Chapter 532: Look, this is the heart of a person with passion!
"His"
"Good guy, this iron boiler and high-efficiency boiler are understandable, but this alchemy furnace"
"It's outrageous!"
When he saw the first iron boiler upgrade route, Sumo was a little moved.
After all, in terms of cognition, iron is much simpler than rammed earth in terms of safety, thermal conductivity, and even maintenance methods.
This is especially true for the subsequent high-efficiency boilers, which can greatly improve the properties on the original basis to ensure that the boiler has higher heat conversion efficiency and later maintainability.
But until he saw the words alchemy furnace, Soma admitted.
I changed my mind three times in just five seconds!
From the beginning of China’s long history, the alchemy furnace is an indispensable part of it!
In the biographies of every emperor, there are more or less traces of its existence, and in the fairy tales of immortality, the existence of the alchemy furnace is indispensable.
Go up to the Eight Diagrams alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun, and go down to the medicine alchemy furnace of ordinary doctors.
The myth that the Great Sage Qitian was trapped in it for seventy-seven and forty-nine days, creating blazing eyes and golden eyes, comes from it.
There are also countless elixirs that can make people "soar in the daytime" after taking them!
In a sense, the word alchemy furnace has completely exceeded its literal meaning.
Seeing it, Chinese people can't help but think of those extraordinary powers and possible wonderful uses.
But for Sumo, what made him tempted before seeing all the attributes was not just the word alchemy furnace, but also the
more than 60,000 survival points. need!
“More than 60,000 survival points, let alone boiler rooms, even if given to technology trees, can directly promote science and technology to move forward for thirty to fifty years.”
“And if given to Certain props used can increase their effectiveness to an immeasurable level"
"Even the opportunity to perfectly crack the mark can be redeemed three times!"
"Now that you can use hot stones to offset such a high and terrifying demand, you must not miss it, even if the upgraded alchemy furnace loses the previous boiler. The heating function cannot be used for the time being, so we can’t let it go.”
It only took five days to build a new boiler and lay the pipes.
Therefore, after carefully considering the possible benefits and risks, Sumo immediately and resolutely set his goal.
To upgrade, you must upgrade the alchemy furnace!
Moreover, the hot stones used to upgrade the alchemy furnace cannot be the current ordinary hot stones, but must be upgraded hot stone mines.
“I now have 7.3 survival points. I can now guarantee a minimum income of 2.4 every day. I can save enough to upgrade the hot stone mine the day after tomorrow. However, considering that there are only nine days left before the blizzard, I cannot wait for two days. We will start again when the temperature drops greatly."
"I can only find a way to let them make some detectors and study the methods of large-scale mining, and then upgrade and launch them when I come back."
"This way! It can not only save a lot of time, but also save me some survival points to deal with possible dangers in Liberty City!”
According to the changes before the last blizzard, there is likely to be one in seven days! A blizzard that arrived early announced the arrival of disaster.
And if he leaves for Liberty City at that time, he may not necessarily encounter trouble on the way.
But in line with the principle that one thing is worse than one thing less, Sumo quickly planned the schedule for the next few days.
Take Hao Qiang to Liberty City tonight or tomorrow.
Because the heavy snow is coming, others will not pay too much attention to themselves.
And when the heavy snow comes, it can also become a natural barrier to isolate others from sight, making it easier for Somo to hunt for marks and bring them back to the depression.
Even during this process, on the grounds that traveling in snow is dangerous, you can get permission from the escort to upgrade a wave of marks, purchase some templates that can only be used in snow, and replenish your inventory.
It can be regarded as killing multiple birds with one stone!
Thinking like this, after seeing that the fluctuation of the barometer was indeed slightly smaller than before, Sumo put away all his thoughts and walked out.
The current pipelines only have trenches dug and laid. They will not be sealed until multiple rounds of testing are completed.
Far away, I saw Ai Jianfeng and Chen Shen walking around with puzzled expressions.
Forcibly suppressing the smile in his heart, Sumo began to measure the location of the hot stone, following the marks every five meters along the pipe.
"It's strange, it's really strange. There is nothing wrong with this pipe no matter how you look at it. Could it be that the air pressure gauge is broken?"
Chen Shen's face turned dark immediately. : "Impossible, Ai Gong, I guarantee this thing is absolutely new. Someone in our village drove it, and I exchanged it for four packs of instant noodles!"
"Not to mention you got it. I haven’t unpacked the things yet. There’s no reason why there’s something wrong with the product, right?” It’s not burning, the water is from freshwater lakes, and there’s no problem with the pipes”
"No, it's a pipe problem!"
Find the 63.26 meters mentioned by the system, and gently plowed it with water a few times below the side.
Looking at one of the parts that was obviously lighter than other parts, Sumo raised his head and interrupted the conversation between the two of them, which was like a cross talk.
“Is there a problem with the pipeline?”
“Yes, you come to see this, that’s the problem here”
"Chen Shen, go bring a torch and let Jianfeng see the properties of this stone!"
For the first time, after Sumo pointed to the location of the hot stone, Ai Jianfeng also discovered it. Slightly unusual.
And after touching this thing with your hand, you can intuitively feel that the temperature of the hot stone is slightly higher than that of the iron pipe next to it. It has obviously stored a lot of heat.
After a while, Chen Shen brought back a grease torch and lit it.
After bringing it close to the hot stone, in just five minutes, the hot stone that had been getting lighter and lighter quickly turned white.
When reflected on the barometer inside the boiler room, the air pressure becomes more and more stable and gradually approaches balance.
"Jianfeng, can you tell what this thing is?"
Ai Jianfeng slowly shook his head: "It's hard to say, it doesn't look like something related to radiation. When it absorbs and releases heat, its speed is extremely stable and does not produce major changes."
"But this thing reminds me of an idea we had mentioned in the laboratory before"< br>
Sumo tried to ask: "Normal temperature superconductor?"
Ai Jianfeng: "Yes, but not entirely. Ultra-temperature superconductors can almost perfectly store and transport electrons, but they cannot perfectly convert and release energy!"
"How about calling me Lu? Come here? He is a research expert in this field and has dealt with this topic before. He may be able to explain it more clearly!"
Chen Shen stood up: "Okay, I'll call over, you guys wait. "For a moment!"
As the village chief, Chen Shen has been running with him every day for the heating work in the depression, except during breaks.
Looking at him getting up and leaving, and then looking at the confused expressions on the faces of several "disciples" who had just been accepted as his disciples, Ai Jianfeng started to stand up and start teaching.
"The room-temperature superconductor that the director mentioned just now, and what I said is and is not, may sound a bit mysterious to you, but this thing is actually not difficult to understand."
"On the earth, it supplies the largest thermal power generation We can build the factory anywhere, as long as it does not affect the surrounding residents, even if you build it in the center of the city, it will not be in the way at all."
"But on the other hand, we advocate new energy and the use of renewable energy. For renewable energy power plants, we have to choose the location carefully. "If we want strong wind, we have to go to the plateau. If we want uninterrupted solar energy, we have to go to the desert."
< br>
“So, in order to completely abandon thermal power plants and embrace green energy, what we need to solve most is how to transport power from remote places to cities across hundreds of kilometers”< br>
"Ordinary cables will have exaggerated losses when transported for hundreds of kilometers, while superconducting cables can transport electrical energy for thousands of kilometers with only a few percent loss!"
"This is also a superconductor. The strategic significance! ”
Unlike Lu Kuan, this major can be studied alone.
Majoring in mechanics, there are not many helpers. You have to get on the horse and work for a long time to make whatever you want.
Therefore, on the first day when the mechanical team was officially opened, Ai Jianfeng passed several questionnaires in the depression and screened out several "students" to join his team.
Among them, there are old men in their forties who are good at handicrafts and are bold and careful.
There is also a young man in his early twenties who graduated from a technical school and only knows some basic knowledge of physics and machinery.
There are eight people in total, and only two of them have fully accepted talents from elementary school, junior high school, high school, and university graduate school.
These two people are also high-rated B+-level talents, and the other six are ordinary B-level and B-level talents.
“Teacher, the progress of normal temperature superconductors on our earth is very slow. Until time travel, let alone mass production, it is basically a concept!”
"Yes, not only is this thing a conceptual object on your earth, but it is also an object whose boundaries are temporarily invisible on our earth."
Ai Jianfeng did not speak, and the voice that came, Lu Kuan came in a hurry from not far away.
Wearing slightly wrinkled work clothes, Lu Kuan looked hasty and unkempt, but his eyes released a terrifying light.
Eye modification is an additional ability of his template.
Its wonderful function is not only to magnify and shrink the objects in front of you, but also to never be nearsighted. It can also be like daytime at night, and it can also collect information for analysis!
Through the analysis of Ai Jianfeng's lip language, Lu Kuan organized his words before he came closer and began to speak eloquently.
“At extremely low temperatures, the resistance of metals will completely disappear and current can flow without loss. This phenomenon is called superconductivity, which is a macroscopic quantum effect”
< br>“The BCS theory based on the near-free electron model can explain the principle of low-temperature superconductors, but only high-temperature superconductors, the room-temperature superconductors you just mentioned, cannot explain it.”
“This is a Unknown territory, about two hundred years ago, someone on our earth proposed this theory, and developed a series of alternative implementation items"
"But unfortunately, until we traveled through, normal temperature Superconductivity still remains in its original primitive theoretical stage"
"We don't know the nature of superconductivity at all, and we can't find corresponding research objects, so we don't know which direction to research is the right direction."
"And those low-temperature superconductors only need Liquid nitrogen can work, so you know, capital will not invest money in a black hole project. With this effort, they would rather put liquid nitrogen in all the places that need to be applied to superconductivity than invest in research into an invisible The projects in the direction are much more reliable!”
Squatting down, using the light of the torch, stroking the hot stone and observing the changes inside, Lu Kuan was filled with the aura of faith in science.
Like the archbishop in the church, people who believe in science will also have a unique potential once they release their concentration without any scruples.
As if coincident with some kind of magnetic field, their movements will naturally attract other people's attention, so that even Somo's eyes follow Lu Kuan's hand, floating up and down.
"The biggest characteristic of superconductivity is that it does not dissipate energy. Unfortunately, hot stone is not a natural superconducting material, and it cannot store a large amount of electrons in it!"
"At the same time, its texture is relatively soft. , the pressure resistance is not good, and it is not suitable for operation in extreme environments. We can also exclude it from being placed outdoors."
"The only thing that can provide us with research direction is how this thing stores energy. , and how to release it, we have not seen the controller inside, how it determines that the heat absorption is enough, and how it maintains the lossless storage of the existing heat before the absorption is completed! ”
< br> Summarizing a theory, looking at the people next to him who looked like they were listening to the scriptures, and then looking at Ai Jianfeng’s helpless expression with his hands on his forehead, Lu Kuan suddenly realized it, and added two sentences:
“In short, this Things are helpful to our research on superconductivity, but how much it can help depends on subsequent research."
"Director, I don't recommend putting this thing in front of our other research targets, but if we encounter hot weather, it would be quite good to use it to dissipate heat for the villagers!"
Looking at Lu Kuan Qingmi With a pair of winks and a serious expression on his face, Su Mo immediately understood what Lu Kuan wanted to express.
Obviously, the importance of this thing is not as simple as Lu Kuan said. It is just because people have many ears and need to avoid suspicion.
"Okay, since we don't need it now and we don't have to hang around, let's do whatever we have to do. We will still test the car at night and it will not affect the plan!"
"Now continue with the previous test. , we have to make sure to go through three procedures before eating, and before everyone goes to bed at night, we have to make sure the heating is on! ”
He stood up and sent Lu Kuan away, and the remaining people watching the theater began to move.
Buried pipes, discharged water, and the test was carried out again.
This time, after ignoring the slight change on the barometer, the whole process went much smoother.
Before eating, the water flowed along the more than 300 meters of pipeline fifteen times, but no other problems were found.
While taking advantage of the meal time, coal began to be put into the boiler for heating.
When everyone returned, compared with the cold air outside, the boiler room was as warm as summer!
"It went very well. As long as the pipe is buried and the temperature comes up, we can try heating for the first time."
After studying all the parameters, write them down in a notebook and analyze them for a while Finally, Ai Jianfeng raised his head and reported the first milestone news in many days.
However, when he saw the calculated numbers below, he grimaced again.
“Director, it’s not good. It may be because the quality of the ore dug from Tieshi Mountain is very good, and the thermal conductivity of the entire pipeline is much higher than we expected. But in this way, although the temperature The upper limit is higher, and more can be consumed simultaneously.”
"If we turn on the firepower and the full load, we can probably push the temperature to 36 degrees, but this consumption will require 300 kilograms of coal per hour. If we turn on the full load for six consecutive hours,"
"It's used up!"
"If the temperature is maintained at around 20 in the low setting, it will consume 130 kilograms in one hour, and our coal will only last fifteen hours!"
and Compared with the steaming temperature, behind the cold numbers is the time that is counting down crazily.
The entire long winter will last for more than a month. Even with the addition of diesel, gasoline, and wood, it will be difficult for the depression to pass, and it is very likely to "run out of food" in the later period.
However, unlike Ai Jianfeng's worries, Sumo, who had already made up his mind to attack the Blackstone Camp, did not have much resources or lack of anxiety in his heart.
Looking at all the workers gathered around the boiler, looking here and trying there, their faces were full of surprise.
Watch them scream happily because the temperature has risen by one degree.
Slowly, Sumo also laughed in relief.
"Jianfeng, don't worry, the boiler consumes a lot of resources. It's not its problem, but our problem! It's because we are poor that we can't afford to support this big guy!"
"However, compared with resources, look! These, these warm hearts are our most valuable harvest!"
"With them, will our resources still be less?"< br>
