Chapter 677: Generator
The steam locomotive scurried through the green fields, and Newton carefully observed the changes in time and distance.
He didn't dare to look back at her cousin, but he was also a little happy in his heart, and he was glad that he was kissed by his cousin.
Newton's cousin saw that his cousin was really serious about calculating, so he didn't want to bother, and finally was invited by Princess Mary to accompany Princess Mary to see the scenery outside the window.
In the other carriage, Boyle was so fascinated by an article in an unknown academic journal in the Ming Dynasty called "The Phenomenon of Sulfur and Rubber Coheating" that he forgot to enjoy the scenery of the Yangtze River.
Hook has been thinking about what the consequences would be if the steam locomotive collided with another one, and whether the law of collision would be satisfied.
When the steam locomotive arrived at the outskirts of Beijing, Newton and others changed the carriage and Jinyiwei was responsible for bringing it into the capital.
Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen received Princess Mary and her Newton people in the Qianqing Palace in the name of receiving Princess Mary.
Zhu Youzhen is most interested in Newton, for a Western woman like Princess Mary, he doesn't have much expectations, after all, it is just the same physiological structure, at most the skin color is different.
Zhu Youzhen is the first time to see a Western fan from England, and he has an instinctive vigilance against this country, after all, in his memory, he shot the first shot of the modern powers.
"Which of you can speak Chinese?"
Zhu Youzhen asked first, now what he cares about most is the promotion of Chinese in the world, which is also the most important reference criterion for him to identify second- and third-class citizens, if these people in front of him don't even know Chinese, he is not much interested in talking to them anymore.
Newton and Boyle stood up: "Newton (Boyle) has seen His Majesty the Ming Emperor!" ”
"You're Newton? When did you learn Chinese? Zhu Youzhen didn't expect that Newton had learned Chinese, so he couldn't help laughing, pointed to the two Western women in the veil, and asked:
"Who is your lover?"
Newton was a little dumbfounded, and couldn't help but freeze in place, not knowing how to answer for a while.
His cousin, on the other hand, was staring at Newton with both eyes.
"Why don't you answer?" asked Zhu Youzhen solemnly.
"Your Majesty, I don't know who my lover is, the question you asked,
"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I don't know who my lover is, the question you asked, Newton didn't know how to answer."
Newton suddenly replied.
Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but smile dumbly: "Didn't you say that Newton was very smart, but I can't seem to see it today, so let Newton go and be an assistant to Xu Yin in the Beijing Normal University Hall, since he has no lover, let his cousin take care of his diet and daily life." ”
"Boyle, you go to Fang Yizhi of the Daming Industrial School to be a chemical assistant!"
"Hu Ke, then sent to participate in the development of the steam ironclad battleship."
Emperor Chongzhen Zhu pointed to Princess Mary after making arrangements: "Take her to see the queen, and let her come to the Qianqing Palace tonight."
In the evening, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu returned to the Qianqing Palace from the Generalissimo Palace, and he really began to get close to the British royal princess Mary.
Zhu Youzhen lifted her veil, and saw a fair duck egg face under the golden curls, a pair of royal blue eyes with slightly drooping eyelashes, and an onion-like hand between the legs that were close together, holding the bracelet.
Zhu Youzhen took her hand and slowly leaned over.
Nothing was said all night.
Princess Mary clumsily catered to the attack of the Ming Emperor, and withstood Zhu Youzhen's ferocious piercing with her slender and soft body.
Wait until the next day when it is already dawn.
The brocade couch left red spots like plum blossoms, and the princess of England became the woman of the Ming Emperor Zhu Youzhen, and even though she was named Changzai.
Newton began to enjoy life in Daming, because here he could not only continue to study mathematics and physics, which he loved, but also spend time with his cousin.
But Newton never seemed to have learned how to build a relationship with girls.
Although he lived and ate with his cousin, he never chose to propose to his cousin.
However, Newton had already established a good relationship with Xu Yin.
He even successfully helped Xu Yin to explain the principle of electromagnetic induction in more detail, and evolved a number of formulas rooted in the laws of electromagnetic induction.
Xu Yin used his existing mechanical knowledge to create a sketch of a dynamo, while Newton helped him successfully build a mathematical model of a thermal generator.
As a result, the time required for Xu Yin to complete the drawings of the thermal generator was shortened a lot.
Newton became fascinated by electrification after learning about the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction and the technology of using chemical reactions to make batteries.
In the summer of Chongzhen's forty-fifth year, Xu Yin's team built the first DC generator.
Naturally, Newton was involved.
The first DC generator was first used in the lighting application of electric lights, and the Ministry of Industry of Daming helped the Manufacturing Bureau to build the first thermal power plant in Daming.
The first thermal power plant only used ten generators to form a generator set, and first used the number of squares at the right gate of Chang'an as a test area to construct a household electricity circuit diagram.
Soon, at the end of the year, basically every household in the area around the right gate of Chang'an was electrified, but the electricity was not strong, and the light was still worse than the mercury lamp of later generations, but it was much stronger than the candle.
Although, from time to time, power outages and even leakage electric shock accidents often occur due to circuit failures.
However, with the improvement of technology, by the autumn of the 46th year of Chongzhen, the area around the right gate of Chang'an had begun to fully realize the popularization of safe electric lights, and low-cost electricity was provided by the engine.
The people of the Ming Dynasty were already very shocked by the appearance of electric lights at first, but they did not expect that they could be able to install electric lights in every house, and even realize the demand for long-term lighting.
The Ministry of Industry of the Cabinet of Ministers began to approve the creation of several batches of thermal power plants, adding a number of generating units.
As a result, the entire capital of Daming has achieved the goal of electrification, but the environmental impact is also becoming more and more serious, the city's air quality has begun to decline, in addition to this, the demand for coal is also increasing sharply.
But fortunately, the people of Daming don't care about the environmental experience, only the industrial experience, so they don't care.
And there is no need to worry about coal, now Daming has a vast territory, and railway transportation is becoming more and more developed, which is fully enough to meet the domestic demand for coal.
Xu Yin's team is still working on the improvement of the generator, not only trying to make the alternator, but also trying to make the hydroelectric generator, so as to use the hydromechanical energy to achieve the accumulation of electrical energy.
But the construction of hydroelectric power sets was more difficult, and Xu Yin and his team members such as Newton had to continue to devote themselves to research.
Although electrification is at the forefront of Daming's current development of science and technology, it is still the manufacture of locomotives that really occupies the mainstream of research.
With the invention and manufacture of steam locomotives, Fang Yizhi's team has been thinking about developing a steam locomotive that can replace horses and facilitate travel with people.
