As the most popular research in Guanshishan Academy during this period, topics related to electricity and magnetism have been constantly becoming the content of conversation between teachers and students after dinner.

Even Zheng He from Weishui Academy paid the price of his life in the experiment guiding lightning, he could not suppress everyone's yearning for new inventions.

Obviously, research related to electricity and magnetism is the most likely scientific research project to win the Datang Royal Science and Technology Award in this year or in the next few years.

A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier.

The teachers and students who do not want to win the Royal Science and Technology Award in the Tang Dynasty are not good researchers.

Nowadays, all laboratories and research institutes are working hard to make efforts in this regard.

As the most popular Steam Engine Research Institute of Guanshishan Academy in the past few years, it is naturally impossible to remain indifferent in the face of the competitive pressure brought by the Thunderbolt Research Institute and the Kerosene Engine Research Institute.

"Master, it is not very difficult to use battery sensing to generate electricity.

In the laboratory, electricity can be generated by rotating a coil or magnet.

However, the power supply should be very limited, and we can further upgrade the power generation process.

Let it be combined with our steam engine, so whether it is Rao Yongxiang or Lu Zhaolin, we cannot say that our steam engine research institute is doing their research."

As Li Yan's favorite student, Zhao Xiaoer naturally has to give advice to his master in this situation.

The word "Dian" is definitely the hottest word in the scientific research circle now, no doubt about it.

How to combine your own research with "electricity" while it is hot. It is a question that everyone is considering.

Obviously, Zhao Xiaoer didn't waste his brains and quickly found a point of combination between the two.

"You mean using a steam engine to drive the magnet to rotate and then achieve the purpose of generating electricity?"

As a big shot in the Tang Dynasty's technology circle, Li Yan naturally has some understanding of various theories.

Not to mention popular things like electricity and magnetism.

"Yes! We can make a relatively large coil and magnet. If such a generator is driven by a steam engine, it will definitely generate a lot of electricity.

Isn’t the Academy’s instrument workshop now studying instruments that measure voltage and current?

At that time, we can directly record the specific data of the situations generated after the implementation of this plan and then publish it in the Journal of Science.

When it comes to transforming steam engines, no one is better at it than us.”

Zhao Xiaoer looked eager to try.

"Yes, you can arrange for someone to do this experiment immediately.

But be careful, if the electricity generated is large, there will be some danger."

Without too much hesitation, Li Yan agreed to Zhao Xiaoer's proposal.

...

"Master, in the latest issue of Science Journal, 80% of the articles above are related to electricity and magnetism.

Obviously, this is already the research direction that Guanshishan Academy attaches most importance to. I think our academy can no longer hesitate."

In the Weishui Academy of Geophysics, Changsun Ming spoke firmly to Yu Wen Shan, the dean of the Institute of Geophysics.

Since Zheng He lost his life due to lightning guidance tests, research on electricity and magnetism in Weishui Academy has once fallen into a state of stagnation.

Whether it is Changsun Chong or Zheng Hai, they are still scared of the new thing about electricity.

"Electricity is dangerous. Even if we no longer do any lightning-guided experiments, we cannot completely avoid additional damage caused by electricity in the laboratory.

Have you considered this question?"

As the dean of the School of Geophysics, Yuwen Shan is no longer a pure scientific researcher.

Of course, the most important reason is that he himself is not good at this aspect.

As Yuwen Kai’s disciple, Yuwen Shan is actually the best at research on the construction of various buildings and bridges.

This aspect is also one of the special projects of Weishui Academy.

"The danger is dangerous, but so many teachers and students in Guanshishan Academy are not afraid of such dangers. We can't hide behind us, right?

Then maybe they might laugh at us.

Yesterday I went to the Imperial College and had a meal with the people from Qujiang Academy.

Now even they have begun to study electricity and various experiments on recent papers in the Journal of Science.

Repeated verification work has been carried out in the laboratory for some experiments.

If we hesitate any more, the status of Weishui Academy in the academic circle will continue to decline."

As a child of the Changsun family, Changsun Ming had a sense of ownership towards Weishui Academy.

Judging from the current situation, as the first batch of graduate students of the School of Internal Medicine of Weishui Academy, he was trained by the Academy as the positioning of the Dean of the School of Internal Medicine of Weishui Academy and even the Dean of the Academy.

"Since you all think this power research can be done, I have no objection.

But what I mean is just like other academies, and re-do the experiments done by Guanshishan Academy, increase your understanding of electricity and magnetism, and then see where to find the entry point."

Although Yuwen Shan didn't really want the limited funds to be included in the relevant research on electricity.

Because the total amount of funds is relatively fixed.

If you invest more in this area, it means you invest less in other places.

Yuwen Shan also hopes to build a bridge on the Yellow River or the Yangtze River in the future.

But he also knew that he had rejected the proposal of the tribe leader Sun Ming.

If I refuse today, it is very likely that the one I will look for will be Changsun Chong or Zheng Hai.

...

"Brother Lu, judging from the current understanding, everyone is very interested in kerosene engine-related projects.

Not only are many workshops beginning to intervene in related parts research, but some workshops also want to produce kerosene engines directly.”

Niu Ye was in a very complicated mood and told Lu Zhaolin about the situation outside.

They are just preparing to make kerosene engines and are very happy to respond positively to everyone, especially those workshop owners who want to enter the production of related parts.

However, some workshops directly want to enter the field of whole-machine production, which is equivalent to forming a direct competition with them.

Don’t think they proposed the concept then, but the final result will be led by others.

That would be embarrassing.

"That's a good thing. If you want to actually produce a kerosene engine, there are many thresholds, and we are very clear about this.

The production of a battery that can be recharged and discharged is not an easy task.

In addition to the production of various parts such as starters and ignition coils, as long as there is one that has not passed the test, you will not be able to make a product that can be used in the end."

Lu Zhaolin is still quite confident in himself.

He didn't think other workshops could make the finished products earlier than their kerosene engine research institute.

"That's right, but the engine is a brand new concept after all.

Whether it is us or others, we have never been in contact with each other before.

Perhaps the system concept we proposed ourselves may not be the most suitable for the current situation.

In case some people find a better way and create a more practical and simpler engine based on us.

That actually has a great impact on us.

Especially the Imperial College, Weishui Academy and Qujiang Academy are all eyeing us Guanshishan Academy.

Want to challenge our position in some emerging fields.”

As a member of Guanshishan Academy, Niuye still has a strong sense of collective honor.

Naturally, he didn't want to see the scene where Guanshishan Academy was surpassed by others.

"There are only a few academies or workshops that have the ability to study engine complete machines in Chang'an City.

If you have concerns about this, just keep an eye on these places.

If you want to make an engine, you will have parts supply in all aspects.

Whether we ourselves or other workshops, it is impossible to keep them completely confidential.

As long as we inquire a little, we should be able to understand the progress of others in a broad sense."

Although Lu Zhaolin felt that Niuye’s concern was unnecessary, he did not object.

After all, he released the technical architecture information of kerosene engines in order to allow more people to enter this field.

This can also be regarded as providing yourself with some inspiration and promoting the real emergence of this engine in disguise.

"Well, I think it's very necessary! I even think that a special institution should be set up in the academy to collect and analyze the cutting-edge status of each discipline.

In this way, every college and every laboratory can avoid people asking for information, which can greatly improve efficiency."

Niuye is a researcher, and he is obviously good at inquiring about information.

Of course, if it is related to his research direction, it is easy to know without asking for it.
