Chen Xin, who returned to his home, threw himself into the bathroom, and
soaked in the warm bath comfortably.
In this room designed as a bathroom, apart from a large bathtub that occupies
80% of the bathroom area and two shower heads, there are no other facilities,
allowing people to fully enjoy the fun and comfort of bathing.
The water in the bath is hot spring water drawn from the ground. Although the
temperature of the water is affected by the extreme cold weather, it is still
very comfortable to soak in with the help of auxiliary heating.
Although each room in the refuge has its own shower facility, bathing and
bathing are obviously two different things. One is just cleaning the body, the
other is a relaxing enjoyment.
This may be a very common thing before the disaster, and most ordinary people
can enjoy it if they want to.
But now after the disaster, this is an out-and-out luxury. Without sufficient
resources, it is difficult to enjoy a bath.
When I was in the urban area before, although Chen Xin improved the boiler,
the shelters had better heating capacity and sufficient hot water supply, but
only hot showers were provided to the survivors, without bathing. This kind of
thing.
Although bathing has a very good therapeutic effect on hypothermia and
frostbite from the perspective of treatment, the cost of taking a bath and
taking a shower is completely different.
After all, in order to save water and coal, although the official refuge has
opened showers so that survivors can take a hot bath, there is a time limit.
Although 15 minutes is enough to take a comfortable bath, But there is
absolutely nothing to enjoy.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin couldn't help but wonder if he wanted Li Yulong to
build a bathroom in his refuge in the urban area. Many people would like to
take a bath, right?
However, this idea just circulated in his mind and gave up. It was not that he
could not get it. On the contrary, it was too simple, and he did not need to
do it specially. As long as he talked to Li Yulong, he could handle it. The
matter is handled well.
Today, Chen Xin is thinking more about how to help the country's post-disaster
reconstruction and how to improve the living standards of survivors. He has no
energy to think about such small things.
This is not because Chen Xin has positioned himself too high, nor is it a
superhero plot with greater abilities and greater responsibilities. It is just
a simple and simple way of being poor and being alone, and being able to
benefit the world.
It is not difficult to understand or impossible to take care of yourself and
the family around you when you are incapable. When you are able, to do your
best to help others.
Although in the last days, survival becomes more difficult. Everyone is
already struggling to live. There is no spare capacity to help others. Some
people even become very selfish. In order to survive, they will rob others to
live. opportunity.
But for Chen Xin, he has been able to live well, he can live better, and he
can live better while helping others to live better. There is no problem.
Because he has this ability, and there is no loss for him to do so.
Now he has given the drawing of the national exoskeleton protective clothing,
this equipment that allows most people to regain outdoor activities is also
organizing production; the production line of isotope thermoelectric batteries
has also been completed and will be put into use soon; improved The
construction of the communication base station had started before the
snowstorm, and the laying of the communication network was only a matter of
time; and...
After counting down, Chen Xin found that he had actually done a lot of things
and helped many people.
For example, for the more than 200,000 survivors in the urban area, without
their own help, quite a few of them would have died in this blizzard, and the
life of so many people was saved for Chen Xin. It is a very fulfilling thing.
In addition, for Chen Xin, it is also very attractive to Chen Xin if he can
make the country complete its post-disaster reconstruction, restore everything
to normal, and restore his life to the way it was before the disaster.
So he is now considering how to continue to improve the living conditions in
the urban area and increase the speed of post-disaster reconstruction.
The dome city mentioned in previous discussions with researchers is of course
a very suitable choice, but the construction of the dome city is too difficult
and impractical.
In addition, of course there are other ways to improve the living conditions
of the city.
In the current environment, the biggest problem and challenge faced by
survivors is cold. If the temperature can be raised, many problems can be
easily solved.
When it comes to warming up, the energy tower that can still ensure urban
heating even in the low temperature of minus 100 degrees, which is also seen
in the construction game "Ice Age" in a cold environment, is obviously a good
choice.
Although it is the black technology in sci-fi works, the energy tower itself
is only a product of the steam age, and it is not impossible to reproduce it
in reality.
It's just that even if it is reproduced, the energy tower will not be able to
do such an exaggerated thing to heat a city, because it is simply a big
boiler, and it is better to use pipes to transport steam or hot water for
heating.
This is not only more efficient for heating, the heating effect is also much
better, UU read www.uukanshu. After all, except for people like Chen Xin who
considers wanting to raise the temperature of an entire area, no one will
consider the radiation heating method of energy towers. That efficiency is too
low.
Unless this is not simply burning coal to generate heat, but using coal to
drive the machine and get more heat from other sources.
This is really feasible. For example, the ground source heat pump currently
used by Chen Xin in his refuge is such a product, which relies on electricity
to drive compressors and water pumps to obtain more heat from the ground.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin couldn't help but think of the setting of digging a
very deep foundation to build an energy tower in the game, and conceived it in
his mind as a very feasible solution.
First dig a deep enough pit to reach the deep stratum. By blowing the wind
into the pit, air flow is formed to bring the geotropics in the deep stratum
to the surface, and then used for temperature increase, so that it can be
obtained with a small amount of energy consumption. A lot of heat.
With enough thermal energy, whether it is used for heating or generating
electricity, it is enough to change the status quo of a city.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin gradually formed a construction plan with an energy
tower as the core.
