Chapter 466: Difficulties were overcome one by one, and nuclear fusion entered the manufacturing stage!(2/2)
It took up to a month!
The next morning, Wang Hao couldn't wait to leave the Metal Materials Laboratory. He left very simply, waved to others and got in the car without even a trace of nostalgia.
This made the people who came to say goodbye feel strange.
Someone asked Yang Jun, "Academician Yang, why do I feel that Academician Wang is a little unhappy? We have obviously completed such a major research..."
"He left very simply, as if he was a little impatient."
"If it were me, I would have stayed for an extra week. Such a result... Once this problem is overcome, the research on nuclear fusion can enter the next stage, right?"
Yang Jun shook his head funnyly, "So you are not Academician Wang!"
"What's the meaning?"
Everyone else also looked over.
Yang Jun said, "You guys still don't understand Academician Wang. When it comes to research issues, our concepts of time are different."
"You think one month is very short, but Academician Wang thinks it is very long, and he obviously doesn't like materials research."
"As for the results..."
"Do you think Academician Wang will care about this result?"
A group of people were asked.
They thought it made sense after thinking about it carefully. The research results of the most advanced materials were very important to them, but Wang Hao wouldn't care at all.
The basic materials used in the research process, including β-iron, α-tungsten, α-silicon, α-hydrogen, etc., were all developed by Wang Hao’s team. The final dense material manufacturing process is also Wang Hao’s annihilation force field.
Completed by the experimental group.
The current results are only applied materials research.
Wang Hao studies new elements, new substances and new technologies, and does work in the most cutting-edge scientific fields in the world.
It can only be said that the gap between them and Wang Hao is too big, and they are not on the same dimensional level at all.
…
Compression-resistant insulation materials that are resistant to neutron impact are the most difficult and important research among the material difficulties in nuclear fusion design.
Half a month later, the Metal Materials Laboratory basically determined that ‘Beta Iron Tungsten-003’ met the requirements.
The reason why I say "basically confirmed" is because subsequent testing will be done, and the testing of material life cannot be completed in half a month.
They need to continuously apply pressure to determine the endurance and service life of 'Beta Iron Tungsten-003'.
This is related to the ignition duration.
Although the nuclear fusion equipment can be "switched off and paused" and there will definitely be a need for "filling materials" during the process, it is not easy to replace the inner insulation material.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! That cannot be completed by pausing for a few days.
In any case, 'Beta Iron Tungsten-003' can at least become an 'inner layer material solution'. At this point, the major difficulties in the direction of materials have been overcome, and the remaining small material needs can be solved alternatively.
, research is also relatively easy.
After the research results were submitted, Teacher Xu immediately contacted Wang Hao and discussed the next step of nuclear fusion research.
Then, with a complicated mood, he sighed, "This day has finally arrived!"
He was referring to nuclear fusion research entering the manufacturing stage.
Teacher Xu has long known that this day would come, because Wang Hao's team has provided too many high-end materials and technologies. As long as the research continues normally, there is great hope that various material difficulties can be solved.
It's just a little ahead of schedule now.
Perhaps the main reason is that Wang Hao personally participated in the research, otherwise we would have to wait a long time for "compression-resistant insulation materials that can resist neutron impact".
The next step is more complicated.
The nuclear fusion design phase has been concluded, and we can begin to discuss manufacturing issues later. There are too many factors involved in manufacturing.
They need to prepare for large meetings.
People from many fields will attend the meeting to discuss the manufacture of nuclear fusion equipment. Their plan is to prepare to build power stations relying on nuclear fusion equipment.
This is the general route.
If you are building a power station, there is no need to limit the size of the equipment. No matter how large the floor area is, it is acceptable, and the requirements are naturally much lower.
However, there are also many problems in building power stations.
For example, where do you see the power station? After it is built, which power plants will be replaced? Will subsequent equipment debugging and experiments have any impact?
Also, what is the expected investment? How to raise funds?
During the entire construction process, what institutions and factories are involved, how to solve confidentiality issues, what R&D institutions are involved...
etc.
