On the second day, the site of the Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Institute became busy again.
It's said to be construction, but it's actually installation. The unfinished white building is actually the supporting structure of the entire reactor, which plays a role in supporting various components. That's why it looks a bit complicated inside, and it is also the most troublesome building in the entire construction process.
The ability to build it is inseparable from the design plan given by Xiao Yi.
Engineers from Huajian First Bureau, which undertook the white building project at that time, were amazed that if it weren't for Xiao Yi's construction plan, they didn't know how this semi-finished building would have been built.
So much so that he wanted to take this plan to Huajian Group as a learning material.
In the end, this plan was rejected because it involved key secrets of nuclear fusion technology.
Of course, even if others know about it, the problem will not be big, because first of all, if there are no corresponding parts, even if this thing is built, it will probably only become a landmark, whether it can be used or not. And even if there are parts, it is still a big problem to put the parts in orderly. It is like assembling a large machine, and it is also used for controllable nuclear fusion.
Generally speaking, the main body of the building and the device are constructed and installed simultaneously. The supporting frame of the building is built, and then some parts of the device are installed. This is like a process of building blocks, step by step, which is relatively intuitive.
But now Sun-Making Reactor has not adopted such an approach for the sake of confidentiality. Instead, as it is now, it only has a "shell" and cannot see the inside. Naturally, others cannot see what this thing is going to be built in the end.
It was not until the various parts were finally shipped that others were able to gradually realize the real purpose through these parts.
However, the problem this brings is that without the designer Xiao Yi, it would be impossible to install all the parts in an orderly manner and ensure that there will not be a lot of screws that are not installed after installation.
Of course, in fact, at the beginning of the project, Xiao Yi has already been prepared for the subsequent installation. The parts will be numbered sequentially, and various numbers have been given on the engineering drawings. During installation, they can be installed in this numbering sequence.
It can also facilitate workers to a certain extent.
However, during the installation process, accidents may inevitably occur, such as losing the serial number.
"Chief Designer Xiao, something happened over there."
In the office, Zhao Zhanyou ran over and said to Xiao Yi.
"Huh? What's going on?" Xiao Yi raised his head and asked.
"The part numbers of some cooling pipes over there are missing. Now I don't know where the cooling pipes are installed."
Zhao Zhanyou said with some sweat.
Such a thing would be very troublesome if it happened in a nuclear fusion project.
For magnetic confinement nuclear fusion reactors, there are quite a lot of cooling pipes. Whether it is superconducting magnets, vacuum chambers, cladding and other components, a large number of cooling pipes are needed as an important heat dissipation method. However, these pipes may be similar in appearance, but may be different in size, material, insulation method, etc., and are suitable for different coolant media and temperature zones.
If installed in different locations, resulting in the heat dissipation effect not reaching the ideal state during actual use, it may definitely lead to catastrophic problems, and at the very least, it may cause the device to shut down.
Of course, generally speaking, the curvature, length, etc. of each pipe are fixed. When installed at the back, you can basically find the problem.
But this brings about a trouble, that is, all the places that have been installed must be dismantled before changes can be made.
So this matter, although not serious, is a headache.
There is no other way, now I can only ask Xiao Yi for help.
Xiao Yi frowned and shook his head helplessly, but it was hard to say anything.
After all, humans are not machines after all. It is impossible for everyone to ensure that no errors will occur at all times. Such errors are within the normal range.
At least no irreparable mistakes have occurred.
Then he stood up and said, "Then take me to see it."
"Okay."
Zhao Zhanyou nodded, and then brought Xiao Yi to the scene.
At this time, the chief technical engineer in charge of the cooling pipeline project was reprimanding the workers who had lost their serial numbers.
"How can you lose such an important number? I really don't know how you did it! You know that you are here to do such an important project, a secret project! I thought that you have been with me for so long and have experienced many projects. I just thought that you had done a good job in other previous projects, but now you are so careless and careless. Now it's okay. We have hundreds of pipelines being installed at the same time, and it's all because of you!"
"I really don't know how to say hello to you. Wait for Chief Designer Xiao to come over later and I'll see what you do..."
Several workers lowered their heads, their faces flushed from being scolded, but they didn't know how to refute.
They are all workers of the First Construction Bureau and have undertaken the construction of such national-level confidential projects in the past. Now that such a mistake has occurred, they all feel ashamed.
There were also many people around watching them.
"Engineer Xu, Chief Designer Xiao is here."
At this time, a voice came, it was Zhao Zhanyou.
At this time, he also brought Xiao Yi to the scene.
"Chief Designer Xiao!"
The chief technical engineer's surname was Xu. After hearing the voice, he turned his head and looked at Xiao Yi, then hurriedly came up to him and said, "I'm really sorry. I didn't expect such a thing to happen. This is all my responsibility. I didn't manage it well..."
But Xiao Yi just smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's okay."
"Our workers are also human beings, and there will always be times when things go wrong, as long as it's not a big problem."
"Don't blame them too harshly."
Engineer Xu was stunned for a moment, then his face showed joy, he nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, you are right."
Then he quickly waved to the workers and shouted, "Come over quickly and say thank you to Chief Designer Xiao, otherwise I will wait for the head office to punish you!"
Those workers are coming.
Xiao Yi looked at this Engineer Xu with a smile, and then said, "No, no, no, this kind of thing is unnecessary."
He could basically tell that this Engineer Xu had a good relationship with those workers. He seemed to have criticized them seriously just now, but in fact he was defending these workers in front of him.
He also knew that these people were quite skilled in the ways of the world.
However, these things are what he does not need.
Turning around and looking around at the many other workers or technicians who were watching, Xiao Yi then said, "Okay, comrades."
"I want to tell everyone here that you must not bring some of the customs from other construction sites here."
"We don't allow mistakes here. If you make a mistake, you can make up for it."
"As long as it's not a big mistake."
"Of course, don't forget that the most important thing is everyone's safety. Safety is the top priority, and safety mistakes must not be made."
Xiao Yi patted the white hat on his head.
"In addition to these things, I also want to explain that everything we do is just to complete our ultimate goal and complete the tasks assigned to us by the country."
"What I can tell you here is that our project is of great significance to the country. As for how important it is, it may be praised by the country and the whole society, and it may be no less than the first atomic bomb we detonated."
"So I hope that I can work with all comrades to move forward towards this ultimate goal."
"I will always stay here and work with you until the final goal is achieved."
"When that day comes, I believe you will only be proud of the time you spent here!"
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, the workers present immediately applauded excitedly.
"Well said!"
"Chief Designer Xiao We listen to you!"
"Chief Designer Xiao..."
What they were thinking about at this time was what Xiao Yi said. The significance of this project was no less than the explosion of the first atomic bomb.
Once completed, they will all receive praise from the whole country and society!
Such incentives are undoubtedly quite powerful for them.
For a moment, the entire scene was enveloped in cheers.
Similarly, they were completely convinced by Xiao Yi, the chief engineer who was younger than them all.
Xiao Yi smiled slightly, then turned his head again, looked at the Engineer Xu, and said, "Okay, Engineer Xu, now take me to see those sections of cooling ducts."
"Okay!"
At this time, Engineer Xu was also very excited by what Xiao Yi had just said. He nodded immediately, and then led Xiao Yi to the side.
"Inside."
Came to a box next to it.
Because of the requirement to be clean and dust-free, even the boxes containing these cooling tubes are quite clean.
However, there should have been a sign installed inside the box, indicating the installation number, installation area, and installation sequence of these cooling pipes, but this sign is missing now.
Of course, the simplest way is to spray the corresponding marking directly on the pipe, which is also a common marking method in other projects.
However, because this is a nuclear fusion device, we strive to be absolutely error-free in all aspects. If it is spray-painted, it may affect the heat dissipation capacity of a single part, so this numbering method is directly passed.
Xiao Yi walked to the box, looked at these boxes, and began to observe.
There are a total of four cooling pipes, and they all look the same, making it difficult to tell how to assemble them.
However, for Xiao Yi, it's pretty simple.
"Take out these four tubes and let me take a closer look."
"Okay."
Engineer Xu nodded, and then directed the workers to operate the equipment next to them and take out the four cooling tubes.
Xiao Yi began to observe and walked around the four tubes.
The people around were also curious about how Xiao Yi could tell where these four pipes should be installed.
Is it really okay to just stare like this?
But what they didn't know was that Xiao Yi's field of vision had changed at this time and entered Perfect Engineering's field of vision.
And under this kind of sight, all the details are invisible to him.
So it didn't take long for him to find the location of these cooling pipes.
Soon, he completely judged the result.
"These are vacuum chamber cooling tubes, numbered B13-37 to B13-40."
Then he pointed at the pipes and said, "This one is 37, and this one is 38, 39, and 40."
"That's it."
"B13... B13..."
Upon hearing what Xiao Yi said, the workers recalled it for a moment, and their somewhat fuzzy memories immediately became clear. They all nodded. "That's right! It's the pipe responsible for the B13 area of the vacuum chamber. The code should be 37 to 40."
Before, they were not sure even if they had some idea. After all, what if they were wrong?
And now with the confirmation of Xiao Yi, they basically confirmed it immediately.
The people around him suddenly looked at Xiao Yi in surprise.
Good guy, can you actually see this?
And so fast!
It wasn't even half a minute before or after, right?
How did Chief Designer Xiao do it?
Even Zhao Zhanyou on the side looked incredulous and asked repeatedly, "How do you know this? Can you guess this?"
Xiao Yi smiled and just said, "I designed the whole thing, it's all in my head."
Pointing at his head, Zhao Zhanyou looked surprised. He sighed in his heart that it was no wonder Xiao Yi could achieve such great achievements. With this ability, he couldn't even be convinced!
Then Xiao Yi turned his head and said to the workers on site, "Okay, let's assemble these cooling tubes first and make sure they can match up. Other comrades, please continue now."
"Okay!"
The workers present responded one after another.
If Xiao Yi's words just now convinced them, then the ability Xiao Yi showed now made them admire him.
The entire project is so huge and the parts are so complicated that it is incredible to be able to identify where several cooling pipes should be installed in such a short period of time.
This special thing is called Chief Designer!
The follow-up work continued, and Xiao Yi also stayed at the scene to watch the assembly. As the cooling pipes began to be assembled and installed in the corresponding areas, there were no errors in the subsequent installation. All the pipes in area B13 were installed normally, which showed that there was no problem with Xiao Yi's judgment.
This also makes the workers present even more excited. Having such a leader who can quickly make up for mistakes even if something goes wrong is a boost for them.
As a result, the overall efficiency has become much higher.
In this way, the entire installation process became more orderly.
