Chapter 267 Ye Xuan’S Popular Science: This Is A Steam Water Pump, Barely A Steam Engine



Chapter 267 Ye Xuan’S Popular Science: This Is A Steam Water Pump, Barely A Steam Engine

Chapter 267 Ye Xuan’s Popular Science: This is a steam water pump, barely a steam engine

God made the situation.

Soldiers wearing armor and swords surrounded the Divine Construction Bureau, and the craftsmen were kneeling on the ground.

There was a huge machine in front of them.

Huge round copper furnace.

Red coals burned underneath.

White steam spurted out from above.

It makes a whining sound.

Along with the movement of the cylinder piston, the linkage device is driven, and the bucket is lifted.

Zhu Yuanzhang wore a Yishan crown and a bright yellow dragon robe with a round collar and narrow sleeves. The dragon's prestige on it was so domineering. The majesty of the emperor made these lowly craftsmen dare not raise their heads.

Ye Xuan's words made him a little confused at the moment.

Barely a steam engine?

Yes it is.

If it’s not, it’s not.

Why is it still barely considered?

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the steam engine with a strange expression, which was whining, constantly emitting thick steam and white mist, and emitting a large amount of heat, and then looked at Ye Xuan, who was wearing a white robe and had a calm expression.

"My dear, how do you say this?"

"Barely considered a 'steam engine'?"

"Is this machine a steam engine?"

The craftsmen who were kneeling on the ground and prostrated themselves also raised their eyes to secretly look at Ye Xuan, their faces full of doubts.

Isn't this a "steam engine"?

That's not right.

They were made based on Ye Xuan's schematics.

There are some differences though.

But this machine also works.

The craftsmen were uneasy.

He swallowed secretly.

Waiting for Ye Xuan's answer.

The running "steam engine" emitted a lot of heat, making them feel extremely hot.

Plus nervousness.

They were sweating profusely.

In just a short time, their clothes were soaked with sweat, as if they were fished out of water.

They were like prisoners about to be executed by the guillotine, eagerly waiting for Ye Xuan to execute them.

"How should I put it? This machine invented by the craftsmen can be called a steam water lifter."

"Can be used to pump water from mines."

"But this machine has a lot of flaws."

"The heat loss is huge."

"low efficiency."

"It relies on atmospheric pressure to draw water."

"There are significant limitations."

"Although this steam water lifter is somewhat effective, it cannot be compared with a real steam engine."

Ye Xuan explained.

Historically, in 1698, more than three hundred years ago, engineer Mas Severi invented the steam water pump.

The steam water lifter is also known as the Seville steam engine.

Its appearance truly turned the steam engine into industrial power for the first time.

What the craftsmen have built so far is a steam water lifter like Seville's.

The fact that craftsmen were able to come up with the steam water lifter more than three hundred years in advance is already extremely impressive.

Now this steam water lifter can be improved.

Separate condenser.

Lubricate the piston with oil.

A thermal insulation layer is installed outside the cylinder.

Planetary gear.

Parallel motion linkage.

Centrifugal speed regulator.

throttle valve.

Pressure gauge, etc.

This can improve the efficiency of the steam engine.

In short, in Ye Xuan's eyes, the current steam water pump still has many flaws, and many improvements must be made to make the heat loss lower and the efficiency higher.

Disappointment flashed across Zhu Yuanzhang's face.

He thought the steam engine had been developed.

Unexpectedly, I just got a steam water lifter.

This was such a disappointment to him.

A steam engine cannot be developed in one day.

It is difficult to initiate industrial change.

The Ming Dynasty's industry developed rapidly.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced coldly at the guy who tipped him off that he had developed a steam engine.

With irritation.

Is this the steam engine you're talking about?

This is not a steam engine at all.

At most it’s just a steam water lifter!

The person who tipped off the news was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground, lost most of his three souls and seven souls, and was filled with confusion in his heart.

I thought: Will I be tricked by Zhu Yuanzhang?

He regretted it endlessly.

If I had known, he would wait until Ye Xuan confirmed it before reporting it to the emperor.

Now this machine is not considered a steam engine.

Just a steam water lifter.

Will the emperor feel that he is teasing him?

At this time, he felt that if he could survive this time, he would at least have to wait until Ye Xuan confirmed the results next time or in the next life before reporting it to Zhu Yuanzhang.

The craftsmen did not expect that what they developed was just a steam engine.

They were very disappointed.

Although most of them followed Ye Xuan's schematics to make steam engines.

But some technologies are too advanced.

They couldn't get it out at all.

It can only be replaced with something else.

This resulted in the steam engine they built being just a steam water lifter.

Seeing them so depressed, Ye Xuan comforted and encouraged Zhi:

"You have developed a steam water lifter."

"This is pretty good."

"I thought it would be difficult to develop this, but you still did it."

"You guys are amazing."

"Moreover, the steam-stripping machine has been manufactured.

"I believe a real steam engine is not far away."

"You only need to modify the steam water lifter to make a steam engine.

"You should believe in yourselves more."

"You have already overcome the hardest first step."

“Then it’s just about improving.”

"Can't you all do it?"

"Moreover, the steam water lifter you developed can also play a role. The water extraction during mining can be used in the previous steam water lifter. This steam water lifter can be put to practical use."

The disappointment in the craftsmen disappeared, and their faces showed a bright light.

yes.

Steam water lift is so difficult.

Get them all out.

Nowadays, the steam engine is only an improvement of the steam water lifter. Can't they still make it?

No!

They can definitely figure it out!

The craftsmen seemed to have taken a shot.

The crowd was excited.

Ye Xuan's words of encouragement restored their hope.

What they make is not useless.

And they can definitely build a steam engine!

Ye Xuan actually admires the hard work and hard work of these craftsmen.

under such harsh conditions.

They can also come up with a steam water lifter.

It's really incredible.

The steam water lifter was developed more than 300 years earlier than the West.

And it’s still practical.

This group of craftsmen is already amazing.

It can be practical!

Zhu Yuanzhang grasped the key point.

Most of his disappointment was gone.

No matter what the Divine Creation Bureau invented.

As long as the things you create are practical!

Steam water lifter can draw water during mining.

What a good thing!

Although I haven't developed a real steam engine, the steam water lifter is not bad either.

Ye Xuan's words directly cheered up Zhu Yuanzhang, and the craftsmen were all excited as if they had been given a shot of blood.

The craftsmen said excitedly:

"."Sir, we will definitely continue to modify the steam engine!"

"Then develop a real steam engine!!"

"We will definitely work day and night to develop a real steam engine!"

A+$7:......

These people are indeed social animals.

I still like 007’s social beast.

From the corner of Ye Xuan's eyes, Yu Guang saw Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, and Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard with relief.

Q+$7:......+.

This week Bapi saw this kind of social animal who volunteered as 007.

You must be very happy, right?

Well, he is not asked to be a 007 social beast anyway, and these craftsmen are so happy being 007 social beasts, so just let them do it.

Craftsmen continued to work overtime to develop a real steam engine.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Ye Xuan to leave the Shenzao Bureau with him.
