Release that Witch - Chapter 553

[Chapter 544 A New Power Source]

Longing for the new world… Roland laughed dumbly.

??

Then he asked Nightingale to recruit Anna.

At this time, the former will always automatically avoid and give the two of them a space to be alone.

Anna is wearing a light blue short dress today. Under the skirt, she can see knee-high black stockings. With a pair of moccasin boots, she looks full of vitality.

These modern-style clothes were made by Roland instructing the tailor in his spare time, and the fabric was the flowing water coating provided by Soraya. Not to mention light to wear, it was also very durable, which was very suitable for her to use when processing utensils.

Roland couldn’t help but smile when he saw her watery eyes.

Of course, now he doesn’t need to be as honest as before.

Pulling Anna onto his lap and sitting down, smelling her fragrance from behind, Roland made some intimacy before getting to the point, “I want to develop a new source of power.”

“Like a steam engine?” She turned her head, and along her fair neck, she could see her protruding collarbone.

Roland couldn’t help reaching out and touching it, causing the latter to let out a low laugh.

“Your Majesty, let’s talk business.”

“Ahem, alright,” he put down Anna, and took out a stack of design drawings from the manuscript beside the table, “Look at this first…how much can you understand?”

“Hmm…” As soon as she entered the learning state, Anna’s expression would be completely immersed. Just looking at her ecstasy, Roland would feel an inexplicable shame—as if he was sitting in a window with a bright window. In the classroom, peeking at the deskmate next to him who is writing like a master.

In order to balance this state of mind, he decided that Anna must beg for mercy at night.

“I probably understand,” Anna flipped through the last drawing, nodded after thinking for a moment, “It is also driven by steam, but the pushing piston is replaced with a windmill blade, which saves the reciprocating movement of the connecting rod.” , am I right?”

“Exactly,” Roland put away the daydreams in his mind and replied with a serious face, “Its name is a steam turbine, and it still uses high-pressure steam to propel it, but its efficiency is much higher than that of a reciprocating steam engine. ”

This is exactly the revolutionary product that Roland has conceived for a long time.

It can be said that freeing the basic industries from the restrictions of witches is also out of this original intention-in this way, Anna can concentrate on higher-end mechanical production.

The steam turbine was his attempt in this field.

The steam turbine has a wide range of uses, it can be used as power for ships, and it can also be used for thermal power, especially the latter – it can be foreseen that after Falling Dragon Ridge is recovered, Earl Speer will have to stay in her town for a long time Dealing with government affairs, relying solely on Mystery Moon’s magical power to maintain the night lighting of the factory area is very difficult, let alone the electricity supply project in the residential area.

Of course, Roland didn’t want to admit that this was a planning failure caused by his own inexperience. If he wanted to make up for this mistake, he could only use conventional means to call.

Due to the inherent defects in the cycle principle of the steam engine, the output current is sometimes high and sometimes low, and circuit voltage regulation is Roland’s weak point knowledge, so it is more appropriate to use a steam turbine with more stable output power and higher thermal efficiency.

“What should I do first?” Anna asked.

“Like the gunboat last time,” Roland turned to the page with the blades, “create a working verification model, it doesn’t need to be too big, just about one meter, it mainly solves the problem of the angle of the blades, allowing high-pressure steam Pass each stationary leaf grille smoothly. As long as you do this step, you will be most successful.”

Without detailed data, how to make a usable finished product like this?

It’s just trial and error.

Regarding the impeller part, the core of the steam turbine, Roland is not worried about the difficulties in processing at all. The cutting accuracy of the black fire is far better than the finishing machine tools of later generations; The alloy steel Lucia groped out was sufficient for this work intensity.

The key lies in the angle coordination between the static blade cascade and the moving impeller. The former is like a fixed fence, adjusting the angle at which the steam passes through, so as to prevent it from colliding with the impeller in a swarm, causing direction confusion or even opposite force, which is essentially the same. Put a comb to comb out the turbulent airflow.

If the model works properly, it should not be difficult to scale up.

When the level of processing methods and materials is improved, it is inevitable to bear fruitful industrial results.

“I understand,” Anna’s eyes flashed eagerly.

“Don’t worry.” Roland held her hand. “You should have heard from Wendy that I decided to take the initiative to catch the devil.”

“Well,” Anna blinked, “will you follow this time?”

Roland shook his head slowly.

“That’s fine,” she leaned her head on his shoulder, “I was scared to death when I saw you injured last time. UUReading Book www.sonicmtl.com”

“Really? But I heard from Nightingale that you were the calmest one at the scene. If you hadn’t dealt with it decisively, I might have really—”

In the middle of speaking, his mouth was covered by Anna’s soft hand, “Don’t say that word casually.”

“I see.” She let go of her palm after Roland nodded. “In short, what I want to say is that you must protect yourself, understand? If something happens, use the God’s Retribution Seal immediately. Don’t hesitate. Even if the devil is not caught… I will wait for your triumphant return in the castle.”

“Don’t worry,” Anna smiled, “I won’t let them hurt other witches.”

…

After she left, Roland was silent for a long time before asking in a deep voice, “Are you there?”

“Of course,” Nightingale’s figure appeared on the desk, “but I didn’t overhear what you were saying. I only came back when I saw her leave.”

He stood up and walked to the window, looking in the direction of the snow-capped mountains, and roughly described the hunting plan in his mind, “Before you go out, you have to rehearse a few times in advance to familiarize yourself with the entire capture process and the tasks you are responsible for each other.” But this is only a plan for a small number of chasing devils, and how to do it has to be adjusted according to the actual situation.” Speaking of this, he paused, “If the arrest operation encounters the worst situation… …I mean the irreversible one, you have to bring Anna back no matter what.”

Nightingale didn’t answer right away, but when Roland turned to look at her, she said with a complicated expression, “Is this the real reason why you didn’t go?”

Roland didn’t deny it, “Otherwise you would definitely choose to save me, right?”

“…Understood,” she sighed softly, “I will do my best.”

“Apart from her, you are the only one who can believe me,” Roland patted her on the shoulder and said word by word.
