There were tanks in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 17 The First Generator in the Northern Song Dynasty
Thanks to the book friends: There is no boat in the sea of ​​suffering, laughing and forgetting the enthusiasm for the reward.

(Today's situation is a bit special, so the update time is late, and the second update will be after 12 o'clock. Don't wait, everyone, go to bed early, and see you tomorrow morning.)
After lunch, Axiu Bamboo Basket brought a bowl of food to Yang Cheng, and at the same time went to replace Yang Cheng.

The child has a wild personality, so Yang Cheng can't rest assured if he has to watch over him all the time.

Axiu was fine in the afternoon, so she asked Yang Cheng to play, while she borrowed a stool from the next door and sat by the side to watch.

Li Chu was next to the yard, using wooden nails to piece together the planks of the waterwheel one by one. Considering the river's flood season, the waterwheel was made relatively large.

Originally, according to Axiu's idea, since the waterwheel was made, something should be added to draw the river water.

The reason is that Axiu had seen such a waterwheel in the home of a landlord in Xiangcheng County. It was very convenient to operate and could irrigate the fields with river water. However, Carpenter Li in the village would not know how to do this. She did not expect that Li At the beginning, I knew such delicate carpentry work.

What Axiu was talking about was a serious waterwheel.

Li Chu did this not to build a waterwheel, but to turn the waterwheel through the river water to play the role of a rotor.

Although there was no pollution in ancient times and the river water was clear, as a person from later generations, when it comes to drinking water, he still chooses a well not far away.

After spending most of the day and effort, Li Chu's water truck was finally assembled successfully.

It was laid flat on the ground, with a diameter of more than six meters, which was a bit big. Li Chu couldn't transport it to the riverside by himself.

As for the river bank that Li Chu chose, the bank is more than one meter away from the water surface, and the water surface is at least three meters away from the bottom of the water, because the bamboo pole used for measurement is only this long, and a six-meter waterwheel is enough.

To install the waterwheel on the river, it is necessary to ask someone to help.

Li Chu went to the village again, and hired ten young and strong helpers at a wage of [-] Wen a day per person.

"Xiao Chu, we will listen to you as you say how to do it."

Li Chu's yard also belongs to this village in principle, but it is not built in the gathering place in the center of the village. Among the ten people, some are older than Li Chu, and some are younger than Li Chu, but all of them are tall and strong. At first glance, he is a mighty Lord.

The leader is a 30-something-year-old Uncle Li, called Li Han, with a curly beard and a ferocious face. He looks a bit like Zhang Fei and Li Kui, but his inner personality is completely opposite, very gentle. He doesn't care if everyone teases and jokes.

Because Li Hanneng often finds jobs for the big guys in the county, the young and strong people in the village are all headed by Uncle Li.

Everyone looked at Li Chu with smiles, because Li Chu's wages were higher than others.

"Use eight people, first help me carry this to the river."

Li Chu pointed to the assembled waterwheel on the ground, and pointed out the destination to Li Han.

"Then come two more, and go to the forest with me to cut some trees."

The wood is enough, but it is only used to support the pillars of the waterwheel, and it needs to be cut in the forest temporarily.There is no need for any big tree material, just a trunk as thick as a fist is enough, and no one will say anything if you cut a few.

The three of them each carried a few tree trunks to the river bank.

"I didn't expect Xiao Chu to be a carpenter."

Li Han and his group also recognized that it was a waterwheel. Li Chu nodded, and then assigned manpower to fix the beam frame of the waterwheel according to his instructions. Grab nails secure.

Considering the coldness of the river in this winter, Li Chu raised the wages of the two men who went into the water by [-] wen each.

Now that the foundation has been stabilized, everyone works together to set up the waterwheel and install it.

While doing things here, Li Chu was on the sidelines, sizing up the ten people seriously. Because of the residual memory of his predecessor, he still had a deep understanding of this Li Han. If he followed his plan, the Li Han in front of him would Han is a good talent.

Except for Li Han, the remaining nine people, when watching them work, they are also very serious, no one is lazy and slippery, and it can be used.

Li Chu secretly kept the names and appearances of these nine people in his heart.

The waterwheel is set up!
Li Chu climbed up and checked carefully, and after making sure that there was no problem, he let go of the clamp, and the waterwheel started to rotate with the flow of the river.

Then Li Chu ran to the side again, and carefully observed whether the fixed angle of the shelf was tilted.

Well, no tilt, just right position.

The waterwheel is also a strenuous job. In this winter, everyone's faces are covered with sweat.

In consideration of waterproofing, a small house for storing power generation equipment had to be built.

Li Chu asked everyone to pick up some gravel, and asked Uncle Zheng from the folk kiln to send a batch of adobe bricks. Then he built a small house with adobe bricks on the river bank. The dimensions of the house, height and width, were all according to Li Chu's requirements. standards come.

While building the house, Li Chu also mixed cement and sand and gravel, and made several large cement slabs on the ground.

He doesn't know how to make a cement roof, and there are too many ways to make steel bars inside, so he simply replaced it with cement slabs.

It will take a day or two for the cement to dry. After the houses without roofs are built, Li Chu will pay wages to everyone one by one.

Later, it comes to the generator process, which relies purely on brain power and does not require any manpower. Li Chu asked Li Han and the others to return to the village first, as there would be places that would need him in a few days.

The principle of power generation is that the rotor cuts the magnetic field and generates electrons.

Generating electricity with a magnet is the simplest one, but this limitation is too small, and the voltage V of the generated electricity is too small.

In this regard, Li Chu has his own solution, which is to customize two super large magnets from the customization system.

This small room is used to store magnets.

But before that, he had to finish the rotor thoroughly.

Use a straight tree, plug it in from the opening of the waterwheel, connect the turning force of the waterwheel, put one end of the wooden pole into the hut, and get stuck in the middle of the two magnets, and then make the trunk head into a The clip is used to fix and hold the rotating copper rod.

Turning the copper rod is also customized to the system. With the blacksmith technology of the Northern Song Dynasty, it cannot be made so stable and even.And it also needs to be bent.

First bend 2 90 degrees inwards, then 2 90 degrees outwards, the bends are not in the same place, but only bent every few meters, and finally it is like a tennis racket, or a **** style shelf.

(This is hard to describe. You can download the generator principle on Baidu to know what shape it is.)
Fix the middle of one end of the finished copper rod shelf to the straight wooden pole that the waterwheel extends into the house.

The other end of the copper rod shelf is connected with two wires, and then a wire is added from the middle of the two wires.

The wires are all purchased from the customized system, and it is precisely because of the customized system that Li Chu has the confidence to dare to make this generator. At the same time, Li Chu also understands one thing.

Customized systems have high price restrictions on technological barriers.

However, that doesn't include tech in your head.

Like this kind of generator, if you buy it directly from the customized system, the price of the first generator will be at a very high price due to technological barriers.

However, if you only buy some parts of the generator and assemble it yourself, you only need to pay very low material prices.

After connecting the wires, one more item is required.

The role of the ballast is to stabilize the current, stabilize the current, and voltage.

Connect the two wires from the extra points to the ballast, and then connect two wires from the ballast. These two wires are directly connected to the wires used at home.

To this end, Li Chu also deliberately cut down more than ten long bamboos, opened up the bamboo joints inside, and passed the wires through the bamboo joints. In doing so, the bamboo joints were used to protect the wires from water, and then the bamboo joints were cut down every little distance. , away from a support point, support the bamboo pole on it.

When Li Chu connected the wires to the small yard, the sky outside gradually became dusk and dusk.

Axiu is back, and there is nothing going out in the town at this time, so there is no need to guard her anymore.

Yang Cheng, Yang Kang, and Aning stared at Li Chu curiously in the yard.

Because Li Chu said just now that he wanted to make them a super big, super powerful magic trick.

After connecting the wires into the house, Li Chu installed a master switch in the main hall, and then separated several wires, one connected to the east wing, one connected to the west wing, and one connected outside the main hall. , for yard lighting.

In the main hall, another branch is connected to the main room.

In each living room, Li Chu installed a closed-circuit switch, which is the kind of switch used to turn on the lights in the houses of later generations.

After the wires are done, it's time to install the bulb.

The price of the light bulb is also cheap. One custom coin, the incandescent lamp of later generations, can order ten.

One is installed in each room. In the east wing, considering that Yang Kang likes to read, another one is installed on the wall for him. When a table is added here in the future, it can be used as a desk lamp.

The lights in the yard use larger wattage bulbs.

Axiu looked left and right in the yard, and then looked again. Li Chu had kept them secret. She didn't know what these things were used for, but looking at the appearance and exquisiteness of these things, she thought they were from heaven. s things.

Because Li Chu told her that in the past two days, he sleepwalked in heaven several times, and Gongshuzi gave him a lot of things.

After everything in the yard was done, the sky outside had already started to get dark.

Walking outside the yard, some objects can no longer be seen clearly, only some vague shapes can be seen.

When Li Chu arrived at the bank of the river, he stood outside the hut, feeling quite sad.

The first generator in the Northern Song Dynasty is about to be interviewed.

Li Chu summoned two magnets from the space and put them into the hut. Due to the difference in poles between the two magnets, a magnetic field was instantly generated.

Then Li Chu walked to the side of the waterwheel and loosened the clamps of the waterwheel.

The water flow drives the waterwheel to rotate, and the waterwheel also drives the copper rod frame as the rotor to rotate.

The copper rod rack rotates in the magnetic field from left to right, cutting the magnetic field into countless electrons, and then the electrons are transmitted to the wire through the copper rod.

The wires go to the ballast, and the work lights on the ballast come on...
