International Annihilation Theory Organization.
Brian and Novotny were sighing in the office, and at the same time, they couldn't help cursing Amrican's despicable behavior.
The Groom Lake Project project team has determined the next step, which will be to manufacture strong annihilation field equipment using the strong annihilation field generation technology mastered by the Annihilation Organization.
Although the team claims to have made many corrections and changes, everyone knows that the main technology they use to manufacture the equipment is still the same, and the corrections and changes are only slight adjustments to facilitate subsequent research.
The new equipment they plan to manufacture can also be said to be the '2.5th generation' strong annihilation field equipment.
Because the same technology is used, the equipment manufactured by the Groom Lake Project team will be more advanced, and the focus of public opinion will shift to the Groom Lake Project. The direct impact on the Annihilation Organization will be to raise funds to manufacture the next generation of equipment.
It has become more difficult.
Annihilation is supported by more than two dozen countries and institutions.
Funding is shared.
Some countries and institutions learned that the Groom Lake Project would produce more advanced equipment, and they no longer wanted to support the Annihilation organization, so raising funds naturally raised objections.
Institutions in these countries do not feel the need to compete with American. In many fields, it is impossible for them to master the most advanced technology. Even if they master advanced technology, they do not have the financial resources and people to support the use of this technology.
Then it makes no sense to continue to support the International Annihilation Theory Organization.
Brian is troubled by this.
They were already preparing to design a third-generation strong annihilation field device, but they encountered great difficulties in raising funds.
On the one hand, the funds promised by Amrican have not yet been received, and they always find various excuses to delay.
On the other hand, some countries and institutions have voiced their opinion that they should no longer support the Annihilation Organization's large-scale manufacturing of new equipment.
Both questions are related to Amerikan.
Brian could only scold Amrican, the Groom Lake project, and the 'despicable thief' Empoli Kubo.
Novotny shook his head and said, "We have to worry about funds every time. It would be great if we could study together with flower growers..."
He very much hopes to participate in the most advanced annihilation field research.
"We should have more cooperation than we do now." Novotny continued, "The last time I went to the flower garden, I felt very good. Wang Hao was also very enthusiastic. He talked about a lot of things. Bill, what do you think?
Is it possible that we can cooperate in the future?”
"It's hard."
Brian shook his head in thought, "Our technology is too far behind. For them, there is no benefit at all from cooperating with us."
"What if we lower our profile? Like, give something?"
"What's the cost?" Brian asked.
Novotny pursed his lips hard and said, "For example, we help them do experiments? Share data? They can give us technical support, so that we can surpass the Groom Lake Project Team, and we will need to raise funds by then.
It’s easy to support.”
"We can also involve their people, get them involved in the organization, and even lead our research..."
Brian was stunned when he heard this. He smiled bitterly and said, "Wouldn't that mean we become their auxiliary agency?"
"Attachment...so what?"
Novotny said helplessly, "Many of our researches are not innovative at all and have been thoroughly studied by them long ago."
"If we don't do this and don't have higher-end technology, how can we convince politicians to support our research?"
"Without funds, there is nothing."
Brian also understands this truth, but on this issue, they don't even have the right to make a decision, so they can only think about it for the time being.
He sighed and said, "I'm going to make another trip to Germany, China, and Japan to see if I can get support..."
…
The Groom Lake Project team has identified new equipment to be manufactured.
The International Annihilation Theory Organization is also demonstrating the manufacture of third-generation equipment. Brian is running around meeting with various officials, hoping to get research and development sponsorship.
This matter naturally attracted attention, but not many people cared.
The focus of the media is on the Groom Lake project team because they have enough funds to build new equipment.
In addition, Ronald Nolan also claimed that the new equipment can create a powerful annihilation field with seven times the power.
This has exceeded the level-up requirement of iron element.
In other words, as long as the manufacturing of new equipment can be completed, the Groom Lake Project team is likely to master the technology of manufacturing magnetized iron materials, first-order iron elements.
Many media outlets are also very optimistic about the Groom Lake project, saying, "They will soon be able to catch up with the Antigravity Behavior Research Center in terms of basics."
"There's not much difference between the seven-fold and eight-fold rates."
"The technology of the Antigravity Behavior Research Center has reached a bottleneck. They may have begun to worry because the opponents behind them will soon be able to catch up..."
"..."
Another reason why the Groom Lake Project has received attention is that they have sufficient funds and scientific research personnel, and at the same time, they also have relatively mature technology.
Therefore, new equipment can definitely be manufactured.
Then you can look forward to it.
Next, the Groom Lake Project team continued to disclose research progress, and international public opinion also set off waves.
If you just look at the content of public opinion, it seems that the Groom Lake Project Department has produced new equipment.
In fact, you still have to wait.
Three months passed quickly amid the high profile of the Groom Lake project team, the silence of the Antigravity Properties Center, and the helplessness of the International Annihilation Theory Organization.
In the past three months, Wang Hao has devoted his energy to two tasks. One is to create a new strong annihilation force field device using granular metal superconducting materials.
The second is the research and development of key materials for nuclear fusion design projects.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The former requires waiting most of the time, while the latter takes more energy. In the last month, Wang Hao even stayed in the Metal Materials Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences.
He personally led the team to develop the most critical material - pressure-resistant insulation material that is resistant to neutron impact.
This material must be placed in the innermost layer of the equipment, and its surface will be in direct contact with the high-intensity nuclear fusion reaction inside, so it must withstand the effects of high temperature, high pressure, and neutron impact.
However, high temperature, high pressure and neutron impact are not the key. The key is that a thin layer of strong annihilation force field will exist inside the material.
The thin layer of strong annihilation force field cannot directly contact the internal reaction, because the strong annihilation force field will annihilate energy, and can only be used as a safety protection, working together with the inner layer of pressure-resistant insulation material to isolate internal heat and ensure safety.
stability.
A strong annihilation force field will cause the material to become magnetized.
The outer layer of the device is a helical magnetic field, so the magnetization of the material will affect the helical magnetic field, so the material also needs to have 'anti-magnetization properties'.
It is obviously impossible for ordinary metal materials to have anti-magnetization properties.
Therefore, the materials must use a large number of upgraded elements and future elements, and it is best to be composed of all upgraded elements and future elements.
This research is obviously beyond the capabilities of materials institutions, and even most materials institutions do not even have the authority to conduct research.
Wang Hao simply went to the Metal Materials Laboratory and personally led a team of more than 20 researchers. It took him a month to overcome the difficulty.
They developed a dark-colored β-iron composite material named ‘β-iron tungsten-003’.
The elemental composition of ‘Beta Iron Tungsten-003’ is very complex, including three metallic elements and four non-metallic elements. Except for sulfur, which is composed of balanced elements, all other elements use future elements and upgraded elements.
"The dense material of 'Beta Iron Tungsten-003' has a melting point of 7,300 degrees Celsius and has ultra-high toughness and pressure resistance."
"We have already conducted neutron impact resistance testing, and 'Beta Iron Tungsten-003' has passed the test. We will continue to conduct continuous high-heat and high-pressure testing..."
"But we think there is no problem passing the test."
Academician Yang Jun gave a report.
Wang Hao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He was also looking forward to the performance of 'Beta Iron Tungsten-003', but when he knew that it was very likely to succeed, he didn't feel any excitement.
because……
The delay is too long!
‘Beta Iron Tungsten-003’, with ‘003’ in its name, is naturally not the first material to be researched.
Before coming to the Metal Materials Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences, they had already developed 'a-iron tungsten-001' and 'a-iron tungsten-002', but the basic performance was still far behind.
After Wang Hao came to the laboratory, he carefully inspected the manufacturing process and held a meeting to discuss it. Later, he decided to replace a-iron with β-iron and made adjustments to the manufacturing process.
When 'Beta Iron Tungsten-003' was manufactured, the performance was still relatively poor, so we simply used dense material technology to increase the performance.
Now, it's finally successful.
Wang Hao sighed with emotion. While others cheered excitedly, he always thought of returning to Xihai City quickly to continue the research on the annihilation force field supported by 041 materials.
That was the kind of research he wanted to do.
After all, the research of materials is not his job, because there has been no progress in the research, and materials are very critical to the research, so he decided to come over.
I just didn’t expect that…
It took up to a month!
The next morning, Wang Hao couldn't wait to leave the Metal Materials Laboratory. He left very simply, waved to others and got in the car without even a trace of nostalgia.
This made the people who came to say goodbye feel strange.
Someone asked Yang Jun, "Academician Yang, why do I feel that Academician Wang is a little unhappy? We have obviously completed such a major research..."
"He left very simply, as if he was a little impatient."
"If it were me, I would have stayed for an extra week. Such a result... Once this problem is overcome, the research on nuclear fusion can enter the next stage, right?"
Yang Jun shook his head funnyly, "So you are not Academician Wang!"
"What's the meaning?"
Everyone else also looked over.
Yang Jun said, "You guys still don't understand Academician Wang. When it comes to research issues, our concepts of time are different."
"You think one month is very short, but Academician Wang thinks it is very long, and he obviously doesn't like materials research."
"As for the results..."
"Do you think Academician Wang will care about this result?"
A group of people were asked.
They thought it made sense after thinking about it carefully. The research results of the most advanced materials were very important to them, but Wang Hao wouldn't care at all.
The basic materials used in the research process, including β-iron, α-tungsten, α-silicon, α-hydrogen, etc., were all developed by Wang Hao’s team. The final dense material manufacturing process is also Wang Hao’s annihilation force field.
Completed by the experimental group.
The current results are only applied materials research.
Wang Hao studies new elements, new substances and new technologies, and does work in the most cutting-edge scientific fields in the world.
It can only be said that the gap between them and Wang Hao is too big, and they are not on the same dimensional level at all.
…
Compression-resistant insulation materials that are resistant to neutron impact are the most difficult and important research among the material difficulties in nuclear fusion design.
Half a month later, the Metal Materials Laboratory basically determined that ‘Beta Iron Tungsten-003’ met the requirements.
The reason why I say "basically confirmed" is because subsequent testing will be done, and the testing of material life cannot be completed in half a month.
They need to continuously apply pressure to determine the endurance and service life of 'Beta Iron Tungsten-003'.
This is related to the ignition duration.
Although the nuclear fusion equipment can be "switched off and paused" and there will definitely be a need for "filling materials" during the process, it is not easy to replace the inner insulation material.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! That cannot be completed by pausing for a few days.
In any case, 'Beta Iron Tungsten-003' can at least become an 'inner layer material solution'. At this point, the major difficulties in the direction of materials have been overcome, and the remaining small material needs can be solved alternatively.
, research is also relatively easy.
After the research results were submitted, Teacher Xu immediately contacted Wang Hao and discussed the next step of nuclear fusion research.
Then, with a complicated mood, he sighed, "This day has finally arrived!"
He was referring to nuclear fusion research entering the manufacturing stage.
Teacher Xu has long known that this day would come, because Wang Hao's team has provided too many high-end materials and technologies. As long as the research continues normally, there is great hope that various material difficulties can be solved.
It's just a little ahead of schedule now.
Perhaps the main reason is that Wang Hao personally participated in the research, otherwise we would have to wait a long time for "compression-resistant insulation materials that can resist neutron impact".
The next step is more complicated.
The nuclear fusion design phase has been concluded, and we can begin to discuss manufacturing issues later. There are too many factors involved in manufacturing.
They need to prepare for large meetings.
People from many fields will attend the meeting to discuss the manufacture of nuclear fusion equipment. Their plan is to prepare to build power stations relying on nuclear fusion equipment.
This is the general route.
If you are building a power station, there is no need to limit the size of the equipment. No matter how large the floor area is, it is acceptable, and the requirements are naturally much lower.
However, there are also many problems in building power stations.
For example, where do you see the power station? After it is built, which power plants will be replaced? Will subsequent equipment debugging and experiments have any impact?
Also, what is the expected investment? How to raise funds?
During the entire construction process, what institutions and factories are involved, how to solve confidentiality issues, what R&D institutions are involved...
etc.
There are too many problems here and they are too complex.
