The nuclear fusion start-up experiment was a complete success, but this was only an experimental success, and there is still some way to go before it can be fully used. Next, more persistence experiments will be done to verify whether the duration of nuclear fusion is within the theoretical time range.
Theoretically, as long as the heavy water extraction plant continuously supplies deuterium and tritium, and the ultra-high-voltage generator can ensure stable output, the artificial sun can continue to operate.
The current small goal of the experiment is to maintain a high temperature of 200 million degrees and keep it on for hundreds of thousands of hours, which is 4166 days. The previous human record was only 20 seconds and the temperature was only 160 million degrees.
However, there are too many details to pay attention to. Temperature, vacuum, corrosion degree of materials by thermal radiation, remote control signals, and high-voltage current all need to be paid attention to at all times.
The researchers had calmed down at this time. They straightened their work clothes that were wrinkled by hugging each other, washed away the tears on their faces, and returned to work.
The tone of everyone's speech has completely changed, with joy and hope. They are now constantly creating new historical miracles. It is a lifelong pride to be a participant in it.
Then, Changtian Science and Technology Physics Laboratory began to write a "paper on controllable nuclear fusion", which recorded the relevant principles and experimental data.
Originally, the laboratory was afraid that other countries would find out the core secret, but Chen Xiao was not afraid at all.
The principles have been announced a long time ago. The tokamak device was a product that appeared in the 1960s. Who doesn't know the principles?
To put it simply, the plasma electric fluid created with ultra-high voltage current passes through the vacuum chamber and is continuously heated under the action of electromagnetism. When the plasma temperature reaches the ignition condition, it is ignited and combined with materials such as tritium and deuterium to produce nuclear fusion.
At the same time, a strong magnetic field can control the plasma current and reduce the temperature, making the process controllable.
This is nuclear fusion in the direction of magnetic confinement, and there is no room for development of the other inertia.
What the system currently gives Chen Xiao is an improvement on the original foundation, not a complete change of thinking.
But even so, optimizing the corresponding prerequisite data, such as the number of turns of the coil, the ratio of voltage, current, and vacuum tube radius, requires hundreds of millions of improvements to achieve the desired effect. Chen Xiaoshao has been away for many years. detour.
The principle is clear. What holds us back is manufacturing capacity. Others cannot produce the superconducting materials of Changtian Technology, nor can they obtain the high-energy fuel required for ultra-high voltage generators. Without these two things, the power cannot be reached and the energy cannot be controlled. , just looking for death.
So no matter the principle, if you throw the materials to them, they can't analyze the ingredients.
The experimental data is very detailed, but the problem is that it is too early. After all, other countries have not turned on the machine for so long. How do they know what will happen in the vacuum chamber that has been running for a day?
They must also not know how much the ignition efficiency will increase after the plasma current exceeds one trillion, let alone the utilization efficiency of tritium and deuterium at 200 million degrees.
At present, regarding the application of Changtian Technology in controllable nuclear fusion, the West can only kneel down and read the paper, without the ability to refute the doubts through experiments.
Now that the little sun has begun to operate, even if it is still in an experimental state, it can be produced as a supporting system and produce actual value.
Wang Xiang's first thought was to support the production of the energy block factory. The current output is really stretched.
In the past, the energy block factory relied on the weather, using light energy from the sun. When it was cloudy or rainy, the output was affected. If it was supplemented by electricity generated by firepower or water power, the cost would be dozens of times higher.
Now the problem is solved, turn the heat of the small sun into light energy and store it directly in the energy block.
Rows of pipes covered with black paint are conducted from the laboratory to the energy block processing plant. The inside of these pipes is transparent, just like the optical fiber is covered with a black outer skin. This is to prevent the leakage of light.
This project requires a lot of work and needs to be buried deep underground, even deeper than the drainage pipe.
Although South Africa is still very barren at present, we must prepare in advance to pave the way for building bridges and digging water wells in the future.
This kind of project is naturally welcomed by the people in the Hoxton area. They don't understand investment, but they understand that if they follow Changtian Technology, they will have jobs and food to eat.
With Little Sun, Changtian Technology's energy block manufacturing costs have dropped again. The previous cost was 850 meters to 1000 meters per meal, equivalent to six to seven thousand yuan.
Now after using the energy generated by nuclear fusion, the cost is 30 yuan.
The calorific value of the energy block is as high as 1700-2000 kcal per gram. It is decomposed by bacterial colonies and has an efficiency of 90%, up to nearly 1800 kcal. This is an energy block used to generate electricity.
If it is an energy block with a lower calorific value, the cost is only 25 yuan per ton.
Now you understand why there is a serious warning about the consumption amount on the energy bar, right?
The original intention of this thing is actually to store energy, either to generate electricity or to supply cars, so as to ensure the normal operation of Changtian Technology's electronic equipment.
Becoming food is only the last option, but South Africa is too poor, so it is just right to use it as food.
At present, the application market of Changtian Technology's products has spanned the life scenes of most ordinary people. Changtian Technology's products can be seen in all aspects of daily necessities, food, housing and transportation. When so many products are run, the energy consumption is astronomical.
The most important thing is that Changtian Technology’s Shenchuan laptops, Hanhai mobile phones, and Nokia mobile phones all use their own bio-batteries, which can be supplied with energy blocks.
It is more convenient to plug in and use than before, and it can store more energy than ordinary storage batteries.
Consumers of Changtian Technology welcome the energy block power supply of Changtian Technology even more, which is really cheap and delicious.
Who continues to use traditional batteries? It's just that the current production capacity is seriously insufficient, otherwise we wouldn't be so interested in controllable nuclear fusion.
Today's factory can achieve 24-hour uninterrupted lighting, and uses energy blocks produced in standard three-dimensional colony tanks (similar to shelves) to produce one ton of output a day.
Even so, the energy of the artificial sun has not been used up.
Therefore, in addition to supplying energy block factories, Changtian Technology plans to use nuclear fusion for secondary power generation, just like a nuclear power plant. The specific measure is to divide an independent power generation system to allow the heat generated by nuclear fusion to be conducted to the boiler room and push the electromagnetic coil to emit ultra-high voltage electricity. The advantage of this is that it is conducive to long-distance transmission and can be used to support power generation. Carmack's ignition.
However, the equipment is not perfect now. We will talk about it later. By that time, the ultra-high-voltage generator that powers the tokamak device does not even need to add its own high-energy fuel. As long as it has a good amplification effect, by then, the entire system will only need to continuously add tritium. , Deuterium, Changtian Technology’s industrial closed loop will be fully formed.
If such news is made public, it will only make people feel awesome, terrible, and subversive, and all oil countries will have to beg for food.
Currencies anchored to oil such as the Mi Dao will lose value in an instant, and the currency hegemony of the Mi Dao will be broken.
There is a rumor in history that someone invented a device that could drive a car using water, but the man died in an accident soon after. Water certainly cannot drive a car. This is a joke, but it reflects from the side how high the price of breaking the old order will be.
Chen Xiao plans to stay in South Africa for a while to open up all the relationships here and lay a solid foundation for his future career. His task is heavy and his burden is heavy.
After all, South Africa was run by the West before. Although CNN and NGOs have now been driven away, those are flies that cannot be put on the table. The real predators are Western capital hidden in all walks of life in South Africa.
The heads of various local departments in South Africa kept inviting Chen Xiao to parties, or dragging Chen Xiao around to look around, trying to get Changtian Technology to invest in building a factory again.
These days, Chen Xiao basically looked at all the social production departments in South Africa, and realized in his heart that he really underestimated the management of the Western world, and they really hid it very deeply.
If you don’t investigate clearly, you just foolishly build a factory, thinking that the South African people are working for you, but you don’t know that Western capital sucks the blood of the people from all kinds of inconspicuous places.
There are still many things to be done. Electricity, communications, food, and travel all need to be reshuffled. Those middle class control the basic lifeline of society. If they are unwilling to cut themselves off from Western capital, then Changtian Technology will have to open its own Corresponding company, so as not to lose the big tail.
Things are complicated. What needs to be done now is to build all the territory of the Sotho people into energy block factories and build it into the largest energy and food factory in the world. Wang Xiang is responsible for the specific things.
He went to Deckert and told him that he needed land. Deckert asked for it, and he quickly organized the tribesmen to relocate to the resettlement site. There were houses built for them by Changtian Technology, which provided a steady stream of electricity and clean water. They lived The quality has improved linearly.
In addition to life, construction within the Sotho people also provides a large number of job opportunities. Almost all Sotho people have work and food to eat.
Nowadays, in the Hoxton area, RMB is the currency used for settlement and circulation. Whoever holds RMB means that they can directly purchase Changtian Technology’s cheap products.
The Sotho territory is in full swing, and the construction work here has never stopped, and it has become even more enthusiastic.
Countless people are working, countless machines are running, artificial chants and machinery and roaring resound throughout this ancient land, glowing with new energy.
As Changtian Technology was rushing to meet the progress and there were not enough manpower, other tribesmen also flocked here. Some even moved their entire tribe, moving hundreds of kilometers and completely giving up their original territory. They were indeed very courageous. On the other hand, Generally speaking, Changtian Technology gave them enough confidence.
There are more and more people. In order to facilitate management, the Sotho people have been divided into areas in advance and made reasonable arrangements. The number of security guards is increasing, as are the number of drones, and the sense of security is overwhelming. This arrangement of the city is based on the Nine Palaces and Bagua, which can maximize land resources, have the highest transportation efficiency, and make it easier to carry out related defenses.
People's faces are full of happy smiles, everyone works hard and spontaneously, and life becomes more and more promising.
If you switch your perspective to a higher place, you can see more South Africans heading towards the Horston area, either in groups of two or three, or as a whole group.
The development of Sotho territory has attracted people from afar. People in backward areas even regard this place as the territory of gods. As long as they are close to Changtian Technology's factory, they can live a happy life.
"I have a headache! The security is really not enough, please give me more people!" Wang Dongchou pulled out a lot of his hair.
You don’t dare to leave security to others, even if you ask local people to supplement it, it will be very risky.
Chen Xiao lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then gave some advice: "We are recruiting female members in equal proportions. There should be quite a few female members in the Xia Kingdom's special forces. Don't underestimate women. Their strength may not be as good as men's, but they are more thoughtful." It’s meticulous and there’s no problem with shooting ability.”
"You can also recruit people from the Soto tribe. They are natural warriors."
Wang Dong's eyes lit up on the spot, why didn't he think of it? And he also thought of a bigger problem.
"You're not very innocent, right? You're laughing so much that you're drooling. Are you thinking of finding a wife among the female team members?" Wang Xiang curled his lips.
Wang Dong's face darkened: "I am thinking about important things for my security brothers. Do you think everyone is like you, and a tribe gives you beautiful women? A well-fed man doesn't know how hungry a man is!"
Wang Xiang's face suddenly fell. Previously, it was Decter of the Soto tribe who gave beautiful women to him, but the trend spread for some reason. Now, as long as he is the leader of the tribe, he has to give beautiful women to him. He has been doing this for a long time. They didn't dare to show up in front of others, so they could only go to the scene secretly to give instructions.
Everyone burst into laughter.
After the security problem was solved, Chen Xiao finally had to deal with the hard food. His most fundamental purpose in coming to South Africa was to negotiate with the top leaders of the South African authorities.
The meeting started under the highest level of alert. When Chen Xiao looked at the dark and big South African leader opposite, he knew that this person was not easy to talk to. He had a smile on his face, but he was actually a smiley man. Looking at his handling of the NGO incident, he knew that this person was extremely smooth and resourceful. .
"Welcome Mr. Chen, what kind of authority do you want?" The leader smiled very amiably.
Chen Xiao was not ambiguous and asked South Africa to open the port to Changtian Technology. It would be best if a separate port could be established.
"There is no precedent for opening a port and building a separate terminal for a company. This is already a matter within the national territory." As expected, the top leader looked embarrassed.
"No problem. Our cargo volume is very large. At the same time, our equipment is extremely sophisticated and its value is difficult to calculate. The whole world is calculating. It is inconvenient not to have a separate terminal. Your people can be inspectors and jointly supervise. "Chen Xiao did not give in.
The top secretary took note of this request. Negotiations are like this. They can’t be finished in one sitting. They need to be discussed when we go back after recording them.
"There are also preferential policies in taxation, land use, human resources and other aspects. This requirement is not excessive. Our investment has a strong amplification effect and drives economic improvement."
"This record."
"The most important thing is that we must use RMB as the settlement currency, and Changtian Technology only uses RMB!" Chen Xiao put forward the core demand of this negotiation.
This made the leader of South Africa frown immediately. He did not expect that Chen Xiao would make this request, or even what this request meant.
