Chapter 770 Power Plant Expansion
Of course, it is not that larger equipment will not be developed, and it is not that Li Zhao is not interested in ultra-supercritical, but the next research is not so easy, many times the equipment is not blindly expanded to succeed, there must be a reasonable design, this design without Li Zhao's participation, the progress is difficult to get up quickly, after all, many times, researchers do not have the courage of Li Zhao, after all, Li Zhao is not afraid of failure.
Now Li Zhao is really a big man, he failed once or twice, it will only make people sigh, such as "This guy is also a human, you see that he will also fail, fortunately, he has not always succeeded, otherwise how can we chase it."
So if Li Zhao fails, it is estimated that he is happy to see it, and others fail, then it may be a catastrophe, many people will lose confidence directly, and the superiors may also lose confidence in this person, after all, Li Zhao is too successful, since he led the project, it has always been efficient, money-saving, and amazing, in the eyes of many people, Li Zhao is no longer a normal person, if there is an alien in this era, he is.
Therefore, in the absence of Li Zhao, the research of the group is relatively conservative, and a lot of pre-research will be carried out, until a lot of things are studied, and then the design will be started, which will take a lot of time, but this is also beneficial, Li Zhao's jumping design, the foundation is not solid, and it is quite unfavorable for the future development, that is, many research institutes have been established now, so as not to be unable to continue.
Without him, it is because of these research institutes that they are carrying out a large number of theories and pre-project research to provide a foundation for the subsequent development of the factory, and when Li Zhao completes the aircraft project, he will basically have to carry out such research, and it is already difficult for him to come up with a large number of results in a short period of time, such as stealth fighters, which are uploaded on the principle network, but can you take them out? That's impossible.
First of all, the perspective of each part, that is, I don't know how many tests can be taken out, do you want to use your imagination to come out? No kidding, unless you have a full set of drawings, otherwise you are holding a camera to shoot, and you have to go through a lot of research before it is possible to copy it, and then the coatings, composite materials, electronic systems, radar systems, etc., are all unimaginable, not at all casual can be done.
It can be said that all the conditions are given to Li Zhao, with the research team in the factory plus Li Zhao, within ten years, it may not be able to make the first flight, Li Zhao's more optimistic conjecture is the first flight in 20 to 30 years, in the middle, is to continue to study the current aircraft and the next single-engine aircraft, carry out continuous upgrading, and finally accumulate enough experience, train a team, and develop a stealth fighter after 20 to 30 years.
Therefore, basic research is very important, Li Zhao brought them in, but accumulation is still needed, and the time for this accumulation is also very long, and it cannot be completed overnight.
With the arrival of everyone, the preparation work was almost completed, the operators of the power plant began to test run, and the first time was about the same, the equipment quickly ran normally, this time to be honest, Li Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief, this time the equipment in the performance of the big cut, but obviously in line with the design requirements.
However, the most important thing is that there is a huge reduction in the cost of equipment, which is the most important thing, after all, it is a full 20% cost, which will save a lot of money in the future construction, which is very important. After all, we are a poor country, and the gross national product is only 100 billion rubles, which is very low, and the fiscal revenue is also low, only more than 100 billion yuan.
To know the country of this era, what is the GDP of the bald eagle? It is fifteen times that of us, and the big hair is ten times that of us, which is a huge gap, so no matter where to save some, it is very important, not to mention such heavy equipment, which itself is expensive, and a reduction of 20% is a lot of money.
After the equipment is running normally, the 100,000 kilowatts of equipment in the factory began to gradually shut down, and now there are two supercritical units, so the next step is to run as few 100,000 kilowatt units as possible, after all, the cost is high.
After watching the trial production, everyone also walked into the conference room and started the meeting, first of all, of course, praise and reward
A series of people, then the leader of the mechanical system said, "Now that the construction of this one has been completed, what are your plans for next? Whether to continue to build new power generation units, the power gap is still not small, and whether you have finally determined what kind of greenhouse to build, now time is running out."
Hearing the leader say this, Su's father said at this time: "The leader's new 65,000 acres of glass greenhouse, we don't plan to build a supplemental light model, our current external image is a technologically weak country, once on that model, and normal operation, isn't everything exposed?" And after almost a year of operation, although the fill light mode is very good, the cost is still too high and not suitable for us now."
After all, the existing model is already very powerful, and there is no need to pursue technology excessively for the sake of being advanced.
Li Zhao also said at this time: "The leadership is now short of electricity is not only in the capital, it can be said that the whole country is short of electricity, all in order to protect the industry, so that other industries can give in, now the test has proved the performance of the equipment, has been able to carry out large-scale expansion and construction of power plants, if the demand is really huge, we can also directly set up a new generator factory, what do you think?" We still have a lot of orders for motors and generators."
This kind of large-scale generator set technology, Li Zhao does not want to hand it over, think about the future, the annual power generation will reach 8 trillion kWh, the difference in the middle, it can also be said to be 8 trillion kWh, the power generation of this era is really not worth mentioning, what a huge market this is? The gap of more than 900 million kilowatts of installed capacity, now this kind of equipment, that is, nearly 3,000 sets, enough for decades of production in the factory, is a long-term big business.
After a deep sigh, the leader said, "After you set up a separate production factory, how many units can you guarantee? It's not okay to have less, and now it's true that there is a shortage of electricity in the whole country, and all parts of the country are reporting the construction of power plants."
Li Zhao glanced at Father Su at this time, and reported a more conservative number: "How about an annual output of thirty sets of generator sets? With an installed capacity of 10 million kilowatts, it can generate 100 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity per year.
Li Zhao's words are not small, this amount is no smaller than Da Mao, and it can directly more than double the total power generation, but Li Zhao's words are still quite bluffing, it depends on whether the leader has this will.
When Li Zhao finished speaking, the leader did not reply directly, and after some contemplation, he said: "I will give you an answer after reporting this to my superiors, but you tell me, if it is the limit of production, how much can you produce?"
Li Zhao was a little speechless when he heard this, is this something that the factory can decide? Isn't this determined by the same output, to know how much copper is produced in this era? It's just more than 100,000 tons, and where it is used, it is almost everywhere, but this will have to be explained, otherwise the leader is easy to misunderstand, after all, it is too copper-consuming here.
Li Zhao said at this time: "Leader, you may forget, our factory is a big copper user, our country's annual copper output is only more than 100,000 tons, if our factory produces 30 sets of generator sets every year, the amount of copper used will already exceed 10,000 tons, so it is not appropriate to increase production, even if there is a generator, there is no wire, it is not possible, and we are not only short of copper, we also lack aluminum, and it is unlikely to replace it with aluminum wire."
This era is an era in which nothing is lacking, is it only copper? Of course not, there is a shortage of aluminum, the production of aluminum is an electrolytic process, the lack of electricity will inevitably lack aluminum, of course, there will be a shortage of copper, after all, refining copper also needs electrolysis, the 998 factory now consumes a lot of copper and aluminum every year, no matter how much it can not be supplied at all.
After listening to Li Zhao's words, the leader was also suddenly, how could he not know the lack of these raw materials, but he was stimulated by the output of thirty sets, you set up a special factory and only produced thirty units, which is too little, but after careful calculation, it was found that if you want people to produce more, it is impossible, there are no raw materials.
At this time, the leader said: "Thirty sets are thirty sets, first of all, to supply power to copper and aluminum production plants, first lay a solid foundation, let's set up a separate factory, you want to come to this factory for a long time."
Indeed, all along, the production of motors and generators has existed in the form of workshops.
After all, although the demand is quite large, but it is also a large workshop thing, now to produce this kind of large generator set, that in the current factory, it is obviously not suitable, the equipment is too miscellaneous, easy to mess.
The superior agreed, and everyone in the factory was happy, Li Zhao was afraid that the superior would let the drawings be shared, but fortunately, the leader did not let this time, after all, this production, in order to be able to achieve strength, used 80,000 tons of die forging machine, maybe using this die forging machine is a bit overkill, but the use of 10,000 tons or even thousands of tons is obviously a bit small, maybe it is because of this that the project will not be spread.
