Of course, Peng Qinfang knew about the "three-year plan", and Lao Peng also raised his hands in favor of the part about focusing on the use of gas as fuel.

The travelers in the Special Economic Zone can now enjoy the convenience of running water, and if they are connected to the gas again, then the shower brought by the gas water heater will not be too far away, which is really a thing to look forward to for the travelers who are used to showering almost every day in the future.

At the end of the 18th century, the British began to use coal to prepare gas, the initial gas was collected in the coke oven, used as fuel to burn with a very sensible feeling, for which the British Empire gave it a very sensible name - "tap fire", the fly in the ointment is that the taste is a little worse, it smells a little stinky, the reason is nothing more than that there is no reliable way to purify the gas. However, this purification problem is not a big deal for the traverser, just because the smell is mainly due to hydrogen sulfide, and in terms of environmental protection in later generations, sulfur removal is the basic skill.

Because of this, Lao Peng does not find it difficult to produce gas.

Lao Peng thought of other questions.

"Maote, alcohol is a liquid, gas is a gas, I remember that later generations of taxis to be converted to liquefied gas, right! Now, the alcohol-burning ball type internal combustion engine is successful, but I wonder if it is difficult to change it to gas? ”

Mao Geng patted Lao Peng on the shoulder and said:

"Let's go over there and you'll see."

Coming to a room in the corner, Mao Geng's two disciples were fiddling with a device on the tool table.

The device was not very large, it was a small thing, it was fixed on the workbench, one disciple was shaking the handle, and the other disciple was fumbling around, and Lao Peng didn't understand what they were doing for a while.

After a while, the disciple who shook the handle unscrewed the nut head on a certain copper pipe, only to hear a "bang" sound, and saw that the mouth of the pipe sneered outward, causing a piercing whistle, Lao Peng seemed to have guessed something, and was about to make a sound, Mao Geng smiled:

"Look, look at this compressor."

It turned out to be a compressor, Lao Peng's eyes lit up, and he praised:

"I think it's okay, the jet posture just now, the pressure will not be small."

After observing for a while, Lao Peng basically understood that this thing was actually similar to a short pump. It's just that the up and down reciprocating movement of the pump is not driven by the hand pressing the foot, but by a crank connecting rod mechanism, with such a crank connecting rod piston mechanism, it is very light, and the rotary motion is converted into reciprocating motion. To put it bluntly, it is still a reciprocating pumping process, except for the cylinder piston, which is nothing more than the addition of a one-way valve for inlet air and a one-way valve for outlet, and that's it. In principle, it is not much different from a bellows.

Lao Peng thought at that time that with such a crank connecting rod mechanism, he could easily change the manual gas into mechanical gas. From this point of view, the crank linkage mechanism is simply an upgraded artifact of this era, this is not! Right in front of it, it magically upgraded a pump into a compressor.

The cylinder of this compressor is made of brass, which looks exquisite, presumably for the sake of sealing.

Lao Peng can guess that these two disciples of Mao Geng should be testing whether there is air leakage or not. See, the leak is still a bit tricky.

For a while, Lao Peng was a little fascinated, until Mao Geng greeted him and left, and Lao Peng was still a little reluctant.

After getting into the carriage, Lao Peng said:

"Okay! Even the compressor has come out, it's not simple! ”

"This is for the gas motor to inject a compressed gas mixture, this two-stroke motor must be pressurized to inject fuel, and the alcohol-burning ball motor uses a piston alcohol pump. Hehe, I have prepared two sets of plans for gas burning, the plunger pump can be used better, but the liquid is incompressible, the plunger pump is no problem to spray alcohol, and it can be choked when used in gas compression injection. That's why I built this small compressor to compress and inject gas. It's a pity that there is no way to make it fully enclosed, and air leakage is inevitable, so you can only control the leakage a little. ”

Alcohol injection is directly copied from the plunger fuel injection pump of the diesel engine of later generations, that is, the reciprocating piston pump of cam spring control, after knowing the principle, it is not much difficult to copy.

But gas is a gas, unlike incompressible liquids, if you have to use a piston pump, the volume must be large enough, so Mao Geng remembered to use a piston compressor.

For this piston compressor, Mao Geng has some regrets, can not be like the refrigerator compressor of later generations, the motor, crankshaft connecting rod mechanism and cylinder and other ancient brains with a fully sealed iron shell, the refrigerator compressor This fully enclosed design advantages are obvious, even if the piston leaks, it can not run freon. In this time and space, the conditions are still very limited, and if it cannot be fully sealed, let the gas leak a little. It is said that in the winter of the later generations, it is not that I have not smelled the taste of carbon monoxide, and it is not that there is nothing to do!

Mao Geng was very unhappy with the air leak, but Lao Peng felt that the effect was already very good. Lao Peng was curious:

"There is no oak, what kind of seal is there?" Lao Peng was almost about to say the word "rubber", but there was a coachman driving the carriage in front of him, and Lao Peng finally reacted quickly, so he swallowed the word "rubber".

"Felt! The effect can only be said to be improvised. "In fact, felt will also be used in hydraulic pressure in later generations, of course, in any case, felt and other seals still can't catch up with rubber seals.

Lao Peng admired Mao Geng's spirit of excellence very much, and said sincerely:

"Yes, yes, I appreciate Maote's rigorous style. There's no need to be greedy, take your time, and lay the foundation as firmly as possible. ”

Speaking of greed and speed, Mao Geng thought of Zhao Yuchun, and then thought of Zhu Xilai.

Back in Mao Geng's office, as soon as he entered the door, Lao Qiu, who had been sticking to his duty post, asked:

"Look at the ball burner! Did you go to see Zhu Xi's side? ”

Mao Geng thought, what do you really want to do, this time back, it will be on Zhu Xi's head.

Lao Peng was still thinking about the ball burner and compressor just now, and exclaimed:

"The ball burner is good, it's good! Maote's doing, it's all very good! ”

Lao Peng then realized something and asked in surprise

"Lao Qiu, Zhu Xi's side, has he come up with a black technology that is more eye-catching than the ball burning machine?"

Lao Qiu was accustomed to Lao Peng's slow half-beat rhythm, and an expression appeared on his face, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and said:

"Old Peng, Zhu Xi's side, he's working hard at this moment! Let me tell you, Mr. Zhu Xi is focusing on now, one is an ironclad chariot, the other is a charcoal gas stove, and both hands are very hard! I can tell you responsibly that the prototype of Zhu Xi's version of the first-generation ironclad chariot has already come out, and of course, Maute and I, including most of the traversers, don't think that thing can be called an ironclad chariot. Only Zhao Yuchun, the two goods, dared to fool Zhu Xi, claiming that it was an ironclad chariot. Hehe! Imagine that Mr. Zhu Xi drove his old iron car out to show off, how nonsensical it was! ”

"I'm curious about what kind of car it is."

"Anyway, what you'll see, this car is a thing led by Zhao Yuchun, steam-powered, burning gas, crawler, covered with iron sheets, well, if you have to say it's an ironclad car, it's not that it can't be touched at all. It's just that after you read it, you will definitely feel ridiculous. Anyway, after I read it, I can't help but think of the big # leap forward era of 'earth blast furnace' and 'great steel smelting'. How bold a man is, how fruitful the earth is! ”

Hearing Lao Qiu say this, Lao Peng glanced at Mao Geng and wanted to know how Mao Geng thought about this matter.

Mao Gengqiang suppressed his smile and had no choice but to say:

"It's not completely unreliable to say that it is iron armor, I think at least the bow and arrow can't help it, and the cavalry of the golden soldiers may not be able to please it. It depends on who to deal with, and it is difficult for the Japanese to call the bean chariot not the word 'tank', but it is more than enough to deal with the party army of the Republic of China. Zhu Xi was so eager to launch the ironclad chariot, it is estimated that he wanted the emperor to arrange the Northern Expedition as much as possible. If you understand it this way, you won't be disgusted with Zhu Xi's eagerness! ”

Lao Peng had never seen the Zhu version of the ironclad chariot, so he had to make up for it in his brain. Habitually, Lao Peng remembered what kind of charcoal gas stove thing, and wondered in his heart, the best choice for large-scale production of gas should of course be to use coal for production, and I believe that no one with a normal brain will use charcoal to prepare gas.

"That charcoal gas or something, what's going on? Is Zhu Xi mistaken! ”

This time, it was Mao Geng who replied:

"Make no mistake! Lao Peng, in the 21st century, North Korea is short of oil, and charcoal cars are still running on the road, which are actually cars equipped with charcoal gas stoves. It is said that the most powerful charcoal gas stove in later generations weighs less than 100 catties, and after filling 200 catties of charcoal at a time, it can be opened for 100 **10 kilometers, and it can reach more than 40 kilometers. At the time of the Anti-Japanese War, China was blocked, and gasoline could not be supplied at all. It is said that the charcoal gas stove developed by China was the most technologically advanced in the world at that time, and there was no one, and the Ming Niu seemed to be called Tang Tangzhong.

"It's Tang Zhongming." Lao Qiu remembers and understands.

"Yes, that's him, using charcoal as raw material should be considering that charcoal does not contain sulfur, and does not need a complex filtration and sulfur removal device, this charcoal gas stove is not large in size, installed in a car, produced and used, and does not need a gas canister, it is really amazing, and it is not acceptable. Someone has calculated that a pound of charcoal can make a car travel a kilometer, which is much cheaper than using gasoline. We don't have gasoline available at all, so we have to take the route of the Republic of China and make great efforts to develop charcoal gas stoves. Gu Yongqiang was in charge of this matter, but Zhu Xi heard that this furnace was so important, so he kept an eye on it very closely, and sometimes did it himself. It's really admirable for the old gentleman to be like this! ”

"So, what's going on with the charcoal gas stove?" Lao Peng almost immediately hoped to see the legendary miraculous charcoal gas stove.

"It can be used if it is improvised, but the production of gas is still not so ideal, and we still have to explore it." Mao Geng felt that it was quite difficult to catch up with the bull Tang Zhongming.

Lao Peng's heart was agitated at this time, and he dared to go to Lin'an, and there was a bunch of black technology here, Lao Peng secretly decided that this time he must not go to Lin'an to do any Raushzi public relations, let's do a little technical work to help the social exhibition!
