Doomsday Bunker Upgrade Chapter 380: Tunneling

The construction of the second heating hub went very smoothly, but even if it was completed, the heating hub would not be put into use immediately like the first heating hub.

Limited by the backwater well below it is used to inject water into the ground, so this heating hub cannot directly extract the heat energy from the ground, but can only rely on the first one from the railway station delivered by the pipeline. Only the hot water drawn by the heating hub can play the role of the heating hub.

As for whether the hot water drawn from the first heating hub can be supplied to the second heating hub after its own evaporative heat dissipation and pipeline transportation, it depends on the source of the first heating hub. The total amount of thermal energy carried by the groundwater pumped by the heating hub.

"As long as the hot water drawn by the first heating hub can provide enough heat, there is absolutely no problem in supplying the two heating hubs." Facing the question asked by Wang Hai, Chen Xin planned While looking at the pipeline construction line, he explained to him: "In addition, each heating hub is equipped with an isotope thermoelectric battery, and the output power of the battery is sufficient to maintain the operation of the heating hub, and it can be turned on when necessary. Electric heating mode."

After listening to Chen Xin's explanation, Wang Hai seemed to understand, but he was just a soldier.

Chen Xin naturally knew that Wang Hai was half-understood about this kind of thing, but he just explained it casually and adjusted his mood after work.

Otherwise, it would be very tiring to work so hard all the time.

"In that case, the heating hubs built in the future will all be built in pairs like this?" Wang Hai looked at the standard points on the map in front of Chen Xin, and after a little analysis, he judged that these points should be the follow-up. Where a heating hub will be built.

"Not necessarily, I may take a more effective way in the future." Chen Xin shook his head, opened the projection on the power armor, and projected the drawings of the heating hub and energy tower.

However, what Chen Xin projected this time was not a plan, but a three-dimensional image.

"This is the energy tower I plan to build to mine deep geothermal energy. It will mine geothermal resources from a depth of more than three kilometers underground, deliver a large amount of thermal energy to the surface, and then pipe it to various heating hubs , and then re-injected into the ground through the pipeline under the heating hub." Chen Xin explained while controlling the projection to demonstrate, allowing Wang Hai to intuitively understand what kind of system this is and how it works: " This is the heating network I designed. Now these two heating hubs are just a test unit to verify whether my idea is feasible. After the related problems of this technology have been verified, the real heating network will be Construction will begin."

Wang Hai raised his eyebrows when he saw the projection demonstration in front of him. Although he didn't understand it well, he probably knew that the benefits of such a heating network made him quite uncertain. Feeling Lie.

But Chen Xin told Wang Hai these things, not just showing him.

Limited by the troubles and annoyances caused by pipeline construction, Chen Xin said this to Wang Hai, but he just wanted to explain these things to Wang Hai, and let him start his own thinking. Brainstorm if there is a way to do the job of laying pipes in a short amount of time without using a lot of hands.

Of course, part of the reason for this is because Chen Xin himself is a person with a strong desire to express himself. With a performative personality, he likes to show his ideas and ideas to others like this, which makes him very A sense of accomplishment.

This is like saying that when a performer performs on stage, he always needs the audience to appreciate it. As a novelist, even if he is only an online novelist, Chen Xin hopes that more people will read and appreciate him. s work.

Even now that he doesn't write books, he wants to be praised by others for what he creates.

However, in addition to showing off, Chen Xin is really thinking about how to solve the problem of laying the pipeline.

Now it's only a few kilometers away, and digging by investing a lot of manpower is a solution to the problem, but it's also a stupid solution.

If possible, Chen Xin hopes to have a more efficient and smarter way to solve the problem.

After all, if you want to build a heating network in a real sense, the laying of pipelines will inevitably become one of the difficulties in the construction process.

Rather than saving the trouble for later, think about how to solve it once and for all.

The optimal solution to this problem is, of course, using a shield machine~IndoMTL.com~ Although the use of a shield machine has many problems such as high cost and inapplicability in snow, the shield machine is not suitable for tunneling. It is indeed the best solution to the problem.

As for the problems of the shield machine, it is very easy for Chen Xin to solve it, and it is good to use the system for targeted upgrades.

As long as there is a system, Chen Xin has the confidence to rebuild a suitable shield machine.

Chen Xinzheng thought this, but suddenly realized that since he can upgrade the existing shield machine, why not just design a shield machine that can be used here?

The real shield machine is used to build tunnels. Not to mention its huge size, because it has to face complex landforms such as rock formations, it also has extraordinary requirements for materials, and naturally the cost is very expensive. .

But what Chen Xin uses here is different. First of all, what Chen Xin needs to face is not hard rock layers and complex soil layers, but only homogeneous and soft snow. In terms of material, even if Chen Xin needs to face A shield machine made of new wood can also dig through snow.

And Chen Xin doesn't need to dig the hole as big as it needs to be able to lay the pipeline in it. Even considering the construction problems of laying the pipeline, it's just a big one that can stand for two people to work in it. The diameter will do.

Even Chen Xin doesn't need to dig how strong the tunnel is, as long as it can support the construction of the pipeline, even if it collapses afterwards, it doesn't matter to Chen Xin.

And digging such a tunnel naturally requires less excavation tools.

In short, Chen Xin doesn't need to build a real shield machine, all he needs is a tunnel boring tool, which is actually not difficult to build.
