    At the Beijing Mechanical Research Institute, Zhu Houzhao brought Liu Jin to his own laboratory with familiarity. Here, he had a research team of more than a hundred people to help take charge of and study the machines that Zhu Houzhao wanted to study.

    "Old Liu, look, this is the steam cultivator I developed. It is very powerful and domineering. I gave it a very awesome name, called the General Cultivator!"

    Zhu Houzhao pointed to a steam cultivator parked in an open space and introduced it to Liu Jin very proudly.

    ""

    Liu Jin was speechless when he heard what Zhu Houzhao said about the General's plowing machine, but he still observed it carefully with interest.

    The entire steam cultivator is naturally far different from some cultivators of later generations, but some prototypes can still be seen. The core is still the steam engine, and a special large plow is dragged behind it. The steam engine drives it forward and drags the plow to plow the land.

    At the same time, the design of the steam engine is similar to that of later generations of steam engines, and the structure is basically the same. A large boiler plus a piston, the piston does work to generate power.

    "It's awesome. Look at this plow. It has six plowing surfaces, which is equivalent to six plows plowing the land at the same time. That is to say, the current steam engine is not powerful enough. Otherwise, more plowing surfaces can be added to it. All of a sudden  Cultivate more land.¡±

    Zhu Houzhao knocked the plow of the cultivator and introduced it very proudly.

    "How much power can the largest steam engine have now?"

    When Liu Jin heard this, he quickly asked.

    The loss of steam engines is actually very serious, and the thrust generated by steam is actually quite limited, far inferior to internal combustion engines and electric motors.

    But in this era, this steam engine is definitely the most advanced and awesome thing, but power is still very critical.

    If the power is not strong enough, its practicality will be greatly limited. For example, steam trains and ships definitely require high-power steam engines to drive them.

    In addition, this steam cultivator actually requires a high-horsepower steam engine to drive it. Plowing the land is a laborious task, especially if you want to plow the land deeply, you will need high horsepower.

    "The largest steam engine now has twelve horsepower."

    After hearing the news, Ren Siheng, who hurried over, quickly replied.

    He is the owner of the Jingcheng Machinery Factory and the person in charge of the Jingcheng Machinery Research Institute. Now his main work and energy are on the research, improvement, application and promotion of steam engines.

    "Twelve horsepower is pretty good."

    When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately nodded slightly. Twelve horsepower, this power can be said to be very powerful.

    "It is not difficult to increase the power of a steam engine. What is really difficult is its stability and reliability. The stability and reliability of the steam engines we currently manufacture need to be improved."

    "In addition, the conversion efficiency between the power of the steam engine is too low, which is also a direction we need to continuously improve in the future. The same is true for the conversion between mechanical power."

    When it comes to steam engines, Ren Siheng has endless things to say. He is an expert in this field and has been studying steam engines for a long time. He is very familiar with the situation of steam engines.

    "Take your time, don't rush~"

    "The key to slow work is to work carefully, to summarize more, to discover more, to explore more, to find out the deficiencies, and to constantly experiment with new methods to solve these deficiencies. Over time, we can always create more and more powerful products.  machine."

    Liu Jin smiled and encouraged.

    Machine research and scientific progress are actually the same. What is required is continuous exploration and exploration over many years and generations to make progress, and then slowly accumulate, and finally usher in leaps and bounds of development and breakthroughs.

    "I heard that this steam cultivator is starting to sell out?"

    Liu Jin then changed the topic to the sales of steam cultivators.

    "Yes, the steam cultivator developed by His Highness is now selling very well. The orders are so full that our Beijing Machinery Factory can no longer produce it."

    Ren Siheng nodded and said: "At the beginning, it was very difficult to sell our steam cultivator. No one was willing to spend more than one hundred taels of silver to buy our steam cultivator."

    ¡°Later, we thought of some ways and held some promotion activities. At the same time, we rented some cultivators at land prices for people to use.¡±

    "The effect is very good. When everyone sees the steam?? More efficient machines, steam-powered looms and spinning machines would surely be popular.

    "This is indeed a headache for us at the moment, because the stability of our machines is not very high and they often break down, and it is also very troublesome to repair, so we are also worried about how to solve this problem."

    When Ren Siheng heard this, he nodded solemnly.

    The emergence of the steam engine has brought great power to everyone, but also brought new tests. The stability of the steam engine is an urgent problem that needs to be solved. At the same time, if it breaks down, how to repair it quickly is also an important issue.

    In order to solve these problems, Ren Siheng and his entire research institute team have also done a lot of research, which has damaged brain cells. At present, they still have not found a good way to solve these problems.

    ps: To solve this problem, it seems that industrialization and standardized production are needed~ (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
