Silent Crown Chapter 626: Genius Ideas
Two months ago, under the impetus of the Order, the Asgardians went to war against the Caucasus Kingdom controlled by the Revolutionary Army.
This is a battle destined to win, at least everyone thought that at first.
The strength of the two sides is huge, the Caucasus kingdoms are retreating steadily, and the east and west lines are completely lost. The third army commander drove straight in. At the most terrible time, the distance to the Caucasus was only forty kilometers.
However, sixteen days ago, overnight, the situation reversed.
The weapon named "Redemption" was installed in the hands of 2,000 members of the revolutionary army. Then, three hours later, this one was composed of farmers, craftsmen, bankrupt merchants, and landlords. The formed army, under the leadership of the elderly soldiers, even wiped out the most elite third legion of the Asgardians.
Sixty thousand elite soldiers are buried in the snowy field forever.
It's like a ridiculous joke.
In the ensuing war, Asgard, whose national strength ranks first in the West, retreated steadily. In just two weeks, it lost the territory occupied by the Caucasus, and even dared not proceed directly in a short period of time. The war can only impose an economic blockade on the Caucasus at sea in a roundabout way.
For a time, all countries put their sights on the weapon called ‘salvation’...
Through rough workmanship and simple technology, what they see is almost infinite war potential!
Within this month, no matter how the holy city banned and reprimanded, the research institutes of every country were crazy about it, and even half a month later, there were already imitations that were not inferior to the original ones.
It's like a noble and powerful knight died under the peasant's crossbow.
The method of warfare has begun to change.
This is just a sign.
Even if the Hundred Eyes were defeated, it still wasn't a complete failure.
At least, he threw the abyss into the material world, and completely liberated the increasingly powerful nations from the shackles of the holy city. The Third Amendment Act has existed in name only.
Everyone knows that the turbulent year is coming.
The change has just begun, no one can imagine how many monsters this world after breaking free from the guardianship of the cult...
Ye Qingxuan set his sight on the external gas turbine of Stirling. After a long time, he suddenly asked:
"Which working medium did you choose?"
Ronald was silent for a moment and replied: "After trying various gases, we decided to use alchemically transformed mercury."
"Oh?"
Ye Qingxuan smiled: "Why?"
The smile made Ronald a little flustered for some reason.
He coughed twice, sorted out his thoughts, and then explained:
"First, alchemical mercury is very sensitive to temperature. As long as it reaches the boiling point, two standard units of mercury can be steamed instantly, and if it is lower than the boiling point, it can be condensed and cooled instantaneously. As long as the seal is well sealed, it can be used to push the piston As far as the medium is concerned, it is perfect.
Moreover, its production method has become mature, although it is slightly more expensive than gas, but in the long run. It is much less than the resources consumed by us to re-research and popularize production. "
"Oh? Cost-effective?"
Ye Qingxuan raised his eyebrows: "This is not the idea of an ordinary researcher. It seems that Director Ronald's talents are not limited to a small researcher."
Speaking, he patted Ronald on the shoulder and praised:
"Not bad."
Ronald grinned reluctantly, and went on to introduce: "Moreover, with the current design, we can flexibly replace external accessories.
In this case, any fuel can be driven, solid, liquid, and gaseous are completely indifferent. As long as there is a matching burner, we can achieve complete compatibility. "
"The popularity has been greatly improved."
Ye Qingxuan nodded and applauded: "Perfect. Then, how to solve the most important noise link?"
Speaking of this, Ronald laughed.
"No need to worry about this."
He pointed to the components of the external combustion engine and said: "Compared with the original steam engine, the biggest natural advantage of the external combustion engine driven by the Carnot cycle is that the noise will be greatly reduced. Will not cause any etheric reaction.
And the most subtle thing is that we use alchemy mercury. Alchemy mercury will absorb the noise of the external combustion engine, generate ether reaction by itself, and increase the thrust of the machine.
The only disadvantage is that the start-up process requires a long preheating, but the new cycle designed by our formula requires external combustion only in the preheating phase. Once the body is running and entering the inertia phase, the alchemical mercury will Absorb the noise generated during operation by itself, and then provide power.
Moreover, the efficiency is 60% of the original body. We only need a very small fuel supply to maintain the entire cycle.
Although miniaturization cannot be achieved, we have an incomparable advantage over the ether engine.
According to calculations, at the same cost, the ether engine can only drive one piece of armor, but our external combustion engine can drive an entire workshop! "
Speaking of this, Ronald could no longer hide his ecstasy and danced.
Ye Qingxuan was not as excited as he thought. Instead, he didn't have the slightest smile. He just nodded: "Then, let's start the experiment now. I can't wait to see it."
Ronald froze for a moment and nodded quickly.
Soon, the fuel cart was sent up.
For safety's sake, the others retreated tens of meters away, and only Ye Qingxuan stood in front of the external combustion engine in time.
Even if the prototype has various uncertainties, he does not believe that an out-of-control external combustion engine is capable of causing any damage to himself. It's a joke, something that Hundred Eyes and Arthur can't do, if a broken machine can do it, then it can do a natural disaster.
After waving his hand to signal Ronald to start, Ye Qingxuan waited quietly.
Ronald hesitated for a moment, waved a shovel, and lamely added coals to the combustion furnace of the external combustion engine. It took a few minutes before and after, and it was scattered on the ground.
Soon, after the filling was completed, a fiery flame rose in the burner.
Ronald in front of the furnace was already sweating.
Five minutes later, after the warm-up, the huge external combustion engine began to tremble slightly, and Ye Qingxuan heard the deep sound of the piston flying in the core in the low sound like a swarm of bees flapping its wings.
Startup is complete!
Alchemy mercury vaporizes and expands, pushing the piston to move, and with the cooling flow at the other end, it condenses into liquid again and shrinks.
The huge power is born from the cylinder along with the operation of the prototype, and it is continuously transmitted along the cables and mechanical structure, driving the large lathe as the experimental object in the distance.
The variable box is running in a low enclave, the low sound of steel collision and friction sounds, the lathe trembles, the gear is running, and the headstock starts to run.
The transmission chain began to rotate, and the solid steel was transported to the front of the tool holder. There was a sharp sound, and the steel was quickly cut by the piercing noise.
Everyone held their breath.
The heavy piece of steel was cut under the alloy turning tool. After a dazzling series of complicated processes, in just a few seconds, a polished and polished hollow steel shaft was removed from the drive chain. Rolled to the ground with a crisp sound.
The tester ran up at risky steps, took out various tools for inspection, and finally raised his head excitedly and waved in ecstasy.
Qualified!
At that moment, the suffocating atmosphere was broken, and everyone cheered. The external combustion engine finally took its first step and proved its industrial potential.
While cheering, Ye Qingxuan suddenly stretched out his hand and directly skipped the control equipment in the proving ground, and extracted a large amount of ether from the sea of ether, and the silver streamer rushed in.
With the flick of his fingers, an alarm sounded.
In front of him, the location of the external combustion engine rose from a pure white area to a yellow area representing hidden dangers. The external combustion engine shook and continued to operate, even speeding up.
Five minutes later, Ye Qingxuan waved his hand again, and the ether density climbed straight up.
Red zone!
The external combustion engine trembles violently, and the low and deep sound makes the ether in the air burst into light, and countless ripples expand each other and spread to the surroundings.
But it's still in the safe zone.
Under the influence of the external environment, the stability of the external combustion engine has plummeted, and even gaps have appeared in the main cabin of the airframe. Behind him, the researchers who were watching from afar swallowed and spit, desperately praying for the stable operation of the external combustion engine.
But the noise is getting louder and louder, and the loopholes in the prototype are exposed.
Failure to achieve a perfect seal, causing the operation of the fuselage to be affected by the external environment.
Ye Qingxuan pondered for a moment and waved again.
Black area!
Only an instant, there was a loud roar, and broken gears flew out of the casing, tearing a huge gap in it. The gear fragments whizzed out and stopped abruptly in front of Ye Qingxuan.
Only an inch passed through his head.
Everyone gasped.
The external combustion engine roared, spewing out a large amount of steaming alchemy mercury, and then fell into silence.
As it stopped, everyone's faces became pale.
Failed.
But in the silence, there were applause sounds.
Ye Qingxuan.
He clapped his hands and stared at the damaged external combustion engine in front of him, smiling, full of joy:
"Very good, very good, I should say, beyond my expectation!
Mr. Ronald, the results produced by you and your research team will shock the whole world! "
Ronald looked at him in a daze, for a long time, hesitatingly asked:
"But, didn't it just...broken?"
"The black zone is a mechanical restricted zone. Except for a few simple machines that can operate stably, there are no conditions for the operation of large construction machinery, right? What's more, there are no prototypes that have been tested and inspected at all, which can achieve this level. It’s already unexpected."
Ye Qingxuan shrugged: "Besides, I never thought about running it in the black zone, even the red zone was not considered. It was originally a production machine, never used to develop things. It only needs to be able to operate in the white zone. Smooth operation in the environment of Hutchison District has met all production needs.
It’s already good to be able to do this. No, it’s unparalleled, Mr. Ronald, I look forward to the day when it is officially produced.
I hope you don’t slack off and can keep up the work. "
As if returning from **** to heaven in an instant, Ronald nodded ecstatically, hugged and cheered with other researchers.
This reaction made Ye Qingxuan a little helpless. He acted like a tyrant. Would he kill them all if he succeeded?
He shook his head and looked at the external combustion engine that had been completely damaged in front of him.
The eyes can't help but wonder.
It’s not because of the astonishment and its results, and it’s not because of its unexpected performance. On the contrary, as the first person to come into contact with its principles, Ye Qingxuan had long been psychologically prepared.
It's just that, through the rough prototype, what he saw was not just a crude prototype engine, but almost perfect ideas and ideas.
The Royal Academy did better than he thought.
Its designer controlled its principles like art, creating the most perfect prototype, like invisible hands delivering the embryos that are still in gestation.
Now that newborn babies come into this world, although they are slightly weak, their future is destined to be great.
It's a genius idea.
It is foreseeable that rail carriages will soon be eliminated, and the huge machinery installed with a Stirling external combustion engine will pull hundreds of carriages on the rails.
Immediately, the production industry and industry will also usher in earth-shaking changes, and a lot of manpower will be liberated from complicated and simple tasks...
The world will usher in further changes.
Ye Qingxuan smiled silently.
-
After a short celebration, the researchers showed Ye Qingxuan its design drawings and a large number of applications. Just by looking at the thickness, you can feel the effort they spend on it.
"By the way, I remember you said that you have completed the main cycle through a new formula on the basis of the original, so that the alchemical mercury can stably absorb noise and convert it into power.
Now it seems that the efficiency of the entire external combustion engine has almost doubled. It is a genius idea... What kind of formula is it? "
Ye Qingxuan flipped through the design drawings and asked casually: "I am interested in this, can you explain it to me?"
For an instant, the atmosphere seemed to freeze.
The researchers looked at each other~IndoMTL.com~ Finally looked at Ronald, Ronald's expression became a little stiff, "Uh...this..."
"Ah, I found it."
Ye Qingxuan pulled out a blueprint filled with complicated numbers, smiled and looked at it, and exclaimed from time to time. Finally, he raised his head and pointed to a few values in the corners:
"Excuse me, how to solve the variables here and here? I don't understand, how is this result calculated?"
Ronald was silent, swallowing and spitting, he was already sweating for some time.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Qingxuan raised his head, still smiling: "Mr. Ronald, you seem to be a little uncomfortable?"
"It's here...it's too hot."
Ronald grinned reluctantly, and pulled his tie: "It's really hot."
Ye Qingxuan did not speak, just smiled and looked at him.
Looking at it, Ronald's face became paler and paler, unable to restrain the trembling of his legs, until in the end, he could barely stand still and sat down on the ground.
"Hey, I'm a little dizzy."
He smiled awkwardly, trying to get up, but his arms trembled: "What did you ask? I will explain to you..."
But Ye Qingxuan stopped smiling.
He shook his head, sighed, and threw the blueprint in his hand on Ronald.
"Come on, sir. Lying is a highly skilled work, it is not for you."
He knelt down, looked into Ronald’s eyes, and asked softly:
"Tell me, where did the formula come from?"
Ronald's expression twitched, and his defenses turned upside down: "The time is too short, your request is too demanding, and we are forced to..."
"I understand, one month's time is simply unkind."
Ye Qingxuan nodded in a soft voice:
"But if you don't do this, why would you go to Newton for help?"
