A few hours after Chen Xin arrived at the refuge of the municipal police station, people from the scientific research institution finally received the news and rushed to him.
Before meeting Chen Xin, these researchers were still wondering how Chen Xin arrived in the urban area through the snowstorm, but after seeing the power armor that Chen Xin parked in the SWAT team, all their questions were thrown away. When he reached the sky, he turned into an incomparable enthusiasm surrounding the power armor, and he wished to take it apart immediately.
Fortunately, Chen Xin stopped them.
"Just look at it, and there will be drawings and prototypes for you later. This is my own private goods, so I won't give you research."
When Chen Xin was working on the exoskeleton protective suit for the power armor, he wanted to deliver these things to the country for mass production. Naturally, these researchers would not reject the research on power armor.
However, he will have to rely on this power armor to return to his refuge. In addition, he intends to keep this power armor for himself, so he does not want to hand it over to scientific researchers for disassembly.
Although the researchers felt sorry for this, they could still understand Chen Xin's choice. After skipping the power armor, the researchers were also concerned about why Chen Xin suddenly ventured through the blizzard and came to the urban area under such severe weather.
"The situation in the urban area is so bad now. I want to see what I can help." Chen Xin explained to the researchers in this way, and at the same time explained what he was doing: "I now plan to The ground-source heat pumps and coal-fired boilers of the police station’s shelter heating system have been upgraded. I have some ideas about the problems caused by this blizzard and I need to discuss it with you."
Hearing what Chen Xin said, the researchers put away their research on the power armor, and their expressions became serious.
Because it has lost the ability to weather forecasts, this sudden blizzard was a sudden accident for everyone. It caught everyone by surprise, and everyone was not prepared for it.
Although the city government has made preplans for sudden disasters or emergencies, but due to current conditions, the preplans they can make do not have plans to deal with snowstorms that last more than a week and the temperature reaches minus 70 degrees. .
This has also led to the current heating problem becoming the most severe test for all refuges and survivors, and everyone is happy to survive. If you can't survive, the refuge can be used as a cemetery.
In fact, this blizzard is not only in the city. According to the contacts made by scientific researchers through internal routes and higher-level institutions, the blizzard came from Siberia and affected most of the central and eastern parts of the country along the way. In some areas.
If there is a satellite cloud picture, you will see that almost half of the entire Yan Nation is now shrouded in a raging snowstorm.
It can be said that the blizzard threatened not only this city, but also pushed most of Yan Nation to a very dangerous line of life and death.
Under such circumstances, any method that can improve the current situation is good, as long as the method is effective, it is equivalent to saving most of the people in Yan Country.
"Then Mr. Chen Xin, what do you plan to do? In this case, the heating problem is not easy to solve!" The researchers also don't have any good methods for this, and I really want to know what Chen Xin thinks.
At present, the heating methods of various shelters mainly rely on coal or oil, gas boilers, and electric heating.
Oil and gas boilers are mainly the original boilers before the disaster. However, considering the current tight supply of oil and natural gas, the use of these oil and gas boilers is very problematic.
Although coal-fired boilers are no better than oil-fired and gas-fired boilers in terms of efficiency and environmental protection, coal-fired supply is relatively simple and cost-effective, and it is currently the most common heating method.
As for electric heating, it mainly exists in small refuges and private refuges. After all, such small-scale refuges, even the smallest boilers, are wasteful and unnecessary under normal circumstances.
After all, if small refuges and private refuges burn boilers, all the heat output from the boilers cannot be used effectively, and it will be wasted to a large extent.
Even in this situation, the boiler is still a waste for a small refuge, and it does not have a good heating effect.
Not to mention the large-scale refuges, the boilers are almost overloaded and the temperature cannot be raised above zero.
Some people may talk about the polar scientific research station, but the problem is that although the polar scientific research station also uses these methods for heating, the cold and warm measures at the polar scientific research station are not comparable to these refuges.
The space is much larger than the few houses in the polar scientific research station, and the unavoidable heat loss due to the need for air circulation has caused the temperature to be unable to rise.
To solve this problem, in addition to avoiding heat loss, the easiest way is to provide more heat, but this has gone back to the original point. The boiler must be improved or a new heating method must be introduced.
In fact, scientific researchers have been working hard in this area, but they really can't think of a better way.
It is actually not difficult to modify boilers or electric heating. But the problem is that conventional methods need to shut down the boilers and then disassemble them for renovation. Not to mention the cost of renovation, just stopping the renovation period of the boiler is enough. Everyone in the refuge is frozen into an old popsicle ~EbookFREE.me~ that will not resurrect.
And Chen Xin said that he had an idea, which naturally made the researchers overjoyed. They have great expectations for Chen Xin, who has been creating miracles in their eyes.
"The main problem of heating is insufficient heat. I can improve the combustion efficiency and heat efficiency without stopping the boiler. However, this improvement is also limited, so a new heating method is still needed." Chen Xin sorted out his own After thinking about it, he said: "Electric heating is a good supplement. The main problem is that some shelters do not have electric heating equipment, and on the other hand, it is the output of electricity. After all, power plants also use coal. The electricity generated is actually heat energy, and another conversion is not as good as burning coal for heating.
So I plan to modify the isotope thermoelectric battery I made before, and try to make an isotope generator. After installing one in the refuge, connect it to the circuit of the refuge, so that there will be sufficient electricity. Electric heating is used to make up for the lack of heating. "
Hearing what Chen Xin said, apart from being shocked, the researchers really didn't know what expression they should show.
Isotope generators, something only found in science fiction, are beyond their imagination.
