My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! Chapter 528: Earth-made boiler room, wonderful use of hot stones!
Chapter 531 The earthen boiler room, the wonderful use of hot stones!
"On April 9th, the weather in the depression was fine, the temperature was -4 degrees to 16 degrees, and the index sweater was worn"
“Today’s weather has finally begun to show signs of a significant decline, but fortunately, the sunshine is still very sufficient, so there is no need to worry about the intrusion caused by low temperature during the day.”
“Received feedback in the morning that the prefabricated house is already a bit cold at night. We must quickly set up the boiler room and heating pipes to ensure that the temperature at night is maintained to prevent large-scale cold incidents!”
"Because of the continuous physical work, the consumption of food supplies has been very fast recently, which has greatly exceeded the previously predicted curve. The estimated time of food consumption has been advanced by a full 19 days."
"However, misfortune and blessing depend on it. After the rapid consumption of food and supplies, the physical fitness of all the villagers has improved a lot. Even the women who had no strength to restrain chickens before can now shoulder heavy tasks. !”
"The tree people are still calm as usual, but they are not in a hurry, and I don't have to rush to scare the snake for the time being. I will talk about it after I finish dealing with Liberty City."
"The growth trend of rice leaf seeds is stable, the sunshine conditions are sufficient, water 220ml today!"
"Today's survival points. The harvest is 967, the survival point balance is 2110, the harvest point is 2.4, and the balance is 4.9!"
"Amassing survival points is still a long way to go, so let's save the points first, find a way to get ten points, and try to upgrade this hot stone mine resource"
"Hey, the sound of the wind today brought Lu Yongyi's voice. Huh, they actually found a big island in the sea and settled down. It's such a comfortable life, but the time is up It's so fast~~"
"On April 10, the weather in the depression was cloudy, the temperature was -6 degrees to 15 degrees, and the index sweater jacket was worn"
"As expected, the temperature still maintains a steady downward trend. Calculated according to the magnitude, it will drop to minus ten degrees for the first time in about seven days."
"After urging the construction progress of the boiler room yesterday, I finally finished the general model in the evening. After I found a way to lay the pipes today, I can start to test the heating."
"The winter wheat in the arable land can also be planted today. If there is no problem, it is estimated that the first batch of food crops will be harvested in the depression in about 60 natural days, and then we will be on the road to self-sufficiency"
"The spectacle has already begun to mold, as long as Ai Jianfeng's iron furnace is ready to produce the first furnace of steel, it can be poured quickly to form a skeleton"
"Speaking of which, Hao Qiang's training speed is not slow. There are various abnormal levels simulated in the virtual reality. It takes two days. Although there is still a lot of theoretical knowledge lacking, in terms of actual combat experience, But it can be compared to a hidden spy who has been trained for a year or two. According to this speed, there is a high probability that I will be able to return to Liberty City tomorrow!"
"The growth trend of rice leaf seeds is stable. Water 300ml today"
"Survival point gains 670 points, survival point balance is 2780, collar points gain 2.4, balance 7.3!"
"No, survival points are really getting less and less. If I don't go out to make troubles, sooner or later, I will drop to one or two hundred points. I have to go out and make a big ticket!"
"In the sound of the wind blowing today"
"The dwarves deployed in the Blackstone camp finally withdrew their troops. The previous repeated jumps, did they really think they could blow me up?"
"However. The conflict between the Bright Empire and the Demon Soul Clan seems to be getting worse, and I don't know what kind of medicine they sell in their gourds. Obviously the Demon Soul Clan has a way to eliminate this war in advance, so it has to be delayed. Such a situation"
"Trouble, trouble, can't everyone be quiet at this stage of development, if you have to call back and forth, it will be difficult if it affects the future business of the exchange!"
Standing on the fruit tree hill, after writing the last sentence of the diary with a pen, he turned off the system daily information, and Su Mo put the notebook and the pen back into his arms.
The cool wind mixed with the warm light of the sun blows on the face. It was obviously an extremely hot summer a month ago, but now it feels dry before winter.
The leaves of most of the fruit trees on the fruit tree mountain, under such a temperature difference and the wind blowing, can be regarded as falling off, bald and bare.
The formerly desolate land has now been covered with neat grass, making it less abstract.
Some artificially opened roads, against the backdrop of such a grassland, also leave eye-catching marks like a clipper across the scalp.
Aside from other external conditions, Hope Village, trapped in the middle of the depression, looks like an isolated island in the sea at the moment, looking both happy and sad.
As if isolated from the world, the smoke rising from the center of the village looks quite different.
"Hey, Director, you are here, everyone has been looking for you for a long time!"
Admiring the "ants moving house" below, Su Mo turned his head when he heard Chen Shen's familiar voice from behind, and then laughed.
"Is this the boiler room and plumbing finally done?"
Chen Shen nodded: "It's done! I worked overtime yesterday to lay out the skeleton, and today I will upload the materials. I will start the test drive just waiting for the director to list."
"If there is no problem, we can try to turn on the heating for the first time tonight!"
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go!"
As soon as he heard that the boiler room had been fully erected and could start testing for water and air leaks, Su Mo suddenly regained his energy, and his brain, which had been tired for two days, suddenly became active again.
The news of the past two days did not completely relieve the mental exhaustion of the past few days.
But after stopping, Sumo did have more plans and preparations for the next task.
Now, this boiler room is the most important among them.
As long as the heating can be guaranteed to operate stably according to the previous design, the biggest threat will be lost this winter.
Even in the frighteningly cold weather of -40 degrees below zero, Sumo is confident that the damage suffered by the depression will definitely be several orders of magnitude less than that of other New World territories!
It's even possible
Pass the level without injury!
After walking down the mountain, the two quickly came to the back of the village along the paved road, which was next to the previous kitchen.
As a well-known member of the energy conversion equipment, the structure of the boiler is not complicated, and most of the technical barriers to manufacture are in the material.
Its main working principle is also easy to understand, that is, hot water is heated in the furnace, and the water vapor generated drives the water flow through the laid pipes, going round and round, releasing heat continuously on the way.
As a large country of thermal power generation, Huaxia's boilers can be seen in almost all the large first-tier cities and small villages with a hundred people.
In the distance, looking at the familiar shape and the mud house outside which has not yet dried out, Sumo couldn't help but get excited.
"Good guy, I missed this thing every winter in the south a few years ago, but now I didn't expect to come to the end of the world, but I figured it out myself"
"This is a good baby!"
In front of the boiler room, more than 30 responsible workers have already occupied, busy with various debugging.
Everything is kept simple, except for the "old acquaintance" red cloth hanging on the wooden sign above, that is, a decent ribbon hanging on the door, which means cutting the ribbon!
"Boss, the construction of the boiler is very successful, I guarantee you with my personality, there will be absolutely no problems this time"
"As long as the pressure test does not cause any trouble, the boiler is a non-technical thing, as long as it is properly maintained, it will not be a problem to use it for more than ten years!"
Patting his chest, Ai Jianfeng with a coal-black face came up full of pride.
As the saying goes, there are three fires when a new official takes office!
In the past two days, he has been busy enough. Except for the necessary sleep and rest, Ai Jianfeng is almost spinning around at other times.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of each project, even the basic shoveling and material selection, he has done everything by himself.
It is no exaggeration to say that Ai Jianfeng alone achieved more than 70% of the efforts in other parts, excluding the manpower construction part, which is extremely amazing.
And this is also the reason why he dares to guarantee it.
"Oh? So confident, Jianfeng!"
"Director, don't worry, we must be professional in machinery!"
After taking the scissors from the person next to him, and then handing them to Su Mo, Ai Jianfeng's face was full of eagerness to try.
Looking at him like this, Su Mo didn't even blot.
Amid the neat applause of more than 30 people, Su Mo strode forward, first pulled back the red cloth of the plaque above, revealing the three characters of heating room, and then waved the scissors to split the ribbon in two.
Wow!
The simple ceremony was over, and more than 30 people entered the boiler room in a very orderly manner as if they had rehearsed well, and began to prepare.
Ai Jianfeng also walked to the part where the gauges were placed in the middle, and began to adjust the air pressure in the boiler, detecting possible problems.
After a long while, as the pointers on the several gauges stabilized and the pressure indicator lights turned green, with Ai Jianfeng pressing lightly, the sound of water flow began to sound.
The same as the test before the northern heating, this step is also by pressurizing the interior, and then forcing the water flow to rise through the pipe.
Among them, if there is water leakage or no seam, the pressure indicator will fluctuate up and down.
And this is also the first step in finding the problem.
"The cycle progress is 30%, the pressure index is stable, the water flow speed is stable, pass!"
“30% open.!”
As soon as Ai Jianfeng's voice fell, a waiting loud voice rushed out, shouting at the people on the other side of the village.
With a bang, the baffle stuck at 30% was unscrewed by the person waiting above the pipe, and then the water flowed down again.
"The cycle progress is 70%, and the pressure index fluctuates. Check if there is any water leakage in the middle section, and report it in time!"
It was halfway opened at once, and the barometer of the three pressure gauges immediately began to show certain fluctuations.
After nervously yelling to the outside, after thinking about it, Ai Jianfeng simply put down his pick and rushed out with his head covered.
"Hey, this index is really strange. It doesn't feel like a water leak or an air leak, but something is pumping the air pressure and disappearing"
Without Ai Jianfeng, everyone naturally turned their attention to Sumo.
Not even stage fright, relying on his experience of playing in the boiler room when he was a child, Su Mo walked forward carelessly and began to make judgments.
“The speed of the water flow is stable, there is no problem, but if you want to affect the air pressure, you can only be”
"The temperature inside is constantly dropping, causing air pressure fluctuations?"
Guessing a possibility, Su Mo immediately opened the system panel, and released an appraisal to the boiler room.
Different from the faint green light before, for this "big guy" in the territory, the light of the system identification is finally much deeper, and it is covered with yellow spots.
As the light swallowed and breathed out, the attribute panel of the boiler room slowly lit up.
【Roughly crafted earthen boiler room (common-: minor flaws)】
[Description]: The boiler room made by rammed earth technology can maintain the heating demand of the pipe length less than 500 meters, but in terms of bearing pressure, the natural uncertainty brought by rammed earth can only be said to be so-so , once the combustion pressure is too high, it is very likely to cause the risk of a fryer.
However, considering the complete prevention and control measures inside and the standard monitoring code table, the probability of such risks will be reduced to a certain extent.
The current quality has declined because there is a hot stone in the 63.26-meter pipeline, which produces heat absorption and release. If this hot stone is removed, the overall quality of the boiler room will return to normal.
Replacing all the pipes with hot stone materials can greatly improve the quality of the boiler room and produce special effects.
[Boiler Separation]: Living Boiler
【Fuel types】: diesel, kerosene, heavy oil, coal, wood, hot stone (reusable), natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, biogas.
[Boiler pressure]: Atmospheric pressure (one standard atmospheric pressure)
[Special Ability]: Locked (upgrade the quality to the excellent level to unlock)
[Heating intensity]: current pipeline length: 341 meters, temperature: 14.1 degrees (full load: 36 degrees, economy: 24 degrees, heat preservation: 20 degrees)
[Evaluation]: If you can keep upgrading him, maybe you can get an alchemy furnace?
Extremely rare, for the first time, the system gave an evaluation that the quality of the item was lower than normal.
Of course, this does not mean that the boiler room had any congenital defects in craftsmanship when it was built, but that some ghost secretly integrated a hot stone into the pipe.
In the unsaturated condition, the hot stone will continuously absorb the heat of the water and reduce the air pressure inside the pipe, thus causing the barometer to continuously swing from side to side.
After absorbing enough heat, it will generate heat again, and on the basis of the previous one, it will produce a pressurizing effect.
"It really is this little thing. I searched for a long time before I found one. I didn't expect someone to waste money and integrate this thing into the pipe."
"If I hadn't tested the properties of the hot stone and had the system as an aid, I'm afraid that in this situation, I would have to dismantle the pipeline again and check it carefully."
You don't need to go out to look, Su Mo can guess the expression on Ai Jianfeng's bewildered face at this time, unable to find the reason.
This hot stone has been completely integrated into the iron pipe. Even if you know the location and want to remove it, there is no other way but to replace the pipe.
However~IndoMTL.com~ looked at the lower right corner of the system interface which had just broken through the survival point of 3,000 points, feeling a little pained, Su Mo still stared intently, and opened the sub-page of the identification panel.
[Upgrade method 1]: Iron boiler: All rammed earth of the boiler is upgraded to iron in an all-round way, which slightly enhances the pressure resistance of the boiler, so that more steam can be transported to distant places through longer pipes, and At the same time, the all-iron boiler material will have a small loss of rigidity. In the face of extreme weather, it may increase the chance of risk due to thermal expansion and contraction. The upgrade requires survival points: 2990 (can be invested in corresponding upgrade materials ( iron block) to reduce, the maximum reduction rate is 2650)
[Upgrade method 2]: High-efficiency boiler: Upgrade the rammed earth material of the boiler to a higher-grade heat-resistant clay, greatly increase the boiler’s heat storage capacity, moderately increase the boiler’s compressive capacity, and slightly increase the boiler At the same time, upgrade the material of iron pipes and add high-strength thermal insulation coating to prevent steam and water from losing heat in the process of circulation. The upgrade requires survival points: 4580 (can be invested in corresponding upgrade materials (resistant hot clay; iron block; copper block; high-quality water source) to reduce, the maximum reduction rate is 3190)
[Upgrade method 3]: Alchemy Furnace: The upgrade effect is unknown, the upgrade risk is unknown, the upgrade strength is unknown, and the upgrade requires survival points: 62350 (can be reduced by inputting corresponding upgrade materials (hot stones), the maximum reduction is 60000)
