Rising: Ten Thousand Years Chapter 151: ：A sign of the advent of the aviation age
At this moment, almost all the guests present have already understood what the big move of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences is.
—— thermal power station!
A massive AC power plant!
The commercial value of this can be clearly seen by anyone who can appear here as a guest.
To understand the commercial value, we must first understand the current national electricity market. All are DC power supply, mainly based on dry batteries.
Ordinary people seldom use electric lights in their homes, they all use candles. Only wealthy families can use electric lights, and the energy consumption of electric lights is to use dry batteries. The consumption of dry batteries in each area is extremely huge.
Some developed cities have street lights, and all street lights use dry batteries.
The general price of a dry battery is around 200 coins. It can make a 40-watt light bulb work normally for 7 days.
Therefore, the entire Kyushu battery market is extremely prosperous, almost in the form of an exclusive monopoly. The production data of dry batteries and the principle data of direct current are all controlled by the National Academy of Sciences, and fully controlled by the inventor, the father of direct current. monopoly.
And when the Institute of Electromagnetics proposed alternating current, everyone felt something was wrong. Because the alternating current he proposed no longer needs batteries, but only needs the power grid to allow electricity to flow into thousands of households.
More power, more amazing transmission. Everyone couldn't help guessing that if alternating current really works, it is undoubtedly equivalent to digging out 80% of the profits in the exclusive monopoly of the National Academy of Sciences.
People don't need to buy batteries anymore, and it doesn't need to be so time-consuming. Even with the same electricity, the price is the same. Instead, people will be more inclined to AC power, because it is automatically transmitted and does not require you to install and remove the battery.
But the guests are still guessing in their hearts, because it is too difficult to lay. In addition, the cost issue is a big problem.
However, the appearance of the electric motor made everyone aware of it. It seems that the era of changing the power of Kyushu is coming. The more powerful asynchronous AC motor needs more powerful AC power, and the DC power can't move it at all.
At this time, everyone is already somewhat determined.
And it wasn't until the steam turbine of the School of Mechanical Power came out that they were completely shocked...
The era of alternating current is coming soon.
As long as you are a businessman, you can clearly see the benefits. A thermal power station can generate enough energy for one day to supply the entire Qingdao County for a week.
What is this concept? This is a kind of profit that will monopolize the entire electricity market at an extremely terrifying speed.
This steam turbine burns coal. Even if you burn for one day, how much coal can you burn?
But the power it provides radiates to the entire Qingdao County, and it can be used for a week. The difference between the cost and the profit is actually so large.
Most of the results are linked to alternating current.
The layout of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences is a bit big this time. Is this Li Zhen's big move?
Li Zhen saw that Qin Enze had gradually finished explaining the steam turbine, and walked back to the auditorium with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face. The corners of his mouth were curved, calm and confident.
"When alternating current radiated to the entire Kyushu, the industrial age came naturally. Surprisingly, steam forging machines appeared in Nanzhou. Using the principle of steam engines, a large number of substitutes were produced. Artificial steam machinery. Preliminary machine tools? Some businessmen have already begun to use steam engines to promote the industrial age. And when the alternating current is laid out, when the asynchronous motor, synchronous motor, and three-phase motor are all mature, Kyushu will take on a new look.”
With a murmur, there was a raging fire burning in Li Zhen's eyes, which was the growth of ambition.
"Up to three years later. Kyushu will lead the world for twenty years."
“…”
Afterwards, the guests who returned to the auditorium also began to meditate on their own. The huge benefits hidden in it, the almost terrifying profits, made everyone crazy.
"Everyone, you must have seen my classmate's steam turbine, oh, that is, a steam turbine. My name is Liu Jinghong, I am a native of Laoshan County, and I am also the dean of the Aviation Research Institute of the Department of Physics, Kyushu Academy of Sciences. "
‘Wow——’
The scene exploded again, everyone exclaimed and raised their brows, Aviation Research Institute. This is the most mysterious and powerful subject in the Kyushu Academy of Sciences.
Wang Zhongshu sighed and said with a wry smile: "Lin Xiufeng, a master of physics drawn from our school by the imperial court, is now also the vice president of the Aeronautics Research Institute. The rebellion is very thorough."
Xu Shenxue also smiled bitterly and said: "The teachers transferred from our school have also become students here. Wherever you go to reason, this place is so magical."
"Haha, it's not considered a student. They have some irregularities here. They are called classmates, students, and colleagues. I don't understand."
“…”
Liu Jinghong smiled, with a confident attitude: "I believe everyone knows that our Aeronautics Research Institute deals with astronautics. I won't mention the paraglider. It's just a manual experiment of ours. I think it's getting hot. Hehehe."
As soon as this remark came out, the physics students in the backstage yelled: "This thief is very shameless."
"Obviously everyone has researched the paraglider together, but when he moves his mouth, it becomes a small experiment of their aviation research institute."
"The most shameless is Liu Jinghong."
“…”
On the stage, Liu Jinghong continued: "What is a paraglider? What about jumping from a high place? If human beings want to truly touch the blue sky, they still need to lift off from the ground and be able to enter the blue sky autonomously. No more What high mountains and cliffs do you need to rely on?"
Feng Nai'en raised his eyebrows: "Could it be that in such a short period of time, the Kyushu Institute has actually researched a real flying machine?"
Qian Mao squinted his eyes, feeling a little overwhelmed: "I think so."
“…”
Liu Jinghong laughed: "Now the outside is ready. Please move."
Moving again!
It seems that the finished product has appeared.
A thousand guests came out in a file, but Li Zhen was a little too lazy to move, so he didn't go out at all, and just sat in his seat and dozed off.
When everyone went outside. Under the leadership of Lin Xiufeng, all the staff of the Aeronautical Research Institute have already started preparations.
In the yard, there is a basket made of bamboo, which is four or five square meters in size, and there are sandbags and other things in the basket. And the basket is connected to a large piece of special cloth that covers the entire floor through more than a dozen steel wires.
As Lin Xiufeng controlled a machine above the basket, the machine kept emitting raging flames, and the flames rushed into the special fabric, which soon began to swell. Then it slowly expanded into a huge ball, floating in the sky.
Liu Jinghong smiled and said: "This is our latest achievement, a hot air balloon. As you can see, a hot air balloon is an aircraft that is lighter than air, with the upper half in the shape of a large balloon and the lower half a hanging basket. The inside of the balloon heats the air, so that it has a lower density than the cold outside air, which acts as buoyancy to cause the whole body to move; the hanging basket can carry passengers and heat sources...and the core of the whole hot air balloon ~IndoMTL.com~ is Deputy Lin The alcohol blowtorch that the dean is operating. It is the main tool that provides the upward power for the hot air balloon.”
“…”
Everyone stared dumbfounded at the big balloon that had already floated up, and saw Liu Jinghong and Lin Xiufeng standing in the hanging basket, looking at each other.
"This..."
"So you can go to heaven?"
"It has no wings, nothing, so it can go to the sky?"
"That's okay, how did they come up with this?"
"Look, the basket is floating!"
“…”
'Hoo Hoo'
Another blue fire dragon sprang out from the blowtorch, and the inside of the hot air balloon suddenly inflated again.
Liu Jinghong threw down a sandbag in the hanging basket and said with a smile, "This is a hot air balloon."
'Hoo Hoo'
There was a sudden shock. The whole body was red, and the huge hot air balloon suddenly accelerated, taking the two people under the gondola with it, and flew towards the sky at high speed...
All the people in Laoshan County raised their heads at the same time.
But I saw a basket hanging under a big red balloon, and there were two people looking down at the basket standing in the basket. There are huge characters written on the hot air balloon - Kyushu Aeronautical Research Institute.
"They really went to heaven."
