Doomsday Bunker Upgrade Chapter 256: Geothermal heating network


"What's so advanced about this thing?" The researchers looked at the mechanical parts that Chen Xin had piled up together, and didn't feel the slightest bit of advancement in this thing, and even felt that this unassembled heating hub was a little bit more advanced. Primitive, like something from the steam age.

Although steampunk is an element that was very popular before disasters, many people would like this style full of steel, steam, soot, and industrialization when they mention science fiction. They like the kind of painting that seems to live in Daigo at the height of the first industrial revolution in the eighteenth century Victorian era.

But from a scientific point of view, this is still a very backward use of energy.

Although many sci-fi works have injected indescribable black technology into steampunk, even a steam engine can drive a fortress to fly, the energy conversion efficiency of the steam engine can be magnified a hundred times, and the steam source can provide unlimited steam. The difference engine punched with paper tape can develop artificial intelligence...

But soot will only be produced if the fuel is not fully burned, and a large amount of steam will be produced only if the waste heat cannot be efficiently used and recovered. From the perspective of modern industrial aesthetics, this is undoubtedly a great waste.

In the eyes of this researcher, the pile of heating hub parts that Chen Xin has devoted a lot of effort to are not as coveted as the electromagnetic metallurgical furnace on the side.

You must know that the metallurgical furnace uses magnetic field confinement, a technology that is difficult to reproduce in the laboratory, let alone to keep the liquid metal magnetic at high temperature and still levitate.

If you can master the magnetic field confinement technology, not to mention, the research on controllable nuclear fusion will be greatly improved, making nuclear fusion a new energy source. Isn't this more efficient and cleaner than the extraction of geothermal heat?

But Chen Xin doesn't think so. Facing the doubts of the researchers, he just shook his head with a smile and said, "It is not an advanced thing in itself, and there is nothing to say about the technology of geothermal resource utilization. , is just pouring water into the ground, using geothermal heat to heat the water flow, and then pumping it up to dissipate heat.

However, the heat dissipation efficiency of this thing itself is very high. According to my design, it can create a heating field with a temperature rise of 50℃ within a radius of 200 meters. If everything goes well, I can use this for heating. Instead of manpower cleaning it up, the hub evaporates the snow from the train station where we are now.

You have just seen how people in this city load and unload materials. If the train station is not cleared, the efficiency of loading and unloading materials in this city will be difficult to improve. "

"That's right, but I still feel that it's a waste to do this. The practice of directly dissipating heat from the atmosphere is really..." The researcher struggled with his words, not knowing what to say so as not to be rude .

Chen Xin just glanced at the researcher's entanglement and did not comment too much, but still explained to him: "It is really wasteful to dissipate heat directly into the atmosphere. If this energy can be used more effectively It can indeed play a greater role, such as using thermal energy to generate electricity and then driving electrical equipment to clear these snow more efficiently.

But now Linshi obviously doesn't have these conditions. We can only rely on this relatively extensive method to clean up the snow at the train station. It will be a waste for the time being. This heating hub is transformed to supply heat and power to the railway station, and then there will be no such extensive heat dissipation. "

"It turns out that this is the case, then this is indeed feasible." After listening to Chen Xin's explanation, the researchers thought carefully and found that this is indeed feasible, and they quickly thought of this technology in their minds. It can be applied in other places: "For example, on a construction site, first establish such a heating hub, expand the heating field to increase the temperature of the area, and allow the construction to proceed smoothly. After the construction is completed, the heating hub will be transformed into the heating of the building. and power source, this is indeed a very feasible technology!"

Hearing the ideas of the researchers, Chen Xin also nodded in surprise: "That's right! Your idea is more widely applicable and more feasible than what I thought before. My original idea was It uses a heating hub to build a greenhouse, and now it seems that the scope of application of this thing should be wider!"

"Greenhouse? It is a good idea to use this to build a greenhouse! In this way, some cultivated land that has been covered by snow can be reused! The country is currently short of food. If it can restore the use of some cultivated land , That’s really great news!” This scientific researcher is obviously not the kind of person who only engages in scientific research and is indifferent to other things. Chen Xin mentioned the greenhouse, and he naturally associates it with cultivated land and food.

Chen Xin was also interested at this time, and wanted to have a good chat with professional researchers about this heating hub. Not only did the robotic arm project the design of the heating hub on the snow, but also Attached to the side are the drawings of the renovation and the energy tower, pointing to the three drawings and saying, "This is the completed heating hub. According to the design, there are two forms. One is such a heat dissipation mode, which can be expanded. There is also a heating field with a radius of 200 meters, which is this energy supply mode, which does not dissipate heat, but converts thermal energy into electrical energy and supplies it to nearby places in need.”

"Then this big one is a heating hub in enlarged mode?" The researchers glanced at the two modes of the heating hub ~IndoMTL.com~ and then focused on the blueprint of the energy tower.

"This is an energy tower. According to my design, it can mine deep geothermal resources below 3,000 meters and can be used in conjunction with a heating hub." Seeing that the researchers are interested in energy towers, Chen Xin is also excited Introduced: "Build an energy tower in an area, and then build a heating hub where it is needed, and connect it to the energy tower through pipes. The energy tower provides heat to the heating hub, so that you can build a heating hub. The heating network is up."

"Is this prepared for urban heating? It would be great if a geothermal heating network can be built in the city!" The researchers looked forward to this and changed their attitudes, and they are very optimistic about Chen Xin Of this project.

The civilian officials on the side were a little bit unable to speak. He only understood what Chen Xin was talking about with the researchers. Before turning the corner, they had already changed the subject. The civilian official was a little uncomfortable, so he took advantage of the pause between the two and interjected: "Since Mr. Chen, you have decided to stay in the city temporarily, then I will go back and reply to the higher-level department. But you are here to study this project and you need to send Is anyone here to help?"
