Chapter 18 - 18.Modified star imitator

Half a month later.

Inside the nuclear physics laboratory of Sandaokou University.

Lv Yongchang sat quietly in an office that was assigned to him individually.

He frowned slightly as the pen in his hand quickly worked out some equations on the A4 paper in front of him.

Half a month had passed, and the room temperature superconducting wires made of carbon nanotube material had already been produced.

It had to be said that the power of the state apparatus was extremely huge!

The moment he learned of the breakthrough in room temperature superconducting material technology, Hong Bei personally gave the order to manufacture it.

Although Lv Yongchang had a perfect carbon nanotube preparation program in his hands, ... because of the manufacturing process problems at this time, throughout the entire country of Xia, there was only one Xia Sheng Group specializing in the manufacture of high precision equipment that was able to manufacture superconducting wires that met the standards in bulk.

As for those foreign companies ...

Hong Qiming is not a fool, really want to give them the order, it is estimated that in a few days time, several Western countries should be able to "master" room temperature superconductivity technology!

Under the stimulation of a large amount of funds and administrative orders, Xia Sheng Group's carbon nanotube wire manufacturing capacity continues to expand!

In just half a month's time, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of room temperature superconducting wires were shipped to the nuclear physics laboratory of Sandaokou University.

At this time in the nuclear physics laboratory, has installed an old style star imitation device.

Only, at this time, the spiral wires on the outer layer of the star imitator had all been removed by the staff.

As for the inner cavity of the star imitator, it had been replaced with a newly manufactured one a few days ago.

The material used for the new inner cavity was naturally the new material that Lu Yongchang had performed on the blackboard!

According to the material tests, the inner cavity of the reactor made up of this new material could perfectly resist the hundreds of millions of degrees of heat when the fusion reaction occurred!

In addition, when Fang Xu conducted the material test, he was surprised to find that this new material could also perfectly resist the irradiation damage caused by nuclear fusion.

While Fang Xu was surprised, a trace of admiration for Lv Yongchang also rose in his heart.

Such a powerful material was actually deduced on paper by a sophomore undergraduate!

Fang Xu couldn't help but feel slightly ashamed.

At his age, he had really lived to a dog's death!

Naturally, Lv Yongchang was not aware of those thoughts in Fang Xu's mind, at this moment, he was sitting in his office carefully checking the dimensional parameters of this Star Imitation Device.

According to Fang Xu's words, this imitation star machine was initially used by the research institute on the D country side.

As for why it wasn't used ... naturally returned to the original question.

The difficulty of manufacturing a star imitation machine was extremely huge!

Unlike the regular spiral shape of the Toca Maca, the shape of the star imitation device was simply like a chaotic ball of wool!

The position of each strand of wire needed to be closely calculated to ensure that it could generate a magnetic field at a specific angle!

At this moment, Lu Yongchang was accomplishing exactly this.

He needed to calculate the precise position of each superconducting wire according to the dimensional parameters of the star imitator, to ensure that a closed, twisted ring-shaped magnetic cage could be formed in the inner cavity of the star imitator, in order to constrain the extremely high-temperature plasma.

...

"Whew ..."

Lu Yongchang gently put down the pen in his hand and let out a long breath of turbid air.

The days-long calculations had finally yielded pleasing results.

According to his calculations, these superconducting coils could provide a strong magnetic field with a strength of up to 100T.

This would be the most powerful artificial magnetic field on Earth!

This 100T strong magnetic field could perfectly restrain a fusion plasma of hundreds of millions of degrees in the center of the reactor's inner cavity!

He stood up, slowly walked to the office door and gently twisted the door handle.

The sound of the office room door opening attracted Fang Xu's attention.

"Hm? You finished the calculation task?"

Seeing the relaxed expression on Lv Yongchang's face, Fang Xu's eyes flashed with a flash of surprise and immediately asked.

It was only a few days?

In full, it was only a little more than three days, right?

Such a complicated calculation task, could Lv Yongchang complete it in three days?

Fang Xu did not believe it in his heart.

Seemingly seeing the color of doubt in Fang Xu's eyes, Lv Yongchang let out a light laugh and said, "Of course it's completed!"

While saying that, he handed Fang Xu a pile of A4 paper in his hand, "Why don't ... you check it?"

Fang Xu received the A4 paper handed over by Lu Yongchang with a surprised face.

Upon seeing the dense calculation formulas on it, Fang Xu slightly gulped.

Although he hated to admit it, he seemed to be somewhat unable to understand the calculations on it.

"Cough cough ... I believe in your calculations!"

Saying that, Fang Xu returned the pile of A4 paper to Lv Yongchang with a serious face, "Why don't you ... let Tianhe One check your calculations?"

Lv Yongchang froze and gently nodded, agreeing to Fang Xu's proposal.

Concerning controllable nuclear fusion, all research resources were prioritized to be supplied to the Sandaokou Nuclear Physics Laboratory.

The application had just been reported, and the usage time of Tianhe One was allocated.

Fang Xu carefully input every result calculated by Lv Yongchang into the computer, and then, the Tianhe One carried out the calculations.

At this time, the role of the supercomputer completely appeared.

In just half an hour, the result of the calculation appeared in front of Fang Xu and Lv Yongchang's eyes.

Success!

...

The appearance of the superconducting wire arrangement plan meant that the transformation plan of the Star Imitation Vehicle had proceeded to the final step.

One by one, coil brackets at specific angles were installed outside the Star Imitation Vehicle.

These brackets were able to serve the purpose of fixing the coils.

After all, for the Star Imitation Vehicle, once the outer superconducting coils shifted their position even the slightest bit, it would mean a disaster.

Once the inner toroidal cage was damaged, hundreds of millions of degrees of plasma would come into direct contact with the surface of the inner cavity!

I believe no one would want to see such a consequence!

Therefore, when it came to completing the final modification of the Star Imitation Vehicle, both Lv Yongchang and Fang Xu were in high spirits, fearing that there would be any minor mistakes.

...

Three days later.

The remodeling work of the old Star Imitation Vessel was completely finished.

"Yongchang, when do we start the first ignition experiment?"

Fang Xu's voice sounded from the side.

Unconsciously, Fang Xu had already treated Lv Yongchang as his superior, and before every research decision, he would take the lead in asking Lv Yongchang's opinion.

"Now!"

Lv Yongchang's eyes flashed with a brilliant light, moving his gaze away from the arithmetic A4 paper on his desk, and said in a deep voice, "Academician Fang, report it up."

"This afternoon, we'll start the first ignition experiment!"

With Fang Xu's application for the first ignition experiment to Hong Qiming, there were some changes within the Sandaokou University.

Dozens of Special Forces soldiers entered the Sandaokou University in civilian clothes, and all the main roads leading to the Nuclear Physics Laboratory were blocked.

Even, on some of the high buildings near the nuclear physics laboratory, there were already snipers who had set up their sniper rifles and observation equipment in advance.

It was no exaggeration to say that at this point in time, there was no way for a bird to safely fly through the Nuclear Physics Laboratory!

All of this was to ensure that the controlled fusion experiments were conducted without any interference from external unknown factors!
