The extraction of deuterium and tritium is not difficult. Seawater contains a large amount of deuterium and tritium elements. Even with the current technology of human beings, it is not difficult to extract it, not to mention Nie Yun who has a mechanical insect in his hand.
Because of the abundant deuterium and tritium resources in the ocean, and the fusion product is completely pollution-free helium, nuclear fusion is also considered to be the main energy technology for the future development of the earth!
However, the nuclear fusion environment requires a high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees in an instant, and an unimaginable high-pressure environment. Even with the current cutting-edge technology, it is still impossible to achieve under normal circumstances.
And the only nuclear weapon made using the principle of nuclear fusion - the hydrogen bomb! It is to first use the fission reaction to create a high temperature and high pressure fusion environment, so as to achieve the effect of triggering the fusion reaction, which is the so-called - atomic bomb detonator.
However, it is easy to detonate a hydrogen bomb, but it is not a simple matter to keep the fusion reaction continuously powered under controlled conditions.
At present, several nuclear powers in the world are almost all studying how to conduct stable nuclear fusion. This technology involves the most cutting-edge technology in almost all basic disciplines such as physics, materials science, mechanics, engineering, etc., and has gathered a group of top However, technical barriers still firmly block the pace of human development so far.
There are two main technical difficulties in the nuclear fusion reaction of deuterium-tritium, one is how to create a stable high temperature and high pressure environment, and the other is how to confine the ultra-high temperature plasma in fusion.
However, Nie Yun, who had a mechanical bug in his hand, finally had a super bold idea after learning a lot of basic physics knowledge.
At 12 o'clock that night, after the number of mechanical insects officially exceeded the 10,000-ton level, Nie Yun took all the mechanical insects on the Sea Wolf and arrived at the predetermined experimental site hundreds of nautical miles away from the base.
This is a small island reef that deviates from the commercial route. There are no large islands within a thousand square kilometers nearby. No one will disturb Nie Yun, so he can quietly conduct his own experiments.
The mechanical worm quickly flattened the small island and reef of only ten square meters, forming a small circular platform. Nie Yun took the Sea Wolf to remotely control the command from a depth of 3,000 meters several nautical miles away.
No way, Nie Yun wasn't sure about this thing, so he kept a safe distance.
At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and there was a faint sound of thunder, and it seemed that a sea storm was coming.
Nie Yun was half lying on the spacious captain's chair, closing his eyes to fully control the mechanical bugs on the platform.
On the center of the flattened circular platform, three silver-white brackets with an upper tip and a lower width are erected. The tips of the brackets are close together to form a standard triangular vertebral body.
At the tip of the bracket, there is a small football-shaped transparent polyhedron ball the size of a baby's fist, and in the center of the ball is suspended a very small metal particle, which contains purified deuterium-tritium mixture.
The inside of the ball is vacuum, and under Nie Yun's design, this transparent polyhedral ball made of mechanical worms is itself a super-strong magnetic binding body.
Electric current is delivered to the spheres through three supports, providing the energy for magnetic confinement.
The preliminary preparations were completed. Under the control of Nie Yun, hundreds of silver-white spikes suddenly grew around the platform, and the densely packed tips were evenly distributed and aimed at the balls.
Nie Yun took a deep breath - the experiment began!
I saw that the top of the first thorn suddenly lit up, and a very fine high-energy laser suddenly shot out from the tip, instantly piercing the transparent ball, and then refracted many times inside the ball to form a complicated reflection light path and finally reached the center position. , irradiated on small metal particles.
"Phew! The calculation of the optical path of the laser rays is accurate, the next step is to start!" Nie Yun said silently in his heart.
Immediately after the first laser experiment was successful, all the laser spikes emitted the same high-energy laser beam in turn, and countless lasers converged in the center according to the designed optical path.
In an instant, the center of the transparent ball emits a dazzling light, piercing the darkness and illuminating the surrounding sea area for hundreds of meters.
The small metal particles in the center are evaporated by high temperature almost instantly, and countless high-energy lasers are immediately focused on the exposed deuterium-tritium mixture.
"Zi~" is like igniting a small sun. The deuterium-tritium mixture in the center is instantly ignited under the ultra-high temperature and ultra-intensive light pressure produced by the laser, turning into a small dazzling fireball that slowly expands To the size of a grain of rice, it was tightly bound in the center.
Almost instantly, the super-strong thermal radiation irradiated the inner wall of the transparent ball. The mechanical worm is indeed the creation of a higher civilization. Even under the radiation temperature of millions of degrees, the transparent sphere still shows no signs of deformation and maintains its own well-being. stable structure.
Part of this thermal radiation is refracted into small spheres and turned into powerful light energy that illuminates the sea for several nautical miles.
Most of the thermal radiation was immediately converted into super-strong electrical energy by the mechanical insects, which were introduced into the platform through three brackets. The nearly 10,000-ton mechanical insects connected under the platform absorbed all the electrical energy and stored it in the body.
"Zizi~" The powerful current overflowed, and countless electric snakes instantly appeared outside the pyramid-shaped bracket and the small ball on the platform, entangling the entire platform.
The bursts of thunder hidden in the layers of dark clouds in the sky seemed to be stimulated, the roar was even worse, and the thunder bursts.
Finally, "Boom!" A thunderbolt crashed down from the clouds like a silver snake, hitting the tip of the ball accurately, and the thunder and snakes danced wildly on the platform. The scene was terrifying! Like the god of thunder!
Looking down from the sky, the range of several nautical miles changes into daytime. With the platform as the center, the seawater temperature suddenly rises, and the nearby fish are fleeing, like the end of the world!
And as the fuel is consumed, the fusion plasma confined at the center is slowly shrinking at a tiny rate.
Nie Yun was sweating profusely at the moment, and carefully controlled the next step.
I saw that on the inner wall of the transparent ball, four thorns slowly stretched out, aiming at the plasma in the center in the shape of a triangular pyramid, and then sprayed uniform deuterium-tritium fine particles to supplement the consumption of nuclear fusion.
Finally, after the consumption and supply are maintained in a balanced state, the size of the plasma does not change, and a large amount of energy is continuously and stably provided.
At this time, the dense laser spikes had already been removed by Nie Yun, and then the transparent sphere slowly changed color, and finally turned into a silver-white metal sphere, which was quietly placed at the top of the pyramid with the electric snakes that sprang out from time to time.
The light source was lost, and the pierced darkness descended on this sea area again.
"Huh..." Feeling the majestic energy transmitted from the silver ball, Nie Yun finally let out a long breath!
A look of surprise appeared on his face, looking at the seemingly inconspicuous metal ball through the long distance, it would be his energy heart in the future!
Fusion Technology - Get it!
"Nuclear power! I didn't expect it to be possible... From now on, Lao Tzu will be the most lasting man... "
Mechanical bug: "..." (shameless!)
