MTL - My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!-Chapter 528 Homemade boiler room, wonderful use of hot stone!
"On April 9th, the weather in the depression was fine, the temperature was -4 degrees to 16 degrees, and the clothing index... Sweater"
"Today's weather has finally begun to show signs of a significant decrease, but fortunately, the sunshine is still very abundant, and there is no need to worry about the intrusion caused by low temperature during the day."
"I received feedback in the morning that the night of the prefab house is a bit cold, and the boiler room and heating pipes must be erected quickly to ensure that the temperature at night is maintained to prevent a large-scale cold incident!"
"Because of the continuous physical work, the food supplies have been consumed very quickly recently, which has greatly exceeded the previously predicted curve. It is estimated that the time for the food to run out is 19 days earlier."
"However, misfortune and good fortune depend on it. After the rapid consumption of food supplies, the physical fitness of all the villagers has improved a lot. Even the women who used to be powerless can now shoulder heavy work!"
"The tree people are still calm as usual, but they are not in a hurry. I don't have to rush to scare the snake for the time being. I will talk about it when I finish dealing with Liberty City."
"The growth trend of the rice leaf seeds is stable, and the sunshine conditions are sufficient. Water today... 220ml!"
"Today's survival points... harvested 967, the balance of survival points is 2110, the harvest point of the collar is 2.4, and the balance is 4.9!"
"Accumulating survival points is still a long way to go. Let's save them first. Find a way to collect ten points, and try to upgrade the resources of this hot stone mine."
"Hey, the sound of the wind blowing today actually brought Lu Yongyi's voice. Wow, they actually found a large island at sea to settle down. It's been a really comfortable life, but the time is up so fast. Na~"
...
"April 10, the weather in the depression was cloudy, the temperature was -6 degrees to 15 degrees, and the clothing index... Sweater jacket"
"As expected, the temperature still maintains a steady downward trend. According to the magnitude, it will drop to minus ten degrees below zero for the first time on the seventh day."
"After urging the construction progress of the boiler room yesterday, I finally finished the general mold at night. After I figured out how to lay the pipes today, I can start to test the heating."
"Winter wheat on arable land can also be planted today. If there are no problems, it is expected that the first batch of grain crops will be harvested in the depression in about 60 natural days, and then the road to self-sufficiency will begin."
"The wonder has already begun to be molded. As long as Ai Jianfeng's iron-making furnace is ready and the first furnace of steel is produced, it can be quickly poured to form a skeleton."
"Speaking of this, Hao Qiang's training speed is not slow, there are all kinds of perverted levels simulated in the virtual reality, two days, although there is still a lot of lack of theoretical knowledge, but in terms of practical experience, it can be Comparing with the hidden agents who have been trained for one or two years, at this speed, there is a high probability that I will be able to return to Liberty City tomorrow!"
"The growth trend of rice leaf seeds is stable...Watering today...300ml"
"Survival point harvest... 670 points, survival point balance 2780, claim point harvest 2.4, balance 7.3!"
"No, there are really fewer and fewer points of survival. If you don't go out and do things, sooner or later, it will drop to one or two hundred points for me. You have to go out and make a big ticket!"
"Today in the sound of the wind..."
"The dwarves deployed in the Blackrock Camp finally withdrew their troops. Did they really think they could blow me up after the repeated horizontal jumps?"
"However... the conflict between the Empire of Light and the Demon Soul Race seems to be more serious, and I don't know what medicine they sell in the gourd. It is clear that the Demon Soul Race has a way to eliminate this war in advance. situation"
"Trouble, trouble, can't we all stay calm at this stage of development? If you have to fight back and forth, it will be difficult to do if it affects the future business of the exchange!"
Standing on Guoshu Mountain, he picked up the pen and wrote the last sentence of the diary, then turned off the system daily information, and Somo took the notebook and pen back into his arms.
The cool wind mixed with the warm light of the sun blows on my face. It was a very hot summer a month ago, but now I feel the dryness before winter.
The leaves of most of the fruit trees on the fruit tree mountain can be considered to be falling off under such a temperature difference and wind, and they are bald and bald.
The previously desolate land is now covered with neat grass, and it is no longer so abstract.
Some artificially opened roads, against the backdrop of such grass, are like faders across the scalp, leaving eye-catching marks.
Aside from other external conditions, the Hope Village trapped in the middle of the depression is like an island in the sea at this time, looking both happy and sad.
Like being isolated from the world, the smoke from the cooking rose from the center of the village, which looked quite different.
"Hey, Director, you are here, everyone has been looking for you for a long time!"
Admiring the "ant moving house" below, and hearing Chen Shen's familiar voice coming from behind, Soma turned his head and laughed.
"Is this the boiler room and the pipes are finally done?"
Chen Shen nodded: "It's done! Yesterday, I worked overtime to lay the skeleton. Today, as soon as the materials are put on, the test drive will start when the director is listed."
"If there is no problem, we can try to turn on the heating for the first time tonight!"
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go!"
As soon as he heard that the boiler room had been fully erected, and that he could start testing for water and air leakage, Su Mo was refreshed, and his brain, which had been tired for two days, suddenly became active again.
The two days of news, although not able to completely relieve the mental exhaustion of the past few days.
But after stopping, Soma did have more plans and preparations for the next mission.
Today, the boiler room is the top priority.
As long as it can be ensured that the heating can operate stably according to the previous design, the biggest threat will be lost this winter.
Even in the terrifying and extremely cold weather of minus 40 degrees, relying on the super-powerful heating, Soma is confident that the loss of the depression will definitely be several orders of magnitude less than other New World territories!
It's even possible...
Passed without injury!
After walking down the mountain, the two quickly came to the back of the village, that is, next to the previous house, along the road that had been opened.
As a well-known member of the energy conversion equipment, the structure of the boiler is not complicated, and the technical barriers to manufacturing are mostly in the material.
Its main working principle is also well understood, that is, when hot water is heated in the furnace, the water vapor generated drives the water flow through the laid pipes, and the cycle is repeated, and the heat is continuously released on the way.
As a big country with thermal power generation, Huaxia's boilers can be seen in almost first-tier cities and small villages with a hundred people.
From far away, looking at the familiar shapes and the muddy houses built outside, Soma couldn't help but get excited.
"Good guy, I missed this thing every winter in the south in the past few years, but now I didn't expect to come to the end of the world, but I made it myself."
"This is a good baby!"
In front of the boiler room, there are already more than 30 workers in charge, busy carrying out various debugging.
Everything is kept simple, except for the "Old acquaintance" red cloth hanging on the wooden sign above, that is, a decent ribbon hanging on the door, which means cutting the ribbon!
"Director, the boiler construction was very successful. I guarantee you with my personality that there will be absolutely no problems this time."
"As long as there is no trouble in the pressure test, the boiler is a non-technical thing, as long as it is properly maintained, it will not be a problem to use it for more than ten years!"
Patting his chest, Ai Jianfeng, with a black face, walked up with full pride.
As the saying goes, new officials take office as three fires!
In the past two days, he has been busy enough, except for the necessary sleep and rest, Ai Jianfeng is almost in continuous rotation.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of each project, even the basic shoveling and material selection, he has done everything by himself.
It is no exaggeration to say that Ai Jianfeng alone has achieved more than 70% of the efforts excluding the manpower construction part, which is extremely amazing.
And this is also the reason why he dares to pack a ticket.
"Oh? So confident, Jianfeng!"
"Don't worry, Director, we must be professional in the field of machinery!"
Taking the scissors from the person next to him, and then handing them to Su Mo, Ai Jianfeng's face was full of eagerness to try.
Looking at him like this, Soma didn't ink anything.
Amid the neat applause of more than 30 people, Soma strode forward, first pulling the red cloth above the plaque, revealing the three characters of the heating room, and then waving scissors to divide the ribbon in two.
Wow!
At the end of the simple ceremony, more than 30 people entered the boiler room in a very orderly manner and began to prepare as if they had practiced well.
Ai Jianfeng also went to the part where the instrument was placed in the middle, and began to debug the air pressure in the boiler to detect possible problems.
After a long while, as the pointers on several meters stabilized and the pressure indicator light turned green, the sound of water flow began to sound as Ai Jianfeng pressed it lightly.
As with the pre-heating test in the north, this step was done by pressurizing the interior, which in turn forced the flow of water to rise through the pipes.
Among them, if there is water leakage or there is no seam, the pressure indicator will fluctuate up and down.
And this is also the first step in finding the problem.
"The cycle progress is 30%, the pressure index is stable, the water flow speed is stable, pass!"
"30%...open...gate...!"
As soon as Ai Jianfeng's voice fell, a waiting loud voice rushed out and shouted at the people on the other side of the village.
With a bang, the baffle stuck at 30% was unscrewed by the person waiting above the pipe, and the water flowed down again.
"The cycle progress is 70%, and the pressure index fluctuates. Detect whether there is a water leakage problem in the middle section and report it in time!"
After opening most of the time, the barometric pressure gauges among the three pressure gauges immediately began to show a certain fluctuation range.
After nervously shouting to the outside, after thinking about it, Ai Jianfeng simply put his head down and rushed out.
"Hey, this index is really strange. It doesn't feel like a water leak or air leak, but something is pumping air pressure and disappearing."
Without Ai Jianfeng, everyone naturally turned their attention to Soma.
No stage fright. Relying on his experience of playing in the boiler room when he was a child, Soma stepped forward carelessly and began to judge.
"The speed of the water flow is stable, there is no problem, and if you want to affect the air pressure, you can only..."
"The temperature inside is constantly dropping, which in turn causes air pressure fluctuations?"
Guessing a possibility, Soma immediately opened the system panel, and simply issued an appraisal to the boiler room.
Different from the faint green light before, for this "big guy" in the territory, the light from the system's identification is finally much deeper, and it has some yellow spots.
As the light flickered, the attribute panel of the boiler room slowly lit up.
[The earth-made boiler room with rough craftsmanship (ordinary-: small flaws)]
[Description]: The boiler room manufactured by the rammed earth process can maintain the heating demand under the pipeline length of less than 500 meters. In terms of pressure, the natural uncertainty brought about by rammed earth can only be said to be so-so, once it burns Excessive pressure creates a high risk of frying.
However, considering the complete prevention and control measures inside and the standard monitoring code table, the probability of such risks will be reduced to a certain extent.
The current quality has declined due to the presence of a hot stone at 63.26 meters in the pipeline, which produces heat absorption and release. If this hot stone is removed, the overall quality of the boiler room will return to normal.
Replacing all the pipes with hot stone materials can greatly improve the quality of the boiler room and produce a special effect.
【Boiler separation】: Domestic boiler
【Type of fuel】: diesel, kerosene, heavy oil, coal, wood...hot stone (reusable), natural gas, liquefied gas, biogas...
[Boiler pressure]: atmospheric pressure (a standard atmospheric pressure)
[Special Ability]: Locked (Upgrade the quality to the excellent level to unlock)
[Heating intensity]: Current pipeline length: 341 meters, temperature: 14.1 degrees (full load: 36 degrees, economical: 24 degrees, heat preservation: 20 degrees)
[Evaluation]: If you can keep upgrading him, maybe you can get a... alchemy furnace?
It is extremely rare that the system has given a lower-than-normal evaluation of the quality of the item for the first time.
Of course, this does not mean that the boiler room had any congenital craft defects when it was built, but that some ghost has sneaked a hot stone into the pipeline.
Under the condition of unsaturated, the hot stone will continuously absorb the heat of the water and reduce the air pressure inside the pipe, which will cause the barometer to oscillate from side to side.
After absorbing enough heat, it will generate heat again, and on the basis of the previous, it will produce a pressurization effect.
"Sure enough, it's this little thing. I searched for a long time to find a piece, but I didn't expect someone to throw this thing into the pipe."
"If it wasn't for me testing the properties of the superheated stone, and the system as an aid, I am afraid that in the face of this situation, I would have to dismantle the pipeline again and check it carefully."
You don't have to go out and look at ~www.novelbuddy.com~ Su Mo can guess Ai Jianfeng's confused expression at this moment, unable to find the reason.
This hot stone has been completely integrated into the inside of the iron pipe. Even if you know the location and want to remove it, there is no other way but to replace the pipe.
However, looking at the survival point in the lower right corner of the system interface, which had just broken through 3,000 points, slightly painful, Su Mo still stared, and opened the attached page of the appraisal panel.
[Upgrading method 1]: Iron boiler: All the rammed earth of the boiler is upgraded to iron, and the pressure resistance of the boiler is slightly enhanced, so that more steam can be transported to the distance through longer pipelines. The all-iron boiler material will have a small loss of rigidity. In the face of extreme weather, it may increase the risk due to thermal expansion and contraction. The upgrade requires survival points: 2990 (can be invested in the corresponding upgrade material (iron block) Reduce, the maximum reduction is 2650)
[Upgrade method 2]: High-efficiency boiler: upgrade the rammed earth material of the boiler to a higher-grade heat-resistant clay, greatly increase the heat storage capacity of the boiler, increase the pressure resistance of the boiler to a moderate extent, and slightly improve the risk resistance of the boiler At the same time, upgrade the material of the iron pipe and add a high-strength thermal insulation coating to it to prevent the loss of heat during the circulation of steam and water. The upgrade requires survival points: 4580 (the corresponding upgrade material (heat-resistant clay; Iron block; copper block; high-quality water source) to be reduced, the maximum reduction rate is 3190)
[Upgrade method 3]: Alchemy furnace: The upgrade effect is unknown, the upgrade risk is unknown, the upgrade strength is unknown, and the upgrade requires survival points: 62350 (the corresponding upgrade material (hot stone) can be invested to reduce, the maximum reduction rate is 60000)
