Chapter 395: Not only are we not afraid, we even feel like laughing
Xu You did not have any regrets about not being able to accept interviews or appear on TV.
At Xu You’s current level, he no longer cares about fame and fortune.
At that time, at the Nobel Prize ceremony, Xu You had already stole the show in front of people all over the world.
Even if he never stands in the spotlight in the future, Xu You will be happy to enjoy this state.
Shortly after this news was released.
Major media in other countries also reported the news.
This sudden emergence of a new type of controlled nuclear fusion device really made nuclear fusion experts from other countries feel at a loss.
"Didn't they already have a controlled nuclear fusion device called EAST? Why are they building a new controlled nuclear fusion device?"
"No, this is not a magnetic confinement controlled nuclear fusion device at all. This size is much smaller than a normal device that uses magnetic confinement to carry out fusion reactions. There is no space to place a huge magnet."
"Perhaps... they don't use external magnets to create a magnetic field? What kind of technology do they use?"
I have had the experience of being slapped in the face many times before.
No one dared to question the authenticity of the news released by China anymore.
Since they have clearly stated that this controlled nuclear fusion device can discharge continuously for two thousand seconds.
This is basically an ironclad fact.
"They even mastered controlled nuclear fusion."
The white-haired old man looked at the news with a frown on his face, his expression full of sadness.
In recent years, China has achieved varying degrees of breakthroughs in many fields, including aerospace, superconductivity, quantum computers, and chips.
If we only look at one area, such transcendence may still be acceptable.
But when these achievements are put together, they will undoubtedly deal a fatal blow to the bald eagle, the world overlord.
"China is one of the member states participating in the ITER project. According to the requirements of the agreement, this achievement should be shared with us."
Hearing the news, the white-haired old man regained hope.
"That's true. We are all in the same organization, working together to achieve the same goal of verifying the technological feasibility of peaceful use of fusion energy. If we hadn't allowed them to join this organization, perhaps they wouldn't have conducted any research on controlled nuclear fusion yet."
In fact, in ITER, China is almost the only country that can complete the assigned project with quality and quantity.
If it weren't for our efforts, this project would have been delayed for who knows how long.
On the other hand, other countries may withdraw from this cooperation project at any time for various reasons.
After that, the US personnel in charge of ITER asked us to share the "Dongri" technology.
We were well prepared for their request.
This technology, which was completely developed by us independently, will naturally not be handed over to others easily.
After receiving the message, we immediately responded politely.
"Huaxia has always strictly followed the requirements in ITER and completed the assigned work on time. 'Dongri' is an unofficial project and has nothing to do with ITER. Due to its exploratory nature, the project is full of unknown factors. We are willing to bear the risks of the 'Dongri' project alone, and we also hope that other countries can strictly follow the requirements of ITER and complete their respective tasks on time."
We have given enough face in this reply.
If I were to put it more bluntly.
That is, this is our own technology and has nothing to do with other countries.
You can't even complete the tasks assigned to you in the cooperative project, and yet you still dream of getting our technology for free?
He really has no shame at all.
After receiving Huaxia’s reply.
The bald eagle could only rage helplessly, expressing its strong dissatisfaction with our actions and threatening to remove us from the ITER project.
We did not feel any fear about this "threat", but rather felt like laughing.
Because the ITER project is originally an experimental project.
The ultimate goal of ITER is to achieve a self-sustaining deuterium-tritium discharge of 300 to 500 seconds, with an expected power of 500MW.
Even if this goal is achieved, the entire nuclear fusion device will have no commercial value and will be a project that will eventually be dismantled.
If we hadn't shouldered the heavy responsibility in the project, this organization would have probably been disbanded long ago.
Now that we have achieved significant success with our fully self-developed technology.
The significance of ITER to us is already very small.
After completing the first very successful experiment , Xu You continued to lead the entire project team to attack new goals.
The first thing to do is to carefully summarize the first experiment and find out the reason why the data began to fluctuate after two thousand seconds of the experiment.
Although the data fluctuation range is not large, it is still within a safe range.
But compared with the previous two thousand seconds, such fluctuations still have certain hidden risks.
Another thing is to start designing an enhanced version of "Dongri".
The first version of the "Dongri" controlled nuclear fusion device abandoned external magnets and relied solely on the magnetic field generated by internal plasma to perform self-magnetic confinement.
This makes the device much smaller, but at the same time, the magnetic field is relatively less powerful.
In terms of discharge power, it does not even exceed the traditional tokamak device.
But if an external magnet is added, the two magnetic fields can be superimposed in the positive direction.
The device's ability to contain internal plasma will be even stronger.
In this way, the device will be able to achieve a more intense nuclear fusion reaction and a higher discharge power.
In the following period of time, the "Dongri" project team entered into intensive work on these two tasks.
These two tasks may seem simple, but they are full of challenges in practice.
Even under the influence of magnetic confinement, the temperature of the material inside the device is well below its melting point.
However, long-term high temperature will also cause some minor changes in the properties of the material.
Such small problems cannot be ignored.
In addition, when it comes to the superposition of magnetic fields, how to make two complex magnetic fields work well together is also a great challenge for everyone.
To this end, Xu You used his brain simulation skills many times to simulate the entire process.
However, due to the limitations of his own brain power, in some places where the computing requirements are very high, with Xu You's current brain power, it is still difficult to complete the huge calculations in a short time.
With the previous lesson, Xu You no longer dared to break his limits easily and overload his brain power.
At this time, Xu You remembered the island artificial intelligence with extremely powerful computing power.
