Vol 3 Chapter 213 fusion in progress

The plasma state can also be compressed. As the pressure increases, the flame shrinks from the size of a washbasin to the size of a fist. However, under the heating of the flame talisman, it is constantly resisting, and occasionally there are a few traces of plasma , playfully broke away from the inside, and spun around outside before joining the main force.

After all, the heating of the flame talisman is still slower than that of the pressure talisman. In other words, Yang Qing is not ready to raise the temperature of the core position to more than 100 million degrees.

According to the calculations of scientists, the core temperature of the sun is only 16 million degrees. However, at such a temperature, the fusion reaction of four hydrogen atoms into helium can be realized, thanks to the standard atmospheric pressure as high as 240 billion times pressure.

Although the sun is so big that it takes seven seconds for a photon from the inside of the sun to pass from the inside to the outside.

In fact, the time it takes for photons to pass from the inside to the outside through countless refractions and reflections may be tens or hundreds of times longer than this.

It’s just that the sun is still too big, and it concentrates more than 90% of the mass of the solar system. Even the predictions made by scientists are reasonable.

But things in this world cannot be fully explained in a reasonable way.

What people think is reasonable is basically in the ranks of classical mechanics, but when it comes to the microcosm, the scale of electrons and atoms, it follows the quantum mechanics that is incompatible with classical mechanics.

Before all the conjectures are confirmed by the solar probe, the conjectures will not become reality after all.

But in any case, it is an indisputable fact that the higher the pressure, the lower the temperature to achieve fusion.

As the pressure increases, the temperature of the plasma also increases, keeping it about the size of a fist, without much change for the time being.

The temperature increased from 1 million degrees to 10 million degrees, and then 50 million degrees, and the pressure also reached 50 million standard atmospheric pressure, and then Yang Qing felt a bright light appear, that is, in the blazing white In the middle of the plasma, photon bursts appeared in multiple places.

At the same time, the temperature of the plasma suddenly increased by one million degrees without any more bursts of flame talismans.

This is where a fusion reaction is being produced, but it has not yet reached a level where it can be sustained.

However, as the temperature and pressure accumulated and increased, this occasional phenomenon has become extremely common, and finally reached a critical point at a certain moment.

The plasma that had been compressed to the size of a child’s fist suddenly exploded, an extremely bright light suddenly exploded, and suddenly became the size of a basketball.

According to the description when the first atomic bomb exploded, a hundred suns should have erupted in front of his eyes, and even Yang Qing’s consciousness felt the burning pain for the first time.

Until now, the fusion experimental reactor has been officially ignited. The atmospheric pressure inside has exceeded 80 million, and the temperature has exceeded 60 million degrees Celsius.

Although the volume of the plasma has expanded several times after the eruption, the continuous chain reaction has allowed the fusion to continue, and the plasma still has a tendency to expand.

This is the first time that Yang Qing observes nuclear fusion at such a close distance. In fact, this is no different from a hydrogen bomb, but the scale is obviously much smaller, and it does not have such an instant explosive force, and cannot withstand the pressure of the outer wall.

At the moment when the fusion occurred, Yang Qing’s consciousness searched carefully inside, but finally he let out a sigh of relief and pulled back the roasted consciousness.

When the fusion reaction occurs, there is indeed a little aura, but compared to the aura in the middle of the thunder and lightning, this aura is almost nonexistent.

This made Yang Qing couldn’t help but start to think about whether there is something special about thunder and lightning that can promote the generation of aura.

This also proves from the side that the generation of spiritual energy has little to do with the birth and death of atoms.

Perhaps the annihilation reaction of antimatter and positive matter will have the participation of aura?

Yang Qing thought with some uncertainty, or the research on antimatter could be put on the agenda.

Antimatter is different from dark matter and dark energy, it is purely the opposite of existing cosmic matter, such as positive electrons, antiprotons and so on.

When they meet with positive matter, they will be annihilated, producing energy and photons. Due to the annihilation reaction, the existence of matter is completely consumed. Therefore, according to the mass-energy equation, the energy produced is also amazing, which is more amazing than the fusion reaction. It is regarded as the next generation Nuclear weapons, and a source of energy for aerospace engines.

Now even in the entire Blue Star, the existence of antimatter is calculated in a fraction of a gram, which only exists in the laboratory and cannot be used in practice.

Yang Qing shook his head and put away the knowledge about antimatter in his head. Now is the critical moment for the reactor to proceed. Although he doesn’t need his introduction, he still needs his constant attention.

The concentration of helium three is 20%, and only this concentration of helium three will not directly turn the experimental reactor into a nuclear bomb and explode directly when the chain reaction occurs.

As the reaction progressed, the temperature and pressure in the core cabin reached a certain limit, and the pressure in a certain place of the core cabin suddenly dropped a little bit.

Then these plasmas squeezed over there like a cat seeing a fish with a fishy smell all over its body.

Then a part of the plasma turned into a thin strip, drilled out of it, and drilled towards the predetermined place.

The place where they go is the more important part of the experimental reactor, that is, the magnetic fluid power generation device.

Through this, the reactor can get rid of the fate of boiling water and start generating electricity directly.

In the super-strong magnetic field made by the superconductor ~www.readmtl.com~ the charged particles bend towards the two poles respectively.

At the same time, a current has been generated on the plate due to the potential difference.

The charged particles are swept away at the position of about one millimeter of the plate, and do not touch the plate. Although the efficiency of power generation cannot be increased to the maximum extent, it will not damage the plate, thus ensuring the continuity of current generation. .

Leaving from the polar plate, the temperature of the plasma drops suddenly, but it still maintains the state of plasma. It circles a circle, and throws off carbon ash, a product of helium triple fusion, on the way.

Then, together with the newly added helium-three gas, they flew towards the core stack. During this process, the temperature of the new helium-three mixed gas was also raised to over 10 million degrees.

With the leakage of the plasma, the pressure of the core stack began to decrease, but it was supplemented by the gas entering from the outside again.

With the addition of outside gas, although the temperature dropped, the pressure began to stabilize, and the fusion reaction also decreased from the beginning, almost interrupted, and entered a state of steady progress.
