Three days later, a controlled nuclear fusion seminar sponsored by Pang Xuelin was officially held in a conference room at the headquarters of Xinghuan Advanced Research Institute.

There were more than fifty participating nuclear physicists and materials scientists, and some of them were transferred by physicists.

In this regard, Pang Xuelin can understand!

Materials science, nuclear physics, and other disciplines are currently hot areas in countries around the world. Scientists in this field have no worries about funding.

Therefore, it is not easy for the Star Ring Institute to find so many nuclear physicists and materials scientists who have a certain global reputation.

"Hello everyone, I'm glad to meet you here today! I'm sure you all have heard that the Xinghuan Institute of Advanced Research is preparing to carry out related research in the field of controlled nuclear fusion. I'm convening you here today, and I hope to hear your thoughts ... "

Pang Xuelin sat at the top of the conference room and looked at the crowd with smiles.

At this time, a white man who appeared in his forties said: "Professor Pang, controlled fusion is currently a hot topic in various countries around the world. The ITER project jointly constructed by many countries is in full swing. This project alone, There are more than 20,000 scientific researchers participating around the world, involving more than thousands of scientific research units and manufacturers. Such an ultra-large-scale scientific project can't be achieved by this person alone. "

Pang Xuelin smiled and was prepared for such doubts. He said, "Professor James, I understand what you mean. Although the controllable fusion project is currently an international research hotspot, I think everyone understands that the high temperature plasma can be controlled. The steady-state constraint problem and the fusion reactor manufacturing material problem will not be solved in a day. Even if ITER is successfully completed, it will not have any meaning for the research on controllable fusion! "

"My personal judgment is that in the next 20 to 30 years, controlled nuclear fusion will be difficult to mature!"

"What we do at the Starring Academy is not to compete with ITER! We will not build superconducting tokamak or inertial laser confinement fusion and other devices in a short time. I invite everyone to come here and hope that everyone will work on the fusion reactor material system. It is also the weakest link in our field of controllable fusion!

Everyone here couldn't help but look at each other. No one expected that Pang Xuelin would not even build experimental devices such as superconducting tokamak or inertial laser confinement fusion, but was thinking about what kind of fusion research?

James was curious: "Professor Pang, what about the controllable steady-state constraint of high-temperature plasma? What should we do?"

Pang Xuelin smiled lightly: "Our fusion reactor material project is only a supplement to ITER in a short period of time. The controllable steady-state constraint of high temperature plasma is the focus of ITER's research. We do not pursue the best in a short period of time. We You just need to be better at the issue of fusion reactor materials. "

Pang Xuelin explained so that everyone here could understand.

Indeed, with the current talent reserve of the Xinghuan Institute of Advanced Research in nuclear fusion, it is more realistic to study the issue of materials.

There is no change in the smile on Pang Xuelin's face, and he will naturally not tell everyone that the Vlasov-Maxwell equations used to describe the controllable steady-state constraints of high-temperature plasmas, the NS equations that restrict fluid motion, and the constraints on a large number of molecules The Boltzmann equation, how to accurately solve the analytical solution of these equations, he has long been familiar with it.

In the wandering earth world, scientists have long given fairly clear results.

Even a computer program that controls the controllable steady-state constraints of high-temperature plasmas can be written at any time by using MOSS and the quantum computer on which it is built.

For Pang Xuelin, the biggest problem in making controlled nuclear fusion is in the field of materials.

The fusion reactor material system is mainly composed of three major systems: fusion reactor cladding, facing high temperature plasma components and magnet materials.

The fusion reactor cladding is divided into four parts: the structural material of the fusion reactor cladding, tritium breeding material, functional materials, and coolant.

High-temperature plasma components are mainly divided into low atomic number materials (low-Z materials) and high atomic number materials (high-Z materials).

As for the magnet material, it naturally refers to the series of superconductor materials.

At present, in the three-body world, the issue of materials for controlled nuclear fusion has been troubling scientists all over the world.

In the field of fusion reactor structural materials, especially for the first illuminated wall, candidates include low-activation ferritic martensitic steel, vanadium alloy, and silicon carbide fiber composite materials.

氚 Breeding materials can be divided into liquid breeders and solid breeders.

Liquid breeders include liquid metal lithium, fluorolithium beryllium molten salt, and liquid lithium lead alloys.

The solid breeder is further divided into aluminum lithium alloy, lithium oxide, lithium metaaluminate, lithium metasilicate, lithium metazirconate, lithium titanate, and the like.

Functional materials are mainly used to prevent permeation of radon, as an insulating layer, reduce the MHD effect, and as an anti-corrosion layer, mainly oxide coatings, titanium-based ceramic coatings, silicon carbide coatings, etc.

...

There are many candidates for these materials. Different materials, different functions, and different processing properties have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Wanting to select a suitable fusion reactor from this, and at the same time being able to carry out large-scale and low-cost mass production, requires countless hours, energy and resources.

Pang Xuelin is not optimistic about the current research ecology of various countries, and can make breakthrough progress in these areas in the next few decades.

But he is not the same. In the wandering earth world, although he could not write down the manufacturing methods and production processes of the many materials used in the nuclear fusion reactor, he was very clear about which material was needed for each component.

This alone, lightnovelpub.net, can save countless hours of time for researchers at the Starring Institute.

Next, Pang Xuelin divided the audience into seven research groups, which corresponded to the structural materials, fusion material, functional materials, coolants, low atomic number materials, high atomic number materials, and superconducting magnet materials of the fusion reactor cladding. These seven big groups.

For each group, Pang Xuelin clearly gave two to three materials as key research projects.

Although the scientists present are somewhat strange to Pang Xuelin's requirements, the other party is a face-off and an investor in this project, and they can only choose to agree.

It took a whole day for Pang Xuelin to determine the overall research direction of the newly established Fusion Materials Research Institute of the Xinghuan Institute of Advanced Studies, and then the conference was concluded.

As soon as Pang Xuelin came out of the conference room, Cheng Xin hurriedly greeted him and said, "Professor Pang, I just got the news, and Dr. Luo Ji asked PDC to hold a face-to-face plan hearing not long ago!"
