Chapter 309 Million Ton Steel Mill

Leaving an excited Zhan Tianyou, he didn't salute much, but there were a few gadgets, the railway engineer saw the rail, on a certain chengdù, just like a knight saw a horse, a soldier saw a gun, it was an indescribable temptation, especially for Zhan Tianyou, he had seen the heavy rail before, but he had never used it, and now, he finally had the opportunity to put the heavy rail into practice......

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhan Tianyou inspected each part of the rail in detail, not only checked this small endpoint, but also checked other rails to ensure that each one was completely free of problems, this heavy rail, even better than the one he had studied, the performance indicators of the heavy rail in the United States in all aspects are stronger, once the railway he built is used, in terms of opening speed and annual throughput capacity, it must be satisfactory, after getting this result, this is with satisfaction, into a deep sleep, I really had a good dream at night.

Early the next morning, Yang Yuanzhao came over early to invite Zhan Tianyou, for this rare, for Baotou, and even the entire development of China, is extremely important experts, Yang Yuanzhao is not afraid to slack off at all, from a certain Cheng dù above, a Zhan Tianyou, almost related to the future of Baotou, the overall development of the railway.

From Baotou to Baiyun Obo, the distance of one or two hundred kilometers is not a relatively long distance for Baotou, which has built a highway, especially for Baotou, which already has a high-speed carriage. However, this time, Yang Yuanzhao took Zhan Tianyou to Baiyun Obo not in a carriage, but in a car.

China already has simple cars, but most of them are distributed in some of the more developed and open cities of Shanghai and Beijing, and Yang Yuanzhao almost scoffs at these cars. It's also called a car, and as an engineer specializing in engines, for automobiles, it's simply very familiar before. I don't think it's necessary, but the more and more heavy work, and the empty highways, although the number of highways opened to traffic and the tonnage throughput are enough to be satisfied, but the horse-drawn carriage is still inferior to the car. This is true even with heavy pull-backs imported from the UK.

Now there is no foundation for heavy industry in Baotou as a whole, but with the strong power of the BMW 999 engine, he still reluctantly copied a medium-sized bus similar to the later Iveco, which is very small. Because it is almost synthesized by hand and an all-in-one machine, it is made out of zuò, just like the previous tractor, all relying on Yang Yuanzhao. In the end, only 3 such buses were made, and only 24 buses were used, using a 193-horsepower BMW 999 engine, with the help of powerful power and transmission designed by Yang Yuanzhao. You can easily run a speed of 70 kilometers or more on a flat road.

It's just this speed. Baotou can drive this Iveco to challenge the World Racing Competition, after the appearance of this bus, the extremely high speed, coupled with a comfortable environment, is almost for the Baotou Chamber of Commerce some high-level use. Close to 70 km/h, on the highway. From Baotou to Taiyuan, it is only 10 hours. It departs almost in the morning and arrives in the evening, with great comfort, no rhythmic bumps like a horse-drawn carriage and, most importantly, a lot of space above.

However, Yang Yuanzhao is a cautious person, such a thing beyond this time and space, absolutely not leaked out, 3 cars, basically under the control of the Baoken company, even if the shareholders below need this car to go to Taiyuan or Zhangjiakou, you can take this car, but, go on the same day, you must come back on the same day, it is impossible to stay in a city other than Baotou, so it is a lot more rigid, but also a lot of machinery, but it is better than safety, even if it is the top management of various enterprises in Baotou, Few people know about this car, let alone outside, no one knows that the world's fastest car has been occupied by Baotou.

Zhan Tianyou was originally interested, but sitting on the car, but a little cramped, to be honest, the car is not a strange thing for him, but the car in Baotou, indeed, as an engineering engineer, mechanical things, also understand, a car with such a speed, in this world represents this, the reason why the train is developed, is because the train has high horsepower, fast speed, large transportation power, the combination of the train and the railway, in a considerable distance, It is greater than the development of automobiles, and the transportation around the world is often for railways.

Comparatively speaking, the investment in the car is small, only a road, or even a direct purchase of a car can be, but the huge investment in the train, only the power of the country or large groups, can promote their development, compared to the car, more flexible and changeable, in the short distance, or relatively little things, the car owner has an unparalleled advantage.

Now, when this high-speed passenger car appears, another advantage of the train seems to be being broken, the fastest railway in the world has exceeded 80 kilometers, but the speed of this car is not slow, the previous high-speed carriage with heavy horses is enough to surprise Zhan Tianyou, but the so-called car in front of him, looking at the wide body and seats, can accommodate dozens of people The car also runs so fast.

Yang Yuanzhao didn't know what Zhan Tianyou was trying to write, if he knew Zhan Tianyou's thoughts at this time, he would definitely be very emotional, certain Cheng dù above, Zhan Tianyou's ideas are extremely forward-looking, as a person in the 20th century, he actually saw the situation in the 21st century, which is the direction of future development, in this case, it shows his vision and strength.

The speed of about 70 kilometers per hour, under the driving of the fast car, soon reached the destination, more than an hour later, the surrounding scenery, from the unchanged grassland, began to change, before approaching Baiyun Obo, he saw hundreds of huge chimneys, the power of industry, in the beginning, always formed under the impetus of the steel plant, and the huge chimney, is the biggest feature of the steel plant.

"One, two, three, four, five!" Yang Yuanzhao can clearly hear, Zhan Tianyou's counting voice, he should not be able to count, compared to the higher technical level of the blast furnace, only responsible for the exhaust gas of the chimney is easier to build, the first phase of the project, the design, is to build 16 steel blast furnaces, plus 16 ironworks, a total of 32 chimneys are needed, some of the blast furnaces have more than one chimney, and even some special processing workshops will have, the entire industrial area, the total number of chimneys, reached 89, and there are still 11 to reach a hundred.

Ordinary things, a hundred is very good to count, one by one, but the chimneys, especially the chimneys distributed in a huge factory area, are not so easy to count, sure enough, it is less than half, Zhan Tianyou counted wrongly, when all the counts, almost 180, he himself knows, it is impossible to count again, several times in a row, even the car gradually approached Baiyun Obo, less than 5 kilometers away from Baiyun Obo, did not count, in the end, Zhan Tianyou finally gave up, Instead, he came to ask Yang Yuanzhao how many chimneys there were.

"89 seats, Yang Yuanzhao said calmly!"

"What, 89!" Zhan Tianyou, who had always been unfazed, finally showed a stunned expression, 89 chimneys, even if the blast furnace only accounted for a fraction of them, the output of the entire steelmaking plant was extremely amazing.

"Mr. Yang, I haven't asked you all the time, I don't know what technology is used in the steelmaking plant, and how many tons of steelmaking furnace is used!" Zhan Tianyou finally couldn't help but ask.

"A 150-ton steelmaking furnace!"

"What, 150 tons?" Zhan Tianyou was stunned, he didn't know much about steel, but he knew a little, and he also knew that Hanyang Iron Works' steelmaking furnace was only about 15 tons, so it could not produce at full capacity, with the chimney in front of him, even if it was only 10th of a steelmaking blast furnace, 9 150 tons, and the output of more than 3,000 tons a day, this doesn't mean that a million-ton steelmaking plant has risen here.

The steel-making plant, and it is a super-large-scale steel-making plant, even if it is extrapolated from the current blast furnace, this steel-making plant, which can be accommodated, is enough to reach the million-ton level, when did such a behemoth appear, an amazing behemoth, in China's mansion, in China's barren land, what is going on?

"Mr. Zhan, I have seen our heavy industry, in fact, among the 89 chimneys, only 12 are currently in production, they are 5 large open-hearth furnaces of 150 tons, using the method of oxygen infusion, the time of each furnace of molten steel, from the original more than 7 hours, reduced to less than 2 hours, of course, at present, we can not operate at full capacity, an average of 5 furnaces of steel can be produced every day."

Zhan Tianyou breathed a sigh of relief, but then, Yang Yuanzhao gave the number jù, which surprised him, what, 5 furnaces a day, which means this, 750 tons of steel a day, five is more than 3750 tons, which is equal to this steel mill, every year, can almost produce one million tons, which is about the same as the total number he expected before, but this is still not fully put into production, 12 chimneys, occupying all the chimneys, a little more than one-eighth of them, that is, if they are fully put into production, What is the concept of this steelmaking plant, 8 million tons.

Million tons, for the barren and backward China is such an astonishing number, you know, now the whole world, steel production of more than one million tons of countries, will not exceed 10 countries, all of them are the world's top powers, Zhang Zhidong, how majestic, invested a huge amount of money, in the end Hanyang Iron Works is ridiculous 80,000 tons of iron and 40,000 tons of steel, even the quality of steel, is not how qualified, this is not the slightest help to China, but now this, It looks inconspicuous, no publicity, no gorgeous, but a real large-scale steelmaking plant, no wonder he said before that there is no upper limit to the acquisition of rails, how much, how much.
