Chapter 264: Water Drop No. 3

Boom.

It is used for less than a day.

The wind tunnel pipe in the ring was scattered by the grass.

The genius expert Cao Jun's method proved to be not very useful.

Of course, the main reason is that the kinetic energy of the complete body water drop crystal, which is slightly larger than a table tennis ball and weighs 15,806.4 grams, far exceeds the original assumption and exceeds the maximum bearing capacity, resulting in a complete collapse.

"I came up with a new plan to cancel even the wind tunnel equipment!"

Cao Jun took a design drawing and said: "The new plan increases the loop pipeline to eight circles, 800 kilometers long, coiled together like a snake, of which seven are filled with lake water for high-density hysteresis deceleration, and the last circle is an empty pipe, but there is no need to introduce reverse strong winds." ”

"Because the water in the seven circles of pipes below will be quickly heated to a state of steam, filling the empty pipes above, there will be a steady stream of steam to be driven to accelerate, and it will be sprayed out at high speed through small holes, bringing out both heat energy and kinetic energy."

"Just for long-term use, the thickness of the pipe wall should be increased to at least 1 meter, and there must be a large number of small holes for water seepage and heat dissipation in the middle and lower parts...... On the eighth lap, it was a little thicker again. ”

"I estimate that all the 108-ton 'Type 5 Water Drop Crystals' synthesized today are almost enough."

Cao Jun explained.

"Then my day today, doesn't it mean that I am busy in vain?"

Wei Ming spread his hands: "You have to take a lot of time to get a second pipe?" ”

"After the second set of pipelines is built, it will definitely be able to withstand the impact of the complete body of the 'Type 5 Water Drop Crystal', and there will be a steady stream of water drop crystals available in the future, and now we must make some productive investment."

"Okay, okay, it's too much trouble."

Wei Ming shook his head and had to continue to devote himself to intense work.

And so—

More than 800 kilometers of ultra-tungsten alloy pipelines took ten days.

The inner wall was coated with a layer of droplet crystal material, which took 15 days.

Wait until April 6th.

Boom Boom!

The loud bang began to sound again.

The new pipeline is really powerful, not only withstanding the impact of the complete body of the 'Type 5 Water Drop Crystal', Wei Ming increased the emission frequency to one per second, and it is also as stable as an old dog, and it resists stubbornly.

In eight hours today, 28,632 'Type 5 Drop Crystals' with a total weight of 455 tons were recovered.

I got back in just one day, and I made a lot of money.

But the Kuril Reservoir fell into bad luck.

Not to mention the evaporation of one billion tons of water, the average temperature of the lake has risen to 50 degrees Celsius, and almost all the fish in it have died.

If it weren't for the compensation, the fish farmers would have lost all their money.

Even so!

Synthesis still has to go on.

By the end of the next day, the reservoir water level had been lowered by three meters.

On the third day, the water level continued to drop, and two circles of pipes were exposed to the water, barely working normally for a day, and the experts measured and found that the water vapor ejected from the terminal vent exceeded 100 km/s, the temperature exceeded 3,000 degrees, and the color was no longer white, but a blue flame, producing a reverse thrust of more than tens of thousands of tons.

"If this water vapor energy is used to generate electricity, it will not generate less than one million megawatts, which is equivalent to the national electricity generation."

"Isn't our device similar to a rudimentary power plant?"

"It's a pity that so much energy can't be used effectively, and all of it is wasted, even if it can be used by 10% or 1%, it is a considerable number." The expert looked pity.

"The storage capacity of the Qiandao Reservoir is only 18 billion cubic meters, and more than one billion tons will evaporate in a day, or it will be evaporated in a few days! A large amount of living water must be replenished in order to continue the operation. ”

"Is it really possible to burn the lake and boil the sea, the story written in myths and legends? Is this something that can be done by a man? ”

The expert muttered to himself, a look of adoration on his face, as he witnessed the mythical scene happening before his eyes.

So under the advice of a group of experts, Wei Ming stopped work on the fourth day.

After the water level is naturally restored, and under various artificial water replenishment measures, he may be able to operate again in about a month.

It just so happens that April, May and June are the rainy season when the rainfall is more abundant, and he can come more often, perhaps the rain of nature can fill the rate at which he evaporates the lake water, so as to achieve a balance and synthesize more droplet crystals.

The only unfortunate thing is the high-quality wild fish in this reservoir, even if they take the method of drilling into the silt, this time they are lucky to escape, but next time, next time, there is still a risk of boiling into fish soup, and they will suffer devastating blows again and again, from the lake of paradise to the lake of hell.

But there is no way, although Wei Ming also feels very pity, but the needs of human beings are more important, and these innocent fish can only be sacrificed.

"Okay, let's come back later."

Wei Ming nodded, in the past three days, a total of 82,607 'Type 5 Water Drop Crystals' have been synthesized, with a total weight of 1,305 tons, which is close to the sum of the mass of the water drop crystals synthesized in the past, which is enough to be used for a period of time.

A fraction of this, 2,607, was sold to the special department for 18 million.

The reason why the price was cut by 2 million is that more than 5 billion yuan has to be used to compensate fish farmers and scenic workers near the Qiandao Reservoir, and at least tens of thousands of people's livelihoods have been affected, and it is impossible to pat their butts and leave.

And after obtaining enough droplet crystals.

Part of it meets the needs of customers.

Part of it is added to the inventory.

In addition, another 300 tons will be taken to the Black Hole Space Development Company for the manufacture of the 'Water Drop-3' spacecraft.

The specific design drawings of Shuidi No. 3 were made more than a month ago, and after continuous minor repairs, they are now more perfect.

The equipment and parts needed in it have all been processed and manufactured, and now they are only waiting for the droplet crystal material for the skeleton to be in place.

Now the materials have been brought over by Wei Ming.

And personally involved in the assembly and manufacturing.

……

A week later.

April 18th.

The factory's open-air parking area, on top of a large multi-wheeled pallet truck.

A shape is like a "gourd", small at the top and large at the bottom, flat at the bottom, can be erected, up to 15 meters in height, the upper afterburner control room is 2 meters in diameter, the bottom diameter is 9 meters, but the lower floor has a diameter of 5 meters, an area of nearly 20 square meters of living space, large enough to fit a double bed, and then put two tables and chairs, as well as a toilet and shower room - similar to the single room rent rent by the majority of social animals in big cities.

The layout and function of this living space is similar to that of renting a room, but only more comfortable.

Because this is designed according to the needs put forward by Xu Chuxia, she can take her and her children to space in the future, and the problem of weightlessness is easy to solve, as long as you keep giving Shuidi 3 an acceleration of 1G forward.

Of course, considering that Wei Ming has more scenarios for personal use, all living facilities are made of super materials and reinforced, which can withstand no more than 50G overload, that is, it will not affect the functional requirements.

Together with the perimeter storage room with an average depth of 3 meters, an average height of 3 meters and an average circumference of 22 meters, there is still 150 cubic meters of usable space in addition to the volume occupied by various types of equipment.

Dozens of tons of water, dozens of tons of compressed air, dozens of tons of food and other supplies can be stored.

In addition to hydrogen fuel cells for power generation, there is no need to put a large amount of fuel and working fluid into it.

In the end, it can last for at least a family of four to live in space for more than six months.

Note: If Wei Ming can let go of his mental cleanliness and is willing to drink the recycled water, then it will be no problem to increase the maintenance time to more than a year.

The above is the basic information of the new 'Water Drop No. 3'.

Considering that the first batch of 20 million tons of supplies catapulted to Mars will arrive near Mars on April 28, he will have to go over to 'receive' at that time.

Therefore, after being proficient in various operations and filling up the 'Water Drop No. 3' with all kinds of materials.

……

On the evening of April 20th.

"Go home!"

Wei Ming let out a low snort, and drove the water drop No. 3 to the back yard of Mingxia's villa, like a fairy magic weapon, flying out of thin air and falling smoothly.

Immediately sat out of a shallow pit in the grass, after all, it weighed nearly 1,000 tons.
