Guanshishan Academy is the largest scientific research institution in the world and the largest workshop in the world.

None of them.

As Li Kuan's disciple, Lu Zhaolin was well-known in Guanshishan Academy, so the Guanshishan Academy zinc smelting workshop was quickly built.

The factory uses ready-made workshops in the workshop city.

As for whether the construction of polluted enterprises such as zinc smelting workshops will have any bad effects in the workshop city, there is no concept at all in this era.

Even the envoys from various vassal states were full of envy and jealousy when they saw the black smoke coming out from time to time in the workshop city.

The word environmental pollution has not appeared at all.

Even Li Kuan can't take care of that much now.

As long as the sewage is not directly discharged into the Wei River, let’s ignore it for now.

"Langjun, directly invading the steel pipe into the zinc liquid in a harmonious state can indeed complete the production of galvanized steel pipes.

According to the current cost estimate, it is also far lower than that of copper pipes. However, the thickness of the galvanized layer in the steel pipe is difficult to control, and I think it is a very large waste.

If there is a way to achieve it, even if the thickness of the galvanized layer is only one-tenth of that now, it should be enough.”

As the first eight-level craftsman in the Chu Palace, Dai Quan is one of the few all-round craftsmen.

Lu Zhaolin wanted to set up a zinc smelting workshop and make galvanized steel pipes. Of course, the ones who came to help were the most powerful people in the Chu Palace and enjoyed the best resources.

"Well, from the laboratory comparison, the thickness of the zinc layer is enough as long as one millimeter of zero points. However, such a thin galvanized layer cannot be controlled at all.

The cost of making zinc ingots is relatively high now, but this is also temporary and will definitely drop significantly slowly.

At that time, the galvanized layer will be slightly thicker and will not have much impact. The corrosion resistance will be better."

Lu Zhaolin could naturally think of the problem that Dai Quan said.

But for a moment, he didn't think of any good idea, so he could only comfort himself like this.

"Brother Lu, I have an idea, I don't know if it is feasible."

At this moment, Wang Heng, who was standing behind Lu Zhaolin, hesitated for a moment and stood up.

As Lu Zhaolin's classmate, Wang Heng is also very talented in studying matters and chemistry, otherwise he would not be able to play with Lu Zhaolin.

You should know that Wang Heng's father Wang Dali was once a coolie at the Weishui Wharf, a typical civilian.

Even the common people used to describe him as overestimating him.

Lu Zhaolin is a child of the Lu family in Fanyang, and the difference in social status between the two sides is not a big deal.

Even in Guanshishan Academy, this birth gap has been weakened to the greatest extent, but it is impossible to be affected at all.

Even in later generations, if someone of your classmates is the son of a ministerial leader, would you really think that everyone is equal?

Do you really feel that you can live with him completely on the same level?

"Brother Wang, you have any ideas, but it's okay."

After hearing Wang Heng's words, Lu Zhaolin immediately looked full of expectations.

He knows this low-key classmate more well.

To be honest, among their students, Wang Heng's attainments in studying matters and chemistry are at least among the top ten.

"The thickness of zinc layer of galvanized steel pipes is very different from the inside and outside. Although the zinc layer on the outside is a little thicker than required, it is not as exaggerated as the inner wall.

At this time, we actually have a relatively simple way to improve the thickness of the zinc layer on the inner wall."

Wang Heng organized the language a little and then began to explain his own views.

“What method?”

Lu Zhaolin asked very cooperatively.

"After the steel pipe is plating zinc, blow the pipe. As long as the wind is strong enough, the excess zinc liquid on the inner wall will be blown out, which can greatly reduce the thickness of the inner wall galvanized layer."

As soon as Wang Heng proposed this method, Dai Quan's eyes lit up.

However, he immediately asked several questions.

"Wang Langjun's proposal is theoretically feasible. However, the temperature of zinc liquid is more than 400 degrees. In this case, how can I blow air inside the steel pipe?

Moreover, our steel pipes are relatively long, and if the wind is not strong enough, they will basically not achieve their goal."

"It's true that as Master Dai said, if these two problems cannot be solved, this plan cannot be implemented."

Lu Zhaolin nodded, thinking about how to do it.

"During this period, various workshops have been introducing steam equipment. I think it can also be done with steam engine equipment to blow the steel pipes inside.

Relying on the power provided by the steam engine, the air is constantly compressed into specific equipment and then introduced the wind into the inner wall of the steel pipe, which can achieve the just idea.

After using the steam engine, not only can the wind be provided very stable, but there is no need to worry about the high temperature in the furnace of zinc liquid, how to blow the air."

Obviously, Wang Heng would have proposed this because he naturally thought about the issue of the realization of the solution.

As a student who is proficient in the fields of study and chemistry, Wang Heng also has a relatively full understanding of steam engine equipment.

There is no way, who makes steam engine equipment the most popular thing in the field of investigation now?

No matter what the teaching staff and students who study, if they know nothing about steam engine equipment, they may be despised at any time.

“Use steam engine equipment to blow the air?”

Dai Quan was really shocked this time, "This plan seems to be really feasible."

"I'll go to the Steam Engine Research Institute later and ask Teacher Li for advice on how to make a steam engine equipment that can be used for blowing."

Lu Zhaolin thought about it for a while and immediately felt the beauty of Wang Heng's proposal.

With the current steam engine equipment technology, it is not difficult to develop such a device that can blow drying.

It may even take a few days to come out.

Because most of the steam engine structural parts are universal.

Only compressed air-related structures are needed.

With the strength of Guanshishan Academy, this is not a difficult problem.

"Well, if Li Yan can help design it personally, it would be great. Once this steam engine equipment is put into use, the cost of making our galvanized steel pipes can be immediately reduced by 20%, and the benefits will be completely different."

Dai Quan also looked expectant.

He had a premonition that the emergence of this galvanized steel pipe would bring great changes to the Tang Dynasty.

In the future, various new bathrooms and even tap water will have the hope of entering more people's homes.
