The new energy source quickly gained popularity. The engineers themselves had accumulated a lot of experience in developing steam engines. They had tried to develop steam engines before and achieved many results.
After all, the mineral resources and forestry resources on this continent are actually quite rich, at least much richer than petroleum. If the thermal efficiency of the steam engine can be improved, then it is indeed a very suitable energy source for this continent. After all,
This thing is less picky than an internal combustion engine. It can be driven by burning coal or firewood. It is also completely fine to burn garbage when necessary.
After Qinglian Earth Core Fire could be used as fire, engineers became even more enthusiastic about the development of internal combustion engines. Lan Nuo also came to the workshop in person and participated in the design of the new power machine. The design of this new power machine is very
It might mean changes that could change the entire continent, so he was particularly attentive.
In the process of designing the power machine, the first difficulty the engineers encountered was that the temperature of the Qinglian Earth Core Fire was too high.
"Although the boilers we smelted can withstand such high temperatures, most of our fuels cannot. As you can see, this coal mine burned normally when it was first ignited, but soon it burned due to the flames.
Due to the high temperature, a large amount of steam quickly evaporates from the surface, causing the combustion to become extremely violent, and eventually a deflagration phenomenon occurs.
In such a violent combustion environment, even if the boiler can withstand the high temperature, it will be torn apart by the shock wave of the explosion. What's more, our power machine does not need to consider thermal efficiency too much because of its abundant energy source.
Consider the adverse effects on the driver of the waste heat generated by these power machines after they are installed on the locomotive."
Lan Nuo nodded: "This problem must be solved. What is your improvement method? My suggestion is to divide the fuel into many different types and don't generalize."
The scientific researcher in charge of the report nodded: "We think so too. For these devices that require high power output, we use a fuel nozzle design. Whether it is liquid or solid, it is continuous during the combustion process.
A small amount of flammable material is ejected.
Fuels also need to be processed first. For example, coal mines need to be processed into pulverized coal, and wood needs to be carbonized first and then ground into powder. The use of other combustibles is similar, and liquid ones are much simpler.
It needs to be poured into the fuel tank and sprayed out through the nozzle.
On the other hand, we are considering using it on less sophisticated equipment or equipment that does not need to be moved. Although the fuel nozzle can solve most of the problems, the temperature of the Qinglian Earth Core Fire is too high, and our fuel
The nozzle is almost the most expensive part of the entire set of equipment. It needs to withstand the highest temperature and ensure that its mechanical structure does not change. At this stage, it is a high-precision equipment.
In order to solve this problem, we are going to mix a lot of impurities into the fuel. The one that has been tested so far and has very good results is to mix rock powder and charcoal powder ten to one to create a fuel column. It just so happens that this step can also
Entering our chemical system, after combustion, quicklime powder can be obtained, which saves the fuel required in the combustion process and can also absorb the additional waste heat generated during the combustion process."
Lan Nuo nodded in approval of this method. This is a processing method that he had not thought of just now. Derived from this idea, there can be a variety of doping impurity ratios. As long as the reaction needs to be carried out under high temperature conditions, it can be used as a treatment method.
Impurities are doped into it, so that the energy released during the reaction is just enough to complete some difficult chemical steps.
For motor vehicles, using these fuels mixed with impurities is undoubtedly a waste of the capacity of their own fuel tanks, so it is definitely not possible to do this. However, for giant steam boilers that do not need to move their positions, it is also a waste of fuel inside the factory.
Steam machinery can completely adopt this method. They do not need to move anyway, and the impact of higher fuel quality is extremely limited.
"You can also try to develop your own control over Dou Qi and strengthen your control over Dou Qi. In fact, you can do some pretty incredible things. When your control reaches a certain level, even if you only have a trace of Dou Qi in your body,
Can play a catalytic role in chemical reactions.
Or separate different substances through microscopic control, or let yourself have infrared vision, stimulate your nerves, greatly enhance your dynamic vision, directly destroy the microstructure of harmful bacteria and viruses, and thereby cure the disease. These are all for
It is possible to do this with subtle manipulation of vindictiveness.
It can catalyze the progress of chemical reactions, and naturally it can also inhibit the progress of chemical reactions. We can divide some people into developing similar methods of using Dou Qi, which can also be used as a kind of technical reserve for us.
We can use nozzles on ordinary gas engines, but if it is on some fighters, what we need is more powerful power, and the nozzles may not be enough to complete the mission. The driver needs to have the control ability to freely regulate the reaction.
rate, thereby controlling the intensity of energy release during flight."
Everyone at the meeting nodded. Some of them were responsible for the research on the new Dou Qi system architecture. The development of Dou Qi in this world has been developing in a large and huge direction for a long time. That is, to allow your body to accommodate it.
More fighting spirit relies on the huge amount of fighting spirit to overcome skill with strength.
Before Lan Nuo arrived, there was no future in developing in a small and insignificant direction, because no matter how sophisticated your skills were, and you could control thousands of strands of fighting spirit at the same time, as long as the opponent was a level higher than you, you could easily rely on it.
With huge fighting spirit, he punched the old master to death, and over time, no one would waste their energy on this thankless road.
But now with the assistance of technological equipment, it is different. In many battles, you do not need to use force personally. You only need to learn to control tools and make tools. Whether it is controlling tools or making tools, what is needed is more sophisticated.
Control, fighting skills with wider functionality, such micro-level control capabilities become more meaningful.
Traditional practitioners focus on the tenacity of the meridians in their bodies and the strength of their bodies, so that they can store more fighting energy in their bodies.
But now the new batch of cultivators, limited by their own talents, have become very difficult to obtain more fighting energy, so they do the opposite and do not pay attention to the toughness of the meridians. Instead, they make their meridians become stronger.
Slender and seemingly quite fragile.
However, with the help of transplantation and conductive metal, these slender meridians have become more numerous and densely arranged like circuit boards. Through complex arrangements, they can help reduce the burden of using Dou Qi to construct extremely complex fighting skills.
In the process, it consumes the power of one's own soul.
For example, many fighting games require a lot of moves, which requires players to have higher reaction abilities. When fighting, they not only have to observe the enemy's movements and make timely responses, but also have to use moves to release skills. Obviously,
It is a great test for technology. At this time, the new meridian network constructed by these scientific researchers in the body is equivalent to making a button macro in the body. The moves that need to be performed in the future can be released by just pressing a button.
Naturally, the difficulty has been greatly reduced.
The reason for this choice is that if many fighting skills rely solely on the control of one's own soul power to control the fighting spirit, it is no longer as simple as the difficulty to release it, but the difficulty is so high that it is impossible to release it. Simply speaking, it is complicated.
In terms of level, these fighting skills that consume a negligible amount of fighting energy may be more complicated than heaven-level fighting skills. If you want to use and popularize them, you can only choose to burn them into your own body and become a part of your body. You can instantly
key released.
As for reaction catalysis, this is a brand-new fighting skill that has been successfully developed and partially put into industrial production. It is difficult to evaluate it using the four levels of heaven, earth, black and yellow, because it basically has no power at all in combat.
, the amount of fighting energy consumed is negligible, and the lethality is almost equivalent to none. It is a purely functional fighting skill that can be used to catalyze the reaction.
For example, the most familiar hydrogen peroxide is decomposed by adding manganese dioxide. The manganese dioxide is the catalyst. After the reaction, the mass will not increase or decrease. This fighting technique can replace the role of manganese dioxide and greatly
The efficiency of the reaction can be greatly improved, even better than that of the catalyst, but if the opposite is done, it is also possible to reduce the efficiency of the reaction.
At present, this system is still in its infancy, and a lot of experience is still needed before it can truly establish a system to compete with the current Dou Qi system. Moreover, if you want to truly combat the current Dou Qi system, you also need to understand the nature of this world.
Only with sufficient understanding of scientific knowledge can it be possible to establish a strong enough scientific and technological system.
The current steam engine is probably the first step, and perhaps the most important step.
…
Stone Desert City, today this city has become the most prosperous city in the entire Tagor Desert, and it is not an exaggeration to even say that it is the most prosperous city in the entire Gama Empire.
The richness of coal, iron and other mining resources has made this place an industrial center of this era. Railways extending in all directions connect the city, and roads are being built. Looking down from the sky, you can see countless connections.
Staring at the city, he looked like a nerve cell with teeth and claws.
And on these roads, you can see a strange scene, that is, a silver heavy-duty truck with a rather sci-fi style, and a simple carriage using rubber pneumatic tires and a steel tube structural frame, driving on the same road.
The most advanced technology has not yet been popularized. Those sci-fi vehicles are all powered by air-conducting metals. Although these metals have been mass-produced with large-scale breeding, the price is still gold. After all, it is magic.
Industrial products produced with nuclear as the main material are not affordable for ordinary people no matter how cheap they are.
Therefore, the main means of transportation used by ordinary people is still the carriage, but the horses pulling the carriage have been replaced by some of the more docile monsters in the Warcraft breeding industry, which have greater endurance and strength than ordinary horses.
But even so, every time the coachman sees the sci-fi-looking delivery vehicle passing by, he will feel envious from the bottom of his heart.
But today, there seems to be an unexpected product on the market in Motie City.
Carl has been a coachman for more than ten years. From the original mules, to the retired military horses, and even the current Warcraft, the animals pulling the cart have become more and more powerful over the years, making him a popular figure in the circle.
, a model of success.
As an ordinary coachman, Carl has always been grateful to God for giving him such good luck. Like other colleagues, he did not break his leg on the road, or was robbed, his family was destroyed, and his wealth was not targeted by others. Good thing
I have been lucky enough to get to where I am now.
He thought he was completely satisfied with his current life, until he saw the latest vehicle launched by Motie Mining Company at the market today.
It was a vehicle that did not require horses. He was no longer novel about this kind of vehicle. In the process of transporting between cities and rural areas, he had seen too many such large-scale carrier vehicles. After just asking about the price,
He gave up because it was a high price that he could never afford in his life.
However, the car on display in front of me is much smaller than those heavy-duty trucks, but it looks like it is not bad at all in terms of power. The overall shape of the car is like a pickup truck, with two rows of seats and a long
The long body, tall chassis and huge tires prove that it has very good off-road performance, and the excellent suspension system allows it to run smoothly even on bumpy terrain.
The most important thing is that at the front of the car, the boiler is constantly spraying out white mist. White steam is sprayed from the chimney on the side. Pipes are entangled at the bottom of the car, bringing the car and
With its strong power, Carl saw that this car was actually able to drag a boulder weighing thousands of kilograms and move forward slowly and forcefully against the friction of the sandy ground. This power was much stronger than the Warcraft he bought, but it was just that
Such strong performance made him give up hope of purchasing it.
But even so, he didn't leave, just like many people who still go to car shows even though their pockets are cleaner than their faces. It's good to just take a look at your beloved car.
And this feeling of envy, with a little bit of jealousy, lasted until the moment the host of the car show announced the price...
