Chapter 353: Evaporated snow
6 min read1,399 words
When Chen Xin, Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan came to the train station that was
originally near the city, what they saw was a ravine like a canyon and a
snowfield that was completely buried by snow, with almost no traces of
buildings. .
The gully is the original railway. Although there is a certain amount of snow
on it, there are often trains passing by, so there is not too much snow on the
railway, so that a trace like a gully is left in the snow.
The railway stations in the city were classified as fourth-class stations in
the classification of stations before the Yan Guo disaster, only one level
higher than the lowest-level ones used for train passing and overpassing.
The station itself is a small flat building, even lower than the surrounding
houses. After the blizzard, naturally it was completely buried by the snow
without any traces.
After all, it was a small station with only five trains a day before the
disaster, and it was unnecessary if the place was too big.
Although Lincheng was also looking for ways to expand the railway station and
build loading and unloading stations before the disaster, it was clear that
this work was not completed.
From the side of the gully formed by the train passing by, you can still see
some traces of the loading and unloading stations that were built before.
After all, the city still has to load and unload the trains that brought them
materials here.
It’s just that the surrounding snow is nearly ten meters deep. Standing next
to the gully and looking down is almost like standing on the top of a four-
story building and looking down. It makes people feel that everything created
by human civilization is in nature. Weili is not worth mentioning before.
However, although the snow here is deep, a large area has been dug out,
forming a relatively gentle slope.
This is obviously a place for loading and unloading materials in the city.
Otherwise, every time you load and unload materials, you will have to jump
from the top of the four-story snow-covered building to near the rails below,
which is not an easy task.
Even if you can't die in the snow, it's impossible to transport the materials
underneath so high without digging a slope.
"Axin, how are you going to dig out the train station? Although this train
station is not big, but with so much snow, even if you have enough manpower,
you have to dig for several days, right?" Qin Lan stood beside Chen Xin.
Carefully glanced at the railway below, and asked Chen Xin.
Chen Xin shook his head, and said helplessly to Qin Lan’s question: "A few
days? Alan, you underestimate the workload. Even if you give you two hundred
people, it will take at least ten and a half days to dig out the train
station. In September, this progress can only be achieved after they are
equipped with exoskeleton protective clothing, otherwise you may be able to
dig the original roof of the train station for a month or two."
"Ah? How would you dig out the train station in this case?" Qin Lan couldn't
understand what Chen Xin was thinking.
Obviously, I am here to investigate how to dig out the train station to make
the loading and unloading of trains more efficient, but now it is said that
even if there are enough manpower, the train station cannot be cleared in a
short time. This is not a contradiction. ?
“Of course it’s not digging by hand. It’s too inefficient, and there are not
enough manpower.” Chen Xin walked towards the ** in front, slid down the
slope, and continued to Qin Lan, “I’m here to see if there are There is no way
to clean up the snow more effectively. It doesn't require a lot of manpower.
Even if the time is a little slower, it's easy to say."
"Then have you figured out a way?" Qin Lan also slid down with Chen Xin. Both
of them were wearing power armor. It was easier to slip down than to walk
down.
Standing at the bottom of the gully and looking up, the feeling of snow
thickness is more intuitive. Chen Xin turned on the measurement function of
the robotic arm and measured it and found that the thickness of the snow was
10.12 meters. Such a thick snow can only be dug by people. It is a huge
project to empty the railway station.
Even with the help of construction machinery, it is not an easy job.
As for clearing out only one platform to facilitate unloading, this is fine,
but the current problem is that the city simply can't get manpower to do this.
So now either wait for the situation in the city to improve, and for patients
with mild symptoms to recover and obtain enough labor, or wait for the urban
area to find a way to send new reinforcements, or Chen Xin can think of a way
to remove the more than ten meters in front of him. The snow evaporates
directly.
Evaporation is actually a feasible idea. As long as a large enough heat source
can be created to raise the temperature within the railway station to above
zero, the snow will melt, and it will only take a few days for the snow to
melt here.
But the problem is that in the current environment, creating a large enough
heat source, not to mention where the energy comes from, is how to ensure that
the heat can spread to the entire train station after the heat source is
produced.
Although the fourth-class railway station is only a few hundred meters long
and looks small, but such a large area needs a heat source to maintain the
heat and evaporate the snow here. Chen Xin can only think of "The Age of Ice
and Vapor 》The heating field created by the energy tower and heating hub in
the game.
Fortunately, this is not something that Chen Xin cannot do at all. After all,
he has been considering this issue before, but now he is not using the energy
tower to build a planting greenhouse, but to dig a train station first.
Just want to build an energy tower, in addition to a large amount of
materials, but also need to drill a deep enough geothermal well.
The problem of materials is easy to solve. Chen Xin now has an electromagnetic
metallurgical furnace. With this furnace, he can obtain materials for building
energy towers by recycling scrap metal inside the city.
But drilling a deep enough geothermal well requires not only professional
equipment, but also professional drilling personnel.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin reacted, isn't there a drilling expert in the city?
So Chen Xin hurriedly asked Qin Lan: "Alan, you went to'Talent' yesterday, how
was his situation?"
"The situation of'Daren'? His situation is not bad. UU read www.uukanshu.com
when he dug a well for himself, he dug a hot spring, and his life is okay by
relying on the hot spring. Huh? Do you have anything to look for him?" Qin Lan
heard that Chen Xin seemed to need a "drilling expert" to do something for
him.
Chen Xin nodded and said to Qin Lan: "Then let's go to the'Talent', I need him
to help me drill the well."
"Drilling? But Axin, weren't you talking about clearing the snow from the
railway station? What does the drilling have to do with this?" Qin Lan was
confused by Chen Xin. She didn't understand how drilling was related to snow
cleaning. Together.
Chen Xin raised his mouth with confidence and smiled at Qin Lan: "The answer,
Alan, didn't you mention it yourself? "Daren" dug into the hot spring, so I
can rely on the hot spring to resist the cold, so I asked him to help me
fight. A deep well, I want to use geothermal heat to evaporate the snow here."
