As Wu Tong issued his order, the entire laboratory began to bustle with activity. The power was turned on, and the wires, as expected, began to flow with limited current. Simultaneously, Wu Tong began observing the rise in the maximum magnetic field data. Their goal for this experiment was to increase the magnetic field data to over 50T.
Magnetic field confinement has always been the most fundamental requirement for plasma control. The controllability of controlled nuclear fusion lies in these two essential words. As the statistics on the display screen gradually climbed, they surpassed Wu Tong's expectations. In just a short time, they had already reached the extraordinary figure of 66T.
"66T, Mr. Wu, we powered it on successfully. We've surpassed the limit. We did it! 666T!" While Wu Tong was still staring at the data, Academicians Wan and Cheng, along with Elder Cheng, Lu Xiao, Tao Ran, Ruan Chengxu, and others in the observation room with Wu Tong, cheered excitedly. With just this one data point, they had already left the world behind.
Being able to achieve this important data means that they have successfully ignited and are running stably, and have basically achieved controllable success.
"Good data, the coil is powered on normally. Let's check again whether all the devices are normal. Next, we will face the real challenge!" Wu Tong smiled, happy for the successful power-on, but at the same time he maintained his usual cautious and correct attitude. They had just taken the first step towards the finish line of a long march!
"Commander Chu, I'm reporting to you that the Golden Crow Stellar Simulator's orbital device has been successfully assembled. The superconducting coil power-up test has just been successfully verified. We cordially invite you to witness the ignition test tomorrow at ten o'clock!"
As Wu Tong watched the R&D staff excitedly celebrating their success while checking the device again, he made an invitation call! Tomorrow was the crucial ignition test, and they sincerely invited Chu Hengyuan, their biggest supporter over the past six months, to come on site and supervise the test on behalf of the higher-ups.
The Jinwu Project's smooth progress and nearing successful ignition are all inseparable from the strong support from above. Now they are finally ready for the results to be accepted! "By the way, please report to the higher-ups on my behalf. I request the ignition of the Jinwu Project as a tribute to our great motherland on tomorrow's birthday!"
"Mr. Wu, permission to ignite the power is granted. Please make all arrangements. Xiao Chu must be here early tomorrow! He will represent us to witness the miracle moment!" When Wu Tong reported the successful power transmission, Chu Hengyuan immediately used another special red landline phone to dial the number above, and put the phone on public speaker so that the person on the other end of the phone could hear Wu Tong's passionate request in person.
Immediately, a steady and dignified voice reached Wu Tong's ears through the microphone. Wu Tong's smile widened. "Please wait for good news. We will definitely live up to your trust!"
"Mr. Wu, we have always trusted you. Please take the lead. We will never forget your contributions and efforts. Please allow me to prepare a celebration banquet for you tomorrow!" The voice on the other end was smiling, giving the greatest authority and the best wishes.
Ignition is allowed. These four resounding instructions were conveyed from Wu Tong to the entire project team, every corner, and every responsible staff member.
Following this command, all R&D personnel were fully focused. For them, this was the glorious moment that they, the fusion people, had been waiting for and anticipating for a long time.
October began under the glory of the rising sun. Early in the morning, all the R&D personnel of the Jinwu Project were in high spirits, moving back and forth, and making final preparations for the experiment. When the time came to nine o'clock, all the staff were in place, and Chu Hengyuan had also arrived at the scene. Along with Chu Hengyuan, there was also a group of special personnel, that is, the camera team of the national TV station's evening news.
The team consisted of only a handful of personnel, each of whom had been carefully screened and confirmed to be reliable before being selected for this mission. They didn't even know what their mission was until they arrived at the scene. Once on site, they were accompanied by dedicated security personnel, who provided one-on-one support and assistance in completing their filming duties.
It was only after arriving at the scene and observing the bustling preparations that they realized their mission today was to film the new controlled nuclear fusion project. Success would be announced during the 7 p.m. national broadcast, and all preparations had been made.
They will be the first to report such important news in person. This makes the camera team members who came here with trepidation suddenly feel proud and excited, and their faces turn red. They thank the superiors for trusting them to be responsible for this special broadcast.
They must do their best to complete the most important record!
"Power on and heat up!"
At nine o'clock, with all personnel in place, all test results correct, all preparations complete, and everyone's spirits mobilized, Wu Tong issued another order.
Following Wu Tong's instructions, each operation was performed with the practiced precision of a caliper. Electric current steadily flowed through the superconducting coils. The excellent superconductivity ensured that the entire current flowed through them instantly, without excessive dissipation. Once the current reached the required value, the superconducting coils within the insulator's nails operated flawlessly, fully demonstrating their superior performance.
The stellarator's magnetic field, along with the coil current, began to meet the requirements. Wu Tong's eyes were fixed on the parameters surging on the observation room computer. When she saw the set of parameters she needed, her eyes lit up instantly, and she gave the command again with a steady hand: "Begin injecting helium!"
"Yes!" As the order was given, Academician He responded calmly and performed this action personally.
Under the steady operation of Academician He, the pipeline connected to the inside of the Jinwu stellarator device injected a predetermined amount of helium into the reaction chamber of the Jinwu stellarator device.
No matter how excited Academician Du He was at this moment, he was completely restrained and maintained his hands without any trembling, showing the steadiness of a senior R&D personnel!
A steady stream of helium is injected into the vacuum chamber, slowly filling it. Though seemingly thin, it represents an immense amount of energy. This helium is a valuable, special product condensed from seawater purification projects.
As the micro-blog heating device starts, the temperature in the reaction chamber gradually begins to rise and continues to rise until the temperature reaches the constant requirement and the plasma gradually takes shape!
