my magic industry

Chapter 225 Coal and Iron Project
As for the equipment and process design of the iron and steel plant where he had been working for a year, Xia Lin was very familiar with it.

However, even though he decided to use a blast furnace to smelt iron, due to limited conditions and time constraints, the blast furnace designed by Xia Lin was not a large blast furnace in the large-scale steel factories in the previous life, but a common one in the small steel factories that were popular in the previous life. small blast furnace.

The design height of this small blast furnace is 10.3m, and the diameter of the bottom is 5.4m. , Furnace throat, material bell, hopper, and gas outlet are accompanied by hot blast stoves.

It can be said that except that the height is only 1/5 of a large blast furnace, the furnace shell is made of red bricks instead of steel plates, and it consumes more energy and discharges more waste, it basically has everything that a blast furnace should have.

The effective charging volume inside such a blast furnace can reach 46 cubic meters. Uncoked coal must not be used as fuel for a material column of this size. This is why Xia Lin had to build a coking plant before building a blast furnace. The reason for the production of coke.

As for the processing of equipment, it is not a problem to have the steel machine tools developed by the dwarf masters. Although these machines are huge, they do not require high precision, and those steel machine tools are sufficient.

Among them, the most demanding one should be the double-toothed roller crusher for crushing clean coal. It is really difficult to crush the clean coal with the metal teeth on the two large toothed rollers.

However, Xia Lin quickly eliminated the idea of ​​using a double-toothed roller crusher to crush clean coal, because no matter how he calculated, he found that the power provided by the waterwheel could not meet the minimum requirements for driving this powerful machine.

As for the magic motor, there are at least seven or eight days before the research and development of the spinning technique can be completed. It will take at least ten days before the magic motor is formally finalized and produced, and even if it is finalized and produced, it is temporarily uncertain whether the power that the magic motor can provide can reach The current level of hydraulic power can provide, so Xia Lin still designs the equipment according to the existing power at hand.

The same problem is also encountered with the conveyor belt. The height of the blast furnace designed by Xia Lin is 10.3m. If you want to feed from the top, you must use a conveyor belt, but the hydraulic power is not enough to drive the conveyor belt with a high load capacity. Xia Lin only Can repeatedly reduce the design load.

Finally, when the load was 23 kg per square meter, the gearbox converted the power of the water wheel into three rotations per second, providing greater torque, and the conveyor belt moved at a speed of about 0.5m/s, he found that the power provided by the water wheel was barely enough up.

In this case, the speed of the conveyor belt can barely meet the continuous production requirements of this blast furnace, and Xia Lin is finally relieved.

If the conveyor belt is not good enough, then the blast furnace is a joke. After all, no one can hire a bunch of manual workers to fill the blast furnace from the top of the non-stop production.

As for the problem of the crusher, although the dust problem is serious and the efficiency is still low, Xia Lin can only use the simplest gravity crusher.

The working principle of this kind of gravity crusher is to use hydraulic power to slowly raise a huge metal hammer through the gear set, and then let it fall freely, and use its gravity potential energy to crush the clean coal in the working box.

After completing the plan for the steel industry, it is estimated that the total investment in the coking plant and the steelmaking plant will be about 40 gold lents. After withdrawing the funds from the commercial bank, Xia Lin began to organize the machine tool factory to arrive at the industrial park. The ten dwarf masters and a group of [-] employees from the sugar factory and soda factory in the industrial park began to specialize in the research of these equipment.

These employees have worked in the sugar and soda ash production line for a period of time and are familiar with the industrial production process.

At that time, they only need to carry out special safety and operation training for them, and it will not take long to set up a basic shelf in the coking plant and steel plant.

Before the official launch of the research, Xia Lin gathered these fifty people, and prepared to mobilize them on the ribbon-cutting ceremony table where the carpet had not been dismantled.

Xia Lin asked four employees to move two wooden boxes, one large and one small, and put them beside her. Looking around at the 50 people in the audience, she asked:

"Good afternoon everyone! I'm your boss, Xia Lin. Have you seen these two boxes next to me? Are you curious about what's inside?"

"Boss, what's in there? Could it be ale for us?"

Seeing Xia Lin's mysterious appearance, Master Edgar was the first to ask curiously. The other employees were naturally full of curiosity, but they respected Xia Lin very much and did not dare to speak casually like Master Edgar. ask a question.

"Haha, since everyone is interested, let everyone take a look!"

Xia Lin smiled at the dwarf masters who were addicted to alcohol, bent down and opened the lids of the two wooden boxes, and lifted the boxes with the magician's hand to let everyone see the contents, and the wooden box on his right revealed A dazzling golden light is a whole box of Jinlunte, and the box on his left is full of piles of sorted and rolled papers.

"Jin Lunte! A lot of Jin Lunte!!!"

"My God, does the boss want to give us bonuses?!"

"What are you thinking? We have just arrived in the industrial park. How can we get a bonus if we don't do anything?! The group of people who are also Master Faen should get first!"

"Plain, the Molten Lord! Boss, what are those blueprints?"

Unlike those ordinary employees, Master Edgar, who works with Xia Lin's drawings every day, recognized at a glance that the box on the left was filled with drawings.

There was at least several hundred drawings in a whole box. He had never seen so many drawings since he came to the industrial park. Master Edgar couldn't help but shouted and asked in shock.

"I believe everyone has seen that on my right is a box containing 2200 gold lunds, and on my left is a box containing a total of 674 blueprints. These two boxes are the reason why I summoned you here today."

"That is the steel industry plan of our Xinglan Industrial Park!
The rapid development of the industrial park during this period is believed to be seen by everyone, but the price of the rapid development is that our factories consume a lot of raw materials every day.

As long as you are a little more careful, you will be able to see that there are more and more ships passing by the docks of our industrial park every day, and more and more workers are moving raw materials.

A few days ago, Master Edgar told me that there is no steel available in the market. Do you know what this means?

This means that the development of our industrial park has come to a standstill!Steel is the backbone of industry. Take a look at the machinery and equipment around you. Do not use a lot of steel on it. If there is no steel, our industrial park will not be able to continue to thrive, and everyone's life will not be further improved!

My employees, do you think this will work? ! "

"No! No!"

"We want steel!"

As a race that has been accompanied by steel and furnaces all its life, the dwarf masters in the audience shouted.

"Yes, we want steel! That's why I have these two boxes with me!
In this box, 2200 gold Lunte will be used for the establishment of the steel industry, and the remaining part will be shared equally among all of you employees who have contributed to this process as bonuses after the establishment of the steel industry!

At the same time, after the dressing plant, steel plant, and coking plant are successfully established, you will be promoted to managers of these two new factories!

If the steel industry is successfully established, but there is no money left in the end, then I will personally take out 50 gold rents, so that each of you can get a huge bonus of 1 gold rents!

And this box contains all the blueprints needed to establish the steel industry. In the next difficult days, we must sink our hearts and work hard to overcome various difficulties and build the steel backbone of our industrial park!

Tell me, do you have faith? ! "

"Have!"

"We must build a steel industry!"

Although the impression of the steel industry that Xia Lin mentioned was only at the level of the blacksmith shop, under the stimulation of Jin Lunte and the promotion of status, all the employees except the dwarf master turned red and shouted loudly .

"Very good! Next, let's officially start tackling key problems in the steel industry!"

Xia Lin waved his hand and looked at the slums not far away, as if he had seen towering reinforced concrete buildings slowly rising into the sky.
