My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! Chapter 529: Look, this is the hot heart!
Chapter 532 Look, this is the hot heart!
“Hiss”
"Good guy, this iron boiler and high-efficiency boiler can still be understood, but this alchemy furnace"
"It's outrageous!"
When he saw the upgrade route of the first iron boiler, Sumo was moved.
After all, in the cognition, iron is much simpler than rammed earth in terms of safety, thermal conductivity, and even maintenance methods.
The latter is especially true for the high-efficiency boiler, which can greatly improve the attributes on the original basis, ensuring that the boiler has higher heat conversion efficiency and later maintenance.
But until he saw the word alchemy furnace, Su Mo admitted.
I changed my mind three times in just five seconds!
From the long history of China, the alchemy furnace is an indispensable part of it!
In the biographies of every emperor, there are more or less shadows of its existence, and in the fairy tales of cultivating immortals, the existence of the alchemy furnace is even more indispensable.
Up to the gossip alchemy furnace of the Taishang Laojun, down to the alchemy furnace of ordinary doctors.
The myth that the Monkey King was trapped in it for seventy-seven forty-nine days, and the golden eyes were cast comes from it.
There are also countless elixir that can make people "fly up in the daytime" after taking it!
In a sense, the word alchemy furnace has completely exceeded his literal meaning.
Seeing it, the Chinese people will involuntarily think of those extraordinary powers and possible magical effects.
But for Sumo, it is not just the word alchemy furnace that can make him fall in love before seeing all the attributes
Up to more than 60,000 survival point requirements!
"More than 60,000 survival points, not to mention the boiler room, even the technology tree, can directly push technology forward for 30 to 50 years"
"And if you give some props to use, it can increase its effectiveness to an inestimable level"
"Even the chance to perfectly crack the mark can be exchanged for three times!"
"Now that hot stones can be used to offset such a high terrifying demand, we must not miss it. Even if the upgraded alchemy furnace loses the heating function of the previous boiler, it cannot be used for the time being, so we must not let it go!"
It only took five days to build a new boiler and lay pipes.
Therefore, after thinking about the possible benefits and the risks to be taken out, Su Mo immediately and resolutely set his goal.
Upgrade, you must upgrade the alchemy furnace!
Moreover, the hot stone used to upgrade the alchemy furnace cannot be the current ordinary hot stone, it has to be the upgraded hot stone mine.
"I now have 7.3 survival points, and now I can guarantee a daily income of 2.4. The next morning, I can save enough to upgrade the hot stone mine. However, considering that there are only nine days left before the blizzard, I can't wait for two days before the big drop in temperature Let's start again"
"I can only find a way to let them make some detectors first, study the method of large-scale mining, and upgrade and mount the horse when I come back!"
"This can not only save a lot of time, but also save me some survival points to deal with the dangers that may be encountered in Liberty City!"
According to the changes before the last blizzard, seven days later, it is very likely that there will be an early blizzard announcing the arrival of disaster.
And if he left for Liberty City at that time, although he might not necessarily encounter trouble on the way.
But in the spirit of doing more than doing less, Su Mo quickly planned the schedule for the next few days.
Tonight, or tomorrow, take Hao Qiang to Liberty City.
Because the heavy snow is coming, other people will not pay too much attention to themselves.
And when the heavy snow comes completely, it can also become a natural barrier to block the sight of others, and facilitate Sumo's hunting marks and bringing them back to the depression.
Even during this process, they can upgrade a wave of imprints with the permission of the guards on the grounds that it is dangerous to travel in snowy weather, buy some templates that can only be used in snowy weather, and enrich the inventory.
It can be regarded as serving multiple purposes in one fell swoop!
Thinking in this way, seeing that the ups and downs of the barometer were indeed slightly smaller than before, Su Mo put away all his thoughts and walked out.
The current pipeline is just a trench dug and laid, and it will not be sealed until multiple rounds of testing are completed.
From far away, I saw Ai Jianfeng and Chen Shen walking back and forth with puzzled expressions on their faces.
Forcibly holding back the smile in his heart, there will be a mark every five meters along the pipeline, and Sumo began to measure the position of the hot stone.
"It's weird, it's really weird, no matter how you look at this pipe, there is nothing wrong with it. Could it be that the barometer is broken?"
Chen Shen immediately turned dark: "Impossible, Ai Gong, I can guarantee that this thing is definitely new. Someone from our village drove it, and I exchanged it with four packs of instant noodles!"
"What's more, when you got it, I didn't unpack it. It doesn't make sense that it's something that has problems in production, right?"
Now it's Ai Jianfeng's turn to be in trouble: "It's not the problem of the barometer, we haven't fired the boiler, and the water is also from the freshwater lake, and the pipes are fine"
"No, it's a plumbing problem!"
Find the 63.26 meters that the system said, at the position below the side, after gently planing a few times with water.
Looking at one of the parts which was obviously lighter than the others, Su Mo raised his head and interrupted the conversation between the two as if they were talking about cross talk.
"Problem with plumbing?"
"Yes, you look here, that's the problem here"
"Chen Shen, go and bring a torch and let Jian Feng see the nature of this stone!"
Immediately after Sumo pointed to the location where the hot stone existed, Ai Jianfeng also noticed something unusual.
And after touching this thing with your hand, you can intuitively feel that the temperature of the hot stone is slightly higher than the iron pipe next to it, which obviously has 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, which had been getting shallower before, quickly turned white.
The reaction to the barometer inside the boiler room is that the air pressure is becoming more and more stable and gradually tends to balance.
"Jianfeng, can you tell what this thing is from?"
Ai Jianfeng shook his head slowly: "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 it hasn't changed much!"
"But this thing reminds me of an idea we had mentioned in the lab before"
Sumo tried to ask: "Normal temperature superconductor?"
Ai Jianfeng: "Yes, but not entirely. Ultra-temperature superconductors can store and transport electrons almost perfectly, but they cannot achieve perfect conversion and release of energy!"
"Why don't you call Lu Kuan over? He is an expert in this field, and he has also been involved in this field in previous projects. He may explain it more clearly!"
Chen Shen got up: "Okay, I'll call in the past, you wait a moment!"
It is related to the heating work in the depression. As the head of the village, Chen Shen has been running with him every day recently, except for the rest time, he is constantly spinning.
Watching him get up and leave, and then looking at the puzzled faces of several "personal disciples" who had just joined the sect standing around him, he organized his words, and Ai Jianfeng began to stand up and start giving lectures.
"The room-temperature superconductor mentioned by the director just now, and what I said is yes or no, I think you may have heard it a bit mysterious, but this thing is actually not difficult to understand"
"The largest thermal power plant on earth, we can build it anywhere, as long as it doesn't affect the surrounding residents, even if you build it in the center of the city, it doesn't matter at all"
“But on the other hand, the new energy we advocate and the power plants that use renewable energy need to be carefully selected.”
“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”
“So, in order to completely abandon thermal power plants and embrace green energy, the most important thing we need to solve is how to transmit electricity from remote places to cities across a distance of hundreds of kilometers”
"Ordinary cables will have exaggerated loss when transported for hundreds of kilometers, while superconducting cables can transport electric energy for thousands of kilometers with only a few percent loss!"
"This is also the strategic significance of superconductors!"
Different from Lu Kuan, this major can be studied by a single person.
Mechanical major, there are not many laymen, and you have to get on your horse and work for half a day if you rub anything out.
Therefore, on the first day of the official opening of the mechanical group, Ai Jianfeng passed several questionnaires in the depression, selected several "students", and joined his team.
Among them, there are bold and careful old men in their forties who are good at handicrafts.
There are also young people in their early twenties who graduated from technical schools with only a little knowledge of physics and machinery.
A total of eight people, of which only two are talents who have completely accepted graduate students from elementary school, middle school, high school, and high school.
And these two people are also B+ grade talents with higher ratings, and the other six are ordinary B grade and B- grade.
"Teacher, the progress of room temperature superconductors on our earth is very slow. Until the crossing, let alone mass production, it is basically a concept!"
"Yes, not only this thing is a conceptual item on your earth, but also on our earth, it is also a thing that temporarily cannot see the border"
Ai Jianfeng did not speak, the voice came from Lu Kuan who hurried over not far away.
Wearing slightly crumpled overalls, Lu Kuan looked hurried and unkempt, but his eyes released a frightening light.
Eye transformation is an ability added to his template.
Its magical function is not only to zoom in and out of the object in front of you, it will never be myopic, and it can be as good as day at night, and it can collect information for analysis!
Through the analysis of Ai Jianfeng's lip language, Lu Kuan organized his language before he came close, 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"
"The BCS theory based on the near-free electron model can explain the principle of low-temperature superconductors, but only high-temperature superconductors, that is, the normal-temperature superconductivity you just mentioned, cannot be explained"
"This is an unknown field. About two hundred years ago, some people on our earth proposed this theory and researched a series of alternative realization items"
"Unfortunately, room temperature superconductivity still stays in the original theoretical stage until we cross over"
"We don't know the essence of superconductivity at all, and we can't find the corresponding research objects, so that we don't know which direction to research, which is the right direction"
"And those low-temperature superconductors can work because they only need liquid nitrogen, so you know that capital will not invest money in a black hole project. With this skill, they would rather arrange liquid for all the places that need to be applied to superconductivity Nitrogen will also be more reliable than investing in research on a project with no direction!"
Squatting down, with the light of the torch, he stroked the hot stone and observed the changes in it. Lu Kuan was full of the brilliance of believing in science.
Like the archbishop in the church, once he releases his concentration without any scruples, people who believe in science will also have a unique potential.
As if a certain kind of magnetic field is hidden, their movements will naturally attract the attention of others, so that even Su Mo's eyes follow Lu Kuan's hand, fluttering up and down.
"The biggest characteristic of superconductivity is that it will 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, and its ability to resist pressure is not good. It is not suitable for working in extreme environments. We can also rule out the fact that it is placed outdoors"
“The only thing that can give us a research direction is how this thing stores energy and how it releases it. We didn’t see the controller inside it. How does it judge that the heat absorption is enough? Keep the existing heat stored without loss before the absorption is completed!"
summarized a theory, looked at the face of the person next to him listening to the scriptures, and then looked at the helpless expression of Ai Jianfeng holding his forehead, Lu Kuan suddenly realized, and then added two sentences:
"In short, this thing is helpful to our research on superconductivity, but how much it can help depends on the later research"
"Director, I don't recommend putting this thing before our other research goals, but if it's hot weather, it's pretty good to use it to cool the villagers!"
Looking at Lu Kuan quietly winking, with a serious expression on his face, Su Mo instantly understood what Lu Kuan wanted to express.
Obviously, the importance of this thing is not as simple as Lu Kuan said, but because there are many people with mixed ears and need to avoid suspicion.
"Okay, since you don't need it now and you don't need to surround it, what should we do? We will still test the car at night, and it will not affect the plan!"
"Continue with the previous quiz now. Before eating, we must make sure to go through the three procedures. Before everyone rests at night, we must ensure that the heating is turned on!"
stood up and sent Lu Kuan away, and the rest of the people watching the theater also started to move.
The buried pipe was buried, the water was released, and the test was carried out again.
This time, after ignoring the slight changes on the barometer, the whole process went much smoother.
Before eating, the water flowed along the more than 300-meter pipeline for fifteen times, but no other problems were found.
While taking advantage of the meal time, coal was also put into the boiler for heating.
After everyone came back, compared with the already cold air outside, the boiler room was as warm as summer!
"It went very well, as long as the pipes are buried and the temperature rises, we can try heating for the first time"
After studying all the parameters and writing them down in the notebook for a while to analyze, Ai Jianfeng raised his head and reported the first milestone good news in the depression in many days.
However, seeing the calculated numbers below, he made a bitter face again.
"Boss, it's not very good. It may be because the ore dug from Iron Stone Mountain is of good quality, and the thermal conductivity of the entire pipeline is much higher than we expected, but in this way, although the upper limit of temperature is higher. Now, but the consumption also increases synchronously.”
"If we turn on the firepower at full capacity, the temperature can be pushed to 36 degrees at full load, but this consumes 300 kilograms of coal per hour. If we continue to use full load for six hours, then"
"Run out!"
"If the temperature is kept at about 20 in the low gear, it will consume 130 kg for an hour~IndoMTL.com~Our coal will only be turned on for fifteen hours!"
Compared with the scorching 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, the depressions are difficult to resist, and it is very likely that they will "run out of food" in the later stage.
However, unlike Ai Jianfeng's worry, Sumo, who had already made up his mind to attack the Blackstone camp, did not feel anxious about lack of resources.
Looking at all the workers around the boiler, looking here and trying there, their faces are full of surprises.
Looking at their strange screams of joy because the temperature rose by one degree.
Slowly, Su Mo also laughed with relief.
"Jianfeng, don't worry, the boiler consumes a lot of resources, not its problem, but our problem! We are poor so we can't afford this big guy!"
"However, compared with resources, look! These, this hot heart is our most precious harvest!"
"With them, will our resources be less?"
