Chapter 3445: A great benefit
After the elderly from Xiangli clan developed the magnetic levitation bearing, they directly added a hundred respects to Wang Chong, the ancestor who established this branch of the Kuaiji Wang family. They deeply believed that this man had really created a new era, but was taken away by ghosts and gods before dawn had arrived.
Well, this is not good for the Mo family. Ming Gui is what they said, but they actually believe in ghosts and gods. Of course, stealing ghosts and gods abilities and turning them into human power is also what they do. But it is undeniable that this group of people really like to hang things they don’t understand on ghosts and gods.
However, on the other hand, once anything is hung on the ghosts and gods by the Mo family, it is equivalent to being targeted by the Mo family.
Wow, this ghost and god's ability is so cool, I'll make one...
This is roughly the case, so among the hundreds of schools of thought, the Mohist school can rank among the top ones, but the Mohist school is also second to none in terms of studying and demonstrating the abilities of ghosts and gods. This can be said to be very magical.
While Mo Ziming was talking about the existence of ghosts and gods, he also said, "Although ghosts and gods are asked to die, they can still gather together and gather relatives in the village."
To put it simply, Mo Zi's set is already somewhat equivalent to the one in later generations that believed in ghosts and gods - the left eyelid is twitching, the left eyelid is twitching, the left eyelid is twitching, the right eyelid is twitching, the right eyelid is beaten, the baby is gone, how can this feudal superstition still exist?
Xiangli is not as tricky as later generations, but the general operation is actually not much different.
Therefore, after raising incense to Wang Chong, who was taken away by ghosts and gods at home, Xiangli entered a cheerful development and transformation, and he only had this little hobby for this family.
Unlike the families who study theory and summarize experience, Xiangli’s work is closer to engineering applications, so how to fill the gap between theory and practice depends on Xiangli’s ability. Fortunately, Xiangli’s aspect is really powerful.
After the magnetic levitation rotor was completed, the ball bearing was also abandoned by Xiangli for a very short time. The previous choice of ball bearings was largely because the ball bearing was at Xiangli for a high mechanical transmission efficiency.
But now, the transmission efficiency of magnetic levitation bearings has reached the level of anti-natural power, and the additional ball bearings are more used as load-bearing and auxiliary.
Although it also shares some of the transmission behavior, it is no longer a completely unacceptable thing like before to lose some efficiency to achieve a larger load.
In this case, why do you need to use low-load bearing rolling bearings and directly put on the sliding bearings? Wasn’t it because of the upper load limit of light rail before? Since some energy consumption losses can be accepted, it is better to start a rail train directly, the tracks are directly on the heavy rail, the track spacing is 2.5 meters and the load capacity is directly on the highest level of high-carriage.
Due to historical accumulation, the width of the tracks in later generations was fixed, and the most reasonable mode track spacing layout mode was not possible, which in turn resulted in corresponding restrictions on the design width and carrying width of the rail train.
What is even more distorted is that there are too many historical legacy, which means that even if a country wants to redesign the track width, it needs to consider the existing track width in the world, unless it does not carry out international transportation. However, for the internationalization of later generations, it is simply unrealistic.
Therefore, many people know that such a design is very devastating and is not the most reasonable arrangement, but there is no other choice.
Similar to this is the water transport problem of the Yangtze River. Large ships, only 10,000 tons, can enter the Yangtze River runoff. However, the reason why large ships cannot enter the Yangtze River is actually because of the bridge. When designing the bridge, large ships that may exist in the future were ignored, and then one by one after another...
Even if we realize the problem, we still say that we can't demolish all these bridges. This is not a little bit of money, and it needs to be rebuilt after demolition. This is also a problem, so it has emerged. This is something that everyone knows the problem, but can only pretend not to know. After all, this is a historical problem.
However, this problem does not exist in this era. After all, the Xiangli family is not bound by historical problems. If it were not for the need to consider load and orbital load-bearing, the Xiangli family might have made the orbital spacing even more outrageous. After all, they really have this ability.
Even the younger generations of Xiangli, who have a bigger mind, have begun to design palace-style and fortress-style rail trains. After all, they are different from the petty spirit of Europe. Since ancient times, the Central Plains has had a habit of being big and beautiful. In Xiao He's words, "No one can be strong and powerful."
Under this idea, the importance of ball precision has declined again, because Xiangli no longer wants to use ball bearings. The load-bearing of this thing is used to make light tanks. But now, Xiangli, who has a big brain, has already wanted to build a fortress and a palace.
By the way, the Weiyang Palace in the Han Dynasty had an area of about five square kilometers and belonged to the top palace group. Its self-weight was not clear and there were still hundreds of thousands of tons. However, the Xiangli family, whose brains were injected with the concept of magnetic levitation, wanted to be a mobile type, no, no, no, it should be a fortress palace group shoulder to shoulder with the sun.
Although the dreams of younger generations have been suppressed by the older generation, the idea of flying into the sky and standing shoulder to shoulder with the sun has remained in the minds of the younger generation Xiangli.
After that, Xiangli, who was down-to-earth, made available bearings before spring came. Compared with the light rail that was considered at the beginning, this time it could be said that it was in one step and directly reached the load-bearing level of high load. In this way, it was a question of whether the track could withstand it. After all, high loading requirements for tracks are also very high.
However, Xiangli himself also pointed out the two items of smelting and forging, and Xiangli himself has been the basic subject of alloy materials for more than six hundred years. During the Qin Dynasty, they could use copper as the basis to create things with strength no less than iron tools.
Regarding this item, Chen Xi also asked Xiangli and asked how it was done. Xiangli took antimony ore and copper lead that he had obtained from some unknown place to make a batch of bronzeware in proportion, and the mechanical strength exceeded the garbage ironware.
Of course, Chen Xi did not recognize it as antimony ore at that time, because Xiangli called this thing Lianxi, so Chen Xi looked at it for a long time but couldn't tell what it was. It was not until Chen Xi realized that it seemed to be antimony ore.
In fact, the results of the spectral analysis of the Qin Dynasty's bronze sword can basically be regarded as black technology, such as antimony ore smelting to strengthen the strength of alloys, and oxidation of surface chromium salts.
Now Xiangli no longer works on bronze ware, but instead specializes in smelting alloys. He transported a large amount of ore that had been added to it in the past by smelting bronze ware. Although Chen Xi could not recognize what ore it was, he was basically sure that it was chromium salt.
Xiangli definitely didn't know what this is, but Xiangli used this thing to add it to his own furnace since the Qin Dynasty, and he also knew what the effect would be after adding it. He could even tell which ores meet their own requirements based on the feel and taste.
This is why many places like to use iron ingots produced by Xiangli, because they are also iron ingots, and the quality of things produced by Xiangli is indeed better than other factories and mines. After all, until now, Chen Xi has no way to determine how to add chromium salt.
This kind of thing that cannot be purified can only be relied on the experience of old craftsmen. After all, Chen Xi also needs to be calm and composed at a melting temperature of 4,000 degrees.
From this point of view, the experience of the ancients was still very useful. Although this experience would be eliminated due to technological progress and improvement of accuracy, the experience of the old craftsmen would indeed be extremely convenient before the technology reaches a certain level.
It can be said that as Xiangli completed the magnetic levitation shaft, everything needed for the rail train was settled, leaving only one approval document. Of course, Chen Xi did not know this fact.
That's right, Chen Xi, who is currently talking nonsense with the eldest princess, has no idea that Xiangli has completed a leap-level technological progress, and has directly advanced from the original ball axis to the 21st century before entering the in-depth research stage of the magnetic levitation axis. It can be said that it has reached the sky in one step.
"In short, this thing must be built. Rail trains have great significance for national rule. However, in the current situation, a design drawing must be produced and the load can only be put on the agenda. However, the load at this time should not be too high." Chen Xi said with a smile.
Chen Xi guessed that it would be enough to use the wood rail after warming and strengthening at the beginning. Anyway, with warming and supporting, the strength is still guaranteed. Of course, the most important thing is to use the wood rail to be lighter. Of course, when Xiangli made the design drawing of 2.5 meters, he could only use the railway rail.
"Are the southwest and northwest? Where are the southeast and northeast?" Liu Tong asked with curiosity.
"When it's time, it will definitely be repaired, but there is a sequence in this." Chen Xi nodded and said, "There is only one reason to first build the southwest and northwest, to consolidate the newly occupied territory and avoid the land that has finally occupied becomes an enclave.
"The places in the northeast and southeast have been the inherent territory of our China since ancient times. The people in those places generally do not have the idea of division. The newly occupied places are different." Chen Xi found a map and explained to Liu Tong.
"The profit is very big." Liu Tong thought for a while and said, "I always feel that the benefits in this matter seem to be very big and incredible."
