Great Country Academician

Chapter 422 Final Preparations!

Accompanied by the high-level instructions, the approval documents passed all the audits as quickly as possible, and were sent to the Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Engineering Base.

At the same time, the security around the Qixia controllable nuclear fusion engineering base has directly entered the highest level of alert.

Xu Chuan took the instruction document from Gao Hongming, read it and put it on the desk.

For him, this kind of approval document is no longer a rare thing.

"By the way, Academician Xu, have you confirmed the ignition time of the demonstration reactor yet?"

After sending the approval documents, Gao Hongming asked in the office.

Hearing this question, Xu Chuan thought for a while, and said, "It's not confirmed yet, it depends on the overall progress of the demonstration reactor project."

"But the forecast should be around October."

Gao Hongming nodded and said: "There is nothing wrong with these, but when you confirm the date, can you please say hello to me or the head of the security team a few days in advance?"

"After all, the ignition of the demonstration reactor is a major event. We need to notify the Jinling Municipal Fu to cooperate with the traffic, safety, and publicity work."

Hearing this, Xu Chuan nodded and said, "There's nothing wrong with this. I'll let you guys know when I can confirm the time when the work on the demonstration pile is completed."

Gao Hongming nodded and said, "Please, Academician Xu."

"this is nothing."

After casually saying something polite, Xu Chuan picked up the signature pen and was about to continue with his work when he saw Gao Hongming still standing in his office out of the corner of his eye.

Raising his head, he looked over curiously and asked, "Is there anything else? High Hall?"

Gao Hongming took a deep breath, and asked tentatively: "Well, Academician Xu, in view of the busy work on your side, the living conditions and schedule are not very stable, the first one told me that I would like to arrange a living medical treatment for you." Assistant, protect your health, what do you think?"

Regarding the matter of arranging a life assistant for Xu Chuan, he is not the only one who has a headache, the higher ups are also very troubled.

According to common sense, scholars and scientific researchers at the level of academicians basically have life assistants arranged above them, or they are relatively older, have married and have family members or nanny to take care of their daily life.

But this one is an exception.

He was only twenty-two years old when he was elected as an academician.

This age, for others, probably just graduated from college.

Arranging a life assistant for him is not only difficult to find a suitable candidate. And more importantly, this guy seems to be very resistant to this matter.

When he was leading the "Nuclear Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion Electric Energy Mechanism Technology Project", the higher-ups proposed to arrange a life assistant for him, but he rejected it several times.

Maybe young people are not used to this?

In short, it was useless for them to beg grandpa to sue grandma, let alone a life assistant, just arrange a nanny for him, cook for him in the villa at the foot of Zijin Mountain, and he didn't disagree with cleaning.

So much so that this famous academician still relies on takeaway for meals.

To be honest, this kind of thing may not be believed by anyone.

But the higher ups are suffering too. It’s not that they don’t give them a ration, it’s that this person really doesn’t want it.

So much so that this time, when Gao Hongming mentioned this matter, he was still apprehensive, fearing that this person would reject him again.

But as the saying goes, the more you worry about something, the more likely it will happen.

Sure enough, after hearing this request, Xu Chuan refused without even thinking about it.

"Forget it. It's not that I can't take care of myself. It's better to avoid such things as life assistants. It's not necessary."

For him, life assistant has always been a very distant word, and he only learned about it when he was watching TV a long time ago.

Moreover, to be honest, he really didn't like an outsider living in his house.

Let alone an unfamiliar life assistant, even Zheng Hai, who has been his driver for two or three years, has never lived in his house.

Hearing Xu Chuan's answer, Gao Hongming smiled wryly and shook his head.

The task assigned to him above failed again.

But fortunately, the first photo above is also clear about this person's character. This time it's not mandatory. I just asked with a tentative question. What if this person changes his opinion?

Xu Chuan didn't care about it either. After receiving the instruction document for the ignition of the demonstration reactor, he turned around and started working.

After the fully optimized liquid lithium molten salt multiplication tritium system has undergone supercomputer simulation and verification and confirmed that there is no problem, the actual test was carried out on the Lixiao experimental reactor.

The experimental data was sent to Xu Chuan immediately by Zhao Hongzhi.

"Academician Xu, the test data of the liquid lithium molten salt multiplication tritium system has come out."

"We used a Nb activation foil with a neutron source intensity of 567 mg for monitoring. The Nb activation foil was placed 30° to the right of the neutron emission direction, and the distance to the target was 22.6 cm."

"The energy of the D beam is 250 keV. After the D-T reaction anisotropy correction and the attenuation correction calculation of the rotating target, the activation reaction rate R of the Nb activation foil at this point is 6.26×10-29. Combined with the irradiation and measurement conditions, the neutron source is calculated The total integral yield is 4.68×1015 neutrons.”

Listening to Zhao Hongzhi's report, Xu Chuan directly flipped the report results to the final TBR numerical statistics table.

The TBR value refers to the tritium breeding ratio, which is an important index to measure the self-sustaining ability of cladding tritium, and is also one of the key design parameters for fusion reactor design.

Considering the effects of tritium decay, retention, leakage, circulation extraction efficiency, and burnup, it is required that the fusion reactor cladding TBR must be greater than 1.1 in order to perfectly achieve tritium self-sustainability and maintain the operation of the fusion reactor.

[Numerical statistics of fusion reactor cladding TBR: MCNP: 1.2701]

[Fusion reactor cladding TBR numerical statistics: MCNP: 1.2897]

Seeing these two data, Xu Chuan showed a bright smile on his face.

"Using the same CFETR neutronics model and FENDL3.1b database, the difference between the TBR values ​​calculated by the two software under the same sampling conditions is less than 0.1%."

"Excellent data. In theory, this is completely enough to meet the operation requirements of the fusion reactor."

On the opposite side, Zhao Hongzhi also excitedly said: "We have mastered all the core puzzles, what we are waiting for now is to assemble them!"

Xu Chuan nodded with a smile, and said, "Theoretically, this is the case, but in order to ensure the success of the ignition of the demonstration reactor, we need to do better."

"So before October 1st, the task of the Daybreak Research Institute is very heavy."

"We have to double-check every solved problem and every technology to make sure nothing goes wrong!"

Zhao Hongzhi replied emotionally: "No problem! I promise to complete the task!"
