Chapter 108 The Research Institute’s Thermometer
Pei Mengqing didn't expect that someone had thought about his method and put it into practice. However, when he thought of the strange technology trees in this world, even vehicles, what else is there to be strange about it?
Soon, under the leadership of Qingyu, they rushed to the "Temperature Measuring Unified Research Center" in the central area of Yanzhou University.
When the guard saw that it was a whisper, he asked a few casually, and then let Pei Mengqing and the others in.
After all, the cat clan is absolutely credible, and no one suspects the cat clan’s intent is indiscriminate.
However, the guard still notified the staff in the laboratory in advance of their arrival.
After all, although the cat clan is absolutely credible, it sometimes cannot resist instinctively pushing some "spherical objects" and "pushing objects off the table", and may also be attracted by some plants such as Polygonum multiflorum.
Maybe inadvertently cause damage in the laboratory...
When I heard that it was the cat clan coming, and there were three more people, the laboratory immediately sent a steady and steady experimental staff to receive several people.
When they learned that their purpose was to visit the thermometer, they immediately changed to warm reception.
Yanzhou University is not so optimistic about their research.
After all, there are only so many laboratories available, and the experimental funds are limited. Their messy experiments such as uniform temperatures are not so reliable.
Besides, it is indeed unreliable. It has been used for a year and a half and has not developed any useful results, so everyone is naturally not very satisfied.
Here we have to say that in this era, even higher education institutions do not know some inventions and experiments, and it will take years or even decades of hard work to get rewards.
At present, "science" has just started in this world, and it is still a scientific experiment and acquisition that is fast and fast, so they have not been able to succeed in the short term. They have not achieved success in a year and a half of "unprecedented" and have not achieved success, and will undoubtedly be questioned and ridiculed.
"We have achieved considerable success at present. From a broad and broad perspective, we believe that air is the substance with the greatest impact on temperature. Do you know air?"
The experimenter was explaining while wearing protective gear with Pei Mengqing and others.
"I know that the gas we breathe is the flowing air."
Pei Mengqing didn't say more, and didn't say that the percentage is oxygen, the percentage is nitrogen, etc.
He didn't know what these people have studied now. If he said too much, it would be bad to be regarded as the future star of the research world.
He has now switched from science to the camp of immortal cultivation.
Can science allow him to travel through time and rebirth? Can he travel through interstellar times? Can he split and open it with one sword to cut off the sea water?
cannot.
But the ability to cultivate immortals is unscientific.
Of course, if one day scientists in this world can use magic and aura reasonably and combine it with technology, they will pretend that they have never said these words.
The researcher looked at Pei Mengqing with appreciation, thinking that he was a good material and became more enthusiastic.
"Yes, but we have not been completely successful yet. We have only achieved success in stability in one aspect. Although there are many strange phenomena in it, we still cannot fully understand it."
"What does it mean?" Pei Mengqing didn't quite understand the other party's words.
It's been around, who knows what you are talking about, and those who don't know think that guy is a bureaucrat, not a researcher!
"Well, that is, we can only test temperatures above a certain value, and there will be changes in certain temperature situations," the researcher said.
Pei Mengqing decided not to listen to this guy talking nonsense.
After entering the laboratory, he learned how these experimental personnel studied the temperature...
What they call the temperature instrument is a sealed, huge jar.
The jar contains a transparent, colorless and odorless liquid.
“What is here?”
Pei Mengqing decided to ask, so as not to wrongly accuse them.
"We generally call it the source of life, one of the four great creatures, and an important member of the Five Elements..." The researchers still talked randomly.
"You mean, is there water inside?" Pei Mengqing interrupted directly.
Experimental staff: "There is such a name."
Pei Mengqing clenched her fist and almost punched her.
Just say that it is water inside, it’s all done. It’s so amazing. Those who don’t know what it is, they think it is extremely precious and rare material.
"So, you mean, when the water freezes, you can't measure the temperature, right?"
The experimenter gave a thumbs up and said that Pei Mengqing was really good at it.
The huge closed jar is densely marked with different scales, and each scale is written with something like "5 Zhurong" and "10 Zhurong".
There are just some numbers in order, but they are reversed.
Now Pei Mengqing completely understood that he had studied junior high school physics and junior high school chemistry after all.
When the water reaches 4 degrees Celsius above zero, the density is the highest, and then decreases all the way. In this way, 1 degree Celsius and 7 degrees Celsius will be very close.
The reason why the experimenters made such a large jar was because if there was a lot of water, when the density changed, the overall volume change and the water level height change would be more obvious, which would facilitate their labeling...
In other words, they distinguish the temperature by the volume and water level of the same amount of water at different temperatures...
In the short term, it is not considered that the water naturally evaporates on the top of the jar, nor does it consider the air density and pressure of the closed jar. This can indeed barely obtain some unreasonable temperature data...
But this is useless!
It’s better to take a sip of water at natural temperature. It’s probably more complicated than this, and the huge garbage device is safe!
Pei Mengqing sighed, covered her forehead, and decided to give her help:
"Water is not good, the water is quite special, and water below zero degrees will freeze, so it cannot be measured accurately. Do you know? Just use this unit, don't use it, but don't make it. Water just freezes, that is, zero degrees. Based on this as the standard, you can try to find other materials, liquids, such as... forget it, just agree.
"Mercury, just use this. This is more sensitive to temperature changes and will not freeze when the temperature is very low. Only a small device can create precise, reliable and portable tools without being affected too much from the outside world."
Mercury has a larger thermal expansion coefficient and is much easier to use than water.
It won’t be possible if you don’t just do it. If you continue to follow this progress, maybe these people will change a lot of useless materials, and maybe even oil will be used.
