From troll tribes to elf empires

Chapter 26 Inspiration brought by the capture of Smilodon

‘How does a refrigerator reduce the pressure of high-temperature and high-pressure liquids’

'When I was playing with water when I was a kid, if I opened the valve and used my fingers to block the pressure difference between the inside and outside of a part of the pipe, the water would splash out. This process should be considered a 'decompression', right?'

'So, by 'throttling', the pressure can be reduced? Well, let's call it a 'pressure reducing valve'.'

'So, the process should be: low temperature and low pressure steam-compression zone-high temperature and high pressure steam-heat dissipation zone-medium temperature and high pressure liquid-pressure reducing valve-low temperature and low pressure semi-liquid and semi-steam-refrigeration zone-low temperature and low pressure steam-compression zone, that is, compression/

Condensation/decompression/evaporation, four refrigeration cycle processes.'

‘In addition, there is refrigerant. What does it seem to be called Freon? It seems to be an outdated thing, and I only remember the name.’

'Then let's first think about what characteristics the refrigerant should have.'

'First of all, the chemical properties must be stable, preferably non-toxic and non-corrosive;'

'Secondly, considering the volume of the compression zone, the cooling capacity per unit volume of the refrigerant must be relatively high;'

‘Again, the density should be small to reduce the working loss in the compression area;’

"I thought of something, so I'm going back first." Then he turned around and left in a hurry.

The great witch doctor seemed to have been influenced by what the witch doctor said. He carefully observed Blade Ya's mental state and carefully invited him.

"Okay, let's go take a look."

When Blade Ya and the others arrived, they had already been moved to the basement entrance not far from the witch doctor's courtyard.

"The reason why our 'plant system' spells can grow quickly is that within a certain set of runes, we can definitely separate out the runes related to 'photosynthesis'"

The three witch doctors sighed with worry, but did not try to persuade them. They just stayed and continued their unfinished work in silence.

"Without metal mines and rubber, we can't even build a basic steam engine, let alone other things."

The Chinese witch doctor dusted himself off and complained.

Returning from meditation, recalling the 'refrigeration cycle' simulated in his mind before, Blade Ya said softly,

"Materials and energy are the biggest obstacles."

"Vine.Material Spell Photosynthesis"

"Magic transformation, plant synthesis preparation; starting position, preparation three centimeters in front of the palm; standard specification shaping, target toughness 130%, hardness 120% preparation; front, standard speed extension preparation"

Blade Ya quickly entered meditation and began to imagine the working mode of the compression zone in his mind.

'The evaporative cooler and the heat dissipation condenser fin should be similar, and the heat conduction capacity must also be considered.'

He lowered his body, pointed his palms at the ground, and chanted,

‘Throttle valve, hourglass-shaped pipe and capillary tube should be enough’

Standing outside the door were the big witch doctor and the two middle witch doctors with tired faces.

"After the vine spell is cast, the vines will burst out of the ground. We can control their growth speed and direction according to our needs, and even the hardness and toughness of the vines are also within the control scope of the spell."

‘Finally, the heat conduction and heat release capabilities should be high.’

Blade Ya took it into his hand and slowly felt the various characteristics of the vine.

"Similarly, the controllability of toughness, hardness, etc. can also mean that during the 'shaping' stage, related rune groups are hidden..."

"Plants are the most direct users of solar energy in simple cognition."

"If we can dig out the details of the rune groups related to photosynthesis, toughness, hardness, etc., instead of just using the 'Plant Shaping' rune group in general as we do now, the precision of the control will be greatly improved.

.”

Seeing Blade Ya coming over, the old witch doctor pointed to the container that was half the size of a house and said,

"Smooth the base so they can push in."

"The two witch doctors are back? Are they not injured?"

'The heat dissipation condenser fin is a bit difficult, and the heat conduction capacity must be considered; the shape is simple, isn't it just a fence?'

"It's not that we were injured. It's just that the beast was too cunning and we spent too much energy trying to catch it."

Hurrying back to the meditation room, Blade Ya couldn't wait to sort out the thoughts that had just passed by.

What caught his eye was a beast that was relatively similar to the saber-toothed tiger in his previous life. However, it was now tightly trapped by vines and seemed to be dazed. It was snoring and falling asleep without any domineering attitude.

‘The compressor is the most complicated, with a rectangular parallelepiped cylinder, a compression piston attached to the wall, and two air inlet and outlet ports at the top.’

The moment he saw the saber-tooth tiger, Saba didn't feel much shock. Even though it was a super monster that was as tall as his chest and four meters long without the tail, at this moment, he didn't seem to be so shocked when he saw the vines.

For a moment, the thoughts that crossed my mind became more attractive.

Blade Ya, who had never climbed out of the bottleneck, did not refuse the witch doctor's kindness and followed him directly.

Blade Ya immediately put down the fur in his hand and only said:

The old witch doctor, the only one present before, seemed to have just cast a spell to widen the entrance to the basement, and was now giving low-level strength, endurance and other benefits to the warriors responsible for the transportation.

Judging from the appearance of the soldiers at this moment, it seems that they are planning to lock them in the basement together with the containers.

"Once the level of precision reaches a certain critical point, there will be more things that can be done."

'Compression area, let me think about what the working status should be like.'

'em feels useless. The only thing that can be easily obtained now is water. Did anyone use water as a refrigerant in the past life? By the way, carbon dioxide can also be obtained relatively easily. If other problems can be solved, let's use these two experiments first.

.'

"As long as I can control all parts of the plant, from characteristics to appearance, to grow the way I want, wouldn't it be the so-called fully automatic plant refrigerator?"

At this moment, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts, and Saba opened the door in confusion and looked outside.

Here, the movement from the cage can be vaguely heard.

"vine."

He carefully stretched out his hand, lifted up the fur covering it, and took a peek inside along with the light.

,,,,,,,,

Smilodon was kept in a square container covered with animal skin.

At the end of the chanting, under the interaction between the inside and outside, a vine broke out of the ground at a slow speed and stretched in the predetermined direction.

"Photosynthetic power pool, hydraulic vapor compression system, leaf condensation heat dissipation structure, plant vein decompression fine flow channel, tree trunk cavity cooling chamber"

"It's no big problem. Do you want to come and take a look? You haven't seen a Sabretooth yet, have you?"

In the meditation, except for the "compressor" part which is too complicated and only a rough outline, the other parts are basically logically self-consistent.

Blade Ya nodded and used magic to make the bottom of the cage extremely smooth. Then he stepped forward and touched it. He felt that it was on par with the ice surface, and then he was satisfied.

"This is just the starting point. It seems that the plant industry can also imagine wood that can conduct electricity, wood that can withstand high temperatures, and wood that is harder than steel?"

"Yes, I was too rigid in my previous life. Even though there was a rich treasure in front of me, I still insisted on the methods of my previous life."

"It can't be said that if you don't think about the past life, how can you effectively use the 'treasures' you have in this world?"

"So, the two should complement each other, and we must continue to pursue knowledge of past lives."
