Chapter 371 After all, he is a person who is good at creating miracles

As Xu Chuan's order was issued.

The staff in each group's control room became busy again.

Compared with the previous power-on operation to test 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 make adjustments is the superconducting coil that provides a strong magnetic field externally.

For a controllable 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 every fusion of deuterium and tritium atoms will produce huge amounts of energy, which will disrupt the flow of the entire plasma.

Just like the sun, although fusion reactions only occur in its core, there are still powerful flares, prominences, solar wind and other activities in the outer layer.

These are trace amounts of ions overflowing from the intense fusion reaction in the core region. Although to the sun, these particles scattered by activity are not even a grain of sand on the beach, but they can cause ions that are 150 million distant away. Changes in the earth’s ecological environment kilometers away.

The same goes for the high-temperature plasma in the controllable nuclear fusion reactor chamber. Although it overflows only a small amount or even a trace amount compared to the total amount, this trace amount of plasma can cause great damage to the first wall and the reactor. Destruction and damage.

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

As Xu Chuan's order was issued, the steady-state magnetic field and the micro-controlled magnetic field came into effect at the same time. Under the command of the supercomputing center deployed in the park, the magnetic field in the reactor chamber of the Daybreak Fusion Device formed a channel for the plasma fluid to run. .

After confirming that the field was formed and stable, Xu Chuan calmly issued new instructions.

"Inject helium three raw materials!"

"Received!"

Following the reply to 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 with the volume of the entire reactor chamber, these three heliums are less than a drop in the bucket, but for testing, it is enough.

These helium particles are dispersed in the reactor chamber and converted into a plasma state as the ICRF heating antenna is adjusted, and are quickly controlled in a fixed orbit by the confinement magnetic field generated by the external superconducting coil.

Although the conditions inside the Daybreak Fusion Device cannot be seen with the naked eye, the detectors deployed outside can completely collect the electromagnetic waves emitted by the ionized helium-3.

After image processing by the supercomputing center, the image reflected on the central screen of the main control room looked like a light blue Milky Way emitting a faint light in the night.

The high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees created this wonderful 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, if humans want to achieve controllable nuclear fusion, conquer the hundreds of millions of degrees of high temperature, and make it available for human use, the hardships they have to overcome are far more difficult than nature.

With the light blue Milky Way flowing in the chamber, everyone in the main control room was staring at the screen.

Looking at this extremely beautiful image, Peng Hongxi's eyes turned red.

No one knows better than him how hard this achievement is.

On the side, Zhao Hongzhi, the team leader who went to the Planck Institute for Training, was full of excitement and excitement, his lips were trembling slightly, and he was mumbling words in an inaudible voice that others could not hear.

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

That’s right!

He succeeded!

Although this is only a side result of acceptance, although it is quite short-lived, it is still great and dazzling. The past achievements of high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting materials, numerical control models of plasma turbulence, and the operation of the Dawn Fusion Device were most perfectly interpreted at this moment.

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

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

Some old people who have been working in the field of controllable nuclear fusion all year round even have red eyes.

Although this was only a phased success, it successfully brought the Qixia controllable 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 great and bright.

Just like the light blue Milky Way, success flashed in the hearts of everyone present.

The acceptance experiment was a perfect success. Xu Chuan held a celebration banquet in the Jinling Hotel. It was not only a celebration, but also a reward for everyone's unremitting efforts over the past year.

Not only these researchers and engineers, but also the workers who stick to the construction site no matter it is hot summer or ice and snow.

Of course, the reward for the latter is not participation in the celebration banquet, but a cash reward after the project is completed.

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

As the celebration banquet progressed, Xu Chuan was also poured a lot of wine.

Although he was still a long way from being drunk, he was indeed very happy today compared to his previous abstinence from alcohol.

Different from the previous life, in this life, the dream of controllable nuclear fusion truly set sail in his hands, sailing towards the unknown sea.

No one knows whether there will be storms in the future, but what he can do is try his best to control the mothership, go through the wind and rain, and meet the colorful clouds at dawn.

With the stimulation of alcohol and the cheerful atmosphere of the celebration party, Xu Chuan stood in the center of the crowd, 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 the results of a perfect or even world-record-breaking experiment!"

"Yes!"

"No problem!"

"It must be possible!"

Before he finished speaking, the celebration hall was flooded with deafening affirmative answers.

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

This was probably the first time he had seen the person in front of him act so energetic and impassioned, even a little arrogant and a little out of character, although for other people this might just be a common speech and not a big deal.

But when it comes to the person in front of me, it's really rare.

After all, the composure he has shown in the past can even make people ignore his age involuntarily.

Moreover, in one and a half months, a newly purchased piece of equipment was used to break the operating time record of a controllable nuclear fusion reactor.

To be honest, when this is said by others, it sounds like bragging.

But if it comes to this person, it might actually be possible.

After all, he is a miracle worker.
