Chapter 284 Generators and batteries, power systems!(1/2)
In addition to these electric protective nets, there are also some electrical appliances related to life.
[Electric lamp (green): It can emit weak yellow light and illuminate a small room. It requires iron (green)*1, glass (green)*2, and copper block (green)*1]
[Electric oven (green): can grill food, smokeless barbecue is healthier! Requires iron block (green)*10, copper block (green)*2]
[Range hood (green): An electrical appliance that extracts oil smoke and discharges it from the tree house. It is a must-have electrical appliance in the kitchen! It requires 10 iron blocks (green) and 2 copper blocks (green)]
[Electric water pump (green): Connect to the water source. It can automatically draw water after being powered on. It needs to be connected to the pipeline. It requires 5 iron blocks (green) and 2 copper blocks (green)]
[Electric water heater (green): It can heat water and can be used for showering. It needs to be connected to pipes. Requires iron blocks (green)*5, copper blocks (green)*2]
[Pipeline (green): The pipe connected to the water pump, which can withstand water with a temperature of 0-100 degrees. Pipe*1m requires iron block (green)*1]
This can, this really can!
With these, his tree house truly feels like a home!
Not to mention the electric oven and range hood, the electric water pump and electric water heater at the back were enough to make him smile.
He had previously felt that the function of his own bathroom was too crude. He had to go down to get water every time, and the large bathroom was usually handled outside. Moreover, there was no water heater. When the weather was hot before, the water temperature was quite suitable.
It's so cold now that I have to boil water myself every time I take a shower.
It's too much trouble and a waste of time, and it's not safe to go out to solve the problem.
Now, you can use an electric water pump to draw water!
The power system must be set up.
This time it is really a major renovation from the inside out! The most important thing is that these appliances do not require a lot of copper blocks. They require the largest number of power grids and pipes, but they do not require copper!
These copper blocks in his hand can meet the needs of many people!
Just do it.
The first is the generator.
Since he has coal mines in his hands, it is naturally impossible for him to use a hand-operated generator.
However, the introduction of coal generators says that it will produce exhaust gas, heat and noise, so it is best not to place coal generators inside the tree house.
Xu Xin thought about it and felt that it would not be appropriate to leave it outside.
It is not safe outside the tree house. Even if the surroundings are guarded by plant hearts, there will still be unpredictable factors such as natural disasters and monsters. It is really inappropriate to put something like a generator that provides electrical energy outside the tree house.
.
You must know that the three major elements of the Doomsday Fortress, food, energy, and weapons, must be inside the fortress. Once attacked, you can defend the fortress. As long as the fortress is not destroyed, there will not be any big losses.
Therefore, things like generators still need to be placed inside the tree house.
But exhaust gas, heat and noise...
Xu Xin thought about his newly expanded space on the first and second floors.
Those spaces are completely separated from the three-story living area and four-story planting area where he lives, and they are far away, so there is no need to worry about mutual interference.
I chose the new space of the tree house on the second floor! It just so happens that the second floor is also home to various workstations, and it really has a factory atmosphere.
Moreover, there is no third floor above the new second floor, which is more convenient for exhaust gas emissions. After all, exhaust outlets can be opened on it.
Xu Xin immediately went down to the second floor and opened the door to the new space.
This new space of 100 square meters seems to be a little larger than when we came before.
According to the introduction of the banyan tree, the crown of this banyan tree will continue to grow!
However, a problem arises.
As the banyan tree continues to grow, will the positions of the items placed in the tree house change?
Xu Xin observed carefully, and through the texture of the floor and walls, he came to a conclusion: the formed floor will not change, it will not stretch as a whole, but will continue to grow and expand from the edges.
In other words, if he now places a coal generator next to the window and wants to use the window for exhaust emissions, as the banyan tree grows, the position of the generator will not change, but the window will become farther and farther away from the generator!
Hmm...it's a bit troublesome.
He can open an opening in the ceiling for exhaust, but this involves problems such as rainwater...
Let's do this first. Anyway, the growth rate of this tree house is not very fast. It seems that it may not grow more than a few centimeters in a day. It will just be adjusted later.
After making the decision, Xu Xin immediately made a coal generator.
【Please select the placement location.】
He directly chose the edge of the two-story tree house, near the window for exhaust, which was the furthest away from his living area.
"Clang!" There was a loud noise, and a coal generator three meters wide and one meter five high appeared next to the window.
Xu Xin stepped forward to observe.
The entire generator is made of iron, showing a bright metallic color, and the angular structure looks really technological. In front of the generator, there is a round iron cover with a handle on it.
He pulled the handle away, revealing a furnace-like combustion chamber.
It seems that all you need to do is put coal in it.
Xu Xin didn't throw coal directly into it, and he didn't connect the wires and battery. Starting it would just be a waste of coal.
He thought about it and built several more walls around it to enclose the entire coal generator in a small room. Otherwise, the exhaust gas generated during power generation would be all over the house. In this case, there would be no problem if there was only one exhaust outlet through the window.
Already.
This small room is called the power generation room.
Next is the battery. With the battery, the generator can generate electricity and store electricity.
He immediately made and designated an area as a storage room, and then made a battery and placed it in it.
This battery is really big. It is a cylinder nearly one meter high and about half a meter in diameter. It just stands on the ground.
There was a small screen on the surface of the cylinder, which was dark. Xu Xin clicked on it and the screen lit up.
[Remaining power: 0%]
Although there is no power, it can still light up. It should be similar to the principle of the treehouse screen and those workbenches. It is the energy provided by the treehouse.
The next step is to connect the battery and generator.
However, how should this wire be placed? If there is no insulating rubber or something, won't you get an electric shock if you accidentally touch it?
He immediately returned to the production room and tentatively made a ten-meter wire using a copper block (green).
[Wire paths can be set.]
Select wire path?
Xu Xin discovered that the structural diagram of the entire tree house appeared on the small screen on the basic electrical appliance production table.
Could it be that this wire is directly buried in the wall or floor of the tree house?
Xu Xin tried to control the screen, connected the wires to the generator, and directly connected them to the battery in another room along the floor of the tree house.
[The wire path is set up.]
Xu Xin immediately ran to see the generator and found that there were no traces on the path where he had installed the wires.
Sure enough, these wires were automatically buried in the treehouse walls.
This is more comfortable and saves messy wires and the possibility of electric shock.
He immediately opened the small round iron door of the generator, tentatively threw a few pieces of coal inside, and then closed it.
The moment he closed it, the number lit up on the small round iron door: 7/200. Then, the generator began to roar and began to operate, and the entire generator began to tremble.
He did indeed throw seven coals into it just now. It seems that the coal generator can throw in at most two hundred coals.
However, the sound is indeed quite loud, but it should not affect his living area.
Xu Xin went to the next door again, and the battery screen had automatically lit up, and the words "Charging" were displayed, and the battery level was still 0%.
Then it jumped to 1% under Xu Xin’s nose.
"The power generation speed of this coal generator is not very fast." Xu Xin said to himself.
But that's right, this battery can store a total of five kilowatt hours of electricity, which is still a lot of energy.
Under normal circumstances, a family consumes about 5-10 kilowatt hours of electricity a day. When using refrigerators, water heaters, refrigerators, desktop computers and other power-consuming appliances, the daily electricity consumption is only about 10 kilowatt hours.
Looking at the charging speed, it should take about an hour to fully charge the battery.
Pretty good charging efficiency.
However, only five kilowatt hours of electricity can be stored, which is still too little, and energy needs to be reserved.
Xu Xin decided to directly make a blue-level battery.
A green-level battery requires five green-level iron blocks and two green-level copper blocks, while a blue-level battery requires one blue-level iron block and one blue-level copper block respectively.
He now has twelve blue-level copper blocks in his hand, and he can definitely use one.
Electricity storage is very necessary. According to the instructions that the power grid and power trap must be connected to the battery, both the power grid and the power trap require a large amount of stored power to support it.
Xu Xin immediately made a piece without hesitation.
To be continued...
