Chapter 265 Construction of power plants
The field of electric power is a system engineering, there is never only one power plant, although the power plant is important, more important is transmission and power supply, if there is no perfect system to solve the overall problem, electricity will always be just a kind of energy, just like the coal in the past, can not be applied.
From ancient times, even before there were records of civilization, there were records of the use of coal, and the same is true for oil, electricity, which is sent out by various methods, but there is also electricity in nature, and when lightning is generated, the electrical energy far exceeds that of today's large nuclear power plants, and once a thunderbolt appears, the amount of electrical energy possessed is simply astronomical.
Unlike coal and oil, there are many restrictions on the use of electricity, at least in nature, it is difficult to use until the next generation, because the total amount of energy and the level of energy are too large.
Coal only meets the steam engine, will get a huge application, oil is also cracked into a variety of different refined oil, and then combined with the internal combustion engine, to become the key to energy, electricity, the same, he is with new energy, new materials, all kinds of electrical appliances and motors combined, especially the motor, a certain range of dù, the motor throughout the second industrial **, and even the development history of energy, a certain range dù, can be called the development history of the motor.
As the second industrial rise of the power, the United States and Germany, the development of electric power has reached a considerable level, most of them have been developed in the last 30 years, Germany is a little better, the equipment is updated faster, 20 years ago, the equipment has been updated, among the second-hand equipment imported from Germany, there are some motors, and even the kind 20 years ago, which is considered to solve the problem of having and not, among the goods obtained from the United States, there are also some small motors, Large generators and electric motor units, in this era, can definitely be called high-tech, will not and will not be lightly circulated, even if there is no money, it is impossible, fortunately, these can become the object of initial research.
If you change before, these have to be studied by Yang Yuanzhao personally, the motor and the engine, these are completely two different fields, even in this era, the motor is relatively foundation and simple, a layman, if you want to make a breakthrough in this field, it is not as simple as the previous engine, if it is short, it will take a few months, if it is more, maybe there will be no results in a few years.
Coming to this time and space, the biggest feeling is that the right thing is handed over to the right person to do, at present, the greatest contribution to the entire power field, is still Truss, a genius scientist, alternating current, is the direction of his research, after creating zào out of alternating current, has always been considering the popularization of alternating current, and the motor is also one of the directions.
Previously, Truss's funds were limited, so she had to go in other directions and accumulate funds from other ways. Now, with Yang Yuanzhao's unreserved support, more than $150,000 a month in research funds, a variety of qualified and functional alloys, and most importantly, a large number of physical objects.
Yang Yuanzhao from later generations, brought a part of the switch and control device, automatic gate knife, although it is only a civilian equipment in later generations, a certain range of dù above, but higher than this era, the all-in-one machine can solve the problem of materials, the real thing can solve the problem of comparison, all of a sudden, let the last kilometer of the solution, complete more than half, as for large-scale equipment, from supercharged substation, to decompression substation, Truss in the past few decades, has also had similar thinking, can not reach the future generation of 110 thousand volt Cheng dù, However, it can also be pressurized to 5000 volts, or even tens of thousands of degrees, so that the voltage and consumption are still amazing, but there is already the possibility of long-distance transmission and practical use.
All of a sudden, including the power plant, as well as the follow-up various factories, more than 30 factories were rolled out, and the one-time investment amount exceeded 8 million US dollars, which caused a series of sensations in the circle of the reclamation company, and several major shareholders, including Hou Jinsheng, would come to inquire.
In the field of basic energy, especially for the power that plays a very key role in the future, Yang Yuanzhao does not intend to let others control it, besides, a certain amount of time, electricity is a process of cultivating the market, in this process, Yang Yuanzhao will not choose the high price of windfall profits, to recover the cost, just choose the way of low-price promotion, large-scale group power generation, even if it is invested in environmental protection, will not generate much cost, besides, the use of coal to generate alternating current, is relatively economical, Especially in the northwest, this place near Shanxi, and even around itself there are large coal mines, coal has a certain amount of dù above, only the cost of excavation, and not the cost of resources, except for salt, iron, gold and silver, feudal society, almost no value resources, in the late Qing Dynasty, even salt and iron were released.
Some are similar to the large-scale power plants of later generations, themselves, general power plants, will not make such a high, similar to the reactor-like thing, what gas, directly emitted in the air is good, this wind and dust reduction material, base filter, and thermal separation and other by-products, the investment of each power plant is relatively huge, among them, the cement plant for the support of materials, plays a vital role, high grade, or special use of special cement with the power plant, as well as thermal emission pipelines, Plumbing, and so on, are all fresh and unique designs that are embodied in the power plant.
Qian Hu of the construction company, the most elite force, responsible for the construction of the power plant, compared to other factories, this is definitely a fine work, but also a technical work, any cement board, or the difference of the dust cover, will make the overall effect a lot lower, not a few of the above jù, is Truss calculated, more Truss gives the formula, the use of computers, these things are calculated.
Yang Yuanzhao is not a rigid person, in fact, before, the computer has been gradually applied to Baotou, but now his strength is weaker, such anti-sky technology, it is unlikely to be used directly for the time being, and it is okay to use it secretly.
Truss is a smart person, but his intelligence is different from other people, his intelligence is only limited to research and scientific research, it can be said that many of his whimsical ideas, even in the 21st century, have not been lifted by Uncle Sam, and completely treat his creativity as alien technology.
But he is in the world, to be exact, in terms of personnel, but he knows very little, just obsessed with his own world, which is also a key for him to fight Edison, Edison is an inventor, it is true that what was invented by him is not less, more is the invention of Edison's company, relative to the invention, his greater expertise, in fact, is in business operations, from an ordinary scientist, to a generation of tycoons Cheng dù, and even the foundation of modern movies has something to do with him, from this point of view, Edison could throw off Truss a few streets.
It is precisely because of this that Yang Yuanzhao dared to take out some things that surpassed this era and showed them to Truss, on the one hand, hoping that these things could inspire Truss and allow him to make more inventions based on these things, and on the other hand, it was also to save his time.
Baotou time is limited, Truss's time is also limited, although he still has a few decades to live, and even heard that many inventions in the second half of his life are quite whimsical, but what Yang Yuanzhao needs is not weird inventions, like the tower on Long Island, inexplicable, uncontrollable, and something with a certain science fiction color, but something that is real, and has a huge improvement on a country's national strength and all aspects.
The power plant is carried out almost at the same time, and the generator with an installed capacity of 3,000 is the size of a big house, even if the chimney like a reactor above is added, the amount of work is not high, at most it is the construction volume of several three-story small buildings, because these things are relatively unified, so Qian Hu built a prefabricated cement parts factory under Yang Yuanzhao's construction, and under the efforts of a large number of skilled workers, a large number of prefabricated cement parts were made out in 20 daysPerhaps a team can only build a house, but for prefabricated cement parts, all can be hardened successfully, and when the time comes, the construction personnel only need to install it in accordance with the established way.
In this way, a lot of time has been saved, and 50 power plants are expected to be completed in 3-4 months, which is definitely the first in the world.
The power network, of course, will not only be the power plant, Qian Hu's focus is not here, not far from the pressurized transmission station, and far away in the Baotou low-voltage substation, responsible for reducing the voltage of more than 5,000 volts to 375 volts of industrial voltage and 220 volts of civil electricity.
No way, originally, Yang Yuanzhao did not plan to use 220 volts as the standard, compared to ordinary people, this voltage is somewhat dangerous, and there will be a certain electrocution incident, but in order to avoid greater passivity, he still chose this, because he has all the household appliances on hand, as well as computers and the like, and the things related to electricity brought by later generations are all 220 volts.
In the future, with the help of an all-in-one machine, he will copy these things, a certain amount of time, before the production of these things is completed, to meet the consumption needs of the citizens, and when the time comes, it will be changed to 110 volts, which is too troublesome, even if there are experts like Truss, it can exceed this era for more than 100 years, most of them are chip-controlled appliances, in case Truss can't reduce the voltage, it will all be scrapped.
Useless work will not be done, besides, the future generations have successfully used 220 volts for so many years, as long as the safety of electricity is strengthened, with better switches and sockets, so that the electric tiger can not run out, it will solve this problem from one side. R1152
