Chapter 554 Set a small goal
You must know that the eight of them have been talented since childhood, and they all have unique talents in researching various mechanical inventions.
No one has ever dared to look down on me like this.
"Miss Lu, don't underestimate our Mo clan." The Mo clan leader said with a cold face.
Although this drawing is a bit complicated, they can't understand it yet.
But he believed that as long as they were given some time, they would be able to study this thing called a steam train.
"I don't mean to look down on you. What I state is just the facts. Let's take a look at this first."
Lu Yunluo casually pulled out a book from the bookshelf, "If you can make a steam engine, I believe you can make a steam train."
If you want to make a steam train, you must first make a steam engine.
This steam engine is the key core of the steam train.
The principle is to use coal to boil water, turn the water into steam, and then use the power of the steam to push the piston to make the train run.
Simply put, it is a process of converting thermal energy into kinetic energy.
In fact, this drawing of a steam train was just brought out by her to attract these old men. Of course she knew how difficult it would be based on the current industrial level.
But since she has established Donglan College, the future research direction of Donglan College will definitely be in this direction.
If you set a small goal for them early now, maybe it will be achieved in a few years?
You know, this steam engine is so important!
Its appearance is not only used for steam trains.
In modern times, the emergence of the steam engine directly triggered mankind's first industrial revolution.
It prompted the former handicraft workshops to be directly transformed into the production of large-scale machine industry, and promoted the development of all aspects of human society.
It has extraordinary epoch-making significance.
If these old guys can really do it, they will really be famous throughout history.
Everyone looked confused, steam engine?
What is this?
How come the things in Miss Lu’s hands are things they have never heard of?
Lu Yunluo handed the book to them, "Have you ever seen the phenomenon where the steam lifts the lid of the kettle after the water in the kettle is boiled?"
Everyone nodded.
This phenomenon is extremely common, of course they have seen it before.
Lu Yunluo continued, "That is the power of steam."
"A steam engine is a reciprocating power machine that converts the energy of this steam into mechanical work..."
In the huge library, eight old men listened thoughtfully to Lu Yunluo's talk about knowledge they had never heard before, their eyes getting brighter and brighter.
In front of their eyes, it seemed as if a door to a new world was slowly opening to them.
Yinshuang on the side held her chin and looked at her queen with admiration.
Although she didn't understand what the empress was talking about.
But she knew that the kind of things the empress talked about must be very powerful.
It's over, it's over.
It was another day when I felt that I was not worthy of being my queen's personal maid.
After Lu Yunluo finished explaining the functions and principles of steam engines, the old men fell into deep thought.
The elder picked up the blueprint of the steam engine and read it carefully.
This drawing of the steam engine is much simpler than the drawing of the steam train.
At least he can understand a lot of this drawing.
Because of this, he is now full of curiosity and interest in this steam engine.
Chapter completed!
