From October 20th.

In the next half a month.

Over there at the big pit camp.

Chen Jin fell into a very busy state.

Use the Universal Capsule Factory to print wind turbine parts and build generators!

Of course, Chen Jin is not busy alone, there are hundreds of powerful robots on the side, helping him and acting as free coolies.

So there's not much to do with him.

Even so, he was tired enough to ask him to solve a lot of troubles and conduct command and dispatch.

The first is the issue of energy supply to the capsule plant.

The capsule factory is also a factory, and it also has the characteristics of "high power consumption".

Its normal standby power consumption is 20KW, the conventional power is 80KW, and the maximum power is 300kw!

Chen Jin cut off the power supply to the supercomputer (the data has been exported in advance) and connected all the 30KW household circuits in his room to the capsule factory.

It is also just a matter of getting the capsule plant up smoothly and in a state of work readiness.

For it to work, there is at least a power gap of 60KW.

How can this gap be filled?

High-energy batteries.

A large 10 kg high energy battery can provide a maximum output power of 3KW.

Twenty large high-energy batteries are connected in parallel, which is enough to provide the power needed to run the capsule plant.

However, under the high-power working state of 3KW, the large high-energy battery can only work for 12 hours, and it will emit a lot of heat, and the safety of the battery will be affected.

The only way to do this is to drive the Expedition 1, which has 100 large high-energy batteries in the battery compartment, to provide sufficient power as an energy supply vehicle.

Even so, the capsule factory still consumes more electricity than expected, and even if all the batteries are fully charged, the 'Adventure 1' can only keep the capsule factory running for about 20 hours.

This means that hundreds of large high-energy batteries have to be replaced almost every day.

And a large high-energy battery, weighing up to ten kilograms.

Multiply by 100......

On this side of the planet, Chen Jinde goes to the charging factory in Baoshan Industrial Zone every day to carry a one-ton high-energy battery onto the car.

Then move the 302 where I live piece by piece.

There is no elevator in the staircase, so you can only go up to the third floor!

Move up and down and repeat it every day.

The hand was numb, and the leg cramped when I walked, but I had to hold on!

Even so, on the fifth day, the charging speed of the battery at the charging factory gradually could not keep up with the power consumption speed of the capsule factory, and the problem of power shortage began to appear.

Fortunately, the manufacturing workload of the ten wind turbines is not large, and on the sixth day, the parts and components that need to be printed are all printed in the capsule factory.

Then the module is assembled, and the three major components of the generator blade, the generator host and the support column are assembled.

The second is to choose where the wind turbine will be placed.

Since it is a wind turbine, there is no doubt that it must be installed in a place with strong wind power to generate better power generation.

Only when the wind power reaches the standard, the power generation power of the wind turbine can reach the rated 30KW.

So on the issue of site selection, Chen Jin bought a wind force speedometer on the other side of the earth, which was hoisted by the DJI Phantom 4Pro drone and rose 20 meters into the air to measure the wind speed.

In the end, two more suitable sites were selected.

Location 1, located 30 kilometers northwest of a rocky ridge, more than 300 meters above sea level, not far from the battlefield, after the calculation of the usual wind speed as high as 25m/s, the maximum instantaneous wind speed of more than 35m/s, can fully enable the wind turbine to reach full power generation state.

The disadvantage is that the distance is long and the transportation is inconvenient.

Site 2 is located on an unnamed dirt mountain five kilometers to the east, the altitude of this earth mountain is not high, relatively flat, but because it belongs to the prominent part of the plain landform, the average wind speed on the mountain reaches 15 m/s, and the intermittent wind speed can reach more than 25 m/s.

The advantage is that the distance is close and the transportation is convenient.

The disadvantage is that the power generation is low, and it may not reach full load.

After some weighing.

The wind turbines were installed at the site, and Chen Jinxuan was placed on an unnamed earth hill five kilometers to the east.

The reason is for the safety of the generator.

In the northwest direction of the rocky mountain range, the wind speed is usually large, once the weather changes suddenly, the instantaneous wind force can even reach more than 50m/s, this wind force exceeds the structural capacity of the wind turbine, and the support column may be blown by the strong wind.

The device is not very secure.

Recently, the weather in the northern hemisphere has become cooler and the north wind is getting stronger and stronger, so wind power generation equipment is not suitable for installation in places with large winds.

Five kilometers to the east, the wind is slightly lighter, but the equipment is safer.

And the distance is very close, and the earth mountain is easier to excavate and easier to install than the stone mountain.

The place of installation was determined.

Chen Jin led the robots to set off, and let the robots carry the various parts of the wind turbine and set off towards the nameless earth mountain in the east.

"In this position, first dig a big hole in the ground with a diameter of three meters and a depth of five meters."

"Insert some high-strength rebar and throw some gravel blocks inside the rebar cage columns."

"Carry the scrap steel that was removed from the football stadium in Trissy."

"Repair the robot, start the laser, heat the scrap steel, melt the molten steel into it, and fill it up except for the wind turbine mounting hole!"

Not bad!

On the planet Helfa, there is no ready-made cement.

But there is enough scrap steel.

Chen Jin asked the robot to get thousands of tons of scrap steel, melt it into molten iron at high temperature, and fill it into the foundation pit as the installation base of the wind turbine.

Each pedestal melts 100 tons of molten steel into it, and the molten steel mixed reinforced gravel structure is definitely much more reliable than the reinforced concrete structure!

In addition, the cylindrical mounting hole reserved for the installation base can be fitted with the support column cylinder of the wind turbine, and after the lock buckle is opened, it can be rotated 360 degrees, so that the wind turbine is facing that side to improve the power generation efficiency.

And ten robots, you can complete daily maintenance.

The installation of the entire wind turbine took a total of three days.

In the end, it took a few more days to install the transformer, voltage regulator, current collector, and power storage equipment, and pull out a 10-kilometer-long transmission cable.

After some debugging.

On the fifteenth day.

Wind turbine group officially connected to the grid for power generation.

The supercomputer rebooted, and Alice, the artificial intelligence in charge of monitoring, said:

"Master, the average power generation power of the current power generation facilities is 260KW, and the maximum power generation is 280KW, which is enough for a small farm."

"Well, my camp finally has electricity!"

Chen Jin nodded, greatly relieved.

The problem of energy shortage in Dakeng camp has been temporarily solved, and it has gotten rid of the dependence on electricity on the other side of the earth.

But it is still too early to say that the energy problem will be completely solved.

Because there are too many large electricity users!

Modified car Explorer One, supercomputer, capsule factory...... These three things can use up all the power generation of 260KW.

There is also a Blue Angel electric car, more than 100 robots, several electric motorcycles, lasers and other tools...... The combined electricity consumption of these small electricity consumers is also very substantial.

Chen Jin estimates that only when the number of wind turbines increases to 40 and the total power generation reaches more than 1,000KW, can it meet the electricity needs of the Dakeng camp.

However, the raw materials for printing are not enough at hand, and in order to increase the number of wind turbines, it is necessary to wait for the collected materials to be sufficient before starting construction.

"It's better to expand the power facilities after a while, I'm tired enough for half a month, I have to take a good rest and buffer!"

"The power generation of 260KW is barely enough for the time being, and the household wires pulled over from the other side of the earth can be unplugged; The charging factory in Baoshan Industrial Zone can also end its mission. ”

"Undoubtedly, getting rid of the dependence on the earth's electricity, the risk of secret exposure is greatly reduced, and a relatively huge hidden danger has been eradicated."

"Now, I've finally let go of some of my heart."
