The structure of the steam engine is not complicated. Compared with the internal combustion engine, electric motor and other power machinery, the steam engine has the lowest technical and technological requirements, and even many of its mechanical parts can be manufactured by hand, after all, when the steam engine was manufactured in the Watt era, the first steam engines were manufactured by semi-manual use.

But even so, Zhu Guoqiang still has to consider Chongzhen's 12 years of technical level, in this era of no machine tools, no welding, all by hand, to make a steam engine out of thin air, obviously unrealistic, so, he needs to fully take into account the technical level of this world, otherwise everything is empty talk.

Although he could get a lot of drawings from another world, he couldn't build a steam engine without solving the manufacturing problem, and the truth was never as simple as he thought. The machine tools are transported, and the workers who need to start the machine tools need to teach them to process parts with the machine tools, and they need to be taught to understand the drawings, otherwise everything is just a pile of waste paper.

And bringing the machine tool also involves the power problem......

Well, the problem is a bit complicated, so let's solve it as much as possible!

First of all, we must make the simplest steam engine!

"The question is simple, although it is not easy to find drawings of early steam engines in China, but there are many geek websites abroad, where you can even find drawings of Watt's first steam engine, and of course, those drawings are redrawn by modern people according to models."

A person's wisdom is always limited, but fortunately we have netizens, enthusiastic netizens, especially when Zhu Guoqiang has become a "mysterious rich second generation" and will continue to send red envelopes to netizens who reply to the post, his crossing post has long become a hot post on the website.

No one will refuse a monetary reward, and no one will miss the excitement.

When a person's suggestion was adopted, soon, the opposition sounded into a piece, after all, in the world of the Internet, it has always been agreed with opposition, which is fair, and when "Zhiyuan Cruise" gave several well-known geek websites, there were immediately netizens who objected.

"Drawings are easy to solve, the key is the machine, without the machine, can you let the blacksmith at that time manually punch out the steam engine? Don't forget, Watt also made the steam engine because of Wilkinson's horizontal chamber bed, without which there would be no cylinder. ”

"Rightly, the boring machine made an important contribution to Watt's steam engine. Without the steam engine, the first wave of the Industrial Revolution would not have been possible. One of the main difficulties in the manufacture of new steam engines is the sealing of pistons and large cylinders, which was solved by John Wilkinson, who developed a horizontal bore bed that could be used for precision boring and can be used in the manufacture of cylinders for steam engines, which solved the problem of cylinder tightness. Without precision bore machining, there would be no steam engine! ”

Since someone has raised a problem in this regard, it is natural that someone will come up with a solution. After all, everyone knows that the respondent of this post is a rich second generation, and he is very generous, and he often gives hundreds of tips.

To be precise, Wilkinson's horizontal boring machine is only more accurate than the old vertical bore, not "precision", it is just a wood and iron structure of the processing cannon drilling machine, it is a hollow cylindrical boring bar, both ends are installed on the bearing, the gun body rotates around the drill bit, and the horizontal bore of the bore bed replaces the vertical bore mode, which is not so much "precise", but more accurate. ”

When answering this question, "Zhiyuan Cruise" even took the initiative to add a link, which is the drawing structure of Wilkinson's horizontal chamber bed. After opening the link, Zhu Guoqiang only studied it for a while and figured out the principle.

How does it work...... It's so simple that it's outrageous, and Zhu Guoqiang believes that he doesn't even need a drawing, as long as he holds this structural drawing, he can make it.

But even though the explanation was very detailed, someone still replied.

"Motivation! What about motivation? ”

"Hydraulic!"

"Before there was no steam engine, it was all water power, long live the waterwheel!"

"It's not just the water wheel, it's the water turbine, the water turbine is efficient, and it's not like the water wheel, which is affected by the winter."

"It's true that a well-designed hydro turbine could reach thousands of horsepower in the 19th century, and until around World War I, there were many factories in Europe that used hydro turbines to power their factories."

"Axle transmission, earth axis transmission, with a water turbine, you can even take off the transmission motor from the modern belt machine tool, and connect the sky axis and the earth axis with the transmission belt."

"Machine tools! Answer: Isn't there a time and space door, just bring a few machining centers over directly. ”

"Workers, workers are the key! The machine can be brought over, but what about the workers who operate the machine? Were 17th-century craftsmen able to operate machine tools? ”

"I can, I'm an eighth-level turner, I don't want to be paid, just give me a house, and then give me Liu Ruyi!"

"I'm also level eight, don't want Liu to be like this, just a group of delicate little girls......"

Well, the building is crooked again.

However, even so, Zhu Guoqiang still got the answers he needed. Of course, not everyone will crook this building, and while the building is crooked, there are still people who continue to answer questions seriously.

"Therefore, it is necessary to connect the technology, first on the Wilkinson-type bore machine and the simple wood and iron structure machine tool. If necessary, several modern machines can be added. ”

"If you want to use a small hydroelectric generator with a low head, its structure is simple, as long as the generator is replaced with a drive shaft, you can provide power to the factory, if it is an ultra-low head, you can even use a steel barrage without damming. Of course, you can even use the generator directly if you wish. Then take electricity! Of course, this involves a series of problems such as power voltage regulation, and it always requires several technicians......"

"I sign up, I sign up, I am an employee of the State Grid, ten years of experience, I don't ask for anything in return, I just ask the Lord to take me to the Ming Dynasty ......"

"You don't want to reciprocate, you're thinking about Qin Huai Bayan!"

"Actually, you don't need Bayan, as long as there is a Yangzhou thin horse, it's okay......"

"Not necessarily a thin horse, in fact, the pretty little girl ring is better, you think about a row of little girl rings wearing maid clothes standing in front of you, shouting "Hello boss", that day ......"

Yes, the building is right, and it is crooked again, but before the crooked building, Zhu Guoqiang has already got his answer,
