Chapter 206 Advantages
Gao Changfeng, Da Biao and others were discussing heatedly. Apparently, Qingye Automobile's wasteful behavior made them feel that this design plan was very weird.
However, they don’t know that the cost of this system is still at a controllable level.
The cost of the power control system, micro generator and electric motor is similar to that of ordinary hybrid vehicles.
However, lead-acid batteries are very cheap . Even if a sulfur dioxide purifier is added, the cost is much cheaper than lithium batteries and ternary composite batteries.
The cost of micro gas turbines, exhaust gas and heat recovery systems, and sound insulation layers is actually not that high.
It is mainly due to the low-cost components brought by biosynthesis technology that the cost of the micro gas turbine, exhaust gas and heat recovery system, and sound insulation layer combined is only about 60% to 70% of that of the same gasoline and diesel engine.
The thermal efficiency of the micro gas turbine is 50%, and the exhaust gas waste heat recovery system can recover 38% of the energy, which is equivalent to an increase of 9.5% on the basis of the thermal efficiency of 50%, reaching 59.5%.
Also, don’t forget that this type of waste gas and waste heat recovery can be recycled continuously. Although after each cycle, the energy recovered before is 9.5% of 9.5%, and so on.
But this blessing will continue to accumulate.
The thermal efficiency of 59.5% is simply terrible.
Perhaps private cars don't need to worry too much about engine thermal efficiency.
However, for transportation companies, the thermal efficiency of 59.5% is 14.5% to 19.5% higher than the 40% to 45% thermal efficiency of diesel engines currently used in transportation vehicles.
With the same fuel, a diesel car can run 40 to 45 kilometers, while a gas turbine hybrid car can run 59.5 kilometers.
If the transportation distance is expanded to hundreds or thousands of kilometers, the gap will become more obvious.
In addition, the equipment cost does not significantly exceed that of diesel vehicles.
Aoba Group will certainly not continue to use diesel and gasoline engine equipment, unless there is a specific requirement to use them, otherwise all equipment will be replaced with gas turbine hybrid power.
For a company, even a one percent increase or decrease in cost can have a huge impact.
What’s more, it is such a huge improvement.
The best option is to take advantage of the fact that the ship is small and easy to turn around and quickly switch to hybrid power with gas turbines, combined with the technology of the Sapiens company that can produce methane on its own, to save oil and keep it as a strategic reserve.
Gao Changfeng and others did not know that the precision components of the Zhiren Company had already achieved low-cost large-scale mass production.
That's why they think the designers at the car factory are crazy.
After a while, the bus arrived at the food street in the commercial district.
Get off the car.
All kinds of aromas hit me in the face.
This food street is actually also the employee canteen for the entire Feiji Town. In order to meet the daily needs of more than 60,000 people, there are quite a few restaurants.
Although they are all subsidiaries of Qingye Catering Company, these restaurants are competitors. With the consulting company as a key figure, their service, hygiene and food are all very good.
According to the regulations of the headquarters, the ratio is one restaurant + two snack bars for every thousand people.
There are 63 restaurants and 126 snack bars in Feiji Town, employing more than 2,400 employees.
Gao Changfeng felt very uncomfortable at first, but after living there for more than half a year, he gradually got used to it and even became accustomed to it.
There is no private enterprise other than the Aoba Group in the entire Feiji Town.
Not to mention snack bars, the Aoba Group also has housekeeping services, gyms, tattoo parlors, beauty salons, photo studios, laundries, flower shops, and funeral homes.
As an employee of the Aoba Group, in an employee town like Feiji Town, you basically meet colleagues wherever you go.
After walking for a few minutes, Da Biao and his group arrived at a restaurant called "Happy Mushroom".
"Let's order!"
None of the five people asked for others' opinions, but each ordered his own.
This is to avoid being suspected of bribing colleagues and superiors. Although you can write a report to explain it clearly, the problem is very troublesome and the person who was invited probably won't be willing to write a report to explain just for a meal.
Therefore, employees usually go on a AA basis when dining together. Plus, the entire town is populated by the company's employees, so over time, the culture of going on a AA basis for dining has been formed.
Happy Mushroom specializes in mushroom dishes. At present, mushrooms such as Alstroemeria, Morel, Red Mushroom, Agaricus bisporus, Pleurotus eryngii, Shiitake and Enoki mushroom have all been cultivated on a large scale.
When Gao Changfeng saw the morels and chicken mushrooms on the menu, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Currently, the mass production technology for artificial cultivation of these two edible fungi is only available in Luzon and Hongsawadi. The Hongsawadi mushroom cultivation base was built by the Sapiens Company in Luzon.
However, there are companies in China that, taking advantage of the news about large-scale , are hyping up their own cultivation technology in various places.
I heard that thousands of farmers were deceived by these companies and invested in so-called morel and chicken mushroom cultivation greenhouses.
These days, he has been using channels such as hometown associations to report this information to his hometown. It is a good thing if he can reduce the number of farmers who are deceived.
In fact, many Chinese working in Hongsawadi are sending messages to their hometowns about this kind of thing, so Gao Changfeng doesn't need to be too cautious.
Those planting companies that hype the market are extremely evil-minded.
After all, both Alpinia ternata and Morchella edulis are special edible fungi, and their cultivation requires special high-yield strains, special supporting facilities, and special techniques.
This kind of technology and requirements obviously cannot be easily grown in ordinary greenhouses, and ordinary farmers simply do not have the ability to meet the planting conditions.
Previously, Gao Changfeng took advantage of his vacation to visit a mushroom farm near Mandalay.
The cultivation of Acanthopanax and Morel must be carried out in a specific factory. The investment of a complete set of supporting equipment alone requires several million yuan, and there are also various special culture media.
He also heard that the core raw materials of the culture medium were highly confidential at the Sapiens Company and could only be airlifted from Luzon every month, and there was no production workshop set up in Hongsawadi.
It’s not that there are no Chinese companies going to Luzon to seek cooperation.
However, Zhiren Company requires that the technology be kept confidential and does not agree to technology transfer. Even for cooperation on non-core technologies, the cooperation conditions are very harsh, resulting in no company successfully obtaining authorization.
In name, the reason why Sapiens agreed to set up a factory in Hongsavadi was actually to obtain a stable supply channel for new antibiotics.
After a while, Da Biao and others had ordered their dishes, and Gao Changfeng also quickly ordered a few of his favorite foods.
At this moment, several employees at the next table were eating and discussing in a low voice the recent rumors about a mysterious plane on the Internet.
Gao Changfeng was secretly delighted that he finally had the opportunity to bring up this topic.
He said calmly, "The plane mentioned on the Internet should be the MiG-25 imported from Russia, right?"
"That's true, but is this antique really worth equipping?" Da Biao looked skeptical.
However, Maung Yumu still had a bit of partiality as a local. He picked out several advantages of the MiG-25 and said, "The MiG-25 has a good speed and its short legs are not a problem. It is suitable for border defense. The key is that it is cheap."
Haha... Da Biao laughed dryly, obviously feeling a little disapproving in his heart.
Perhaps before the 1980s, the MiG-25 was indeed good.
But now all kinds of fourth-generation aircraft are flying in the sky, and fifth-generation aircraft are about to come out. In Da Biao's opinion, the performance of the MiG-25 has no advantages at all.
Even Gao Changfeng thought so.
After all, Hongsavadi's aviation industry foundation is too poor. In the eyes of outsiders, being able to successfully produce the MiG-25 is already the limit of Hongsavadi.
