From black technology to super engineering - #570 - Chapter 568 Space Dumplings Are Coming Soon

Ye Ming immediately went through the “tremendous” problems in the fields of two-dimensional energy and materials in his mind.

Hmm… Then he discovered that there were many problems that he couldn’t guess.

“What problem was solved?” Ye Ming casually pulled a chair and sat down, looking at everyone expectantly.

Academician Duan pursed his lips and pointed excitedly at the model on the table: “The problem of thermal control in a small two-dimensional space.”

Ye Ming was slightly taken aback, but immediately became excited.

The problem of heat dissipation in two-dimensional space has always been a headache, especially thermal radiation, because this thing cannot be restrained, which will cause the heat of the entire two-dimensional space film to continue to rise, and eventually affect the stability of the entire two-dimensional space film .

At present, there are two main solutions for human beings. One is to “abandon” the space film directly before the temperature of the two-dimensional space reaches the threshold value, and release the heat in the three-dimensional space instantly-for example, this is the method used by rice grains.

The second is Zhou Xiangnan and Sheng Fei’s proposal, which directly transforms liquid nitrogen into two dimensions, making it a pure space coolant. But this method has a limitation, that is, the security is not high and there is a life limit. This is also used in the two-dimensional capacitance scheme.

Of course, there is the last solution—that is, to open up a four-dimensional space in the two-dimensional space and send heat directly to the four-dimensional space.

However, this solution can only be used in large-scale two-dimensional scenarios, such as the two-dimensional technology of controllable nuclear fusion, and it is still in the design stage.

Academician Duan said that the “constraint” problem of small black body radiation has been solved…

Obviously, he proposed a third option.

“Bend the two-dimensional space membrane to become a two-dimensional cylinder, and then use high-speed gravitational waves to ‘blow’ it from the side of the cylinder – so that the heat radiation will be taken away, and at the same time Because of strong convection, more heat is taken away.” Academician Duan’s eyes were burning: “Then use a good conductor of heat to receive the heat, and the heat can be directly directed to the three-dimensional space for dissipation, thereby solving the problem of overheating in the two-dimensional space. question.”

Following Academician Duan’s introduction, Ye Ming also finished watching the models on the conference table.

He laughed and nodded loudly: “Good idea! We can’t solve the heat dissipation problem in two-dimensional space, but there are still many solutions for three-dimensional heat dissipation! Well… and this design seems to be applicable to two-dimensional lithium batteries, at least power batteries It can be used.”

“Yes, but it’s a pity that this can’t solve the problem of Lao Huo’s two-dimensional fusion.” Academician Duan exhaled, a little unsatisfied.

“Hahaha, Mrs. Duan, I don’t have enough hearts…” Ye Ming joked with a smile, then stood up, with his hands behind his back, and the light in his eyes kept flickering.

This idea of ​​”blowing” the temperature of two-dimensional space to high-dimensional space… I have to say, it is really awesome. After all, compared with two-dimensional space, human beings in three-dimensional space have more choices and means to deal with various physical phenomena.

Likewise, it also gave him a broader perspective.

——He has always been in charge of the heat dissipation problem of two-dimensional fusion. His plan is to directly open up a four-dimensional space channel from two-dimensional space, but the design has not been completed until now. On the one hand, it is because this is a purely theoretical design. , without any ready-made experience, on the other hand, the design seems to be a bit beyond the capabilities of the system, and he cannot get help from the system…

As a result, he has been unable to find a way to “send” heat into the high-dimensional space membrane.

But now, the plan of “blowing” that Academician Duan said gave him inspiration.

Perhaps, the redundant heat of the two-dimensional fusion reactor can also be blown directly into space in the same way.

After a while, Ye Ming looked away and took a deep breath: “Okay, let’s work harder, first get out the existing plan and take out the samples!”

…

Three days later, good news came from the Guanghan base that the first set of two-dimensional supercapacitors had successfully rolled off the production line and successfully completed various tests.

Compared with the sensation caused by the two-dimensional lithium battery, the two-dimensional supercapacitor did not cause much repercussions among the people. After all, this thing is not for ordinary people.

However, in the entire scientific community and in some fields that require ultra-high voltage and ultra-high current, it has caused great waves of exaggeration, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a stormy sea.

A conservative estimate of a 100-fold increase in energy density means that humans can easily obtain an energy release environment that was previously unimaginable with only two-dimensional supercapacitors! You must know that the troublesome super electric tigers of human beings are mainly due to their slow charging speed and low energy storage.

Especially the artificial singularity, that thing is even more exaggerated, charging for more than ten days, maintaining it for tens of seconds, that’s what it is.

If the energy density is increased by 100 times, or even higher – that is almost certain – then in the future, it means that not only can a stronger artificial singularity be built, but it can also last for a longer period of time!

If there are enough super 2D capacitors to replace, it can even stay unblocked all the time!

This is a bit scary.

This is equivalent to human beings driving a “teleportation array” to the door of the house. Just need to continuously stuff the cars inside, it can span tens of millions of light-years, hundreds of millions of light-years away…

You can even imagine that if this thing achieves complete coverage in major cities…

Doesn’t that mean that human beings will be able to go wherever they want in the future, just like the teleportation array for playing games?

In addition, the high-dimensional space membrane that requires extremely high energy to maintain can also be maintained for a long time.

It even acquires and maintains a higher curvature! Thus realizing the legendary curvature super-light speed flight!

…

After attending the press conference, Ye Ming left the opportunity to show off to Academician Duan and others, and returned to the office directly.

In the office, Director Niu and General Qin have been waiting for a long time.

“I feel more and more that Kardashev’s division of civilization levels according to the efficiency of energy use is very forward-looking.”

Director Niu watched Ye Ming enter the door with a smile on his face like a flower: “Do you still remember what Lao Zhang and the others planned?”

“Remember.” Ye Ming put down his bag, turned around and poured himself a glass of water, then leaned against the water dispenser and said with a smile: “Don’t talk about Director Zhang, I also thought at the time that the world’s electricity consumption would double within ten years That’s about it.”

“Yeah…” Director Niu shook his head, feeling constantly.

He has been in charge of following up the space project, or to be more precise, he has been following up with Ye Ming.

In the original development plan of the moon, human beings made very conservative plans, and built a plan to produce 300 tons of helium 3 per year within ten years—don’t underestimate the 300 tons of helium 3. At that time, 100 tons of helium 3 was enough Human beings have used it for a year—and it is still the case that helium trifusion power generation has been completely replaced.

But now, less than ten years after the Yaoyue landed on the moon, the three-year production of human helium on the moon has reached 1,000 tons.

Except for the necessary reserves, most of them are used in spacecraft and fusion power plants.

Not to mention the spacecraft, several domestic shipyards have already started the “dumpling dumpling” mode at full capacity. After all, civil aviation could not withstand the torrent of technology and chose to surrender. This means that future near-space flying tools will gradually be replaced by fast and stable spaceships, and airplanes will disappear completely.

As for the fusion power plant, it is mainly because the Commonwealth launched the “global western development” strategy, and began to build a large number of controllable nuclear fusion reactors in relatively poor areas such as Africa and the Middle East. At the same time, it vigorously introduced plants from the blue star that are rich in photosynthetic enzymes .

This can be regarded as the era when human beings have completely opened up the era of “bread on the tree”.

However, such energy demand or consumption, as well as the future planning of human beings…is nothing wrong.

Or rather, predictable.

What is truly unforeseen is the breakthrough of energy storage systems, which will bring about changes in the energy structure and demand.

With the emergence of two-dimensional batteries and two-dimensional supercapacitors, it is visible to the naked eye that the demand for energy in the future of mankind will increase geometrically!

For example, if we want to completely enter the “science fiction era” where we can teleport at will and fly at any curvature, um…humanity’s demand for energy can only be increased by a factor of 10,000 or 8,000.

“You said, if you really want to satisfy the YY of netizens, do you have to build a Dyson ball in the future?” After feeling deeply, Director Niu asked with a smile.

“Haha, if someone gives us a Dyson ball… that’s fine, but if we want to build it… let’s forget it. That thing is just a brain hole, if we really want to realize it… anyway, our generation certainly doesn’t have the time to do it. “Ye Ming shook his head while walking towards the tea table.

Just kidding, not to mention the Dyson ball, even the Dyson cloud around the earth, according to the current conditions of human beings, it is still beyond the means.

Putting down the water glass, Ye Ming looked at Director Niu: “What did the Canglan Star say?”

Director Niu and General Qin came to Ye Ming alone, obviously not to brag, but to discuss the Canglan Star.

The two looked at each other, Director Niu pondered for a few seconds before saying: “They generally hope that we can send a fleet to assist instead of two scout ships.”

Ye Ming was slightly taken aback, then raised his eyebrows lightly: “Is there something wrong with that guy Wuda? Did he really tell you that?”

“It’s not Wuda.” General Qin said in a deep voice, “It’s Haierke, the War Lisi on the opposite side.”

“Helko?”

Ye Ming thought about it and remembered this character.

From Uda’s few words, it seems that Haierke is a staunch regressionist…

General Qin continued: “That Haierke said that their golden fleet has already set off, including the main flagship, and there are a total of twelve warships.”

“Well… and then? How many warships do they want us to ship?” Ye Ming frowned: “Damn, the family is quite rich.”

General Qin shook his head with a smile, and said helplessly: “The request of that Haeckel Lisi is that he hopes that we have as many people as possible, and we must have sufficient deterrent and combat power.”

Ye Ming: “…How do you agree? We don’t have twelve warships now!”

——Due to time constraints, humans have only three warships in the true sense so far.

Qin, Han, Tang, these three “grandfathers”.

There are quite a lot of Song-class ships. The “Dalyan” shipyard has built eight ships in one go, and they are about to roll off the assembly line-but two of them are to be delivered to the Kodo people, and only six ships can actually go to the front line. .

In this way, there are only nine ships.

Moreover, the warships of the three grandparents of Qin, Han and Tang could go into space, but they were not equipped with high-dimensional space membrane generators, so they fought without crossing wormholes.

As for the space carrier “Xia”, it is now undergoing intensive modification. It will become the first “space carrier” for mankind to carry a man-made singularity—or you can call it a colony mother ship—by then, It will advance to the star system to open up the resource planet rented by human beings. There are a lot of helium-3 resources on that planet.

Then someone may have to ask, why are there so few human warships? Facing a big battle, why don’t you make dumplings? In other words, why do you want to make dumplings to produce non-combat spaceships?

The main reason is that on the one hand, human beings believe in Nuwa’s defense system, and on the other hand… as a pure space battleship, it is really wasteful to build… on the earth-whether it is structure or energy system, space shipbuilding and ground shipbuilding Not the same, the cost is much different.

Let’s just put it this way, the spaceships built today are essentially consumables and are purely unmanned.

Why?

Because in the face of a powerful and unknown enemy, there is no reason for human beings to board the ship in person – there is long-distance communication, there is Aita, and people are sent to “death”, isn’t there something wrong with their brains?

Therefore, human beings will launch the space dock project to prepare for a protracted war in the future.

——Once the space dock is completed, it will be the real dumpling in space!

And now… the dumpling time is almost here.

“So, we are also very embarrassed.” General Qin spread his hands, with a helpless face: “What about you? Have you promised Wu Da?”

Ye Ming: “…I didn’t make a clear promise.”

General Qin pondered for a while, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: “Frankly speaking…as a soldier…I really prefer to see the real space battlefield with my own eyes.”

Ye Ming: “…”

“In the future, we will definitely encounter different civilizations and different ideas.” General Qin was silent, looking at the bright cloud in the dark night sky-it was the dock that was being built overtime: “We can’t place our hopes on All civilizations are civilized. So… being able to see more civilizations… well, it is always beneficial to fight far from home.”

Ye Ming coughed violently.

“Hehe, you don’t think I’m a war madman, do you?” General Qin looked at him with a smile.

“No, no…” Ye Ming waved his hands quickly.

Not to mention General Qin, even he, who is blind in the military, knows that human beings are in the field of space warfare… a pure rookie with no experience at all. It is a godsend opportunity to be able to mix with space combat. It would be a pity to miss it.

But the problem is, I really can’t get the fleet out now.

“We definitely won’t be able to form a fleet to go there now.” After a few seconds of silence, Ye Ming sighed: “Besides, before we figure out the real strength of the executor, even if we form a fleet, we dare not send it over.”

General Qin nodded slightly, and then looked at him: “Then how long will our detector encounter the executor?”

Ye Ming was taken aback for a moment, his thoughts turned straight, and he gave an uncertain time after a few seconds.

“Half a year?”
