Chapter 369 Operation and Municipal Administration
The operation of steam engines is not picky about fuel.
This means that even if you chop two pieces of wood and throw them in, these steam engines can still operate normally.
The steam engines used in the territory are the same, except that they can bear higher cylinder pressure.
Since the Earth, the first steam engine was born in the late 17th century, and the first steam train and steamship were not until the early 19th century. It took more than a hundred years from its birth to its application in large-scale machinery.
But by learning the steam engine technology of another world, the territory basically skipped the initial experimental stage of steam engines and moved to a general steam engine that can be used in machinery.
Abandoning the heavy fixed appearance, it can provide power and functions for a large number of equipment and deliver energy to thousands of households.
Such steam engines represent the first industrial revolution from fixed machinery to general machinery. These steam engines began to be used in the transportation industry that is closer to people's lives.
These are all off-topic. Just know that the territory has a steam engine that can be used.
Say goodbye to the dean and explain to them that I will hold a commendation meeting when winter ends and next spring comes.
Ji Lin walked to the coast, and saw the sailing fishing boats returning to the territory along the waves. He watched the fishermen who were still trying to catch fish from the sea in the low temperature environment.
They were still using the most traditional sails and oars, which prevented their small boat from going to deeper waters.
The fishing boats needed to be upgraded...
Replacing manpower with steam engines allowed fishermen to bring back a large amount of catch from the relatively calm offshore more efficiently.
He flipped through the large number of blueprints provided by the system, among which there were a large number of buildings that obviously did not belong to the Earth.
The steam supply tower used steam pipes to connect to nearby buildings to provide them with additional steam.
The steam machinery supply station, an automatic station for replenishing energy for steam machinery, can maintain the long-term operation of steam machinery at a fixed location.
The steam buildings that humans once imagined also appeared in the system's blueprint store, with the simultaneous assistance of magic and rune technology.
It is not completely following the technical route on Earth.
With the help of the iterative ability provided by the system to technological civilization.
The research and development of the territory is seriously unbalanced. Bolt-action rifles and steam engines have reached the level of the Earth in the 19th century. Their research began in the colonial era/the fourth era.
And these two are true fifth-era technologies.
From theory to practice, from experiment to production capacity.
The steel smelting technology is still stuck in the old era, using a large number of small blast furnaces to stably produce steel; agricultural auxiliary equipment is also stuck in the old era, using the simplest and most practical wooden and iron tools for farming.
Combat steam machinery... The wear and tear of their joints makes them very unsuitable for production in the territory before they are improved...
Otherwise, after a day's work, it is not as expensive as the parts consumed by steam mechanical constructs.
After looking around, Ji Lin found the most suitable building for the territory, which is both practical and cost-effective.
'Medium steam engine water supply room (unlock large steam engine water supply room after developing heavy fixed steam engine)'
'It can provide hot water for up to 5,000 households. It needs to be used in conjunction with a water purification plant. Please pay attention to the scale problem. '
'Improved steam engine: The water supply efficiency caused by the steam engine is increased by 20%. ’
‘Crystal fuel: low production cost, -90% fuel cost. ’
‘After the building is built, the system will automatically lay pipes. Iron and copper materials are needed to build the pipes. After the construction is completed, it will be deducted from the warehouse. When the remaining materials cannot be deducted, other materials in the warehouse will be deducted to offset the material loss. ’
‘If you need the system to help build a pipeline system, please submit a blueprint that has passed the feasibility verification. ’
‘With this thing, we don’t need to run far to fetch water every day! ’
The steam engine water supply room can deliver both hot and cold water directly to every household through pipes. He can also choose a more cost-effective solution... Only one hot water room is set up in each house.
Then the water pump driven by the steam engine supplies water, allowing the medium-sized steam engine water supply room to cover a wider area.
Two water supply rooms, one cold water and one hot water.
Drainage and water supply... Every civilization with a rapidly increasing population must face the problem, and only in the steam engine era can technology provide a better solution.
From Rome to Chang'an, water supply and drainage problems plague every city with a million people.
Open-air drainage system, seepage wells and drainage pipes.
The large number of simple open-air drainage systems that Ji Lin had built since the third era began to show signs of fatigue by the end of the fourth era - he didn't want his territory to become a place where sewage was flowing.
Many cities with over-expanded populations will develop into a place where sewage is constantly flowing. If various domestic and industrial water are not properly treated, they will develop into... For example, India.
However, the open-air drainage water supply system in the territory can still carry a little more population before collapse. Because of the centralized accommodation, the treatment of sewage is much easier to handle and manage than ordinary cities.
He rubbed his eyebrows and decided to go back and ask his affairs officer to discuss the water treatment problem. He is the commander, not a municipal management design expert who came out of nowhere...
And the reply from Li Yan...
He hasn't replied yet.
Ji Lin glanced at his chat list and didn't reply.
He decided to sit next to the experimental factory and watch the seabirds fishing. Under the setting sun, the graceful shadows rose and fell, bringing a trace of water and the big fish that were still struggling. The seabirds that caught their prey flapped their wings and returned to the high tree nests built for them in the territory to feed their young birds.
Footsteps, is it the dean who has other work to report?
Ji Lin did not turn his head, still watching the flock of birds circling in the distance.
"Guess who I am~"
A pair of hands covered his eyes, and the girl's gentle voice came from behind him.
