At least, all the necessary parts are already there.
"Brother Xu, I think this depends on how long you want to maintain this."
Fang Xu's pupils suddenly contracted.
The meaning of this statement is...
Before he could think about it further, the researcher next to him shouted, "Professor Lü, the preheating work is complete!"
Without time to explain in detail to Fang Xu, Lü Yongchang said in a deep voice, "Inject deuterium-tritium gas!"
"Prepare for ignition!"
The instant the deuterium-tritium gas transforms into high-temperature plasma within the stellarator's interior, a laser beam instantly strikes the surface of the deuterium-tritium plasma!
In just a few seconds, the fusion fire was reignited.
"A large number of neutrons have been detected!"
"The nuclear fusion reaction is proceeding normally!"
Reports came one after another.
Lü Yongchang's expression was somewhat solemn.
"Closely monitor the remaining deuterium and tritium levels; add more immediately if they become insufficient!"
Unlike the previous experiment, Lü Yongchang's goal this time was to maintain controlled nuclear fusion for an extended period of time.
Therefore, it is absolutely crucial to avoid a scenario like the last experiment, where the fuel ran out shortly after the fusion reaction began.
How is the heat dissipation?
Lu Yongchang asked in a deep voice.
The researcher in charge of monitoring the temperature immediately responded: "The cooling system is working well! The surface temperature of the stellarator is 25 degrees Celsius!"
Five minutes...
Ten minutes...
Twenty-seven minutes!
When Fang Xu saw that the nuclear fusion reaction lasted longer than ITER's record of 26 minutes, his face was filled with excitement and trepidation.
What's exciting is that they've set a new record.
The unease... came from thinking of what Lü Yongchang had previously mentioned about the thirty-minute threshold of the tokamak device.
Time passed second by second.
The thirty-minute threshold passed by with Lü Yongchang's unremarkable expression.
He glanced at the time, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Thirty-five minutes have passed, that's about enough, let's stop!"
With the researchers operating the system methodically, the heating system slowly stopped, and the current flowing through the superconducting coil gradually weakened.
Finally, the flame of nuclear fusion slowly died out in the stellarator.
