Super Brain Telekinesis

Chapter 73: Design Completed

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two weeks have passed. During these two weeks, Wu Hao has mostly focused on perfecting various aspects of thermal nuclear fusion power generation.

After numerous simulations and experiments conducted in his mind, Wu Hao has finally settled on a final manufacturing plan. If this plan, as envisioned in his mind, is successfully constructed, the entire nuclear fusion reactor, along with the associated energy conversion and turbine generator units, would only occupy a volume roughly equivalent to three shipping containers.

The reactor device itself would be a circular apparatus of approximately 2x2 meters, while the remaining facilities would consist entirely of energy conversion and related generator units.

However, despite its small size, once this 2x2-meter reactor device operates at full capacity, it can generate a substantial amount of energy. Wu Hao's preliminary estimate suggests that it could produce a power supply of 5 million kilowatt-hours in a day.

Such a vast amount of electricity would be more than sufficient to meet the power demands of a medium-sized city. In other words, once this fusion energy generation facility is completed, Wu Hao's base would no longer need to worry about energy supply issues. Even if he were to expand his base several times over, the power generated would still be more than enough.

"Finally, all the design work is completed, and now it's time to begin the actual construction," Wu Hao remarked. Although it took him half a month of non-stop research, the results were extremely satisfying.

After all, in just two weeks, Wu Hao achieved scientific progress that would typically take humanity a decade or even longer to accomplish.

Moreover, the controlled nuclear fusion device developed by Wu Hao is not just suitable for power generation. If utilized as the power source for warships, submarines, and aircraft carriers, it would undoubtedly be more powerful and secure than the current fission-based nuclear submarines and carriers.

Maintaining power for nuclear submarines and carriers, which rely on fission reactors, requires a constant presence of personnel to perform various tasks. They not only have to deal with the radiation threat posed by these fission reactors but also face the fact that the power output of fusion reactors far surpasses that of fission reactors when comparing the same amount of raw materials used for both reactions.

Considering the limited manpower at his base, Wu Hao intends to design an intelligent maintenance system for the fusion reactor. This system would utilize robots and intelligent programs to handle daily power generation and maintenance tasks. If any issues arise that the robots cannot resolve, the system would promptly provide feedback to Wu Hao for his personal attention.

This way, Wu Hao would be informed in a timely manner and be able to address the problems personally.

For Wu Hao, manufacturing robots poses no significant challenge. He isn't trying to create powerful and highly intelligent combat robots like Iron Man. Instead, he is focused on producing industrial manufacturing and maintenance robots, similar to those already utilized in many modern factories and other fields.

These robots are primarily constructed using simple mechanical arms and intelligent chips. The ones Wu Hao is currently manufacturing are also equipped with basic mobility capabilities. Their role would be to clean various areas of the base and manage and maintain different facilities in his absence, so they only need to possess a certain level of intelligence.

However, the matter of robots must be put aside for now. The crucial task at hand is to manufacture the fusion reactor, along with the corresponding energy conversion devices and turbine generator units.

"Well! To manufacture the fusion reactor and other related turbine and generator equipment, I'll need to assemble a basic 3D printing device." Building the reactor and various components requires many alloy metal parts.

Wu Hao didn't purchase ready-made metal parts; instead, he bought primarily raw metal materials and some electronic components.

After all, manufacturing electronic components is more challenging compared to metal parts, and although creating various shaped metal parts is also challenging for others, it is much simpler for Wu Hao. First, he melts the metal materials using appropriate smelting equipment, then, with the assistance of his telekinesis, he pours and molds them. For precision machining, he uses his telekinesis to control tools such as drills, milling cutters, and other metalworking tools, achieving high accuracy in the shaping process.

One could say that Wu Hao's telekinesis, mental perception abilities, and his brain's computational power together create a one-of-a-kind, ultra-high-precision, fully automated machine tool.

His telekinesis serves as the power system that drives the rotation and machining of various tool blades, mental perception enables him to control all the details of the machining process, and his brain's abilities naturally create the blueprints and perform the necessary calculations.

Therefore, Wu Hao only needs to ensure that the metals are melted and molded into the desired form. This function can be accomplished by assembling a simple 3D metal printing device.

Currently, there are some advanced 3D metal printing devices in the world that can directly print finished components. For example, many aircraft and aerospace components are produced using 3D metal printing.

However, these large-scale, high-precision 3D printing devices are controlled by governments, and it is almost impossible for individuals to acquire them. The components and electronic elements Wu Hao purchased overseas are important parts such as print heads and laser devices for this type of printing equipment.

Although acquiring these items is challenging, it is still much easier compared to obtaining a complete device.

Of course, besides metal printing, there are also 3D printing devices for other materials, such as plastics and composite materials. These devices primarily print equipment casings and a few other small components.

Currently, Wu Hao doesn't plan to directly manufacture a complete 3D printing device. Given his base's current production capacity, while it is technically feasible, it would be very troublesome and require significant effort on his part.

Furthermore, even if he managed to create one, it would require a substantial energy supply. The base is currently powered by several diesel generators, which constantly rumble and create a continuous noise.

Although Wu Hao has dedicated a specific space for these diesel generators and implemented some soundproofing measures, there is still noticeable noise.
