Beneath Deep Space

Chapter 51 Ice cube cooling

"Huh? Ice?"

"Ivanov, you are so smart!"

After hearing this plan, the people below seemed to have an epiphany. They started talking one after another and lamented that they were stuck in a fixed mindset.

Thermal radiation and insulated bottles are what these highly intelligent people are most likely to think of, and they are also the easiest to fall into a fixed mindset. Using ice to cool down is unexpected.

This kind of simple and effective thing is what the wild wolves admire the most. Like the original nuclear bomb promotion plan, it was simple and effective, with little technical content, but it achieved great things. It was what the wild wolves admired most.

Professor Ding Yidong also reacted and couldn't help but sigh, this is really a simple and crude method...

It stands to reason that if you use an ice bank to freeze water into ice and then use it to dissipate heat, it will definitely not work. Because the mechanism of ice storage is similar to that of air conditioner. However, the ice on the spacecraft was dug from the moon and can be used ready-made!

Ding Yidong knows that using ice to cool down is a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution, but it is also a good solution. It can solve an urgent need and does not require much work. Why not do it?

These ices can absorb a large amount of heat and have a strong cooling effect. Besides, if all the ice melts, then the spacecraft must have reached Mars, and just dig some more...

Thinking of digging ice, Ding Yidong had a flash of inspiration, and he finally thought of a truly practical large-scale project and plan! Staying with these young people, he felt like he was back to his youthful self, high-spirited.

As for the real solution to the root cause, leave it to the Tesla Research Institute, and our Wild Wolf Design Bureau will not join in the fun, hahaha!

Thinking of this, Professor Ding Yidong couldn't help laughing wildly and waved his hand, "Comrades, this is the plan!"

While Teslas were still studying it carefully and worrying about various difficulties, the wolves had already submitted their research plan. After Ding Yidong drafted the manuscript, he sent the plan directly to Yu Yifeng's work email.

Yu Yifeng was sitting in the office, completely shocked. How could he come up with the plan in two hours? Could it be that Yelang Design Bureau had noticed this problem a long time ago?

It deserves to be the number one research institute... Yu Yifeng was still a little emotional.

When he clicked on the plan, his temples jumped. How could this be a plan? He just wrote a few words and paired it with a few pictures.

Yu Yifeng was certainly not the kind of impatient person. He suppressed his curiosity and looked down.

Use ice to cool down, seconds, wonderful! At the end, he couldn't help but want to clap his hands and cheer.

The Wild Wolf Design Bureau's plan mainly makes use of the Noah's icehouse, which is actually the water storage point of the Noah. It is shaped a bit like a large pond and is filled with ice cubes.

The ice dug out from the moon has a temperature of more than 100 degrees below zero, and it has not melted much yet. If people want to use water, they have to take out some ice cubes and heat them to melt them before they can get water.

Heating alone consumes a lot of energy from the spacecraft.

The Wild Wolf Design Bureau's plan is really ingenious. It installs a blower above the icehouse to pump out the cold air and then pumps the hot air back out. In this way, the temperature of the spacecraft can be effectively controlled.

Such a simple solution only requires a few hair dryers and a few leather tubes. Of course, it only requires a few words and a few pictures.

It’s such a simple plan, but it kills two birds with one stone! On the one hand, it lowers the temperature inside the spacecraft, and on the other hand, it melts the ice. It’s really clever...

The pursuit of simplicity in engineering design does not mean that the more complex the better, but rather that "appropriate and clear" should be pursued. Using the simplest solution to solve complex problems is strength. You have thought of things that others have not thought of, and this is your skill.

Yu Yifeng knew in his heart that this plan was a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution, but he couldn't refuse it because it was really simple and effective... This amount of work could be completed in less than half a day.

What if we run out of ice? Let’s dig on Mars. Has the ice on Mars run out? Then wait for the Tesla Research Institute’s plan! At the end of the plan, there is Professor Ding Yidong’s unique ridicule.

Yu Yifeng smiled and shook his head. If the Teslas saw Wild Wolf's plan, they would probably vomit blood...

Of course, he is not saying that Tesla Research Institute is inferior to Wild Wolf. He can only say that the ideas of the two research institutes are completely different. Wild Wolf, heroic, Tesla, refined.

He casually sent the plan to Dr. Felix.

Inside the Tesla Research Institute, many top students were discussing with great interest. After two hours of discussion, the specific direction has been found, but there are still a lot of details to be perfected.

Simply put, scientists hope to develop a new type of radiant heat rod using graphene. This radiant heat rod radiates stronger and faster, more than twice as much as the original. Then, liquid nitrogen is used to enhance the effect of thermal cycling.

The whole solution is not very complicated, but it is not simple either. It requires a lot of experiments and some testing before it can be decided.

"Well, that's it for today's meeting. I hope everyone can get the experimental results out as soon as possible." Dr. Felix breathed a sigh of relief. The final result is of course that the faster the better, otherwise, the temperature inside the spacecraft may rise a few degrees, and it will be really too hot by then.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated several times. When he opened it, he saw an email from Yu Yifeng.

"What? The Wild Wolf Design Bureau's plan is out?"

Felix was a little shocked and a little curious. He felt that the efficiency of their research institute was already very high. Unexpectedly, their plans had already been released, and even the manuscript had been written? !

He clicked it casually, looking at the simple and feasible plan with just a few words, his expression changed several times.

"Everyone, wait a minute, this is the plan of the Wild Wolf Design Bureau!"

The researchers who originally wanted to leave turned back after hearing this.

They looked at the screen curiously, and then, when they saw the simple and quick solution, they felt like they were mentally shattered. Wonderful, why didn't they think of it?

What’s the use of discussing so much? They felt immediately outcompeted.

There is such a joke:

A farmer who graduated from primary school accidentally joined a QQ group of a group of Ph.D.s and saw that the group of Ph.D.s were discussing this question: What would be the effect of a drop of water falling from a height of 10,000 meters?

Then the doctors started talking in the group, about kinetic energy formulas, universal gravitation formulas, air resistance formulas, a lot of mess. However, after several hours, the doctors still did not get the final result. Some said it would kill people, while others said it could break through steel plates.

As a result, the farmer said in confusion, haven't you been wet in the rain? Then, he was taken out of the group...

Of course, the joke is about nerds. Teslas felt like nerds. They had studied a lot but still couldn't find a single word that worked for them, and they all felt that they lacked confidence.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" It was Dr. Felix who took the lead in applauding, "Simple and efficient plan, thank you Wild Wolf for teaching us this lesson!"

Regardless of whether they were convinced or not, everyone applauded. At least they were stuck in their thinking and really didn't think of using the icehouse to cool down.

"However!" Dr. Felix continued: "We haven't lost yet! Their plan is only a temporary one, and ours is long-term effective!"

Yes, we haven’t lost yet! Their solution will not work once the ice is used up, but our solution can last for a hundred or a thousand years!

Teslas have some confidence again, and they are ready to work hard and work overtime on the entire plan to rush it out.

This is a fight for honor. These young and energetic scientists really feel this, but they are willing to forget about money and rest time at this moment...
