The students from the Jiuzhou Institute of Physics were extremely enthusiastic and took out the funds. However, in the afternoon, they received a lot of money from Liu Jinghong and others. The first steam engine produced by Kyushu Institute of Physics came out.
On a flatbed truck, Liu Jinghong led the team, and a crowd of people cheered and pushed the flatbed truck back to Fuxing University from Quancheng County.
There were several large wooden boxes loaded on the flatbed truck, which were extremely heavy. According to their understanding of steam engines, the greater the internal energy of the air, the greater the reaction of the steam engine. To increase the energy in the air, the prerequisite is that it can hold enough water. The prerequisite is that the container is large enough, the volume is large enough, and the pressure is high enough.
So, big.
"I'll push, let me push."
"No, no, it's my turn to push. You've been pushing for so long, let me push a little longer."
"You have thin arms and legs, and you are tired. Quick, let me push you."
"No, I'll do it."
“…”
A group of students scrambled to push the trolley.
The flatbed truck contained the first scientific achievement of the Kyushu Institute of Physics, which was also the seed for Kyushu to enter the steam age. Everyone wants to remember this historic moment, and everyone wants to be part of this eternal glory.
Liu Jinghong was sweating profusely, dragging the flatbed truck with his bare arms. Those large boxes, plus the boiler, weighed three to four hundred kilograms. But he was not tired or afraid of being tired. Instead, he felt that he had spent too little time pushing.
"Senior Liu, let me push the car."
Liu Jinghong shook his head: "You are juniors, the hard work should be done by me as the older brother. Okay, no need to say more, you can just follow me."
Enter Fuxing University. Liu Jinghong couldn't help but hold his head high, even though he was dragging hundreds of kilograms of weight, his legs were weak from the exhaustion of a man with no strength. At this time, he also straightened his back and looked away.
The students from Kyushu Institute of Physics who were following the cart all stopped laughing and joking, walked neatly on both sides of the cart, and walked in without squinting.
As soon as I entered Fuxing University, the whole university immediately became excited.
"They made it!"
"They built a steam engine!"
"The models have all been built and shipped back."
"Did it really happen?"
"Quick, quick, go and see. They really did it."
“…”
The whole school was shocked.
This is simply a historic moment.
All the teachers and students in the school rushed to tell each other and immediately surrounded them, blocking the road leading to the auditorium.
On the teaching floor and on the balcony, there were people crawling everywhere, and everyone was looking down.
They just pushed the flatbed truck and kept walking through the blocked road that was besieged by people. They kept saying: "Borrowed it, borrowed it."
Everyone gave way and stood on both sides of the road, paying attention to this group of proud people.
"The box contains the steam engine, right?"
"Why is it so big?"
"They actually actually researched it."
"It's great for me, Fuxing University. It's great for me, a young man from Kyushu."
“…”
Li Zhen also got the news and woke up everyone who was sleeping in the laboratory: "Hurry up, they are done."
"ah!"
"So fast!"
"Quick, quick."
“…”
The crowd woke up quickly and ran out disheveled. Everyone's eyes were filled with excitement, a kind of fanaticism.
They faced science with enthusiasm, and science rewarded them with results.
I don’t seek fame or fortune, I just want to pursue the reason for the existence of this world...
As soon as I left the auditorium, I saw the dense crowd outside and Liu Jinghong who directed everyone to move the boxes down.
"Master Li!"
Li Zhen walked over quickly: "Is it done?"
"It's done."
"Quickly, assemble it and let's conduct operational tests immediately."
Liu Jinghong laughed loudly: "The principles are all consistent, it will definitely work."
Xu Shenxue led a group of school leaders over. Looking at the large boxes, many people were filled with emotion.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
"That's great, haha."
They can only say the word "good", they can't say any other words. It is impossible to describe the joy of success for scientific workers, which is a kind of joy that is different from any other joy, ecstasy!
Liu Jinghong opened a box: "Master Li, this is the crank connecting rod. I found a classmate who studied mathematics to make special calculations of the dimensions, and then found the most professional master craftsman to make it."
Li Zhen picked up the crank connecting rod that imitated the movement of the arm and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."
"Master Li, this is the water tank. This is the cylinder."
"Master Li, this is the piston. There is a buckle on the piston that can perfectly lock the crank connecting rod."
"Master Li, this large disc is made of pure steel and is of excellent quality. The diameter of the circle is half a meter and the weight is twenty kilograms. Its inertia is enough to drive the piston to reset. And the pressure of the internal energy of the air is also enough to push it Give it a spin. Everything is just right.”
Li Zhen looked at the jet-black disk and saw that there was a neat groove on the edge of the disk. He was pleasantly surprised that they finally learned to draw inferences from one example. There is actually a slot left for the transmission belt on this disc. They were able to imagine that the rotation of the disk should be turned into rotational power, and the transmission belt should be used to drive the wheels.
Li Zhen was very pleased.
"Hurry up and install it."
Liu Jinghong shouted: "Come on, I'll install it, I'll install it myself."
Some students gathered around here volunteered: "I'm here to help you, this is too heavy..."
Before he finished speaking, everyone at Kyushu Institute of Physics shouted in unison: "No need!"
This is the result of the Kyushu Institute of Physics. They do not allow anyone to interfere with this glorious moment...
After a while, Liu Jinghong and others assembled the steam engine together. It's about seventy centimeters high, not too big, but it can still be considered a giant steel behemoth.
The students looked at this perfect mechanical form, and everyone became excited. Without him, just seeing this steel structure is enough to make people excited.
Xu Shenxue murmured with misty eyes: "It's so beautiful."
"Yeah, how wonderful."
"This is the most beautiful machine in the world."
"The beauty of machinery, the beauty of pure machinery, the beauty of steam."
“Hopefully it will be there one day when the world’s craft matures.”
“…”
"ignition!"
Liu Jinghong couldn't wait to shout.
Li Zhen laughed and scolded: "You're stupid. No water has been added, and there is no core of steam."
Liu Jinghong slapped his forehead: "Ah, yes, yes, hurry up, water, water. We need fifteen liters of water. And coal."
"The water is coming!"
A large group of students rushed over carrying buckets of water. The water brought from a long distance is quite heavy, but it travels very quickly.
"add water!"
Opening the spiral water inlet, fifteen liters of water poured in.
"ignition!"
A piece of firewood was thrown into the pile of coals under the boiler, and a raging fire started...
At this moment, everyone held their breath.
