442.Chapter 442
Tang Ning found that the three-dimensional mesh structure is dozens of times more efficient, which can not only build bridges, ships, and flood control ground, but also can be used to build an air traffic network. The cost of using it to build an elevated highway is so cost-effective that the narrow maglev pipeline of Wind Bird Logistics can be upgraded to a diameter of 1. 2 meters of cylinder.
The cylinder itself is also irregularly reticulated, like a twisted ellipse, but the material is only one-fifth of the original traditional steel structure. In order to protect against rain and wind, the top two-thirds of the mesh holes of the cylinder are inlaid with transparent glass, because of the strange twisted shape, which makes the installation of the glass very complicated, however, for the quirky aesthetic needs of Boss Tang, it is designed this way.
This transparent glass itself is actually a solar panel, because it only absorbs ultraviolet and infrared rays, so visible light can pass through, in order to allow the maglev tube to pass to passengers, this is the first time that Downing has designed a solar panel that reduces efficiency, and its light energy utilization rate is 10 percentage points lower than the ordinary 30%.
The equipment in which the passenger rides resembles a capsule, with the smallest capsule being one meter in diameter and 2 meters long. 4 meters, including the hemispherical shape of the two ends, can sit two people together, this is the most comfortable configuration. The longest capsule is 6 meters long and can seat 12 passengers in pairs at a time.
In the dead of night, when the traffic is smooth, the two-seater capsule can speed up to 600 kilometers per hour, and it only takes 10 minutes from Beijing to Tianjin. This is probably the most comfortable mode of transportation during rush hour, so it is more expensive, and the flow of people is controlled, even at the busiest time, it can reach a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, so it will take up to 20 minutes for people to work in Beijing to get to the station.
One of the things that is better about it than flying is that it is easy to use, which is similar to that of a taxi. When a nationwide network is built, travel within 2,000 kilometers will no longer have to worry about airplanes.
Generally speaking, a city's population must reach more than 500,000 to consider such an ultra-efficient means of transportation, so it is also a sign of urban development, and who knows a city's population better than Windsor? Downing had said that he could know the exact single-digit population of a city at a certain time and moment.
The three-dimensional steel mesh structure can also promote the mega of hydropower integration equipment. It turned out that the airship could only be used to pull the dew collector to 1. 5 km to collect water, now cheaper to build directly1. The 5-kilometer ultra-high steel tower directly treats the entire tower body as a water tower, and the original 50,000-liter water tower can now be made out of a 1 million liter monster-level water tower.
The water tower, which used to serve up to 250 people, is now 5,000. The amount of electricity used is also sufficient, and it is possible to integrate another resource into it - hot water. Because of the height of the tower, reflectors can be placed around the perimeter to concentrate the solar energy to heat the water tank in the tower. As a result, the three major resources of water, electricity and heat are obtained, and it has truly become a super resource center.
A super resource tower can generate a value of 1,000 euros per day and feed 30,000 people. And its construction speed is similar to the construction of the bridge, "growing" 100 meters per day, while growing while the interior configuration, 15 days to complete.
1。 At an altitude of 5 km, the free fall will take a full 17 seconds, and the high-pressure water gun will spray to 1. There is no problem at all 5 kilometers away, so if there is a fire in the "jurisdiction", it can be sprayed directly from the water tower to the disaster area, from the alarm to the "water coming", theoretically it can be completed in 17 seconds at the earliest, hehe......
It's the rhythm of the Dragon King.
Is such a tall building just for the purpose of making three links? Known as the king of money, Boss Tang is not willing to waste so much, he is close to the highest 100 meters area of the "Dragon King Hotel", for people with special habits and no fear of heights to provide accommodation services, each suite of usable area is only 6 square meters, but there are two floors, so it's okay.
Staying at the Ryuo Hotel is not for the spaciousness, but for the view, which 1. At an altitude of 5 kilometers, the limit field of view has reached 138 kilometers, and when the weather is good, you can see Tianjin with a telescope in Beijing, are you satisfied? Yes, this is a magical hotel where you can get a telescope when you stay, it's expensive, 1 euro a night, don't forget that the unemployment benefit for United Nations citizens is only 1 euro a month.
You can also see that the three-dimensional steel mesh structure is very suitable for the construction of super high-rise buildings. Tangning is ready to sell the skyscraper cheaply, and build a model building in Chongqing, using a steel mesh structure, with an unchanging resource tower in the center, around which the height of the tower is customized by the customer.
Prices start at 100 euros per 100 square meters and cost 3,000 euros for 100 square meters on 30 floors. Many builders use this as a flat rate, which shows how competitive the selling price of Windsor's skyscrapers is, because it is equivalent to waiving the land price for the other 29 floors.
After that, the cost of each additional floor should be increased by a little bit, and the maximum should not exceed 100 floors, because it was the world's tallest building built by Windsor in Hong Kong Central Tower and Beijing Bank of China Tower, which has symbolic significance.
Chongqing's model house is 30 floors high, each floor is 100 meters, known as the tower of the mountain city. Each household will receive 200 liters of water and 30 kilowatt-hours of electricity every day. That's enough for a family of one or two. It is expected that high-rise buildings will develop rapidly in the city from now on, so how to maintain them has become a problem for Downing to consider.
Ordinary Morocco buildings pumping water and high-rise buildings are a problem, which is not a problem at all for the Tang high-rise building with a resource center, but the matter of cleaning glass cannot be ignored. Hehe, this is when laser cleaning technology can come in handy again.
In order not to harm the householder when cleaning, the model building uses e-cigarette glass technology. It has a cost-effective coarse liquid crystal particle built into the interlayer of the glass, and the glass is atomized when the power is usually off, which cannot be seen through, and the laser used for cleaning can also work safely, and the owner can turn on the de-atomization power when he is at home, and the glass will be transparent instantly.
When the owner feels that the glass is dirty and calls Phoenix Housekeeping to deal with it, the service staff will use a long-arm laser cleaning machine to stick out of the window to work, while keeping the glass in a fogged state. But this is usually not necessary, and the owner can ask Phoenix to do a major cleaning of the entire building.
At this time, the company can dispatch multiple laser cleaning drones to repair the building in all directions and without dead ends, so that it is as clean as a freshly peeled boiled egg.
The view of the high-rise residential buildings like "detached houses" is really good, so the model building of the Mountain City Tower is quite distinctive, attracting many young people to stop. Why are they all young people? There are not many middle-aged and elderly people who can adapt to such high-rise buildings, and the "good feeling" of looking down from a high place is not something that everyone can enjoy.
Boss Tang is also pushing such a project, in fact, he himself doesn't like to live in high-level buildings, and he is dizzy. The whirring wind blew like this, and my intuition panicked. Such a building is suitable for young, headstrong people.
Boss Tang is also capricious, and the first time such a high-rise building has come out of the model building is actually residential, not an office building. It turns out that he has always wanted to decentralize the concept of commercial and office centers, so he does not provide convenience for high-rise office buildings, which is a strange insistence that many people do not understand.
The farther away from Windsor's tech empire, the higher the cost of living for the Allied members, such as the most obvious aviation incident, which made the Entente planes not only fly as fast as they could, but also significantly more expensive. Now the United Kingdom, the nest of Faraday Power, has a situation where energy costs are higher than those of the United Nations.
In addition to the resource tower factor, it is also related to another conceptual design of Downing. Hot water is available on the resource tower, but in winter, the hot water cools a lot when the hot water flows to a farther place, for example, it drops by 30 degrees, and the original 50 degrees becomes 20 degrees, so you can only wash your hands and dishes, and it is uncomfortable to take a bath.
You may remember the previous invention of Downing to use a low drop of water to pump water to a high place, which used the power produced by water itself, and in the same way, heat energy can also improve itself. Theoretically, the heat of 20 degrees of water can be extracted and concentrated together to heat the water, and even the 20 degrees of low hot water can be turned into minus a few degrees Celsius, and the other part of the 20 degrees of water can be heated to 50 degrees after the heat is concentrated.
The method of achieving this redistribution of thermal energy is still the use of a compressor, using a special substance with a boiling point of minus 40 degrees Celsius and a freezing point of minus 100 degrees Celsius at atmospheric pressure, which is liquid when cold but can easily evaporate into a gas and vice versa.
In practice, the evaporation limit temperature of the heat transfer material is about minus 20 degrees, so the ambient temperature of 5 degrees is also "hot" for such a low temperature, and even the temperature of snow, such as 0C, is also hot in comparison, so some heat energy can still be exchanged.
With the advent of heat-transfer substances, it is easy to flow 20 degrees of water into two waves at the end of the hot water use, one wave is hot to 50 degrees, and the other wave is cold to the same as ordinary tap water. And the whole compression process is done using the water pressure of the water flow itself, which does not consume electricity.
The use of a large heat distribution machine in a community can provide hot water for residents at a very low cost, and hot water as a heating material can be used to heat residents. Residents in the north, who used to spend a huge amount of one euro to heat their homes all winter, have now reduced the price to zero. 1 euro.
This huge benefit alone can conquer the inhabitants north of the Yangtze River, and ...... Who says winter isn't cold in the south? Therefore, it should be said that it can conquer the inhabitants north of Lingnan. The biggest disadvantage of this huge heating network is that because the cost is too low, all the carbon and coal sellers have been squeezed out of bankruptcy.
Another disadvantage is to make a big city like Beijing more crowded, because of the benefits of cheap heating, those people who are frozen to a handful of snot and tears, who don't want to have a warm winter? Siberia, Canada, and the Nordic countries all applauded, and local governments extended green olive branches to Windsor's water, electricity, and heat resource center tower.
Downing has built four major factories in Asia, Europe, North America and South America in Chengdu, St. Petersburg, Ottawa and Buenos Aires respectively, and finally all the big cities on the Yangtze River have their own fist industries. Chengdu was occupied by the Yangtze River Plan, and it can be regarded as part of the Yangtze River Plan
