Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 744 Lit up Song Xiaoyu
Through the craftsmanship of the shipyard, one can almost see the overall industrial level of Datang. After walking around, Sun Xiangfu had to lament that once human beings start to embark on the path of scientific development, then progress will be everywhere.

The situation that all things had to be assembled by a group of people in the past no longer exists. Now the shipyard wants to process good wood. There can be dozens of forest farms and professional wood processing workers. The shipyard only needs to check the quality when it is delivered in batches, and it can be supplied directly to the material workshop, and there is almost no need to worry about insufficient quantity.

In addition, smelting, screw nuts, oranges, steel plate pouring, various processes, the person in charge only needs to take a look at it to know whether it is his own process, and then use the fastest and most standard Practice, complete their own work links with quality and quantity.

Of course, this is just a matter of mass production. After the technology is formed, it is a relatively simple link.

The real improvement is the R&D department. Almost all of them are material experts. They can figure out where to use what material, or what is better, more cost-effective, but does not affect the effect.

The hulls of various volumes have how much internal space, how much buoyancy these spaces will cause the ship, different hull weights, different draft tonnages, and different drafts, how much pressure and impact can it resist? The calculated reference table, so as long as they have completely calculated and built the ship according to the standard, it will rarely capsize or be unstable when used.

After all, the structure of the current ship is relatively simple, and there are few things that need to be calculated.

Like in later generations, India's high-end electronic computing capabilities are not bad, but when they build big ships, they often capsize.

It is precisely because once the ship is built large and the decoration is complicated, it is not just a simple calculation problem, but also considers the overall logical management ability and management unity.

Today the person who installed the windows came to install the windows, tomorrow the person who installed the toilets came to install the toilets, and the day after tomorrow someone came to install bed frames, cabinets, water supply systems, power supply systems, lamps, dining tables, etc., etc., and so on. After pretending, they often don't know the specific data at the end.

Then, there is no unified planning for the cargo space, activity space, etc., and there is no repeated model tests. When launching, encounter bumps, and accidents are naturally prone to occur.

Of course, this has something to do with them being poor and reluctant to spend more money on research and development experiments.

Therefore, being poor is still the original sin.

But Datang has no such scruples. They can spend money on research and development at will. The profit of the shipyard is enough for them to build a ship and dismantle it. Don’t feel bad about the new ship. When multiple plans are proposed by the researchers, they can even directly open multiple research lines and conduct research experiments at the same time. This is how the Prince is born. This ship is seen by Sun Xiangfu. Come on, all feel very good steamship.

In such an environment mode, researchers only need to use their imagination, design, and experiment. It is no wonder that it has made such great progress in a few years, applying steam engines to ships.

Sun Xiangfu and his team soon came to the design and research team of the shipyard. As soon as the double doors were opened, Sun Xiangfu was the first to see a huge blueprint on the opposite wall.

One only needs to look at the picture to know that it is a giant. It is presented on the drawing as a whole. The blank space, the design device of the parts, and the suggestions for materials are all marked on it, and even a lot of sticky notes are pasted on it. Paper.

The movement of Sun Xiangfu and his group was not small. When everyone who was riding on the herringbone ladder and continuing to add to this large drawing turned around, several people almost fell off the ladder. Sun Xiangfu vaguely felt that one of them A little familiar.

This person was Song Xiaoyu who he recommended to Lantian Vocational and Technical College to study culture and physics, but now, Sun Xiangfu could no longer remember his name.

"Who designed this picture?" Sun Xiangfu asked them with great interest after they figured out what was going on.

He just saw the scale marked on the bottom of the drawing, one to fifty, that is to say, this big ship with a figure of three to four meters long may be nearly 200 meters long after it is built, and its width will also reach more than 30 meters .

You know, in later generations, a 30-ton oil tanker is only less than 350 meters long, and only 50 meters wide.

Sun Xiangfu just wanted to know, who dared to think so, dared to design the ship so big, is this going to build a [-]-ton ship?

"Master Sun, yes, I designed it."

When seeing Sun Xiangfu himself, Song Xiaoyu would be inexplicably a little excited, because what this person said back then changed his fate, or more precisely, it should be knowledge that changed his fate.

When Sun Xiangfu saw this young man who looked familiar to him, he asked, "You look familiar, have we met?"

Song Xiaoyu nodded and said, "My name is Song Xiaoyu. Back then, you recommended me to study at Lantian Vocational and Technical College."

When Sun Xiangfu heard this, he remembered some things that happened when he was planning an overseas exploration and investment company. After all, this Song Xiaoyu was still the first batch of students of Lantian Vocational and Technical College, and it should be ten years since he graduated.

It is a gratifying thing that the person I recommended has become a talent. When Sun Xiangfu looked at Song Xiaoyu again, he had a smile on his face and said, "Then why did you design such a big ship? Judging from the current technology, it is still a bit impractical to build it!"

Song Xiaoyu held different opinions on this, saying, "I participated in the research and development of the entire steam engine, as well as the design and construction of the steam ship, and I think this kind of ship has great potential. As long as the steam engine research group can design and research With more powerful steam turbines, we only need to install four sets, and we can almost solve the power problem of this ship.

Although the ship will run a bit slowly, transporting some goods that do not need to be kept fresh saves more than [-]% of the cost of manpower, fuel and various materials than distributing its cargo volume to multiple small ships. "

If four sets of large steam turbines are used to propel such a ship, it will have no problem running on the sea. However, there are many other issues that need to be considered. Sun Xiangfu doesn't know much about this aspect. He nodded and said, "Your idea is very good, and there is also a market demand for the construction of such a large cargo ship, but all designs cannot be taken for granted compared to the current completed ships.

The bigger the ship is, it’s not just a matter of power. The ship’s plank may not cause any harm if it bears the weight of a ton, but the weight of ten tons, one hundred tons, and one thousand tons is piled up. Crush the entire hull of your ship, not to mention, you have tens of thousands of tons, so ah!It is difficult for you to solve the problem of pressure. "

Song Xiaoyu had already thought about the problem Sun Xiangfu mentioned, and then said, "Yes, so the whole ship I designed needs to be cast with steel, and it must be successful, otherwise , it’s hard to tear it apart…”

Speaking of the latter, Song Xiaoyu's voice became quieter, because this was the only solution it could think of to solve the pressure problem, but in fact, it was not very feasible. You must know that the internal structure of a ship is actually It is very complicated, and it is almost impossible to directly pour it into shape with molten iron. Moreover, after pouring into shape, can it bear pressure?

not necessarily.

Steel, when under heavy pressure, will deform, and it must have a load-bearing design inside.

Sun Xiangfu saw his embarrassed look, and said again, "If you want it to be shaped exactly as you want, you must improve the current hull construction mode, at least, it needs to use a more advanced connection Forming method."

"A more advanced connection forming method?" Seeing that Sun Xiangfu seemed to have a solution, Song Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly shone with a strange light, and he looked at Sun Xiangfu with anticipation.

"Now, we already have electricity. In fact, we can use it to study a temperature that can melt steel. For example, use some iron and carbon powder as a medium, so that the steel can be connected into a whole according to the needs. , Moreover, for a boat as big as yours, you can use a concave-convex steel plate with threaded holes, and then use screws to rivet it to create a stronger pure steel hull. You don’t need to think too much about the thickness of the bottom plate like a small boat. It’s just sacrificing a little load capacity, a big ship needs to be stronger.”

Regarding these aspects, Sun Xiangfu is actually just talking about it. After proposing some ideas known to future generations, let those who really study it slowly ponder over them. Don’t look at such a small suggestion. Real problems can be solved quickly.

In the mid-eighteenth century, before the advent of carbon arc welding, industrial development had been limited to a certain extent, but in fact its principle was not so difficult. A single carbon electrode was used to generate an arc between the carbon electrode and the workpiece. It can generate a temperature of [-] to [-] degrees, which is enough to reach the melting point of steel, and Datang has all these things now, and it only needs to find out a suitable release and use method.

Although this kind of single-electrode carbon arc welding consumes a lot of charcoal, Datang is not afraid of consumption at all, as long as it can produce good things, it will be fine. With single-electrode carbon arc welding, then the emergence of double-electrode carbon arc welding The day is not far away, then, in the future, things with metal structures will appear in various forms that human beings want, and even manufacturing steam turbines will become much simpler.

An idol is an idol, and he never disappoints. More than ten years ago, Sun Xiangfu had already illuminated Song Xiaoyu's life. , to play a brighter light.

Therefore, Song Xiaoyu is very excited at this moment. He wished he could get a steam generator to the shipyard immediately and test whether it can help him connect the steel plates and the internal steel structure of the hull in the desired way. If this thing is tested If it succeeds, let alone shipbuilding, the entire manufacturing industry of Datang will rise to another level.

　Thanks to Chen Anding, Shan Qingying, and the three friends who are hungry, this is not enough, thank you!

　　Begging for monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, although it has reached the end of the period, but the data is still very important, bow ninety degrees and thank all friends who voted!
