Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

"Can you still contact other places now?" Hearing the researchers say that they need to report the matter about the isotope generator and isotope thermoelectric battery production line to the higher-level special team, Chen Xin couldn't help but wonder how they were going to get in touch.

Regarding this question, the researchers answered Chen Xin in great detail: "Our main means of communicating with the outside world is still relying on telephone lines and national defense optical cables. These are the national communication networks that existed before the disaster, in order to deal with satellites. Communication requirements after failure.

As for the communication base station we planned to build before, the construction of the communication network between cities was delayed due to the impact of the snowstorm, and it may not be able to continue until the snowstorm subsided. "

Chen Xin nodded clearly, but asked another question: "What about radio communication?"

"Radio communication is basically useless. The interference of blizzards is too serious. Even if we can get in touch, the signal is intermittent, and we can't communicate effectively at all." In addition to the national defense optical cable, only the radio is a relatively easy means of communication.

However, none of these communication methods can be used at will. National defense optical fiber cables are related to national defense and belong to military facilities, and are not open to the public under normal circumstances. Although wired telephones can be used for civilian use, their bandwidth is also limited and limited by telephone lines. Only the places where the telephones are installed can communicate with each other.

Radio communication is a relatively good means of communication, but it is difficult to get in touch with others in this blizzard weather.

This is also the reason why scientific research departments and countries tried to build a communication network before. Although this kind of communication network still uses wireless communication, the signal between the base station and the base station can still be guaranteed to be stable, so that an effective and Stable communication network.

It's just that now the entire Yan Kingdom is shrouded in a blizzard, there is really no way to continue the construction, and the communication base station that has already been built can only be temporarily suspended.

Because this scientific research institution is involved in important national scientific research projects, the telephone lines and national defense optical cables are connected. When necessary, it can directly contact the higher-level departments or even higher-level existences, and it can also mobilize the army.

In the current situation, this scientific research institution can be said to be the most powerful department in the city.

Chen Xin understood the situation and didn't say anything more. After discussing it with Qin Lan, he stayed in this scientific research institution temporarily.

In terms of accommodation conditions, this scientific research institution is quite good. The original Polytechnic Institute is the only university in the city that has good conditions.

After being transformed into a shelter, in order to provide logistical support for scientific researchers and the confidentiality needs of scientific research institutions, although the Polytechnic Institute is one of several medium-sized shelters in the city, its population is actually not large, which makes the The accommodation is arguably the best of the many shelters in the city.

But even so, the cold here is still the same, and the temperature is not as comfortable as above zero after the renovation of Chen Xin at the city police station.

Fortunately, this is not a problem for Chen Xin. Putting on power armor can ensure that he is not cold, and the Polytechnic Institute itself has a boiler, which is a better boiler than other shelters. If necessary, Chen Xin can completely put it here. The boiler was also remodeled.

In fact, when the leaders of the Polytechnic Institute learned that Chen Xin had remodeled the boiler of the police station shelter and came to the Polytechnic Institute, they were already looking forward to him being able to remodel the boiler of the Polytechnic Institute.

And the leaders of these polytechnic institutes did come to ask Chen Xin to help transform the boiler.

Chen Xin did not refuse this matter, but it took time to raise the materials needed for the renovation, and Chen Xin did not deal with it immediately.

However, in addition to the Polytechnic Institute, other shelters also need boiler renovation. After receiving the notification from the Municipal Police Department, the city government also attaches great importance to this matter.

And the idea of ​​the city government is different. In addition to wanting to transform the heating boilers in each shelter, they also hope that Chen Xin can help transform the power generation boilers of the power plant.

From the perspective of the city government, the heating capacity of the heating boilers in the shelters will be improved after the renovation, which will consume more coal, but in turn, it can reduce the consumption of electric heating and save this part of the coal. However, the total consumption of coal-fired has not improved much.

The transformation of boilers in power plants can further improve the combustion efficiency and thermal efficiency, so that the thermal energy contained in coal combustion can be better utilized, and the consumption of coal combustion can be saved.

Therefore, the city government specially sent an official to find Chen Xin, and he explained the city government's ideas in detail, hoping that he could come up with a feasible renovation plan to help the city government complete the heating boilers and power plants in various shelters. Retrofit of power boilers.

The request made by the city government is what Chen Xin intends to do. Both parties have the same idea. This matter is naturally negotiated quickly. As for how to reform and how to implement it, it requires careful discussion and discussion. negotiated.

Chen Xin happened to have nothing else to do, and the city government was more concerned about this matter, so naturally it had plenty of time and energy to discuss it.

After detailed discussions, the entire renovation plan was finalized. According to calculations, if Chen Xin can complete the renovation of the heating boilers and power generation boilers of all large and medium-sized shelters in the city, the total coal consumption in the city can be reduced. 10% reduction.

This is already a very satisfactory result, because while saving coal, the heating problem of each shelter can also be solved, although the outside temperature is still maintained at a very low level under the raging snowstorm , but the interior of each shelter can at least break through zero, let the temperature return to zero, and prevent a large number of survivors from frostbite or put on hypothermia.

And this kind of transformation is also a very beneficial thing for Chen Xin. The survival points he has accumulated may consume a wave, but the subsequent increase in daily survival points is a continuous income, which is not a loss for Chen Xin.

So after drawing up the plan, Chen Xin agreed to the city government's request, and the city government immediately began to actively allocate the materials Chen Xin needed to upgrade the boiler.

After sending away the officials from the city government who came to discuss the renovation plan, Chen Xin smiled at Qin Lan and said, "Now the problems in the urban area can be solved, and people in other shelters can also be much better off!"

Someone mentioned geothermal power generation, yes, this is indeed a technology that can be used, and I plan to use this technology in the future, but the problem is buddy, this thing really does not come out of my mouth, or it is more practical or more practical than isotope power generation. It's simple, not to mention how to drill a few kilometers of deep geothermal wells, and how many places in the country can drill wells. If this technology is as simple and good as you said, why is the country not vigorously promoting and applying it now?
