Chapter 1583 Black Technology: Wireless Power Transmission Technology
In the high-level main base, many functions have been significantly improved. When Cai Ruichen saw the last one, he was taken aback for a moment.
The advanced base vehicle will open up wireless power transfer technology to commanders.
It was just a few short words, but Cai Ruichen's mood suddenly became extremely excited. This kind of excitement was not there even when he was just confirmed to be promoted to a high-level authority.
Because this technology, in Cai Ruichen's opinion, is really powerful. He never thought that the base would actually open up this kind of sky-defying technology to himself, and it's not a black technology that can't be seen.
This is an advanced technology that can be used on a global scale aboveboard. Wireless power transmission technology is a technology that uses radio technology to transmit electrical energy, invented by electrical engineer Nikola Tesla.
And Tesla is indeed a unparalleled master of science and technology, he is the inventor of alternating current. Not only for his achievements in magnetism and engineering, Tesla is also considered to have contributed to various fields such as robotics, ballistics, information science, nuclear physics and theoretical physics. Including the Internet is also one of its contributions.
Unfortunately, so far, due to the loss of data, it is still in the experimental stage.
Technically, there is no essential difference between wireless power transmission technology and the transmitting and receiving technology used in radio communication.
But the former is specially used to transmit energy, not information attached to energy. The biggest difficulty of wireless power transmission technology is that anyone can use the receiving device to obtain electrical energy from the atmosphere.
In order to facilitate the collection of fees, wireless power transmission uses microwave or even laser transmission with good orientation. In theory, the shorter the wavelength of radio waves, the better the orientation and the smaller the dispersion.
Twenty years ago, a special experiment was conducted in the Gran Basang Canyon in the southwestern part of Reunion Island in Africa: a 200-watt light bulb was lit.
Around the light bulb, there are neither wires nor plugs and sockets. The experimenter, Guy Piniolet, is an engineer engaged in space research.
Guy Pignolet's experiment is to use microwaves for long-distance wireless power transmission. The electric energy generated by a generator is first converted into electromagnetic microwaves through a magnetron, and then the microwave beam is sent out by the microwave transmitter. light up. The success of this test is only the first step towards wireless power transmission.
In fact, this technology is not very perfect at present. Although there have been some breakthroughs in wireless power transmission technology, it is impossible for this breakthrough distance to be truly applied to all human beings without a few decades. things.
This is what Cai Ruichen is most excited about. With this technology, it means that future power transmission will no longer require any cables or lines to transmit power from the power station.
The most important thing is that this technology can also realize power transmission in collapsed space. Of course, this space does not mean two completely different worlds such as the present world and the wasteland, but the power transmission from the earth to the outside world.
And this technology is also being researched by various countries, and scientists are also researching this technology in the combat laboratory of the base.
At that time, Cai Ruichen didn't know that the base would give this technology to him when he had advanced authority.
Cai Ruichen tried to calm down his excitement, and asked the base: "What level can wireless power transmission technology achieve?"
Cai Ruichen, who had calmed down, was also eager to find out what level the base's technology had reached. After all, if it was an ordinary wireless power transmission technology, he would not need it at all.
Future Technology Group has already begun to prepare for the opening of wireless charging devices. This device allows personal mobile electronic devices to automatically connect and charge when they are close to wireless charging devices. No wires are needed, and no charging sockets are required from now on.
If it was just such a technology, the Future Technology Group would have already mastered it.
"Base wireless power transmission technology will cancel all wired power connections, and can directly transmit power to each unit. At the same time, all power stations' power will also be transmitted to the base and then transferred. The transmission distance can cover the whole world. It can also be transmitted to other planets other than Earth." The base replied.
"Will this technology cause any harm to the human body or the environment?" The function is very powerful, but Cai Ruichen also has to consider the harmfulness behind this technology.
"The commander is too worried. The harm is just the opposite. When transmitting power wirelessly on land, the transmitter and receiver are integrated with nature without damaging the environment.
In contrast, high-voltage transmission lines or solar panels can damage the environment. And the cost of wireless transmission is much lower than the cost of underground cable transmission, even lower than the cost of generating electricity with diesel generator sets.
The microwave beams used for wireless power transfer have an intensity of just 5 milliwatts per square centimeter, much less than the 100 milliwatts per square centimeter of sunlight. Therefore, microwave wireless power transmission is very safe, it will not ionize, and will not mutate the genes of surrounding organisms. Vegetables can even be grown under the microwave receiver. ' Base explained.
Hearing this, Cai Ruichen was also relieved, and continued to ask curiously: "This means that our warships will no longer need to develop their own power systems in the future, which can save the space and weight of the power systems, and make them more spacious. space?"
Cai Ruichen's idea is bold. All the warships of the Red Police Corps Navy are all electric propulsion. The power system generates electricity, and then the electricity drives the propellers forward, so there is no transmission shaft laid on the bottom of the ship.
If electricity can be directly transmitted wirelessly to any corner of the earth, then for warships, there is no need to install engines on warships, and it is enough to directly install batteries and propulsion systems.
"Theoretically speaking, this technology is completely achievable, and the warship can save a lot of space to improve the overall combat level of the warship, but there is a problem. Once the receiver on the warship fails or is hit, the Didn't the warship lose its source of power?" the base said.
When Cai Ruichen heard it, he also understood that the all-electric propulsion system combined with the global wireless power transmission technology looks very good, but there are still many problems. After all, it still has its own power system, so it feels more reliable.
But in any case, this is a very good idea. The ocean-going navy may not be suitable, but offshore defense warships are very suitable. They are active in the offshore, and they are not afraid of drifting at sea and not being able to return. (To be continued.)
