our common goal. We also have to thank Academician Ning and Xingchen As for the experts in science and technology, it is precisely because of your presence that we in Xia State can continue to climb to the top of new technologies..." With Yue Jiafeng's promise, Ning Chen no longer worries about anything and can go with peace of mind. Technical issues have been dealt with.
As for the issue of research and development order, Ning Chen definitely wants to start with trains first. After all, the fault tolerance rate of land transportation is also higher. Even if there are some problems with energy, under normal circumstances, There will be no consequences.
But air transportation is different. Once there is a problem with the energy supply, the consequences will be devastating.
In fact, Ning Chen already has some ideas about the controllable nuclear fusion technology carried on the train, and the difficulty of realizing this technology is not as difficult as imagined.
The power a train needs to provide is many times greater than that of a car, but there is also plenty of space on the train to install a controllable nuclear fusion power device.
However, in order to allow the train equipped with a nuclear fusion power device to reach a faster speed, Ning Chen also needs to redesign the structure of the train, not just a simple design of the nuclear fusion power device.
With the help of Yue Jiafeng, Xingchen Technology contacted the Xiaguo Railway Department and exchanged information about the nuclear fusion train.
People in the railway department are also very interested in this project, because this project can greatly increase the upper limit of rail train speed, allowing people to achieve a faster transportation experience.
"Academician Ning, I wonder what you think about this new type of train equipped with nuclear fusion power device?"
Because some issues have not been finalized, Ning Chen has not yet decided No specific design plan has been made, but Ning Chen already has a general idea in his mind.
"My idea is to use our current high-speed rail as the basic template framework, combined with the characteristics of nuclear fusion power devices, to re-plan and design the entire train. Our ultimate goal is to be able to design a train with a speed of over a thousand kilometers per hour. Trains greatly facilitate people's transportation..."
Hearing Ning Chen's ideas, the leaders of the railway department were also very happy.
Once the goal mentioned by Ning Chen can be achieved, the speed of high-speed rail will be three times that of the previous one, and it will even be far more convenient than airplanes.
Although airplanes are the fastest means of transportation for people to travel, due to various cumbersome procedures, a lot of time is wasted outside the flight process.
Furthermore, aircraft flying has very high requirements on weather conditions. Once there are some problems with the weather, flights will be canceled.
In contrast, the conditions for train operation are much less restrictive. As long as the weather conditions are not particularly bad, trains can operate normally.
If such technology can really be realized, then traveling between major cities will become a very convenient thing.
"Okay, Academician Ning, let's conduct research and development according to your ideas. Our railway department will do its best to support Xingchen Technology. We all hope to see such technology emerge as soon as possible."
Ning Chen was not polite and tried to ask the railway department for some relevant internal technical information. The other party also provided it to Xingchen Technology as promised.
With these internal technical information, Xingchen Technology can save a lot of trouble when it develops nuclear fusion power trains.
"As expected... It seems that all my previous speculations are basically correct."
After reading these internal technical information, Ning Chen couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, the reason why Ning Chen sought these technologies from the railway department was not because he was completely ignorant of these technologies, but more to verify whether his guess was correct.
After being transformed by biocomputer technology, Ning Chen's brain has more powerful analysis and modeling capabilities. Sometimes, as long as you see a technology with your own eyes, you can basically analyze the principles of the technology.
This made Ning Chen have some guesses about all the listed technologies. Fortunately, Ning Chen's guesses were indeed correct.
In this case, many of Ning Chen's previous ideas can be directly added to the design.
…………
In the following time, Ning Chen and other technical experts from Xingchen Technology, as well as experts from the Ministry of Railways, began the design work of the new nuclear fusion train .
Although many of the ideas were proposed by Ning Chen, many of the work would not have progressed so smoothly without the help of other experts.
After many times of design, modification, and negotiation, we finally came up with the final ideal plan.
At first glance, this plan looks a bit like Xia Guo’s previous high-speed rail design plan, but if you look closely, you will find many differences.
In order to accommodate a large nuclear fusion power device, the first two carriages of the train will not have any passengers, but only the train driver and various other equipment.
To a certain extent, this will reduce the passenger carrying efficiency of the train, but it is also a choice that must be made.
At the same time, because of the new power unit, the entire train can have more carriages, which is superior to normal high-speed rail.
On the other hand, Ning Chen and others also made a lot of modifications to the design of the front of the car.
To a large extent, this comes from the aerodynamic technology of Xingchen Technology, which can design the best aerodynamic solution based on known information.
With the help of this technology, trains can reduce air resistance by about ten percent.
This number is very astonishing, because the previous front design already used the most advanced technology at the time. Many people did not expect that this design could have such a large room for improvement.
In addition, Ning Chen and others have also devoted a lot of energy to the research on nuclear fusion power devices.
Although the previous project team has done a lot of work on safety issues, after all, the previous projects either had no risk of collision or were experimental studies.
But this time, the nuclear fusion train is really going to be operated commercially. Even if the probability of collision is very low, we must do our best to ensure relevant guarantees.
For this reason, Ning Chen and others deliberately added a new protective layer outside the nuclear fusion power device. The material used in this protective layer has a very strong hardness, which is different from the previous "nano silk thread". “The materials have a very close relationship.
