Although it is a word to “check” this kind of thing, in fact, it is three days after all the engineers of the star project team have actually completed all the investigations.

In the laboratory embedded in the mountain, all the staff of the star project team stood in their respective positions as they did three days ago.

Standing next to the computer in the control room, Lu Zhou overlooks the steel giant beast surrounded by the densely packed coils through the floor-to-ceiling windows, which are close at hand, and the center of the chest is tidal.

Soon, this re-retrieved star device will perform its first run experiment.

For this moment, he has been waiting for half a year…

Going to Lu Zhou’s side, Sheng Xianfu shouted took a deep breath, restrained the excitement in the voice and said: “The water-cooled divertor works normally… We can start the experiment.”

I heard the report of Sheng Xianfu, Lu Zhou nodded.

“Let’s get started.”

Sheng Xianfu straightened his waist and was full of energy.

“Yes!”

The first experiment will not be too tossed, one does not involve ignition, and the second will not use hydrogen isotopes.

As for the goal of the experiment, it is also very simple, only two.

One is to confirm that the maximum field strength of the external coil can break through the 50t limit of the theoretical value, and the other is to ensure that the temperature of the indoor high-density plasma can reach 1 billion degrees Celsius.

As for the maintenance time, it doesn’t take long, and one second is enough.

As the order to start the experiment was released, the staff in the lab immediately became busy.

The switch of the liquid helium valve is opened and the sg-1 wire quickly reaches the superconducting transition temperature as expected.

With the squeaking of the eardrum, the current through the external superconducting coil begins to gradually increase, and the superconducting critical current of the sg-1 wire is continuously approached.

Looking at the feedback, the value of the magnetic field strength on the computer screen has been rising, and finally stopped at the maximum value of [51.14t], Lu Zhou’s mouth raised a smile.

51.14t!

Spiral stone 7-x.

The magnetic field strength of the bound plasma is the key to solving the problem of controlled nuclear fusion. It can realize the magnetic constraint of 50t or above in engineering. They have no doubt completed this puzzle.

The first experimental goal was successfully achieved!

From the face of Sheng Xianfu, I also saw the expression of joy, Lu Zhou nodded to him.

“Start the next experiment!”

Sheng Xianfu immediately said: “Understand!”

In the coil wound on the streamlined track, in addition to the superconducting coils fixed by the irregularly shaped blue insulating bracket, there is approximately 20% of the non-superconducting outer field coil, which is fixed under the red insulating bracket. It is mainly used to fine-tune the magnetic field shape in the pseudo-star.

As the experiment progresses to the next stage, the current in the blue coil begins to drop, while the current in the opposite red coil continues to climb, modulating the shape of the magnetic field inside the star to the expected shape.

Looking at the parameters that are constantly beating on the computer screen, Lu Zhou screamed ordered: “Injecting suffocation!”

“Yes!”

With the release of this command, the conduit connected to the inside of the star-like device injects 1mg helium into the cavity of the star-shaped star.

The helium that was initially injected was quickly dispersed into the cavity of the vacuum, which was thin to the extreme.

However, with the start of the microwave heating device, the temperature in the cavity began to rise continuously, the plasma gradually formed, and the magnetic field bound by it was continuously squeezed, and finally a layer of light was spread in the streamlined cavity channel. The blue film is slightly trembled at a frequency that is invisible to the naked eye.

Working in their respective positions, no matter engineers or researchers, everyone unconsciously squeezed their fists.

At this moment, the star imitation star in front of them is like a bite of space rare beast, which is brewing the most terrifying energy on the planet…

In fact, it is true. Even if it is a nuclear core, it is only six thousand eight hundred.

At this moment, the helium flowing in the orbit of the star-like orbit, the temperature is breaking through the boundaries of hundreds of millions.

Although its quality is only 1 mg…

This short one second is as long as a century.

Holding his fist tightly, Sheng Xianfu’s face was filled with excitement expression, and his mouth kept thinking.

“We have succeeded, we have succeeded!”

He heard a voice that was constantly chanting, and Lu Zhou’s face also showed a smile.

“Yeah, we have succeeded!”

Although it is only a phased outcome, this achievement is still gratifying.

The next topic is to solve the damage of the first wall material by plasma irradiation.

For fusion reactors, structural and functional materials can experience severe swelling and embrittlement due to high concentrations of radiation defects and accumulation of nuclear reaction products, resulting in an overall decline in core component and joint structural material properties.

To make a very vivid metaphor, high-speed neutrons hit the closely-arranged atoms on the first wall like billiards, but the atoms that are hit are not gone, but go to other places in the material. Eventually the atoms move continuously from the center to the surface, and the material slowly swells like a hollow foam.

At present, there is still no suitable way to solve this problem in academia.

Regarding this subject, Lu Zhou did not dare to say that he had full confidence, but his heart had some hidden ideas.

Of course, in addition to the key inner wall materials, there is also a vital control system, the “brain” of the controllable nuclear fusion device.

However, compared to the troubles of the former Material Science, it is quite a good solution in this respect.

After all, super-calculating this thing, as long as there is money, it can be solved.

However, it seems that it has to be funded again…

The microwave heating unit is turned off.

The current of the superconducting coil is gradually weakened.

The temperature of the plasma begins to cool…

As the “steel giant beast” stopped its low-pitched, the whole experiment ended with a perfect ending in Perfection.

When all this was over, the cheers that had been suppressed for a long time finally resounded in the lab.

Many people are even excited and tearful.

In order to celebrate this hard-won success, and to alleviate the hard work of staying up late for several months, Lu Zhou announced in front of everyone that a celebration feast was held at the Purple Mountain Hotel in the evening.

Of course, the money was made by him personally and has nothing to do with funding.

After the experiment was over, the engineers at the scene began to overhaul and maintain the equipment. After Lu Zhou handed over the scene to Sheng Xianfu, he took off his white coat and turned away from the laboratory embedded in the mountain.

The moment he stepped out of the tunnel, a ray of sunshine passed through the treetops and sprinkled on his face.

I was blinded by the rays of the outdoor light, and I was faintly aware of what Lu Zhou seemed to see.

Just between this, the long-lost light blue dialog box did not appear in his sight from the slightest omen.

[“Glass of fusion” mission chain]

[Optional branch line: 50t superconducting magnet (complete)]

[Optional branch line: first ignition (complete)]

When looking at the two dialogs, Lu Zhou squatted slightly, and then there was a hint of excitement on his face.

Complete two missions at the same time.

For him, this is really an unprecedented experience.
