"Honeycomb... a secondary combustion chamber? My God, this structure... allows the combustibles in the flue gas to undergo secondary combustion, increasing the thermal efficiency by at least 20% compared to the previous blueprint! And this... a spiral-shaped swirling flue! My goodness, how precise must the angle and length have been calculated to maximize the residence time of the high-temperature flue gas inside the furnace! This... this is simply a genius design!"
Other veteran technicians also gathered around, their heads crammed together.
"And here, the hollow core... with its own scale filtration system? This... this not only heats water, but also filters out impurities in the water beforehand, extending the lifespan of the furnace and heating pipes! Team Leader Su, this... this..."
They had all seen the blueprints for the most advanced industrial boilers during the Soviet aid period, but compared to this, it was like primitive graffiti!
The thermal circulation furnace depicted in this drawing has completely surpassed all their previous imaginations.
It is not only suitable for small spaces such as border outposts, but its modular design can also be scaled up proportionally and applied to military auditoriums, hospital wards, and even local schools and factory workshops!
This is not just a stove; it is clearly a complete technical solution that can change the heating landscape of the entire Tibetan region and even the whole country.
Such an exquisite industrial drawing was actually designed by this young, fair-skinned girl.
They had dedicated their lives to research and met countless geniuses, but almost all of those who could design something that would change the industrial landscape were men. There had never been a single woman who could earn their complete admiration and respect.
"With these blueprints, let alone experts from Beijing, even if the Emperor himself came, we'd still win!" Engineer Lu straightened up, his old face flushed with excitement.
"Damn it!" An old craftsman with calloused hands slammed his pipe on the corner of the table, stood up abruptly, and patted his chest. "Team Leader Su, just give the order! If you tell us to go east, we'll never go west! We have to get this back!"
"Yes! Fight them back!"
"Let them see that our Tibetan technical personnel are not just sitting around doing nothing!"
Su Tang nodded in satisfaction and calmly began to assign tasks: "Engineer Lu, you are in charge of leading the master craftsmen to be responsible for the firing of the furnace core. The clay formula is here. Follow the proportions strictly, not a bit off. Engineer Huo and Engineer Fang, you two are responsible for the precision assembly of the secondary combustion chamber and the hollow water jacket. All welding points and interfaces must be perfectly sealed."
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison, their voices shaking the rooftops. The previous dejection vanished, replaced by soaring enthusiasm.
...
The competition rules have been finalized, and the competition will last for three days.
Taking advantage of his position, Zhou Huai'an specially allocated the best-equipped Workshop No. 3 to Gao Dongliang's expert group. It was fully equipped with lathes, milling machines, and welding machines, and they were also assigned over a dozen of their most skilled young workers as assistants. The stated reason was to allow the experts to guide their work without any worries.
After receiving the "basic version" of the blueprints provided by Su Tang, Gao Dongliang immediately convened a meeting with the team members.
He slammed the flawed blueprint on the table, pointed at the structure with his pointer, and began to criticize it with vehement indignation:
"Comrades, look at this! This flue design is so convoluted and nonsensical! The hot air is trapped inside and can't escape. Isn't this just ridiculous? And this combustion chamber, its structure is so rudimentary, it can't even burn the coal properly! This is a typical example of amateurish thinking, wildly imaginative, and it hasn't undergone any systematic study of thermodynamics at all!"
Several young experts behind him echoed his sentiments.
"What the senior engineer said is true. With this design, the thermal efficiency can exceed 40%, which is already the best we can hope for."
"I think it's because the conditions in the border areas are poor and they've never seen anything good. They relied on some woman who appeared out of nowhere to make this mess, and they're treating it like a treasure. Our visit this time can be considered as providing technical assistance."
