Chapter 2060 At Least Safe

...

In Liu Tong's opinion, solving the sealing problem of the airship and ensuring that gas does not leak out is not difficult at all in this era.

The terrifying strength brought about terrifying physical fitness, and naturally also led to the emergence of some outstanding talents in all walks of life.

In this era, some people can actually make high-tech products with their bare hands, which can only be accomplished in the mechanized era, but it just takes a lot of time and costs a lot.

After comparing the cost and time and estimating the technical difficulty, it is not difficult to master the relevant technologies of airships with complete basic industrial system knowledge and chat groups as backup.

However, it will take a lot of time to advance the development of related aspects.

After all, the gases used by airships are mainly helium and hydrogen. For safety reasons, helium should be used as much as possible.

As for the gas separation technology in this area, although it is somewhat difficult, it can be done. However, helium itself is a rare gas, and it will naturally take a lot of time to make it for an entire airship.

I thought about the amount of cargo a normal airship could carry, compared to the speed of flying objects in this era, and the terrifying capabilities of birds in this era.

If an airship really collides with a bird, it will probably make a hole in the airship, causing a lot of damage.

Thinking that this kind of thing was not very practical and there was no need to waste a lot of his time and energy, Liu Tong naturally did not take any action personally to speed up the process in this regard.

However, in this regard, the airships that fly in reality are even more outrageous.

On the one hand, the weight of the airship structure needs to be reduced, while on the other hand, its sturdiness needs to be ensured so that it will not be easily damaged, and a large enough load capacity must be reserved.

It can be said that a series of self-designed parameter indicators once forced the personnel in the R&D field into a corner.

In a sense, the research and development and ideas of hot air balloons can only provide a reference.

However, reality is so unreasonable that several existing problems have been solved in this world with very reasonable means.

The weight of the airship itself is greatly reduced due to the construction of a large number of hollow structural parts.

The support provided by the hollow structural parts, combined with the corresponding outer skin, is sufficient under normal circumstances to support a huge body and ensure that the internal gas does not leak out.

However, an airship filled with air naturally has no way to float. After all, the mass of the air itself is the same as the air around it, and the weight of the airship itself is much higher than that of the air, so it is naturally impossible to float.

Generally speaking, when the experiment reaches this stage, you should know that it has failed.

However, this world is somewhat different after all.

Since there is more air inside, wouldn't it be better to reduce the air?
Adhering to the reverse principle of adding water if there is too much flour, and adding flour if there is too much water, the principle is not clear, but the results can be clearly seen.

The researchers in Fenggao City immediately found a master and used sophisticated internal air control methods to directly exhaust the air inside the airship. The external atmospheric pressure was extremely high for the airship, which was close to a semi-vacuum.

Although it can float in theory, before it floats up, the airship's own structure is squeezed by the entire atmospheric environment and collapses on the spot.

Instead of feeling sad or disappointed about this failure, the experimenters were very excited.

The fact that the airship can be squeezed by the atmosphere means that it can indeed float. This is the experience they gained from hot air balloons.

In other words, as long as the airship can withstand the compression of the atmosphere without deforming, collapsing and shrinking inward, there will be no problem at all.

With this idea in mind, researchers also applied for relevant funds and directly carried out cloud temperature conditioning and strengthening on the structure of the airship, trying to ensure that it would have the structure and strength to withstand atmospheric pressure even when the interior was in a vacuum.

Then the experiment was successful, so the airship that handled this aspect also successfully floated up, and its carrying capacity directly refreshed Liu Tong's cognition.

In order to further enhance the effect of the airship's spiritual energy strengthening, the experimental researchers even found Huang Yueying and sought relevant spiritual energy etching strengthening to further ensure the solidity of its appearance.

On this basis, the experimenters further improved the air pumping and exhaust systems inside the airship, using the air pumping and exhaust to achieve the ascent and descent of the airship.

And thanks to the zero-load interior that is close to a vacuum, there is no need to say much about the airship's load capacity.

Si Niang, who is very curious about all kinds of new and novel things in the world, relies on her strong enough abilities and her own identity, and with occasional help, she is very familiar with the parameters of the airship.

So we know that the load capacity of an airship, as well as the elegance and stability it displays during flight, are much higher than those of a horse-drawn carriage.

Although the flight of an airship will be affected by air currents, the possessors of spiritual talents in this world have the ability to sort out their surroundings. So what is a mere air current worth?
Once the airflow is controlled, the stability will naturally increase significantly. Not only is the area vast and comfortable, the scenery is also excellent, and most importantly, the flying speed is also very fast.

So compared with the transportation by carriage and airship, apart from the higher cost and practical requirements, this special version of the airship has no problems in Si Niang's opinion.

However, in response to Si Niang's words, Liu Tong looked up at the airship in the sky, looking at the huge object that was over a hundred meters long, and couldn't help but shook his head.

If it is filled with helium and has gas filling, she can still give it a try. After all, even if it explodes, the people around her can protect her safety.

But it is a semi-vacuum inside now, and the air inside is sucked out purely by brute force, so that the weight inside is far less than the weight of air, and the risk factor is completely different.

If there is a hole in this thing, the atmospheric pressure will instantly teach it how to behave.

So compared to the safe carriage, the airship, which seemed sturdy, flew at an extremely fast speed and was extremely stable, was something that Liu Tong should not try unless necessary.

Even though this huge airship took the relevant craftsmen two years to manufacture the relevant parts and then assemble them, and it has been running for almost half a year without any other accidents, Liu Tong is still skeptical about it.

The carriage is slower and may even take a detour, but at least it's safe, isn't it? (End of this chapter)
