Chapter 91 Pressure
"Professor Lu, Professor Lin, Professor Zhang!"
I took a special car to the conference hall, and most of the people who attended the conference had already entered the venue.
Lu Yi took Lin Meng and Zhang Qing to verify their identity and just walked in, a middle-aged man with sparse hair came up and greeted him warmly.
"Don't, Professor Zhang is polite. There is only Professor Lin here, and Zhang Qingke and I are still doctoral students."
Lu Yi waved his hand quickly and said that the person who came here was Professor Zhang, who was studying imitation devices at Nanhua University.
From above, it is decided to formally deal with the power of imitation stars. There is no shortage of funds, personnel, and resources in related industries. This scientific scholar who contributed his hair to the country is living a more and more comfortable life.
The imitation device of the national project is still in the process of designing and building. Professor Zhang is currently the only imitation device in China. He is not ordinary jealous and often asks Lu Yi to discuss issues, share his years of research experience while also catching up with equipment in the cloud.
Of course, this is mutual benefit. Professor Zhang has studied some of his views and experiences on imitation devices for most of his life, which has also brought considerable inspiration to Lu Yi and the others.
"I guess it will be a professor in less than two years."
Professor Zhang was not embarrassed at all, but the enthusiastic smile on his face made Lu Yi and others feel a little awkward.
“There are quite a lot of people in this meeting.”
Without continuing to get entangled in this topic, Lu Yi looked around and looked at the topic of change.
In the conference hall, there were estimated to be six or seven hundred people. If everyone hadn't had good quality and kept discussing quietly, then this place might be the vegetable market.
"In response to the construction of the Map Laboratory demonstration reactor, the upper level plans to join forces from various industries to concentrate on the controllable nuclear fusion."
Professor Zhang looked at the crowds of people chatting together in the venue, and said, "People from plasma physics, nuclear physics, materials and mathematics have been invited. They have not arrived yet. It is said that the total number of people is more than 800, and they are all big names in the industry."
If the original controlled nuclear fusion project was huge and it was not successful for a long time, everyone was playing with snakes and lacked real fierce competition.
When Lu Yi brought the plasma turbulence model into the field, it was like a catfish mixed in a pond, allowing Map Laboratory to complete the breakthrough first.
Controllable nuclear fusion saw the dawn, and major countries and institutions were stimulated to increase their investment, and the water in nuclear fusion was alive.
Otherwise, the test and construction of the demonstration reactor would cost at least 10 billion US dollars. Map Laboratory alone would not have that much capital, and the domestic situation would not have felt the pressure and would not hold this meeting.
"This seems to have little to do with us. Can you still obey our commands and orders?"
Lu Yi smiled, not caring too much about these.
Because even if we join forces, those real bigwigs who are not short of projects and funds will not put down their projects and obey other people's research arrangements.
This actually means increasing the cooperation between funding and industry resources, which is not very attractive to him who is independent of funding.
"Who dares to ignore you now and at home and internationally who are paying attention to controlled nuclear fusion?"
Professor Zhang glanced at Lu Yi and asked in a low voice: "It is convenient to reveal how long is the constraint time of tomorrow's imitation star device?"
“68 minutes.”
It has been half a month since Map Laboratory announced the start of the demonstration reactor construction. During this period, Lu Yi and the others were not idle. They kept starting the test to collect data and then adjusted the control parameters of the tomorrow's imitation star device.
With a mathematician who is a probable winner of the Prince Fields Medal, it is very effective, and the constraint time has increased from 95 seconds to 68 minutes.
This improvement speed is faster than the previous improvement speed of the Map Lab's spiral 7-X.
After all, this is a control solution. Before the control solution reaches the current optimal state of the star-like device, the competition is about data collection and data analysis efficiency.
“68 minutes…”
Professor Zhang couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked in shock: "Is there still room for further optimization of the control plan?"
"The optimal state has not been adjusted to the best state. If the control plan is completely adjusted, it can be between 110 minutes and 115 minutes."
Lu Yi shook his head a little regretfully. He was better than blue than blue. The predecessor of Tomorrow's imitation star device was WEGA. As the father of the spiral stone 7-X, he was still not as good as his son.
After all, the limit of optimizing the control solution is about 130 minutes without adjusting the design and structure of the imitation device and replacing new material components.
However, this was the first time I was at a disadvantage. The subsequent competition was to see Lu Yi and Map Laboratory in the improvement of the imitation device structural design, breakthroughs in material performance, and industrial technology.
As a father’s imitation star device, it is possible that his son will be suppressed.
“110 minutes!”
Professor Zhang showed a happy expression on his face, and he smiled happily: "I just said that the plasma turbulence model has been solved. The imitation device is definitely more advantageous than the current Tokmak. I see why Old Man Wang competes with us this time!
Professor Lu, the entire meeting was 3 days, and there was not much time left today, mainly to determine the charter for the next project.
Tomorrow, the top will meet several of our main leaders in controlled nuclear fusion research to determine where to tilt the next center of gravity.
Day 3 is to formulate an overall project plan and concentrate resources and strength to overcome controlled nuclear fusion.
There is no feasible solution to the problems of magnetic surface tearing and magnetic islands on Tokmak. The maximum constraint time is only 1262 seconds. There is no doubt that the next center of gravity will be on the imitation device."
“This is very unique to our country.”
Lu Yi smiled and shook his head and said, "But even if the imitation star device reaches 110 minutes tomorrow, there is nothing to be happy about.
The latest constraint data on Mapu’s day before yesterday has reached 238 minutes, and the demonstration reactor is under tender and construction. We have not even met the prerequisites for building the demonstration reactor.”
"Faced with the continuous rise of Map Labs, which is getting closer to commercialization, there is really nothing to be happy about, but it just helps me feel angry for many years."
Professor Zhang sighed: "Actually, everyone is under great pressure now. If we can take the lead in completing the commercialization of nuclear fusion, even if technology needs to be shared, our country's dilemma over the years can be broken at once.
Through paid transactions, the industrial master machine technology and various high-tech and cutting-edge technologies that have been lost over the years can be compensated, and the problems of territorial restrictions and island chain restrictions can be dissolved."
"The problem will be solved. Before the real first commercial nuclear fusion reactor appears, no one dares to say who must be ahead."
Lu Yi comforted and said: "50 years ago, we could bloom sunflowers in less than three years. Today we could also bloom with a small sun..."
