@@adem9g In a some meaning yes. It is a political solution . Technical unproven, and very expensive to. More than 50 years ago MSR was tried and worked . That is the solution for at least the 100 coming years. Big Fossil doesn't want a solution, neither Big Money as they are the same. For example a TMSR only needs 1/10 fissile material to run and is about 200 times more efficient than a LWR. Running on thorium makes very little long lived waste . On top of that, TMSR is inherent safe. If instead TMSR was biult ,100 LWRs (todays nuclear) loading could drive 1000 TMSR . The fuel could drive these TMSR for 180 years instead of only 18 months LWR loading. And yes we need 1000s of reactors urgent. We know super volcanoes, will erupt and block the sun.

The word “Hyundai” is the Korean 現代 (“hanja”), which means “modernity.” An exact transliteration into English would be “Hyeondae.” It's a fitting name considering the brand's current slogan: New Thinking. New Possibilities.Feb 6, 2015
The ITER updates are a very necessary and vital inspiration of hope for the future. Through honest cooperation and embracing the possibilities of evidence-based engineering, scientific experimentation and hypothesis testing we can turn humanity from a tribalistic, isolationist bunch of narrowminded warmongers into a cooperative, utilitarian, tolerant, loving, self-critical, curious, well educated and empathetic species that is stable enough to expand outwards into space. Thank you for all your hard work. The planet needs peaceful and innovative projects with global cooperation now more than ever.
I'm a Fabricator and a Machinist and I approve of their work. Incredible complexity. My press break is a lot smaller like 80 tons but glad to see they bump brake and not roll. That is how I would do it too. For the welders, I feel for you guys. Out of position (not standing or in a chair) TIG welding is not for the weak or stiff. Must had been a lot of pulling and warping with all those deep wide welds. Who ever came up with that design is going have a mountain of data when this proof of concept is functioning. I'm almost positive it will be less complex, least I hope so. Maybe 3D printed assemblies is the way to go next time if they ever make a printer that big and with the quality assurance required.
I dont think we’ll ever see things like that being printed; the structural integrity, strength, material combinations etc would make it prohibitively expensive if not impossible. Cheaper and easier to make them like this video.
@@dav1dsm1th Oh. I didn't notice it. 10000 tons. It did look bigger on the first glance. But, yeah, it is not enormous, just big. It has very wide opening and clearances, making it very suitable to do bending on large plates. Heavy press would require smaller footprint (opening), and be more massive, and enormous cylinders and bearings. It looks that biggest press that is in South Korea is 17000 unit, for open die forging primarily. I checked Wikipedia and the biggest in the worlds are in China (80000 tons), Russia (75000 tons), France (65000 tons) and USA (53500 tons, and two old 45350 tons presses from Heavy Press Program). It is interesting tho, as Korea Aerospace Industries, a joint venture of Samsung Aerospace (mostly known now as Hanwha Aerospace Co., Ltd), Daewoo Heavy Industries' aerospace division, and Hyundai Space and Aircraft Company, did produce a number of high tech fighter jets and helicopters, requiring big presses. But considering relatively low production volume and limited export of these products (with exception of T-50 jet), they probably utilized presses in USA and France for that.
The music is perfect and a work of art. Never have I heard such attention to dynamics of individual instruments. Never have I heard anything more touching, truly Oscar worthy. Hans Zimmer and John Williams can't compete at all.

Other than the outer and inner walls, every single component of that huge device was completely unrecognisable to me! What was very clear to see is the meticulous precision and superb craftsmanship of the Engineers and Constructors whom worked on the project. It would've been great to have had a longer, much more detailed documentary on this huge project for 9 of these perplexing devices. Thank you for this remarkable video, and to the excellent Designers, Engineers and Constructors whom made it all possible!
It is a section of a magnetic containment vessel for an international fusion reactor experimental program. The search for cheap, clean and unlimited energy production.
Please consider doing a 2 hour long video showing the same thing in more detail. Can even keep the music style and I would watch, this is awesome steelwork and lots of people really enjoy watching fine craftsmanship.
Most people admire celebrities, CEO's, supermodels, movie stars, whatever. I admire engineers, technicians, designers, labourers that make this happen.
This reactor is a giant experiment. In the United States there are 3 new designs that will be commercially producing electricity before this experimental reactor turns on.
Future in the making! That team of welders/designers are incredible skilled people. Amazing what they are pulling off there! I wish you all the luck and success!!
Why is this not being stir welded/friction welded? I would think that would be much preferred. Also 3d metal printing or weld printing I feel would be very advantageous.
Great video. Fascinated by the massive aluminium plate being curved by the press by doing it in parallel line segments, I would have thought it would be rolled. I wonder how the compound curved piece at 1:45 is done?
It is just computer graphics artifacts. Looks like overlapping triangles that are rasterized randomly. Not a part of the model, but many visualizations use approximations, and they end up on screen sometimes. Could be a faulty driver sometimes too (i.e. incorrect compiled vertex shader for example). Ultimately nothing to worry about actually.
Is fusion a sustainable source of energy or is this another prototype? I know we can produce it for a short period but as far as I know it's not yet energy efficient.
Je sais que les coûts de démantèlements seront entièrement prit en charge par la France, donc il est peut-être possible que le tokamak soit conservé pour être exposé.... un peu à la manière des tunneliers qui ont creusé les tunnels sous la Manche.
How do you know how long this section took? And how does it matter how long they take? It will take another half a millenium before the consumer will have benefits from this project. So just let them do their thing. No need for extra hurry.
Oh definitively. The first few years was probably spend just developing processes, managing timelines, and creating custom tools, workholding, planning transport and handling of parts, CAM programs, testing prototypes, etc. etc. They will make 3 other sectors very soon (2 - 2.5 years).
So how do you convert the power output into electricity? if this is not currently possible seems like it's not a very proper use of 20+ Billion dollars. I think you could power the entire U.S. on about 12-15 billion dollars worth of solar,wind turbine, and battery farms.
With all those nooks and crannies, it is going to be very hard to draw and maintain a TORR level vacuum on that monster. I saw some internal supports welded with fillet welds, and gaps under them to trap molecular air!
I wonder in what order were the hardest problems to solve? I would guess 1. manufacturing steps 2. fixture design to control all the welding stresses 3. assembly steps 4. fixturing for machining 5. Welding 6. machining. What is the stainless steel being used? It looks like it has a large capacity water jacket so Inconel is not needed. A 321 type grade of S.S.?
All those huge oversized round bolt head like things (fish hole heads) must be where all the sputtering plate vacuum molecular evaluators get installed. Such a device will be necessary just to remove every last contaminating air molecule from the space where the plasma operates. Just a few stray air molecules in the plasma stream will contaminate it and cause the fusion to stall.
When I was a kid in the 70s, South Korea was a poor, broken society (economics-was, at least), on par with North Korea, still reeling from the effects of their brutal war. My have times changed! Even South Korea’s cars are good these days, hardly the case in 88 or 89 when the Hyundai Excel reached our shores! Great job South Korea! And if you like listening to music with headphones, treat yourself to an LG V30. They’re inexpensive, work just fine, and give you a quad channel headphone jack. LG is South Korean too, and I swear by them. You’re welcome for the tip!
The vessel isn't made of steel, is it? Making a structural vessel out of ferromagnetic material seems like it would be problematic for what amounts to a giant magnet.
All nice and impressive. The question is once ITER is completed where would they get the necessary Tritium in sustained and affordable quantity, space?
Five years and 8 months until planned first plasma, I hope this is the one that gets us truly economically viable fusion production. Very exciting, I can't wait to see.
If that video was an hour long it wouldn't be long enough, fantastic machining. I think it's a real shame that a project that is costing billions can't find thousands to employ a small film making team to properly document what's happening and inspire the next generation of physicists, chemists, engineers, mathematicians etc, etc. When we get fusion working it will totally transform the world but you've got worse public engagement than the Bloodhound LSR project which is being run on a shoestring budget and has a totally pointless goal. ITER could be the moonshot project of this generation instead it's the butt of "ready in 20 years" jokes.
To all those involved project iter dont let current world issues with covid 19 stop you valuable mission earth depends on you lot! Good 5o see the tokmak finally begin to take shape you can really start to get a scence of the work gone in to it!
What I've learned from this clip:
Hyundai's engineering skills are state of the art...
...but they're video making skills are from the 90's.
Music makes it seem it's about to turn into a Mecha and join the Avengers.

what are the round cylinder braces? stimbolts?

instead of some very crappy music... would have been much better to have a nice voice explaining what is happening and the science behind It...
The Wii music is a nice touch
Amazing! a little more information about all the components would have been nice.
Very impressive. And great video showing the building process!
Bravo à toute l’équipe de soudeurs !
All nice and impressive. The question is once ITER is completed where would they get the necessary Tritium in sustained and affordable quantity, space?
Probably buying it from Canada
Five years and 8 months until planned first plasma, I hope this is the one that gets us truly economically viable fusion production. Very exciting, I can't wait to see.
¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡Congratulations to all !!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
If that video was an hour long it wouldn't be long enough, fantastic machining. I think it's a real shame that a project that is costing billions can't find thousands to employ a small film making team to properly document what's happening and inspire the next generation of physicists, chemists, engineers, mathematicians etc, etc. When we get fusion working it will totally transform the world but you've got worse public engagement than the Bloodhound LSR project which is being run on a shoestring budget and has a totally pointless goal. ITER could be the moonshot project of this generation instead it's the butt of "ready in 20 years" jokes.
To all those involved project iter dont let current world issues with covid 19 stop you valuable mission earth depends on you lot! Good 5o see the tokmak finally begin to take shape you can really start to get a scence of the work gone in to it!
I think they spelled inboard wrong.
MERCI !! les soudeurs, assembleurs venant des meilleurs chantiers navals .. il n'y a pas photo, ce sont les Coréens !!
Is this from the 90s?
does it make coffee ?
