Online Game: Island War

The working principle of the steam engine, the source of power, where does it come from?

It's not that after water is heated and boiled to become water vapor, its volume will expand extremely, expanding by 1557 times!

The high air pressure generated by the rapid expansion of the volume will push the piston inside the steam engine to do mechanical movement, thus generating power?

Now the liquid state changes to the gaseous state and only expands 3 times the volume, how much pressure can be generated?

It is estimated that even the piston lever cannot be pushed, so what else can it drive?

Now I fully understand why the steam engine is sold at the price of cabbage, because once you enter the pit, you will find out after 16 months that it is not even worth the price of cabbage.....

Similarly, now Lei Jiu doesn't need to rush to study artificial oil, because the internal combustion engine, like the steam engine, has been castrated by this hateful world.

As for the petrochemical industry, although there are still some ideas, but without the huge attraction of the internal combustion engine, Lei Jiu's power is not so great. After all, man-made oil itself cannot be regarded as a low-end technology, even the simplest coal-based synthetic oil. .

Of course, we still have to do it for sure, but the priority has been lowered a few notches.

Also, at the end of the day, the most troublesome thing in the heart, gunpowder with the same cabbage price, will also be swept into the garbage dump by this cruel rule.

┭┮﹏┭┮

The power of gunpowder is reflected in the violent combustion, the release of a large amount of gas, and the strong pressure to generate huge thrust or explosive force.

The air pressure can't go up, the thrust is weak, what power can a bullet with a single-digit initial velocity have?

It's a waste of energy, but it can only shoot a dozen or twenty meters away, and the shells can't explode. What's the use of a cannon that can only hold solid bullets?

Ah~! My machine gun cannon! My tank plane! My cruiser battleship!

The system's tactic is really ruthless, and it directly cuts off all explosive thermal weapons. In the future, it can only develop electromagnetic guns, pulse guns, and laser cannons, but the technical requirements of those things are really a bit high. He estimated that the entire ship On the colony spaceship, there is no one who can build these things.

However, Lei Jiu can be sure that the core of the spaceship will definitely build these things.

Because the spacecraft itself uses these things as defensive weapons. After all, in space, under the vacuum state, explosive thermal weapons have little effect.

As far as Lei Jiu knew, the center of the earth can not only maintain these energy weapons, but also has a ready-made production line on the spacecraft, which can directly produce a batch in a short time.

I don't know if I would like to share some of it and send it to him in the game.

Alas~!

For a moment, although he had no sword to draw, he looked around in a daze.

Steam engines, steam turbines, and internal combustion engines are all impossible to appear again.

Even if it comes out, an advanced steam boiler the size of a house can only provide 1 horsepower of power. That situation is too embarrassing!

Without machine guns, cannons, aircraft and tanks, Lei Jiu can still accept it. After all, personal combat power is relatively strong in this world, and cold weapon wars are not without success.

But when Huanghuang Island grows in size, there will be no cars, trains, or ships, and the transportation problems will cause him a headache to death.

There are only two things that can limit the conquests of those powerful empires in ancient times, one is transportation, and the other is logistics.

I hope that the system will not design a total of two to three hundred years of R\u0026D investment for him on the issue of the generator!

But thinking about the insidiousness of the system, it is not impossible!

Especially now, the research projects in the entire power area are dark, he can't get in at all, and he doesn't even know the conditions to open this area, how can he be so depressed.

Think about it carefully, even if the system is not too restricted in the power technology area,

Without steam turbines, wouldn't thermal power plants never be able to run?

This is the easiest and most important way of generating electricity in the early days of the electric power era. Without steam turbines, thermal power plants have also entered the ranks of castration.

Even though the age of electric power is not yet known, from now on, he must plan ahead and create conditions for other natural environments that can be converted into electric energy.

It seems that in the future, in the layout of Huanghuang Island, several large rivers must be consciously created to prepare for the future large-scale hydropower station.

As for wind power and solar power generation..., considering efficiency issues, they cannot be used as a pillar power generation method for large-scale urban electricity consumption, and can only be used as a support to fill in leaks.

Tidal power?

In other words, on several islands in this world, he has never seen such a thing as the ebb and flow of the tide!

Nuclear power plants... well, this one doesn't need to be planned, the system is not stuck on nuclear technology until the end of the game, then it's all a big deal.

Looking at it in such a circle, Huanghuang Island will really enter the era of electricity in the future, and how to ensure power supply is also a big problem!

A change to the change of physical state directly abolished how many molding technologies, Lei Jiu sighed.

No wonder he always feels that the water vapor in this world is always so thick that even the heat from the vat containing rice can cover the figure next to him, which is even more exaggerated than in a sauna room. The reason is that the density of water vapor has increased , the kind that becomes very large.

At the same time, he also found a reasonable explanation for another incident.

Why did he feel that the Qi of grains that he occasionally released would be so stinking?

The answer is already very clear, the density of fart is high, the concentration is high, naturally... vomit~!

Similarly, if the gas density is high, it is difficult to increase the flow speed of the air, but what is the flow of the air? Wind! What is the speed of the air flow? wind speed! Therefore, windy geniuses are relatively rare here. At least since he entered the game, he has basically never encountered any windy days.

However, with the exaggerated gas density in this world, once there is a big storm, the power is probably much more terrifying than typhoons and tornadoes on the earth!

Correspondingly, clouds are more likely to turn into rain and fall!

Considering the exaggerated ocean area of ​​the whole world, it seems that in these islands distributed in the sea, there is basically no possibility of Gobi, desert and other landforms due to lack of water.

It stands to reason that if the air density is so high, the air resistance will inevitably increase a lot.

He swung his fist vigorously, and while concentrating on sensing, he did notice a sense of stagnation.

This sense of sluggishness does exist, but it is far less obvious than Lei Jiu imagined. It is completely incomparable to the feeling of punching in the water. If you don't experience it carefully, you really won't notice it.

Seeing that his island owner suddenly kept silent, his face was cloudy and uncertain, he bowed his head in thought for a while, and then stood up and punched again, even Nangong Qi began to wonder if the island owner was really sick?

Looking at this situation, it seems to be the legendary hysteria?

How can this be good!

People who suffer from hysteria seem to be unable to be disturbed?

Neither Nangong Yu nor Luo Zheng dared to speak out, for fear of scaring the island owner into a fright.

"Huh? What's the matter with you two?"

Noticing the careful expressions on their faces and their light hands and feet, Lei Jiu was puzzled when he recovered.

"My lord, are you alright?"

"What can I do?"

"But just now..." Luo Zheng was about to say something more, but Nangong Yu directly took the conversation away, "It's as long as your lord is fine!"

Although he didn't understand what charades the two were playing, it must have something to do with his silence just now, and he explained, "I figured out something just now, and it's related to some research projects I saw at the research center today!"

No longer entangled in the reason for the winking between the two, he suddenly remembered that he still had something to ask Nangong Chen.

"By the way, Nangong, what's the procedure for new people on the island to get married?"

"Oh~! Go to our household registration management office to register first, and then the kitchen team will support a private seat for the couple to hold a wedding!"

"Are there many newlyweds on the island?"

"It's not too many now. After all, our settlement has not been established for a long time. The young men and women below have only a short contact time, and there are only a few of them who get married!"

Yo, do you know about flash marriages?

"Where do you usually hold banquets? I don't seem to have seen them before!"

Lei Jiu was a little curious. After all, he was not Nangong who sat in the office every day. He spent most of the day working or wandering outside, but he never met him once.

"It's in the small forest to the west, and it's the place where Luo Zheng and his militia gathered before.

Over there is the place where the kitchen brigade dries fish, and the trees are full of long dragons made up of clothed sea fish, so some people below call the wedding banquet a fish and dragon banquet! "

Is it a fish and dragon feast with only salted fish?

The corners of Lei Jiu's eyes suddenly became sour...
