Chapter 950 Attempt to connect the island with wind power
In Liandao, Qu Mao and Li Xiang inspected the actual situation and planned the Liandao Reservoir, but it was calculated that the Liandao Reservoir would basically not solve the power dilemma of the Liandao factory, and Qu Mao felt a little frustrated.
But a gust of wind blew on Qu Mao's face, giving Qu Mao an instant inspiration.
At present, the industrial power researched by the Yihou Territory Power Research Institute is not only hydropower, but also wind power.
The application of wind power is even higher than that of water power. After all, Su Qiaoer has built windmills and mills in the territory of Liusu Principality on the main mainland. Except for the application of water power in the outlying island reservoir village blacksmith shop and carpentry workshop, it is only used in outlying island textile factories and dry islands. There are applications in textile factories, and Kong Ming is currently expanding the application of hydropower in industrial facilities on Dry Island.
Lian Dao was originally a barren island. Except for the three islands in the southeast that are now planted with grass, most of the other islands are still bare, except for the tall and straight roadsides that Li Xiang planted every 20 meters on both sides of the road when he built the road. Outside the trees, the height of the roadside trees does not exceed 5 meters at present.
On the Lian Island, most of the areas are fully exposed to the sea breeze, almost everywhere will be blown by the sea breeze, and the higher the hillside, the stronger the sea breeze.
Thinking of this, Qu Mao said to Li Xiang: "Li Xiang, if the Liandao Reservoir is still under construction, and other insufficient industrial power, how about we replace it with wind power?
The so-called wind power is like the power of grinding in a windmill. "
Li Xiang's eyes lit up, and he said, "My lord, if the wind power can make up for half of the industrial power, the project volume of the Liandao Reservoir can be reduced by at least half."
After briefly communicating some details with Li Xiang, Qu Mao said: "Let's go, Li Xiang, let's go back to Liancheng, and I will draw you the construction planning drawings of Liandao Reservoir later, and at the same time, I will also give you the construction drawings of the seven artificial rivers." For you, pay attention to utilizing the existing ditches during construction.
Looking back, I will contact Kong Ming to see the use of wind power in Liandao, and try to make a model. "
Li Xiang said: "Yes, my lord.
Please rest assured, the subordinates of Liandao Reservoir and Liandao Windmill will complete the project as soon as possible, even though the Ministry of Infrastructure is currently in charge of Master Wang Mao. "
Qu Mao nodded. After returning to Liancheng, Qu Mao immediately locked himself in the City Lord's Mansion of Liancheng, and drew the construction plan of Liandao Reservoir.
Afterwards, Qu Mao took out his magic communication crystal and contacted Kong Ming.
After Kong Ming connected to the remote communication, Qu Mao told Kong Ming the actual situation of Lian Dao, and then expressed his attempt to conduct a wind power test on Lian Dao.
Kong Ming said that he still needs some time in Gandao, and suggested that Qu Mao draw up the construction drawings first, and then try again when he arrives.
Qu Mao sighed, and said: "Kong Ming, since that's the case, I'll go to Bo Island and Green Island first, and draw the construction planning drawings of the Bo River Reservoir and the Green River Reservoir.
After that, I will go back to Liandao to consider the planning drawings of Liandao’s wind power application. I don’t think it is very difficult. It is nothing more than the same transmission device for hydrodynamics, which converts the impeller rotation of the water flow at the source into the impeller of the windmill driven by the wind. "
Kong Ming said: "My lord, it shouldn't be difficult, and I will be sure after the subordinates come down to carry out the experiment. You should be busy with other things first.
The subordinates are on Dry Island, and they have also replaced the power systems of several factories with water power. Besides, don't give up halfway. "
In just one afternoon, Qu Mao completed the inspection of Green Island and Bo Island, and also planned the reservoir construction drawings of Bo Island and Green Island.
Bo Island and Green Island currently have a relatively large number of residents, and the residents are relatively scattered. It is obviously impossible to solve the hydropower of the entire Green Island and Bo Island with a single reservoir, but it is almost enough to solve most of them.
On January 2, the fifth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao rushed back to Gandao overnight, and handed over the planning drawings for the reservoir construction of Green Island and Bodao to Wang Mao who was still preparing for the construction of the dry river reservoir on Gandao.
On January 3, the fifth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao and Kong Ming met at Gandao Military Port, boarded a shuttle boat, and drove towards the North Port of Liandao. Conceived diagram.
Kong Ming carefully looked at the schematic diagram of wind power that Qu Mao had laid out, and said, "Well, my lord, the principle is similar to that of a windmill."
Qu Mao tapped on the wind power concept map that was spread out, and said: "Yes, but the power provided by industrial windmills is required to be greater and more stable."
Kong Ming pointed to the sketch with the handle of the goose feather fan, and asked, "My lord, why is the drawing blurred here?"
Qu Mao smiled wryly and said: "After drawing several times, I couldn't fully express the meaning I wanted to express, so I simply painted out this part.
In fact, it is the power transmission mechanism. The power of the windmill mill only needs to be transmitted to the mill, but the wind power for industrial use may have to be transmitted to more equipment.
I think you can copy the water power transmission mechanism of the dry island textile factory and try it out. "
Kong Ming shook his goose feather fan, nodded, and said, "My lord, I think the transmission mechanism is not the most difficult part. We have actually tried wind power, and now windmills can be seen everywhere on the 15 islands in the Holy Land.
Otherwise, when experimenting, we will find a windmill on Liandao and try it out. After the industrial facilities can be driven to rotate, we will test a brand new windmill. "
Qu Mao said: "Kong Ming, your idea is in the experimental stage, so you can definitely do that.
But I am thinking of two solutions: the first is to make the impeller of the windmill bigger and wider, so that the energy generated by one rotation will be greater; the second is to build multiple A windmill, a windmill driving a few machines and equipment should also be able to solve this problem.
However, the construction of the former is difficult, and the transmission device will definitely be more complicated; the latter is very dependent on the terrain. "
Kong Ming said: "My lord, let's experiment first. In addition, we have to consider how to solve the problem of excessive wind."
Qu Mao said: "Kong Ming, look at this part of the drawing, I designed to use different gear sets to control the power output speed, but this control mechanism should have a certain limit range."
Kong Ming put down the goose feather fan, took out a pen, spent a few simple strokes, and said: "My lord, I can't figure it out, so I can only do it first and try it out, take a windmill to experiment, and get some basic data. Then, try a new one.”
Qu Mao smiled and said: "Kong Ming, I just like your style of doing what you say.
Let’s set up a project, the manpower is not enough, let’s just say, we try to mobilize more manpower. "
Kong Ming said: "Leave it to the subordinates. You don't need to worry about it, sir. Check the results in a month."
