Chapter 1829 The difference between power systems
After knowing this, Fatty Gao thought it was very likely that it was true, Fatty Gao didn't think it was completely unfeasible. Litorio and the Roman ship girl would never deceive Veneto, but Veneto is an SSS-class historical warship rather than an SS-class historical warship. Because of the huge gap in strength, Fatty Gao felt that Veneto should have a way to solve this problem.
However, all opportunities cannot be put on Venetto himself. Gao Fatty also began to learn the knowledge of this power system when he had no choice but to optimize this power system. Gao Fatty needs to optimize this power system. This precedent of Roman Shipwoman and Litorio is ahead. Gao Fatty only needs to thoroughly study these things to effectively optimize Venetto's power system.
All warship power systems in this world are basically divided into two parts, one is the power source and the other is the work system. Of course, this is the name of this world. Because Gao Fatty was not a related professional before traveling through time, he only knew about these things. As for the specific name, he didn't know what the world's power source refers to the part that generates power. Most warship power sources in this world are boilers with a small part of diesel engines. The few submarines and some small warships that use diesel engines.
There are some differences in the work system. There are steam engines, steam turbines and electric motors. Among them, steam engines are steam-pushing pistons for work, steam turbines are steam-pushing turbines for work, electric motors are electric power for work, warships that use steam engines are not fast, they are relatively slow. In history, steam engines to steam turbines were an important change in the power of warships. The first one to use steam turbines in history was the United Kingdom. The first one to use steam turbines at 15,000 tons or above was the British epoch-making battleship. Before the Fearless battleship, all the main ships used steam engines. After that, the steam turbine became an important part of the power of the warship. Although it was replaced by gas turbines a lot before the trip, it still had a place. After all, nuclear power cannot be separated from steam turbines.
Electric motors are relatively special. Basically, only American warships have such special equipment. Historically, the United States used motors on many standard main ships and Lexington-class aircraft carriers. The principle is to boil water to obtain water vapor, use water vapor to drive the generator to obtain electricity, and drive the electric motor to rotate the propulsion shaft and propeller to generate propulsion power. This is the unique equipment of the main American warships for a long time. At this time, major European countries basically had a combination of boilers and steam turbines. The reason for the United States' special reason is not that the United States wanted to be so special, but that the United States could not complete the power system that used steam turbines at that time.
Venetto uses a combination of boilers and steam turbines. In this world, the main thing that Roman and Litorio want to replace is the boiler, because the problem is the boiler, and there is no problem with the steam turbine. The situation in Venetto is the same. The main thing to optimize in this aspect is the boiler. The transformation of the steam turbine is the same as normal, but the steam turbine cannot be replaced. According to Roman and Litorio's experience, the steam turbine is very qualified and does not need to be replaced.
However, the power system is very complicated, but Fatty Gao is basically doing things that cannot understand the drawings now. He will carefully survey and map the drawings of Veneto after this battle. Just refer to the experience of Litorio and the Roman ship girl. After all, it is not the same warship, Veneto must be different from Litorio and the Roman ship girl. Fatty Gao needs to customize a transformation plan for Veneto, but this experience has greatly inspired Fatty Gao.
During the previous renovation, Fatty Gao changed the equipment as a whole. Fatty Gao found that the equipment could also be carried out in sections, and the power system was only roughly divided into these two parts. In fact, the power system is very complicated. Not to mention that the ship girl had to process the transmission shaft himself every once in a while, and the transmission shaft was very difficult to process.
Fatty Gao felt that it was necessary to adjust his ship girl to optimize the equipment. However, this time, Venetto's statement did pour a basin of cold water on Fatty Gao, but Fatty Gao felt that this was no big deal. The problem with the power system of Veneto is that the quality of oil is extremely high. Maintenance and consumption are relatively high. The requirements for the ship girl are relatively high. Veneto is an excellent ship girl. As long as Veneto is ready to use such a power system sufficiently, there is no problem. After all, the Roman ship girl has used such a boiler for so many years and has not happened.
After this idea, Gao Fatty was constantly checking whether there could be any optimization aspects during the process of adjusting the supply of his other ship girls. However, Gao Fatty finally found that there were not many parts that could be optimized, because the power system is special, and most other equipment was not like this. The boiler and steam turbine of the power system can be regarded as two completely different equipment related. Both are important components of the power system. The function of the boiler is to boil water to provide water vapor. The steam turbine requires steam to push the turbine to do work. The boiler has no requirements for the steam turbine. After all, in history, steam turbines have always used steam engines before. For boilers, whether there is a steam turbine is the same.
The same is true for steam turbines. For steam turbines, as long as there is steam, it doesn't matter how this steam comes from. Before the trip, Gao Fatty changed the boiler with boiling water to a nuclear reactor. The steam turbine was just a change in performance and there was no essential difference between the steam turbine used by the Battleship of the Desperation.
