Chapter 548: Who doesnt have a dream of a great nation?
As he scrolled through the pages of analytical data in his hand, Xu Chuan had a smile on his face.
At least judging from the current experimental data, the compression of plasma turbulence is quite ideal.
The combination of high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting material and stellarator seems to have a complementary effect, which is greater than 1 1 = 2. This is something he did not expect.
Of course, in this process, mathematical models for high-temperature plasma turbulence also play a key role.
Without the need to calculate effects such as internal plasma magnetic islands and magnetic surface tearing, mathematical models are better at controlling high-temperature plasma in the stellarator reactor chamber than controlling tokamak devices.
The combination of various factors resulted in the excellent data from this experiment.
And more importantly, this is the first trial run experiment. Whether it is the external field coil or the numerical control model of plasma turbulence, it is not in the most perfect state and needs to be continuously adjusted with subsequent experimental data.
This means that the size of the stellarator may be further compressed.
Of course, this range is not large.
But for the space shuttle, where every inch of land is at a premium, every additional space compressed means more endurance, more material carrying capacity, and more possibilities.
.......
After reading the analysis report in his hand, Xu Chuan breathed a long sigh of relief, raised his head with a smile on his face, looked at Liang Qu, the general director of the Energy Research Institute, and said:
"It is indeed quite excellent. There is hope for small and controllable nuclear reactors."
Liang Qu responded with a smile on his face: "Judging from this experimental data, it should be possible for us to make the stellarator the size of a small container. If it is this size, there will be no problem in applying it to aircraft carriers or large fighters.
.”
Xu Chuan nodded and said with a smile: "It's not a big problem when applied to aircraft carriers. As for large fighters, it depends on the engine."
In fact, whether it is miniaturized controllable nuclear fusion technology or aerospace engine technology, the purpose of his initial research was not for the military industry, but for aerospace, to visit more distant planets and universes.
Moreover, technology in the military industry is not within the scope of his research, and he is not very interested in researching weapons.
However, if his research can contribute to the country's defense, he is still happy to see this.
As for how to use it on aircraft carriers or fighter jets, that has nothing to do with him.
However, I believe that as long as these devices mature, domestic research institutions and academies of sciences will quickly transform them into equipment that can be actually used.
As for Xinghai Research Institute, it mainly provides relevant basic technologies.
Of course, this is not free.
Although Xinghai Research Institute is subsidized by national scientific research funds, and many large-scale research projects have been invested by the state through various means, this cannot change the fact that Xinghai Research Institute is not a purely state-owned enterprise.
Whether it is for military or commercial use, in short, taking technology from Xinghai Research Institute requires payment.
This is also one of the important sources of funding for Xinghai Research Institute in the future.
Simply relying on the state for financial subsidies is not a good idea. Even domestic state-owned enterprises, except for those wholly state-owned companies, are responsible for their own revenue.
Hearing this, Liang Qu thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Indeed, the engine of the space shuttle is very critical. Although the small controllable nuclear fusion reactor can provide sufficient energy, if the thrust of the engine is not enough, even if the large-scale
There is no point in moving the fusion reactor to the space shuttle."
"But if we can get a matching aerospace engine and build an aircraft carrier-level ship several hundred meters in size, then the deterrent effect will be really great."
"If a mothership of this level were launched into the air, one would be enough to deter the whole world."
Thinking about it, Liang Qu's mouth almost watered.
Men, who doesn’t have a military heart and a dream of a great nation?
If such a super large mothership really takes off, as long as a full-scale nuclear war does not break out, they may be able to confront conventional military forces around the world.
Hearing Liang Qu's dream, Xu Chuan smiled, shook his head, and said, "For a mothership of this level, even if you don't consider the structural strength of the material, how can you push it to the sky?"
This was not the first time he had heard of this dream. Not to mention Liang Qu, everyone above had asked him if he had a chance to achieve it, and he had even thought about it himself.
As for the answer, unless the legendary anti-gravity engine can be developed, there is currently no possibility in the atmosphere.
Neither the material structure nor the thrust of the engine is enough to support such a huge thing off the ground.
Hearing this, Liang Qu came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Sometimes it's good to have some dreams. People always have to have some dreams."
After a pause, he seemed to remember something, and then asked: "By the way, I remember that our Aerospace Research Institute seems to be researching matching aerospace engines, right? How is the progress? Is there any hope to keep up with our research work?
?”
Xinghai Research Institute is quite large and is one of the top research institutions in the country.
Although the four major internal research institutes often cooperate with each other in research and can mobilize each other's researchers and resources, when it comes to projects and development, they do each perform their own duties.
For example, the Energy Research Institute is responsible for the research and development of miniaturized controllable nuclear fusion technology, second- and third-generation controllable nuclear fusion technology, lithium batteries/hydrogen batteries, etc.
The Aerospace Research Institute is currently focusing all its energy on the research of aerospace engines and aerospace engines.
The heads of each research institute know about these general things, but there are probably not many people who know all the details about the internal progress of each research institute.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The head of the research institute in front of me must know, but he really does not know very well the progress of the research on the aerospace engine.
On the one hand, I am too busy with my own research and have no time to care about other people’s research.
On the other hand, there are issues such as power. As the director of an energy research institute, why do you always care about the affairs of other research institutes?
In China, or anywhere, this kind of thing is quite taboo.
Xu Chuan thought for a moment and replied: "I'm not very clear about the specific details. My attention here was previously focused on small-scale fusion technology, and I didn't ask much about things over there."
"But generally speaking, the direction and route are already there, and the drawings are probably about to be completed. As for whether it can meet the theoretical standards, we still need to wait until the engine is physically manufactured."
It's not that he doesn't want to tell Liang Qu the situation, but that he really doesn't know the specific details and progress.
Not to mention the Xinghai Research Institute, even the Chuanhai Research Institute that he created himself, he has not managed it very much, and the delegation of power is quite serious.
On the one hand, it is impossible without decentralization. He does not have so much energy to take into account academic research and daily management at the same time.
On the other hand, he is really not very interested in these things. No matter how much money he makes, he still invests it in scientific research and technology development.
For him, as long as China still supports him and stands behind him, there is no need to consider these things.
As for himself, what he hopes more is to go to a higher-level world to see. If he didn't complete things in his previous life, there is hope in this life.
Hearing this, Liang Qu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
This person's heart is really big and pure.
If it were any other scholar who reached his position, he would have more or less other thoughts.
For a very large research institution like Xinghai Research Institute, which invests more than 10 billion every year, others will probably only hold it tightly in their hands to understand the institute's situation in detail.
This guy is good. Apart from pointing out the direction of the institute and doing his own research, he has hardly been involved in other things, especially management.
In the domestic academic research environment, this can be said to be special.
Of course, this is also quite beneficial.
Just as the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton is a holy place in the field of mathematics, Xinghai Research Institute, under this leadership, may also become a holy place in the field of domestic research.
