Chapter 1013

The whole conference room was quiet.

There's no problem with the core, no problem with the plant

Is the problem with the external grid?

When he heard this, lemontov laughed.

"You mean that there is no problem with the battery, and there is no problem with the battery slot. The problem is the Russian power system? Can't accept the high technology of nuclear fusion? This is the funniest joke I've ever heard. "

"Is it funny?" Lu Zhou said

"Academician Lu Zhou, I know you are an excellent mathematician. Even in the nearby city of St. Petersburg, hundreds or even thousands of your colleagues are waiting for your report, but I have to say that you are a pure layman in the field of electricity."

Lu Zhou nodded his head: "it's true that I don't know the power grid system of Russia at all, but I have enough evidence to prove my point."

Lemontov didn't speak, just holding his arms and waiting for the boat to continue.

Obviously, it's not just lemontov. The whole conference room, including Academician Wang, is waiting.

Not at this time, Lu zhouqing cleared his throat and continued.

"When designing the core, we usually add a lot of insurance measures to ensure safety. For example, the active shutdown mechanism on the core catcher, such as the temperature detection device on the cooling system, can actively suspend the fusion reaction in case of major accident risk in the core. These insurance measures will not only shut down the core in case of core failure, but also predict the possible risk of the core in some special cases, and terminate the ongoing nuclear reaction before everything is irreparable. "

Lemontov snorted.

"For example?"

Lu Zhou: "for example, when the external power grid can't bear or consume the electricity generated by nuclear fusion."

"There is no such problem at all," minister Novak, standing next to him, interposed, "in order to ignite today, we have adjusted the work plan of other thermal power facilities, and even re planned the power consumption in several areas of St. Petersburg with large power consumption. As long as the core runs successfully, we will immediately reduce the unit efficiency of a large thermal power station nearby. When the output power of the core reaches 10%, we will shut down units 1 and 2 of the Leningrad nuclear power plant 80 kilometers west of St. Petersburg We have a complete set of plans to adjust our energy structure. "

Lu Zhou: "but have you considered another possibility?"

Minister Novak was slightly shocked. "What's the possibility?"

"In general, even if the protection mechanism of AGC system is triggered, not a little power can not enter the power grid of St. Petersburg, but now it is..." Looking at minister Novak, Lu Zhou continued, "your power grid system doesn't seem to want even a little energy from Helios."

"How could it be?" said lemontov, chuckling? Are you mocking our power sector experts? Or does our power department have an insider? Do you mean to say that? "

"If you think of it as ridicule, I can't help it. As for whether there are insiders or not, it's not my field of expertise, "he continued, shrugging his shoulders and expressionless," but in fact, your energy management system The so-called EMS seems to have quite serious compatibility problems with our Helios fusion power plant. "

"I'm not sure whether this is a system bug or an artificial one. In a word, the electric energy produced from the core can't be successfully input into the power grid, and it can't be done at all, which triggers the active protection mechanism of our core. By analyzing the data of plasma turbulence, I can tell you this responsibly. "

"I can even say that without this protection mechanism, the problem we are facing today is not that there is no ignition, but that there is a major nuclear accident."

It is still very dangerous for hundreds of millions of degree plasma to melt through the core.

At least for people at the plant

The expression on minister Novak's face changed instantly when he heard that.

Lemontov's face was not very good either, apparently frightened by the nuclear accident.

However, even though he was shocked, he did not believe that the analysis of the plasma turbulence data could be completed in such a short time.

It is clear that this man is only using his academic authority to plead guilty to his compatriots.

With his teeth clenched, lemontov said, "well Don't be alarmist there. Who knows if you're making up what you're talking about -- "

" Mr. lemontov. "

Lu Zhou suddenly looked at him. The hairy man was slightly stunned and frowned.

“…… What's the matter? "

Staring at lemontov, Lu Zhou asked earnestly, "in case I confirm first, do you really want us to solve this problem?""What do you mean by that?" Lemontov's expression was a little flustered, but he soon calmed down. "It's about tens of billions of investment, and I'm Rosatom's head of this project! Who do you think is the most anxious person now? "

"Very well," Lu Zhou nodded, looking like minister Novak, "you can arrange several engineers to check whether I am right or not. I believe it should not be difficult."

Minister Novak bowed cautiously.

"I'll let someone do it."

Pushing aside the chair and standing up, the boat looked at lemontov, who had been staring at him, and its index finger tapped gently on the 200 page data of plasma turbulence.

"You don't know how many copies of this I've seen."

"Now I've told you where the problem is. If you really want to solve the problem, try to find a solution as I said."

"If you just want an accident appraisal assignment, of course, I can show you my calculation process on site, but I'm not sure if you can understand your IQ."

"You!"

Lemontov got up angrily, but under the pressure of the vision of Mr. Maxim standing at the door, he finally loosened his fist and sat back.

According to Russian tradition, they should have a fight at this time.

But for the sake of life safety, he felt that he should restrain himself.

……

The ignition ceremony was put on hold.

According to Lu Zhou's proposal, people from the Russian Ministry of energy have contacted UPR and started to investigate potential hidden dangers in the power grid.

As for whether the problem is in the power grid

The probability is as high as 95%.

However, it will take at least a week for him to make a serious accident analysis and prove his experience and conjecture mathematically.

Instead of spending a week doing such meaningless things, it's better to go directly to the grid to find out what the problem is.

After coming out of the nuclear power plant, instead of returning directly to the hotel, Lu Zhou found a Chinese restaurant nearby and had a meal with Academician Wang.

At the dinner table, Academician Wang suddenly sighed and said with some emotion.

"To be honest, it's very strange. As for lemontov's attitude, I'm a little skeptical that Rosatom has directed and acted on it. "

The chopsticks in his hand stopped. Lu Zhou looked at Academician Wang strangely.

"What is the good for them?"

Although he doesn't know much about business, he knows better or worse.

This kind of huge investment in public service projects is often under the pressure of loans from many banks. Even if it is put into use one day later, it will be hundreds of thousands or even millions of losses.

Hearing the question of Lu Zhou, Wang explained patiently.

"This is tens of billions of orders, not just loans, but insurance policies. If there is a problem with the core, they can not only claim compensation from the insurance company, but also pressure us to provide complete or partial fusion technology. After all, what has the final say is no third party testing organization. Whether it is a core or a nuclear power plant, the standard is not qualified.

in short, the nuclear power group and East Asia power are like a retail giant who is a supermarket chain. It is the monopoly. Now the neighbours intend to open a branch at home, how to decorate the supermarket, purchase goods, or even put the goods on the rack. Has the final say from the head Office of China.

Because the products on China's side are necessary for the countries concerned, in the game at the national level, the countries concerned have made certain concessions to many places that could not be conceded, so as to ensure that the products can enter China.

But such concessions are not without preconditions.

The biggest prerequisite for nuclear facilities is safety.

Especially for Russia, which is extremely sensitive to nuclear accidents.

If nothing happens, it's best. Hello, I'm good. Hello, everyone. Enjoy the dividends of clean energy and share the power of knowledge to change the world.

However, now there are serious quality problems in the products, and all the hidden dangers are exposed.

, for example, the most dangerous thing is that the core can not be successfully started. There is no organization in Russia that can conduct quality inspection of the products. Has all the core has the final say of East Asian power that sells core power.

If Rosatom doesn't seize the opportunity to blackmail them, it will be strange. Even in terms of means, they are "restrained".

"Could they have been inspired by the Russian authorities?" asked the boat, frowning

"It's not likely, but even if they do, it's estimated that the Russian authorities will also meet with the opportunity to act. First, test our response and then decide whether to connive. After all, Rosatom, the oligarch in the nuclear power field, still has a lot of influence in Russian politics. And ten thousand steps back, their energy sector is definitely towards their own people. "Speaking of this, Academician Wang Zengguang also sighed, "I didn't expect that it would be a bad start. This is a country with normal diplomatic relations with us. If we are on the other side of the sea, we don't know what moths are waiting for us."

If maozi is compared to a rogue, the one on the other side of the sea is a rogue in a suit. Moreover, there is a kind of culture that can arm itself with knowledge.

However, this is also a wake-up call for East Asia power, which just went abroad.

Even a strategic ally, even a project that the country has come out to talk about, can't be completely taken lightly. For the small countries in Southeast Asia, they are giants backed by superpowers, but for the other big countries, they are giants, but also a piece of fat that can walk. Everyone wants to take a bite.

Next time, they will include the grid system to be connected into the project acceptance inspection.

Of course, this may involve national security issues and some secrets that are inconvenient to disclose, and the parties may not be willing to cooperate.

But even so, it's better than it is now.

He touched Lu Zhou's glass and killed it, said Academician Wang sincerely.

"Today, thanks for your help."

Lu Zhou said with a smile, "you're welcome. I'm also a shareholder of East Asia power, at least."

"You're a big dog. You've got to show off your wealth. You've invited this wine!"

He said with a smile and scolding. Looking at the innocent boat on his face, Academician Wang paused for a while and continued in a serious tone.

"I'll contact the domestic side later and ask what their handling opinions are."

"Whether or not the final problem lies in the external power grid, we can't transfer the detection technology to them. This place can't be opened at all. Even if we export controllable fusion technology, we have to guarantee the technology leading for more than ten years."

Lu Zhou nodded his head and continued, "what can I do for you?"

"No, we've already troubled you too much," said Academician Wang Zengguang with a smile as he looked at the boat. "In the rest of the time, you'd better attend your international mathematician conference safely. If you can't catch up with the ignition ceremony, you can do it again. Anyway, it's not because of us."

"As for other things, let us do it!"
