Volume 20 Chapter 138 The Solar Furnace
Volume 20, Chapter 138: Solar Furnace
After communicating with Noreen, I finally understood how this small model was reduced to such a small size. 【-】In fact, I overcomplicated the problem.
Generally speaking, it is difficult to shrink a mechanical system, but the little sun in front of you is not a mechanical system. In fact, the mechanical system cannot produce such weird things. After Jiaha and Nolin's joint explanation, I finally understood that this little sun is actually a special application of magic theory. Anyway, the theory is very complicated. I didn't understand it all, but compared to Hong Yue and Ying. With an expression that I don’t understand at all, I still feel a little bit proud. At least I understand a little bit, which is enough to brag about.
Anyway, this little sun is a very special kind of magic, produced by a set of extremely complex magic arrays. The way it works is roughly like this. First, the magic circle is made and installed in place. During this process, the system will not react in any way. Then, what we have to do is to input energy into it. This process feels like charging a battery. The difference is that ordinary battery charging has limits, but this thing is almost unlimited. Yes, you heard it right, this thing can be charged with almost unlimited energy. Because it uses its own energy to restrain its own explosion, no matter how much energy you charge into it, theoretically speaking, this thing will not collapse on its own. but……
But what comes after is usually important, and this time is no exception. This small sun-like power system can be charged infinitely, which is theoretically proven. Although I don't know exactly how to prove it, Ling seems to understand it after reading it, and she also said that the design is very exquisite, so I will tentatively believe that the theory is correct. However, even if it is correct in theory, it is usually impossible to achieve the theoretical value in practice. This system is obviously no exception.
When you charge the little sun, it will start to stabilize itself simultaneously, and this process actually consumes energy. In other words, this thing is also releasing energy simultaneously during the charging process, and, Because this system will continue to consume energy at a faster rate as its total energy increases, and the speed at which it can absorb energy is limited by the materials used to make the magic circle. Therefore, there is actually a limit value, that is, when the little sun is charged to this value, your charging speed will be equal to the system energy loss speed, which means that you can no longer charge energy from this point on. . Of course, you can increase the input, but this will cause the output to increase simultaneously, and what's worse is that increasing the input will overload the magic circle, and then determine when it will be completely burned out based on the amount of energy you input in excess.
Of course, although there is a theoretical limit, this limit is actually meaningless to us, because even if this limit is smaller than infinity, it is still an astronomical number. Anyway, we will not do it once Just charge that much.
In fact, the value that is really meaningful to us should be the energy consumption rate. As I said, this thing will change the speed of natural energy loss according to the amount of its own energy. We charge it to provide power for our equipment, not to let it drain naturally. Besides, everything charged in is It is magic energy. Except for the collectors in our guild who can collect some, most of it needs to rely on expensive resources such as magic crystals for consumption and filling. In other words, the natural energy loss of these small suns is equivalent to Burn money, the faster it is lost the faster it will burn. Therefore, for economic reasons, we must find the best ratio between the best performance and the speed of capital consumption, so that in the future we can say that the Little Sun will only fill up to this ratio and then stop filling. This is the best price-performance ratio The highest choice.
After testing, Norin and the others finally discovered that when the energy injected into the system at one time is less than a thousand tons of standard liquefied magic crystal steam, the energy loss rate of this system can be so small that it is less than the magic power consumption of maintaining a lighting spell. However, once the charging amount exceeds one thousand tons of standard liquefied magic crystal steam, then the consumption rate will suddenly increase by more than a hundred times, and then if the charging amount exceeds ten thousand tons of standard liquefied magic crystal steam, then this natural The loss rate will increase by more than a hundred times and then increase by more than a hundred times. Taking into account this unstable increase characteristic, the limit charging capacity we set is one thousand tons of standard liquefied magic crystal steam. Any more will not be cost-effective. Fortunately, this amount is already quite large. Basically, even if a spacecraft is in full combat mode, this energy is enough for her to fight continuously day and night for several weeks. Of course, the spacecraft will definitely not participate in such a high-intensity battle, so the actual consumption rate is far from that fast. Calculated this way, this maintenance time is actually quite long.
After understanding the above theory, you can understand how this small spacecraft is miniaturized. Because the energy of the little sun itself rushes in from the outside, you can make any magic circle you want before charging it.
In fact, the maximum amount of energy charged by the small sun has nothing to do with the size of the magic circle. In other words, the magic circle in this small spacecraft can theoretically charge the same amount as the magic circle of the large small sun driving the spacecraft in front of us. energy of. Of course, this is still a theoretical value, but the actual situation is that the smaller the magic array, the slower the charging speed must be, because the too thin magic pipe cannot carry the charging speed too fast, so the actual limit value of the small magic array must be Smaller than the large magic circle. But no matter what, the operation of the small magic circle is actually no different from the big magic, and our guild actually has a dedicated magic circle engraving factory.
That's right, it's not the magic circle maker who makes the magic circle, but the assembly line that produces the magic circle. Among them is a super-precise engraver specially prepared for special magic arrays. This thing uses part of the principle of Ermenis' real mirror magic to copy the magic array through the mirror method, and this device does not need to copy the entity. As long as you input the data, the machine can automatically copy the magic circle you want. And because of the use of mirror magic, there is no limit to the size of the copied object in theory. As long as you have small enough data, it can complete a small enough magic circle. Of course, considering that there are no dust-free vacuum workshops, electronic adsorption probes, and multi-axis remote-controlled micro-manipulators and other key equipment in the game, if you have to carve a nano-scale magic circle, you have to do all the work. Players who know how to do this hold their breath with the NPC and look for the magic circle preparations on the floor with a microscope. After all, at that level, you won’t know where it will go when you take a breath, so even if you get something like that out, it’s useless. Moreover, since this device for copying the magic circle is also subject to many restrictions, it is simply a dream to use it to replace the g. This thing can only copy the magic circle.
Anyway, with the help of the strong technical strength of our guild, Norin and the others finally easily created such a miniature sun that was only the size of a mung bean. Then they used a piece of magic crystal as energy to input it, and then used A shell was carved out of wood and installed, and the spacecraft model in front of me was born.
"In other words, you can actually reduce this power device to any size?" I asked Noreen in surprise after understanding the characteristics of this thing.
Noreen nodded and said: "Thanks to the magic array replicator. Although we can't shrink the mechanical parts, we can shrink the magic array almost infinitely, and this solar furnace is made of the magic array, so in theory we can Create a nearly infinitely small solar furnace. Of course, the solar furnace is a special case, because even after it is shrunk, its input and output energy is still quite large, enough to meet the needs of most of our power equipment, but most other magic array devices, in After the size is reduced, the output power will also be reduced simultaneously, so if you want to rely on the superposition of small magic arrays to achieve the purpose of increasing the attributes of the equipment, that is actually an act that you don't want to try."
I waved my hand and said: "Although I'm not an expert, I do know a bit about the basic theory. There is an optimal ratio between the size and density of the magic circle. It's not that denser is better. You don't need to remind me about this. I just want to make sure of this. Can you install the Solar Furnace into the mobile angel?"
"In fact, we have already tested it, and Sister Rose has agreed to the costume change plan."
"So fast?"
"Well, there is a modified sample over here." Norin said and waved outside, and one of the two mobile Angels guarding the door came over immediately.
To be honest, I really didn’t expect that the two mobile angel guards at the door were actually modified ones, but you can’t blame me. After all, there is almost no change in the appearance of this thing before and after the modification. No one would have been able to do it if they hadn’t been warned in advance. Found a change in them.
"Quick, quick, open the armor for me to see." I immediately gave the order as soon as I saw the mobile Angel approaching. The Mobile Angel's orders to me, the president, were naturally carried out immediately, but after he opened the armor, what I saw was an old-fashioned liquefied magic crystal steam power core. "Huh? Isn't this the same core that uses liquefied magic crystal steam?"
Noreen knew I would ask, so when I asked, she ordered the mobile angel to close the armor and enter defense mode. Then the mobile angel immediately closed the armor and put its left hand in front of the body. The sword is held diagonally behind the back in the right hand. However, just after he completed this posture, he saw an opening suddenly opened on the outside of the guy's left forearm, and then a hexagonal metal piece popped out and unfolded instantly like a huahua. An orange-red one was coming. The small sun that was slowly rotating and emitting electric shocks from time to time was currently suspended in the center of the open hexagon, and it was still emitting circles of orange-red energy waves outwards. .
"This, this, this...could this be...an energy shield?"
