Chapter 1012

No light

In the moment when this sentence came out, the whole command room was quiet.

The engineers of Rosatom company standing in front of the console looked at each other, and academician Vassily was even dumbfounded.

"No light?! How is this possible? All the inspections we did All have been completed in cooperation with the engineers of the Chinese side. How could it not be ignited? "

The silence in the command room was suddenly broken by this sentence. Those journalists who had not figured out the situation were even more in a uproar.

Failed to carry out ignition!

This is a huge project worth tens of billions!

If the project can't work, it's not a joke. It will be a heavy blow to the whole Russian energy industry and even affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Standing next to minister Novak, President Wang's face was dignified.

Obviously, he has realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Not only did he realize it, but minister Novak also responded and immediately put on a serious expression.

"Find out what's going on!"

The Engineer in the helmet nodded quickly.

"Yes! Mr. Minister, we are already doing this! "

Because of the sudden situation, the ignition ceremony was temporarily interrupted.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the ignition ceremony was not broadcast live, and the reporters present were all Russian local media. They cooperated with each other to hand over the storage card, which did not further expand the impact of the accident.

At the same time, Rosatom's engineers, like ants on a hot pot, are busy around the reactor, working with engineers from China nuclear industry group and East Asia power to study and discuss the cause of core ignition failure.

“…… In theory, there should be no failure. "

"But it did happen!"

"I know, but reactor tests are all right Only when it's put on, something goes wrong. "

There was nothing wrong with the core. Just then, the engineer from China suddenly said.

"Could it be something wrong with the plant itself? For example, "

of the connection type has not finished saying, even just half of it, was rudely interrupted by lemontov, who was sitting aside.

"There can be no problem with our nuclear power plant!" His face was as gloomy as iron, and the middle-aged man, who didn't smile, went on in a bad voice: "I said earlier, these Chinese people can't be trusted! They must have given us a poor core! "

Although it's an angry sentence, it immediately poked a hornet's nest and made the Chinese engineers on the scene show their angry expression.

Academician Wang Zengguang, in particular, was a grumpy man and stood up with a slap on the table.

"Inferior products? How can you say that our core is inferior? Mr. lemontov, I'd like to know whether your statement represents the opinion of Rosatom or your own opinion! "

"Mr. lemontov, please pay attention to your words!" Minister Novak quickly reprimanded him, then looked at Academician Wang Zengguang, who was full of sullen face, and comforted him with a gentle tone, "Academician Wang, please don't be too excited. I believe Mr. lemontov is also angry, and he certainly doesn't really think so..."

Lemontov raised his chin slightly. Although he did not deny minister Novak's statement, he did not express any apology.

Academician Wang's face was still a little angry. If it wasn't for the contract, he would have gone.

Academician Vassili, sitting beside him, tried to act as a peacemaker, persuading both sides to calm down, but it didn't seem to work.

When the meeting reached this point, it was clear that it could not go on.

Even if it goes on reluctantly, it can be predicted that 80% of the content behind is just throwing pots at each other.

Rosatom will never admit that it is a problem on its own side. Of course, it is impossible for East Asia power to admit that there is a problem in the core.

Now the only hope is that the engineers who are on the front line to find out the fault will bring the ideal news.

No matter which side of the problem it is, only when we know where the problem is can we solve it.

After the meeting, Academician Wang went to the corridor to smoke.

When he finished smoking a cigarette, the boat went by.

At the previous meeting, although he didn't speak, he kept thinking about where the problem might be.

Looking at Academician Wang with a dignified face, Lu Zhou asked.

"How is it going?"

"It's tricky."

Lu Zhou: "have you checked the cooling system and He-3 atomic probe?"

Academician Wang: "checked."After thinking for a moment, the boat continued, "is it a core catcher? I remember that there seems to be an active protection measure above, which can forcibly shut down the runaway reactor and terminate the ongoing nuclear reaction -- "

" yes, we have checked everything that can be checked, "Academician Wang Zengguang shook his head," where can you think of, I will not know? "

emmmm……

It seems to be the same.

For a time, the land boat was also in deep thought.

The problem seems to be in a stalemate.

The condition of the reactor can't be better, but the core just can't start.

About an hour later, the front line inspection report was sent.

The initial diagnosis includes core catcher, heat dissipation system, energy interface And so on this series of parts, everything that can be checked is normal.

Only the reactor core.

This is equivalent to a "black box" for Russian nuclear engineers.

With no knowledge of the technology, only Chinese engineers can inspect it.

However, according to the agreement, the Chinese side does not need to present complete technical details to the Russian side.

At this time, ramontov, the head of Rosatom company, suddenly stood up to send it.

"It's your Chinese enterprise's duty to ensure the normal operation of the reactor. It's written in black and white on the contract. Am I right?"

Academician Wang: "it is so."

"But now for us, the only uncertainty about whether there is a problem is the reactor core, which has not been effectively inspected!"

In the face of lemontov's criticism, Academician Wang replied seriously.

"To correct your statement, our engineers have carried out a comprehensive inspection of the core, and you have seen the inspection report --"

interrupted Academician Wang's Hu, lemontov said in a skeptical tone.

"Yes, you did, but who knows if you lied on the examination report?"

Looking at the guy who kept turning the pot towards them, Academician Wang squinted slightly.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm raising reasonable questions," continued lemontov, squinting at Academician Wang. "Now the most likely problem is the" black box "of the core. I have reason to doubt that the problem is here. In order to accurately identify the cause of the failure, I ask you to provide us or other so-called Russian plasma turbulence data, that is, the law of plasma motion in the reaction chamber seen through the eye of He-3 atomic probe, or the popular point is a mathematical model describing the motion track of all microfluidic elements in the reaction chamber.

At the beginning, this research achievement can be said to be a sensation in the field of physics. Even many scholars in the field of plasma physics claim that it is a Nobel prize level achievement, which directly provides a theoretical basis for a series of magnetically constrained fusion reactor devices such as star imitators.

But for most people, it's no different than a bunch of random numbers.

For example, no good programmer is likely to study machine languages like 0 and 1, because that's the work of hardware like CPU.

What's more, the reactor doesn't light at all. Even if the monitoring data of plasma turbulence are obtained, what can be done to solve the problem?

To this Mao Zi's question, the land boat just shrugged.

"How do you know if you don't try?"

Lemontov shrugged his shoulders without expression.

"Whatever."

Although he was not optimistic about what the land boat could do with the data, lemontov agreed to his request and let Rosatom's technicians retrieve the monitoring data of plasma turbulence.

The data was printed on a 200 page report and sent to the conference room.

Looking at the thick stack of printing paper, Academician Wang's eyebrows could not help twitching.

This is not to say what useful information can be found from it, or even analyze these things. I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to read all these papers.

Sitting with his arms in his arms, lemontov quietly waited for the next move of the boat. Academician Vassily and Minister Novak also cast curious eyes to the boat to know what he was going to do.

In fact, there is nothing special about land boats.

He just looked at the label of observation time, found the first five seconds of plasma turbulence data of reactor fault diagnosis, and then scanned the above two eyes.

After only five minutes, he put down the stack of printing paper in his hand.

Lemontov, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, said sarcastically, "see what's going on? My dear mathematician. "

However, Lu Zhou's next words came out of his expectation.I saw the land boat that put down the report and said in a positive tone.

"Of course."

"The problem is not in the core."

There was a commotion in the meeting room.

Obviously, as an authoritative figure in the field of nuclear fusion, the words of land boat still have a lot of weight.

The expression on lemontov's face was slightly shocked. It was obvious that Lu Zhouzhen could not see something from the disordered data, and it took such a short time.

But soon, his face returned to normal, and he said with a hint of disapproval, "I know you will say that. In other words, the problem is not the nuclear power plant itself."

Did not deny his claim, land boat even nodded.

"You are right. The problem is not in the nuclear power plant. I think I may know where the problem is."

This time, it wasn't just ramontov, Rosatom experts, and Academician Wang.

The first reaction came, Minister Novak asked in a hurry.

"What is the problem?"

After that, the boat continued.

"If there's no accident, it's the grid."
