Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 826 Gasoline Engine and Diesel Engine (Fourth Update)

Outside a small factory in the capital, there are soldiers with muskets on their backs patrolling the periphery, and the words "No entry for idlers" are painted on the stone wall.Even the residents of the capital are not allowed to approach here, otherwise they will be driven away by the soldiers.Such places often hide the science and technology of the Kyushu Army.

"Master!" The soldiers standing guard outside saluted respectfully when they saw Chu Yun leading the people forward.

"You have worked hard." Chu Yun entered the factory with a few guards.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the factory had already started to operate again.In the factory, there are exquisite parts, workers in overalls, and engineers who have been staring at the design drawings and thinking hard.

"The military lord has arrived!" After the engineers and workers inside knew that Chu Yun had arrived, almost all the hard-working people stood up.

"Why are you here, military lord?" Daimler, the founder of Mercedes-Benz, appeared.

"I heard that your gasoline engine research and development has reached a critical juncture, and it will be released soon. Take me to have a look." Chu Yun invested a lot of money in Daimler, the goal is to produce a qualified engine !
"Yes, this engine has been improved several times, and it has changed from 400 rpm to 1000 rpm, and its reliability and mass production have been greatly improved. However, we are running out of gasoline reserves, and we need to replace Nanyang Oil from the Borneo refinery is distilled to obtain gasoline, with a conversion rate of around 20 percent.”

"If the engine can be successful, we may also need to build oil reserves. In the future, because of the production and use of gasoline engines, a large amount of gasoline will be needed. If we store a large amount of oil in advance, we will definitely be able to make a lot of money!" Daimler tried to explain to Chu Yun the importance of gasoline engines and oil resources.

Chu Yun from the future certainly knows the importance of the internal combustion engine and petroleum, which are the cornerstones of heavy industry in the second industrial revolution.

Chu Yun saw the old engine, which was much simpler than the modern car engine he saw before. In Chu Yun's opinion, it was not amazing, but at this time, it was already a high-precision technology that people at the time could not understand. , the full sense of metal, precision instruments, and pipelines made Chu Yun feel doubly cordial!The two industrial revolutions, the steam engine and the internal combustion engine, are more complicated than the other, and more and more people need to participate.

By the time of World War II, the general-purpose computer required the use of a large number of scientists in the United States to set up a special plan to invent it.

"When will the car be loaded?" Chu Yun couldn't wait to see the finished car.

"We are researching and improving the structure of the car. When the oil is in place, the chemical plant under the Academy of Sciences will extract the gasoline, and then we can conduct several experiments." Daimler said, "It will definitely be produced by the end of this year at the latest. A normal four-wheeled convertible."

"This kind of progress is still possible." Chu Yun thought for a while.

The cars that Daimler is talking about are not modern cars, but the earliest generation of cars. After that, it will take several generations of iterations before they can become the modern cars that Chu Yun knows.

"Mr. Jun, I think the compression ignition internal combustion engine using diesel is the future. The compression ignition internal combustion engine can use low-quality diesel, with higher thermal efficiency, which can reach about 26%, and longer life." Another summoned German scientist stood come out.

Chu Yun recognized the speaker as Diesel, the inventor of the diesel engine, who developed an engine that ignites by compressed air.In order to get the engine, Chu Yun activated all engine-related technologies that cost less civilization points, so the characters he summoned were varied.

It has to be said that Germany occupies an important position in the second industrial revolution. Daimler and Diesel are both German engineers, and one researches gasoline engines and the other researches diesel engines. They are both experts in this field.

"Gasoline engines and diesel engines are both important. How is your research on diesel engines going?" Chu Yun is also concerned about the research on diesel engines.

"I came relatively late, so the progress of research is relatively backward, but diesel engines can be used on merchant ships and ships in the future!" Diesel said confidently.

"Then cheer up, I am also very optimistic about diesel engines." Chu Yun gave Diesel a reassuring pill.

It doesn't matter whether it's a gasoline engine or a diesel engine, only children make choices, and Chu Yun chooses to have them all.A gasoline engine group, a diesel engine group, and two working groups competing at the same time can also promote research and development.

"Yes, I must develop the first practical diesel engine as soon as possible." Diesel said.

"I think the gasoline engine still has room for improvement. When you design the car according to the current plan, you should continue to improve the gasoline engine. And we need a more powerful engine." Chu Yun gestured, "Diesel, your team doesn't want Focus on the engine of the car, preferably one that can drive a truck with a load of several tons."

"Mr. Jun, I have seen the design drawing of the truck you provided. If we want to carry a few tons, our current engine may not be able to handle it. After the first practical diesel engine is developed, we need to continue to improve it." Diesel embarrassed Said.

As soon as Chu Yun arrived, he positioned his group's research on the engine of a large car, which put them under a lot of pressure.

"Relax, we are the only ones in this world who are doing research in this field, and it will be in the past few years at the latest. After we have a car, we can go to any place on the mainland." Chu Yun understood the two After the general progress of the working group, I feel a little relieved.

In his positioning, the gasoline engine group mainly develops engines for civilian vehicles, while the diesel engine group mainly develops military engines. Of course, the boundary between the two is not so clear. Gasoline engines can also be used to drive heavy trucks, tanks, and even after processing. It can also be used as an aero engine.The company founded by Daimler produced engines for tanks, propeller fighters, and trucks during World War II.

With the engine, there is a fleet that can be maneuvered and flexibly.At that time, a mechanized force can be organized to fight from the Ili area to the Mediterranean without using a large number of horses.

Moreover, the accumulation of engine technology can reduce the civilization points spent on developing propeller planes and gas engine ships in the future.

"This year, the gasoline engine for four-wheeled cars will be developed first, and the diesel engine for trucks will be produced next year. If it is developed on schedule, the year-end bonus for that year will be doubled, otherwise it will be cut in half." Chu Yun gave an order.
