Chapter 552 How to stabilize the power output of the steam engine?
Zhou Yanru and Zheng Hongkui were engaged in vital negotiations in Dengzhou, and at this time Shandong's drought relief work was also coming to an end. Since Zhou Yanru was in Shandong and had already notified the local government, he would conduct inspections after the recruitment and security negotiations were concluded.
Therefore, during this period, local officials did not slack off because the drought relief work was coming to an end. On the contrary, they worked harder and more seriously.
Huge amounts of anti-disaster funds have been invested in local areas. No matter how big the regulatory posture is, it is inevitable that some of the funds will not be implemented in place, and some of the money will be wasted by large and small bureaucracies. When they heard that Zhou Yanru was going to
When I was inspecting the place, I had a guilty conscience, and I was afraid that an important official like Lao Zhou would find out and be punished!
Although the Advisory Council currently in charge of Lao Zhou is not like the Cabinet and the Supervisory Council, which can directly deal with delinquent and illegal officials, if they are held accountable, the impact will be more serious than those of these two companies. The accountability of these two companies is still a big deal.
It falls on an individual, and once the Advisory Council makes a move, it will hit the entire yamen, and people will not care about individuals! This is also Zhu Youjian's breakdown of the powers of the three yamen in the system design.
The Wang Huashen brothers have been fighting on the front line of drought relief in Changyi County for several months. Originally, they had no work to do now. It was time to take a vacation and return to Beijing. But after the Agricultural University heard that Zhou Yanru was going to inspect Shandong during this period, they specially
A message was sent to those involved in drought relief in Shandong, asking them to continue to stick to the front line and wait until Da Sikong completed his inspection before leaving.
To put it bluntly, the purpose of doing this is to let the big leaders see their work. If they withdraw, wouldn't all the credit for drought relief go to the local officials in Shandong? Professors may not need to pay too much attention to these things, but
The management cannot ignore these things. If a big boss like Zhou Yanru says one or two words of affirmation, how much benefit it means to the school, anyone with a little bit of ethics in official circles can understand.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
"Boss, what do you think is the use of this superficial document issued by the school? How much can we do for drought relief now? Apart from causing trouble to the local people, staying here is just a waste of money, I think.
, it is better for us to go back to school early, compile the gains from drought relief during this period, and prepare for the next research." Wang Huawei, who was idle at the temporary residence, complained to his brother. He felt that the school's arrangement was purely
What a waste of time!
"Second brother, since it is the school's arrangement, let's cooperate with peace of mind. Why are you talking so much gossip? Besides, staying here may not be just for idleness. There is still a lot of work to do."
"What work is there to do? At most, it's just to count the final harvest of autumn grains. We don't have to keep track of this data to calculate it. We can already get a rough idea of how the growth is! It's better to go back to school and hurry up.
Let’s systematically summarize our practice in the past few months to lay a solid foundation for next year’s drought resistance experiment. Maybe we will be able to form systematic results in a few years and make great contributions to the country’s agricultural affairs.”
"Brother Wei feels that his vision is a bit narrow when he looks at the problem in this way. During his stay in Changyi, Brother Wei's biggest gain is that he has a deeper understanding of farming. Now, Brother Wei has thought of a solution that is conducive to promoting and stabilizing agriculture.
I am taking advantage of this period of time to test this idea and see if it is feasible."
"Brother, tell me what direction you have in mind!"
"The steam water dragon has played a great role in fighting this drought. You must agree with me, right? The direction I think of is to change it to make it more useful."
"Change the water dragon to be more useful?"
"Exactly, Brother Wei discovered that if the scroll bucket rotates at a higher speed, it can lift the water higher than the bucket itself. I have done an improvement experiment with the master craftsman from the Tiangong Bureau, and we can use only one bottom leaf
, and then by connecting a water inlet and an outlet pipe, the water can be lifted to a higher height than the previous bucket-type water faucet."
"Really? Does the outlet pipe have to be vertical? Or can it be turned?" The bucket-type water pipe has too many restrictions and is very troublesome to install. So after Wang Huawei listened to his elder brother's description, he immediately thought that if the water pipe could be bent,
This will make the power system and the water lifting system less closely related.
"It can turn, and it will have little impact on its own lift after turning."
"Okay! After tomorrow, we will do this and strive to make this improvement experiment reliable. In this way, the use of the steam water dragon will be even greater."
"Boy, don't worry. The biggest trouble now is not the improvement in this area! We found that as long as the blade shaft rotates at sufficient speed, it is not difficult to improve. The rotation speed can be increased by using a large gear with a small gear, but the problem
It falls on the steam engine itself. Because the speed of the steam engine itself is high and low, it is naturally implicated in the speed of the blade shaft. This ultimately leads to unstable water lifting. Sometimes the water can be lifted and sometimes it cannot. We now need to
The biggest difference between this improved water lifting method and the previous bucket water lifting method is that the previous method does not affect whether the water is lifted regardless of the speed of the speed, it is just that the water is large and the water is small. But with this method now, once the speed is not enough
The water cannot be lifted up, and the rotational speed is too high, and the force of the water column raised is too great, making it difficult to control it."
"What should I do? According to my brother, the key to the problem now is how to make the speed of the steam engine even, from high to low. But when I watched people burning the steam engine, I found that although the speed of this thing can be adjusted by adjusting the firepower,
But it is impossible to maintain stability and uniform speed for a long time.”
"Yes! The master craftsmen and I have been thinking about it for several days, but we still haven't figured out a way. Since we can't go back to the capital now, we will use this free time to do some more research and see if we can find it.
Solution. Although our current experimental conditions are not as good as those in Beijing, it is still no problem to basically carry out experiments, and it is more comfortable here than in Beijing, so it may be a good opportunity."
"Okay! Let's do this tomorrow morning. Although I don't know much about machinery and the like, I can still help you and the master craftsmen with some odd jobs. I hope I can help you make better products.
Use water dragon."
Both brothers have the kind of research character. Once the research direction and work content are announced, their minds are set and they no longer think about other things. It doesn’t matter whether Zhou Yanru comes to inspect the work or when he returns.
Beijing, anyway, as long as we can develop something that is actually usable, we can work anywhere.
