Iron Man Ark Reactor Come True? New Chinese Generation Of “Artificial Sun” Successful Discharge Concept Stocks At A Glance
Science and Technology Innovation Board
“Kechuang Board Daily” (Shanghai, researcher He Luheng), according to national media reports, at 14:02 on December 4, 2020, a new generation of “artificial sun” device: China’s circulating device No. 2M (HL-2M)) The completion and completion of the first discharge in Chengdu indicates that China has independently mastered the technology of design, construction and operation of large-scale advanced tokamak devices, laying a solid foundation for the design and China’s independent construction of nuclear fusion reactors.
The “artificial sun” is understood to be short for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) project, which was founded in 1985. The plan is to build the first experimental fusion reactor that can carry out large-scale fusion reactions. The results of its implementation will determine whether humans can rapidly. Large-scale, local use of fusion energy can affect humanity’s fundamental solving process of energy problems.
In May 2006, with the approval of the State Council, the Chinese ITER Negotiation Team, on behalf of the Chinese government, jointly initialed the ITER plan agreement with the European Union, India, Japan, South Korea, Russia and the United States. United. The construction of the project also marked that China has actually participated in the ITER plan.
In China’s new generation of “artificial sun” facilities, the “tokamak” that plays a key role is a toroidal container that uses magnetic confinement to achieve controlled nuclear fusion. In the center is a ring-shaped vacuum chamber with an outer winding. The coil, driven by restricted electromagnetic waves, creates an environment and an ultra-high temperature for the fusion of deuterium and tritium, and realizes the human control of the fusion reaction.
Compared to other controlled nuclear fusion methods, tokamak has many advantages. Therefore, after a breakthrough in the 1960s, there has been a wave of excitement in the world. Countries have successively built or rebuilt a batch of large Toka Mark device. Interestingly, the Ark reactor in Tony Stark’s chest in the Marvel movie “Iron Man” was once thought to be adapted from a tokamak device.
According to media reports, China Circulator No. 2M device is currently the highest and highest parameter advanced tokamak device in China. Adopts more advanced control structure and methods. The volume of plasma is more than double that of existing household devices. The plasma current capacity increases to more than 2.5 megaamps, and the plasma ion temperature can reach 150 million degrees, which can achieve high density, high specific pressure and high starting current operation .
It is worth mentioning that in the “artificial sun” project,Some support pieces are provided by national companies. According to the company’s response on the interactive platform, “Science Innovation Board Daily” organizes the following:
China National Nuclear Corporation: responsible for the design and construction of the new generation of “artificial sun” devices, China Circulator device No. 2M (HL-2M), and has successively developed various types of confinement fusion research devices magnetic, and has built China Circulator No. 1 and New One Three major scientific research facilities of national importance, including No. 2 and No. 2 A devices.
Dongfang electric: In June 2019, the company successfully delivered the main magnetic coil center column for China’s new generation nuclear fusion experimental device, China Circulator No. 2M (HL-2M) device in Chengdu, becoming the first national manufacturer of large magnetic coils for circulating devices. Deal.
China Nuclear Construction: The subsidiary of China Nuclear Industry 23rd Construction Co., Ltd. participated in the “artificial sun” project and is one of the member units of the Sino-French consortium that won the tender for the project. In August 2019, the Sino-French Consortium won the tender for the project’s TAC1 project. On September 30, 2019, the Sino-French consortium led by the ITER organization and the National Nuclear Corporation of China formally signed the ITER International Thermonuclear Fusion Experimental Reactor Main Engine Installation Contract (TAC1) in Beijing.
Electric baili: The company’s subsidiary Liaoning Rongxin Xingye Power Technology Co., Ltd. has provided reactive power compensation equipment for the International Thermonuclear Fusion Experimental Reactor (ITER) project.
