"Mr. Chen, regarding the isotope thermoelectric battery, the project team put
forward new requirements, hoping to develop small batteries." A staff member
stood in front of Chen Xin with a document and informed him of the latest
project. Claim.
Listening to the other party's request, Chen Xin didn't think there was any
problem, but just confirmed the specific request to the other party: "Small
battery? How small is it, and the performance parameters?"
The size and weight of the isotope temperature difference battery originally
manufactured by Chen Xin is not very large, it is almost the size of a boiling
water bottle, and one person can carry it around. Now it is required to make a
smaller battery, which inevitably makes Chen Xin curious about them. How small
is it to do?
"On this point, the request from the project team is to make a light carrying
belt that can be carried by a single soldier. The size is within 20cm in
height and no more than 10cm in diameter, which is almost the size of a large
thermos cup." I opened the document in hand and read the specific requirements
above: "The rated output power of the battery is required to be no less than
30KW, and the service life is no less than one year. The battery can be
overloaded to increase the instantaneous output power at the cost of reducing
the service life. There are no other requirements."
Having said this, the staff also handed the documents in their hands to Chen
Xin.
After listening to the staff's read-out request, Chen Xin accepted the
document he handed over, and after looking through it a few times, he said
with great interest: "Such a small size, are you using it for individual power
armor? ?"
"This... this project is highly confidential. We only know the performance
requirements. We don't know what to apply to." The staff were unable to answer
Chen Xin's questions, although they needed to be responsible for contacting
Chen Xin. He was able to access some high-secret information, but he could not
have the authority to know anything.
Chen Xin shrugged his shoulders indifferently to the staff's answer, shook his
head and said, "Okay, I don't know if I don't know. Has the prototype been
delivered?"
"Yes, the relevant prototypes have already been delivered. The priority of
this purpose is level 1, and we will give the highest priority to any needs
you have." The staff hurriedly asked the people around them to send in a small
container and opened it. After the container, he showed Chen Xin the prototype
of the small isotope thermoelectric battery manufactured by the related
project team.
Chen Xin was not surprised that the country was able to produce a small
prototype of the isotope thermoelectric battery so quickly. With his isotope
thermoelectric battery as a reverse reference, the country itself has
accumulated technology in this area and produced a small prototype. It is not
a problem.
However, it is obvious that the isotope thermoelectric battery of this small
prototype machine cannot meet the design requirements in all aspects,
otherwise it will not be sent to Chen Xin.
"It seems that your research on isotope thermoelectric batteries is
progressing well. When can they be put into practical use?" Chen Xin is still
very concerned about this. After all, once isotopic thermoelectric batteries
are put into use in all aspects, they can help Chen Xin. To earn a lot of
survival points.
For this, the staff is not easy to answer. He doesn’t know much about the
relevant project process, so he can only answer: "I am not very clear about
the specific situation, but since the prototype of the small battery has been
developed, it should be Is it coming soon?"
"Okay, it seems that the progress is a bit slower than I expected." Chen Xin
didn't care about it either. After all, this is for scientific research, not
for skill production in the game, just click and finish.
Ask Han Ze to reassemble this small container and send it to the studio below.
At the same time, Chen Xin also said to the staff: "Let me study this thing
first. I will inform you of the specific materials needed later. "
"Okay, Mr. Chen, then we will leave first." After speaking, the staff politely
bid farewell to Chen Xin and took the others to leave Chen Xin's shelter.
After these people left, Han Ping was about to close the door, but Chen Xin
stopped him and said to him: "Get ready, go out with me, and call Alan up by
the way."
"Okay, I'm going to prepare now." When Chen Xin said that he was going out,
Han Ping did not ask Chen Xin where he was going, so he went to make
preparations.
——————————————————
"Where are we going?" Qin Lan, who was called out by Chen Xin, was a little
surprised why Chen Xin called herself to go out together.
"Go to Xiaolong's, he's officially working now, so go and take a look." Chen
Xin replied to Qin Lan, and at the same time explained to her: "Seeing you
have been bored at home all this time, I'm afraid you are in a bad mood. So I
call you out to go around."
"Thanks, this dark snowy day, do you want to go out for a lonely stroll?" Qin
Lan couldn't help but complain about Chen Xin's words.
"That's not what I said, I'm not worried that you are suffocated?" Chen Xin
smiled at Qin Lan, but he quickly asked Qin Lan, "In addition, I just want to
ask Alan, how do you like power armor? How do things look."
Chen Xin's question made Qin Lan feel a little surprised, and asked a little
strangely: "Power armor? That kind of thing only in science fiction movies?
Does it have any practical significance?"
"Yes, because I think the country should be developing this thing. Moreover,
it is not difficult for me to make a power armor that can be used, so I want
to ask you if I can make a power armor for you. , What functions do you think
it should have, and what requirements should be met." Chen Xin replied to Qin
Lan, without hiding his thoughts.
"Axin, can you really make power armor?" Qin Lan was a little bit incredulous,
but after Chen Xin gave her an affirmative answer, she thought about it and
said: "It can provide systemic protection. Is it the most important thing?
Followed by...environmental scanning, battlefield support?
It’s not easy for you to ask me this for a while, but personally, from the
perspective of game experience and combat, I hope to have a hidden function
that can provide aiming assistance. For a sniper, these two items should be
The most important thing? "
"Really? So Alan, do you prefer specialized power armor?" Chen Xin is not
surprised at this. After all, Qin Lan is a sniper, and her needs must be based
on her own experience and put forward relevant requirements.
After asking Qin Lan, Chen Xin looked at Han Ping who was driving aside and
asked him: "Han Ping, what do you think?"
"Ah? Me? I don't know!" Han Ping didn't react for a while, not knowing how to
answer.
"Just talk about it, you should have heard of such things as power armor? If
you are given a power armor, what functions do you hope to have?" Chen Xin did
not let Han Ping off, and still wanted to hear him. opinion.
"This..." Han Ping was lost in thought, but after thinking about it, he still
didn't have any ideas. He just replied tentatively: "Can I run faster, jump
higher, and have more strength?"
"Is it faster, taller, stronger? It's a very average idea." Chen Xin didn't
think Han Ping's answer was perfunctory, but found it quite valuable.
Perhaps Han Ping thought his answer was too simple, and after racking his
brains, he added: "When I was a soldier, what I was most afraid of was the
cross-country load-bearing after the emergency assembly. If I can carry more
heavy things. , You can carry more ammunition, I think this should be a more
practical choice~www.mtlnovel.com~Welfare] Pay attention to the public.. No.
[Book Friends Base Camp], read books every day and draw cash/points!
"I think this makes sense. For ordinary fighters, being able to carry more
ammunition and equipment is the key to enhancing their survivability on the
battlefield." Qin Lan said from the side, agreeing with Han Ping's suggestion.
Even though he was a sniper, Qin Lan still knew the needs of ordinary soldiers
on the battlefield.
After listening to the suggestions of Han Ping and Qin Lan, Chen Xin nodded
and said in summary: "In other words, in your opinion, a set of power armor
must at least increase the user’s speed, weight, and defense capabilities, so
that it can be used. Can a person carry more supplies, stay on the battlefield
longer, and at the same time have good protection?"
"These should be basic. If they are classified and specialized, such as
snipers, blasters or attackers, they should be classified and strengthened
according to different uses." Qin Lan added again.
"Understood, then I will first design a set of basic models, and then make
improvements based on the basic models." Chen Xin nodded to express
understanding.
After Chen Xin said that he could make power armor, Qin Lan ~www.mtlnovel.com~
did not doubt what he said. On the contrary, because Han Ping did not know
Chen Xin enough, he asked curiously: "Mr. Chen Xin, you Is it really possible
to make power armor? The development and manufacture of this kind of thing is
not something that can be done by an individual? Isn't this a technology that
the country can have?"
"That's correct, but in fact it is not as difficult to make power armor as you
think." Chen Xin saw that Qin Lan also showed curiosity after hearing Han
Ping's question, Chen Xin just smiled and explained: "The manufacture of power
armor itself is actually not complicated. The core is just hydraulic
transmission and structural support. Even if it is equipped with various
functions, as long as you have relevant knowledge, even an individual can do
it in a private workshop. Designed, produced and assembled.
Before the disaster, countries were already developing power exoskeleton and
the like, which were actually unprotected versions of power armor.
What really restricts the development and input of power armor is actually the
energy issue. This is also the same for power exoskeleton. It can only take a
few hours or even ten minutes to charge at a time. Such things have no
practical value. "
"So when Axin you created the isotope thermoelectric battery to solve the
energy problem, the rapid practical application of this kind of things that
originally stayed on paper and laboratories became inevitable?" Qin Lan gave
the key answer.
