My Italian: Chapter 374 diesel engine

The National Power Laboratory in Milan is one of the three major laboratories in Italy and is also the main scientific research unit for power system research.

It can be said that in terms of power research, it is the first existence in Italy. Even when the navy's ship power research encounters difficulties, it still needs the help of the Milan power laboratory.

Of course, the National Power Laboratory in Milan is also huge in size, with 3 major categories and 17 subcategories, with a total of more than 800 researchers. Of course, in addition to researchers, the National Power Laboratory also has its own supporting factory, which is responsible for manufacturing various equipment components required for experiments.

Such a well-configured laboratory must cost a lot. Over the past few years, the Milan laboratory has spent hundreds of millions of dollars, and of course produced a lot, but overall it is still losing money, with hundreds of millions of losses every year. Especially in the past two years, the emergence of various new materials and equipment has caused the laboratory to suffer more losses. Last year alone, it lost more than 15 million lire.

Of course, such arrogance naturally requires a big benefactor to be able to withstand it. At present, the biggest benefactor behind the Milan laboratory is the Savoy family. And these years the Savoy family has reaped a lot, so this year's more than 10 million lire can still withstand it for the time being, as for the future, who knows.

Of course, such a rich power laboratory naturally needs to recruit a group of valuable scientists, and Rudolf Diesel is on the list.

Speaking of which, Diesel has a long history with Italy. Before that, Diesel set up his own laboratory in Germany to study compression ignition engines. Of course, research is also difficult, especially when Diesel uses diesel as fuel.

The structural strength of compression ignition engines has always been a challenge. In one experiment, the parts on the cylinder flew around like shell fragments, almost causing casualties. The experiment was not going well, Diesel's funds were gradually exhausted, and the laboratory seemed to be unable to continue.

At this time, an important sponsor proposed that he go to Italy to conduct experiments, and the remuneration was also very generous. Facing the favorable conditions in the predicament, Diesel had no choice but to accept it.

After he came to the Milan laboratory, he realized that working behind closed doors was not a good idea. Doing research and development at home by yourself is not an opponent for joint research and development at all. Many questions that bother me have answers here.

Therefore, Diesel also put out the idea of ​​making a fortune by taking advantage of this. Instead, he became more interested in scientific research, and he wanted to produce practical results for the diesel internal combustion engine he designed.

And today, a new experiment has begun. Diesel brought his newly designed four-stroke diesel engine to the experimental field again.

"Buck, how's the inspection going?"

Diesel asked about the assistant provided by the laboratory. Although Buck was assigned to him by the laboratory, Diesel was very satisfied with his assistant during the two years of getting along with him. At work, it can provide great help for myself.

"It has been checked twice, and I checked it myself just now, and there is nothing wrong with it."

Assistant Buck's answer did not make Diesel feel at ease. "Buck, you said there won't be any problems this time?"

Don't blame Diesel for asking this question. He has conducted no less than twenty experiments at the test site of the National Power Laboratory alone. However, this diesel internal combustion engine has always had problems. Either the material is not up to standard and the internal combustion engine is damaged, or the sealing problem causes serious power loss.

Dealing with these problems has almost caused Diesel's spirit to decline, so he doesn't want to find and improve slowly after problems arise again, and change to a model of continuous improvement if he fails.

"Both, can I start?"

The staff at the test site asked the two of them.

Regarding the staff of the test site, this is because those technicians are too valuable, and the power machines they develop may be dangerous. In order to protect those precious scientific researchers, other people will do the work of the experiment. This is a system enforced by the laboratory in the event of the loss of 7 researchers in an experiment, one of whom was the tragedy of the technology giant.

"Start... don't wait a minute... let's start."

Facing the staring eyes of the testing ground staff, Diesel was finally defeated.

So in the expectant eyes, the staff started the diesel engine. There was a deafening roar, and this four-stroke diesel internal combustion engine was constantly reciprocating. The indicator driven by the connecting rod keeps turning, and it seems that nothing is going on.

"Professor, it seems that we were very successful in the early stage."

Assistant Buck looked at the rumbling diesel engine, and commented on Diesel beside him.

"It does look better than the previous few times, but we can't take it lightly and hope this machine can pass the test."

The experiment is actually very boring, and this kind of dynamic experiment is even more boring. The machine runs continuously, and the staff needs to check the records after a period of time, and then hand over the records to the researchers waiting aside.

After receiving the notebook from the staff, the two checked it.

"Rotation speed: 900-1200r/min, average effective pressure: 2.0-3.2mpa, average piston speed 8.1m/s, and torque...fuel consumption..."

After the two chatted for a while, they didn't see any problems. What else can they do now? Let's wait.

The boring experiment went on for a day, and the two stayed here most of the time except for eating.

After the sun went down, the staff who were also tired all day stopped the experiment.

"Professor Diesel, your diesel internal combustion engine does not seem to have any problems. After working for almost a day, we checked and found no problems. I believe that the test can continue tomorrow."

What the staff said made Diesel feel a little confused. The compression ignition engine developed over the years finally saw the light of day.

Although the machine has only passed its first day, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com But according to the staff, if there are no accidents in the next two days, it should not be a problem.

"Thank you...thank you...thank you Buck."

At this time, Diesel was very excited, and his wish for these years was finally coming true.

"Professor, you deserve all of this."

The assistant's words made Diesel very happy.

"But without your help, I definitely wouldn't be able to do it now. I still want to thank you, Buck."

For the next two days, Diesel stayed at the test site and watched the diesel internal combustion engine he developed run. The results are also pleasing, the four-stroke diesel internal combustion engine works well. Of course, its high horsepower and the use of waste oil that can only be used for heating, diesel as power fuel, naturally attracts attention.

Of course, as Carlo, who has always followed Diesel's progress, of course he also knew about the advent of practical diesel engines.
