Chapter 247: NdFeB Permanent Magnets
Finally, some Japanese discovered the business opportunity in Sapporo, after all, in a city of 100,000 people, any businessman wants to get a piece of the pie.
However, although the Far Eastern Kingdom does not prohibit foreigners from coming to Sapporo, it does not allow foreigners to do business and run enterprises in the country, they are just tourists, they can only consume, not make money, and they must report to the police station regularly, which is more restrictive.
This is just a trivial matter, Yang Wenli, who is designing generators and water turbines, does not know, and it does not affect the development of the Far Eastern Kingdom, and everyone is still living a happy life.
One day two months later, Wang Rucheng found Yang Wenli again to report the good news: "Your Majesty, we have finally developed a NdFeB permanent magnet, which is really magnetic, please go and test it!" ”
"Where?" Yang Wenli asked in surprise.
"In the laboratory, its magnetism is too strong, Wei Chen doesn't dare to take it away, Your Majesty, please go and see it for yourself!"
"Good!" Yang Wenli responded happily and left.
When he arrived in the laboratory, Yang Wenli picked up the bar-shaped permanent magnet with trembling hands and personally tested its magnetic strength.
"Your Majesty, we don't know if this is a NdFeB material, we have experimented with several materials that have strong magnetism, and we chose the one with the strongest magnetism."
"It doesn't matter, what we want is its strong magnetism, it can significantly improve the efficiency of power generation, it doesn't matter if it's NdFeB or cobalt-samarium magnets.
However, because it is too magnetic, brittle, and not resistant to oxidation, you have to find a way to coat it with a layer of zinc, so that it can be considered the final product. ”
"Zinc? Is it a new type of metal? ”
"Yes, we have lead-zinc ore in the Dewa mine in Sapporo, and galvanizing is a very important metal anti-oxidation processing process, and the surface of many steel parts must be galvanized."
"Your Majesty, how should it be galvanized?"
"The process is similar to that of electrolytic copper, the anode is a galvanized part, and the cathode is a zinc plate, but the galvanizing solution is different, I don't know if it will work with sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid or nitric acid, I don't know this anymore, this needs you to experiment."
"Oh! I know what to do. ”
In this way, as soon as the development of the hydrogenerator solves a problem, a new problem appears, but these new problems are directly pointed out by Yang Wenli, which avoids the trouble of stopping and transforming after the fact.
However, Yang Wenli casually ordered to go down, and did not personally participate in the research, which also produced an unexpected consequence.
About a month later, Wang Rucheng came to Yang Wenli with two samples in his hand.
"Your Majesty, we listened to your guidance and tried to galvanize the metal parts, but we found two galvanized materials, one is particularly bright and the other is bright silver, I don't know which is the real galvanized, please Your Majesty."
Yang Wenli took the two samples and looked at them as clear as a mirror, and he replied to Wang Rucheng with a smile: "The less bright one is the real galvanizing, which is a necessary anti-oxidation process for large-scale industrialization, and you can do it in such a short period of time, it is not easy, and your credit is great."
So be it! Because of the importance of this craft, you cannot fail to fail to reward your merits, and a few of your assistants who participated in the research will be removed from slavery status from now on and officially become honorable scientific researchers.
In the future, if there is any research and development of new technologies and new processes, you can enjoy the huge profits brought by these advanced technologies, which is intellectual property rights, and I will ask the parliament to negotiate with you on the proportion of intellectual property rights in the net profits of commodities, and set it as law, so that the efforts of scientific researchers can be rewarded handsomely. ”
After saying this, Yang Wenli raised another sample in his hand and said with a smile: "And this sample is not simple, this is called chrome plating, which is a more advanced anti-oxidation and beautification process, and its chrome-plated products are very valuable, only as an anti-oxidation and beautification process for high-end tableware and swords and other precious items, which has high economic value."
These two processes, you still need to study in depth, to plating more stable, heat and acid and alkali erosion, especially galvanizing, not acid and alkali resistance, nor heat resistance, you also have to find a way to solve these problems.
Of course, these scientific research tasks are not so urgent, and they cannot be solved overnight, so take your time! ”
"Your Majesty, what kind of process is used for NdFeB permanent magnets?"
"As far as chrome plating, NdFeB permanent magnets are very precious things, and chromium metal is very heat-resistant, and it complements each other when installed in the generator.
In addition, our own equipment and accessories, we do not need to consider too many economic benefits, the only thing we have to consider is the service life, can be maintenance-free for a long time, etc. ”
"Whoa! I know. ”
Although the development of hydrogenerators is not simple, through the efforts of scientific researchers, various problems have been overcome one by one.
In addition, I have to say that Yang Wenli was opened, taking the turbine blades of the hydro turbine as an example, China could not process a qualified turbine blade in the eighties and nineties, so that China's submarine propeller was ridiculed by foreign countries as a source of deep-sea noise.
Turbine blades are typical irregular shapes, whether they are directly cut or die-cast, they need to be processed by precision five-axis linkage machine tools, which China did not have at that time, of course, it is not good, and the processed propellers are not so good.
But Yang Wenli has a strong spiritual support, he can find extremely subtle flaws, if through the actual test, the mold he made can not even be made with the best modern machine tools.
Therefore, for Yang Wenli, the only problem with hydrogenerators is that there is no difficulty in materials, processes and technologies.
Let's put it this way! After Yang Wenli personally designed, tested and molded, the hydro generator made by Yang Wenli was compared with the best modern hydro generator in terms of power generation efficiency, service life, and maintenance-free.
And the fifty slave soldiers under him, because they have followed him to do scientific research for a long time, and have also practiced meditation, their mental power is much stronger than ordinary people, if according to the standard of eighth-level workers in later generations, then they are all ninth-level workers, and they will exceed the level of eighth-level workers.
This is the confidence that he dares to engage in basic science and technology, he has abundant capital, and any problem is often easy to grasp in his hands.
By the middle of August, through the efforts of Yang Wenli and all the scientific researchers, they finally made the world's most advanced three-phase permanent magnet hydro turbine alternator.
After calculation, the volume of this generator is very huge, just a generator to supply the country's electricity is more than enough, of course, the industrial zone and the development zone will use a lot of electrical equipment and machinery in the future, scientific research personnel have left a lot of space, even most of the electricity space.
