Chapter 949: Xu Chuan: Anything that can be solved with money is nothing!(2/2)

Opening his mouth, he complained: "But do you know how much electrical energy is needed to increase the energy level to above 100Tev? One 100Tev energy level experiment is enough to conduct at least five or six 35Tev energy level experiments."

The construction, operation and scientific research experiments of the Large Strong Particle Collider are all extremely costly matters.

For example, high-energy particles themselves cause damage to equipment. Many equipment of the collider are specialized and lack versatility.

Once a key component is damaged, it is extremely troublesome to replace or repair it.

But what really consumes money is the huge energy supply required to run the collider.

Did you know that when Europe was short of energy before, the LHC was even shut down before it was upgraded. The reason is that the power consumed by each experiment of the LHC is calculated in megawatts.

The LHC collider with an energy level of only 14 Tev consumes enough electricity every year to power more than 300,000 households for an entire year.

Switch to the CRHPC ring super particle collider and raise the energy level to more than 100 Tev. I am afraid that one collision experiment will consume at least half a year's power of the LHC.

After all, the increase in energy level means that the power consumption increases exponentially.

Hearing the words about power consumption, Xu Chuan couldn't help but smile and said: "For CRHPC, power consumption is almost meaningless, and it is not among the considerations in arranging the collision experiment."

"No matter how much power it consumes each time it is run, it is only a drop in the bucket for the fusion station built next to it."

As early as when the CRHPC was being built, he had considered the huge power consumption of the collider.

Therefore, near the Xiangjiang River, there is a fusion power station specially built for this behemoth.

For them, hundreds of thousands of megawatts of electrical energy, the huge energy required for each collision experiment, is nothing more than what the nearby fusion reactor can produce by casually consuming some deuterium and tritium raw materials.

Of course, even if CRHPC builds a fusion reactor to provide power, it cannot conduct collision experiments every day.

After all, the higher the energy level of the collision, the greater the damage caused by the high-energy particles produced to the detector and related experimental equipment, and the longer it will take for repairs.

However, in order to quickly verify his theory, Xu Chuan no longer cares about these things.

Isn’t it just a matter of spending some money on repairs or something?

For him, as long as it can be solved with money, it doesn't matter.
