On the other side, Yang Xu looked at the excited engineers who were hugging each other. He looked at the temperature-time function curve and slowly opened his mouth before closing it again.
Is this the power of a Fields Prize winner?
No wonder the Nobel Prize Committee is impressed by his ability …
No wonder the entire computational materials community is crazy about his theory …
Once upon a time, Yang Xu thought that he was very close to winning a Nobel Prize. Especially after he won the "Citation Laureate" for the lithium-sulfur battery cathode material and the SG-1 superconducting material, he was even more convinced of this.
The reason why the Nobel Prize Committee didn't consider him was mainly because his collaborator's name was too eye-catching. Sooner or later, he would be able to come up with his own results and achieve a qualitative change!
However, right now, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Yang Xu looked at his reflection in the floor-to-ceiling window and shook his head.
Anyone who can win a Nobel Prize is a monster …
As expected, I'm still far from that …
Just then, his drifting thoughts were interrupted.
Academician Yuan walked through the crowd and grabbed Lu Zhou's shoulder.
"Where's Professor Lu? Where is he now? "
Seeing how anxious Academician Yuan was, Yang Xu paused for a second and spoke.
"Professor Lu … already went back."
Dean Zhang, who was behind Academician Yuan, quickly asked.
"Back where?"
"Of course back to the hotel …"
Where else could he go? Back to Jinling?
Yang Xu looked at the two people with a strange expression. He didn't know what they were worried about.
Academician Yuan composed himself and looked at the assistant behind him. He then spoke.
"Go get the car, we're going to the hotel now."
When Dean Zhang heard that Academician Yuan was leaving, he quickly asked, "What about the experiment?"
Academician Yuan paused for a second and spoke.
"Let's finish the experiment for 24 hours first."
Even though he already knew what to do, the experiment had already begun, so he had to follow the procedure.
Academician Yuan arranged the experiment and didn't stay any longer. He walked out of the factory with Vice President Zheng.
…
Mathematics was the language of the creator.
As for mathematics, it was a riddle left behind by the Creator.
There were many things that could not be seen with one's own eyes. Most of the time, numbers were more intuitive than what one could see.
As for the seemingly irregular temperature and time function …
In the eyes of others, solving it might seem inconceivable, but to him, it was not even a challenge.
After leaving the Space City, Lu Zhou, who was in a good mood, sat in the white Volkswagen that Wang Peng borrowed from the local National Security Bureau and asked him to drive directly back to the hotel.
Through the rearview mirror, Wang Peng noticed the happy expression on Lu Zhou's face.
"Did something good happen?"
"Sort of." Lu Zhou said in a relaxed tone, "After this matter is resolved, the Moon Palace can finally set sail safely."
Wang Peng didn't ask how it was solved. After all, he knew that even if he asked, he probably wouldn't understand.
He looked out the window and asked.
"Where's Professor Yang?"
Lu Zhou smiled and waved his hand. "Don't wait for him, he doesn't believe me and wants to see the results. He'll take a car from the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation later."
Wang Peng: "Did you make a bet with him again?"
Lu Zhou looked at him.
"How did you know?"
"Of course I knew!"
Wang Peng smiled and shook his head. He started the car and drove on the road. He followed the GPS and drove in the direction of the hotel …
…
When Lu Zhou arrived at the hotel, he went back to his room and packed his luggage. He called his assistant, Zhao Huan, and asked her to help him and Yang Xu book two high-speed train tickets.
After he hung up the phone, he saw that it was almost dinner time, so he went downstairs to the cafeteria on the first floor.
The elevator door opened. When Lu Zhou arrived at the first-floor lobby, he heard a series of footsteps coming from the direction of the door.
Lu Zhou looked up and saw Academician Yuan walking in with a large group of people.
This included Yang Xu, who didn't come back with him, Academician Yang Zhongquan, who came from Shenyang Machine Tool, and Vice President Zheng, who was in charge of the space station project.
Only Dean Zhang wasn't there. He was probably still in the laboratory.
Lu Zhou smiled at the people walking toward him. He was about to go up and say hello to Professor Yuan and the others, but Academician Yuan had already walked in front of him. Academician Yuan didn't even bother to greet Lu Zhou.
Academician Yuan didn't even bother to say hello and quickly asked, "What did you do inside?"
Lu Zhou: "Answer me first, does it work?"
"It works!" Academician Yuan nodded his head and said excitedly, "It's very effective!"
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing special. By coating the N-1 carbon nanotubes with copper, we can increase its affinity on the aluminum-copper alloy interface. Then, we can cold-weld the material to the contact position between the heating parts and the loop heat pipe capillary structure. This basically solves the problem …"
To put it simply, it was equivalent to coating several parts of the core cabin with high heat output with a layer of "heat dissipation silica gel", increasing the heat exchange rate between the heating parts and the loop heat pipe capillaries, allowing the "fan" heat sinks to radiate excess heat more efficiently.
Of course, this was just an inappropriate analogy. After all, there was a big difference between the heat dissipation of a spacecraft and the heat dissipation of electronic components.
Academician Yuan was about to ask something else, but this time, Academician Yang Zhongquan spoke first.
"Your N-1 material is quite interesting … Is it a copper-coated carbon nanotube?"
Lu Zhou: "Basically, this is the case."
"What about the thermal conductivity?"
"Around 2000W/m · k."
In fact, this number could be increased, but with the current laboratory preparation method, the length of the N-1 carbon nanotube material was quite unstable. The shortest could be on the order of μm, and the longest could be on the order of mm. It was difficult to control.
However, even then, a thermal conductivity of 2000W/m · k was quite terrifying.
After Yang Zhongquan heard the number 2000, he took a deep breath and looked at Lu Zhou in disbelief.
"This material is a bit scary, 2000W/m · k … That's several times the price of pure copper!"
Among the more common metals, silver had the best thermal conductivity. However, it was too expensive, so it was rarely used. Copper's thermal conductivity was second, but it was too heavy. It was usually made with aluminum to form an aluminum-copper alloy, which was a common material for loop heat pipes in spacecraft.
Currently, the high thermal conductivity graphite film was about 10-20mm thick, and its in-plane thermal conductivity could only reach 1400W/m · k. However, even so, it was enough to make all the major mobile phone manufacturers go crazy.
2000W/m · k thermal conductivity powder …
The thermal conductivity alone was close to that of a diamond!
Not to mention the electronic equipment manufacturers, even the industrial industry would probably follow suit …
Lu Zhou didn't know much about the market for thermal conductivity materials in the industry, so when he heard Yang Zhongquan's exclamation, he laughed and replied.
"It's okay? As long as it works. "
Yang Zhongquan looked at Lu Zhou with embarrassment. He hesitated for a while and finally made up his mind. He reached out and scratched the back of his head.
"Oh yeah, your N-1 carbon nanotube powder … How much is it? Is it expensive? "
Lu Zhou looked at him with surprise.
"You're interested?"
Yang Zhongquan couldn't help but say, "No sh * t, you don't know what high thermal conductivity materials mean in the industry! Take the linear grating ruler we've been working on for high-precision industrial machine tools. The thermal expansion problem directly affects the accuracy of the side alignment! In the end, the problem will appear on the product in the form of errors! "
Even though Lu Zhou didn't know much about the specific production issues, he could tell from Academician Yang Zhongquan's expression that the heat dissipation function of the N-1 carbon nanomaterial would be quite useful in the industrial field.
This was quite interesting.
Originally, he thought that the N-1 material was a plastic material with high tensile strength. He didn't expect that because he couldn't prepare carbon nanotubes with small apertures, it would shine in the field of heat dissipation.
Lu Zhou quietly waited for the old man to finish speaking. He coughed and spoke.
He coughed and said, "Let's talk about the price later. Right now, this material is still in the experimental stage. If it weren't for the core module, I wouldn't have taken it out. Once we solve the mass production problem … we'll talk about the price. "
Academician Yang Zhongquan smiled and said, "Okay! I'll wait for your good news! Good luck! "
He originally came here to return the favor, but he didn't expect to receive this kind of reward.
Just this piece of good news alone was enough for him to come all the way from Feng Tian!
When Vice President Zheng saw that Academician Yang Zhongquan finally stopped talking, he quickly walked up and said, "Professor Lu, what are you talking about? There's something else I have to ask you. You welded all the components in the core module, what do you do when you have to dismantle it? "
When Lu Zhou heard this question, he smiled and joked.
"You plan on dismantling it?"
Zheng Xiangdong paused for a second and didn't realize what was going on.
When he saw Academician Yuan's look of disdain, he realized what was going on. He smiled and didn't say anything.
Indeed, the spacecraft was already in the sky. Unless it reached the end of its service life, no one would go up and dismantle it.
Even if it was maintenance, it wouldn't be like this …
