Chapter 23 New source of power

“Coether,” Roland said

Anna’s finger pressed on the iron sea the interface at a speed visible to the eyes

“Reduce the firepower and start again with the reverse side”

Anna nodded her head and did it once ether at a 90-degree angle

Roland carefully examined the interface and found that the effect was just as he had iined – a perfect ithout any flaws With a little polishi+ng, the fluid traces of molten iron could rub off There was no difference with atechnique

“Very good, Miss Anna, simply excellent!” Roland excitedly exclaiether”

“What is it? An iron… bucket?”

“No, it is a cylinder,” corrected Roland

“Cylinder?” repeated Anna, puzzled

“Yes, the cylinder can be filled with air,” Roland pointed to another square piece of iron, “Do you see the sh that small hole, and push the piston Well, and since the piston diahtly smaller than the cylinder’s diameter, it can move freely inside “

Even the genius Anna, in front of so many unknoords, had question marks above her head,“these… cylinder, piston and so on, what do they do?”

“They are needed for the purpose ofa machine that can move automatically”

The steaht the first industrial revolution, it was the driving force behind hu humans and animals in the workforce

It was a scheineer was faer version of a kettle After boiling the water, the produced steam would be induced into the cylinder There, it would push a piston that is connected to a pole Like this, thery

The principle was very simple, but it did not mean that it was easy toof the cylinder and piston, as well as the production of the gas pipeline Without proper ,a usable cylinder would only be a dream

However, with the help of Anna’s ability, he couldskills

Afterfour iron plates of the sarind it Then the iron plates would be welded together at a 90-degree angle by Anna Like this, it was possible to get a highly stiff square cylinder With the help of Anna, he didn’t need to use the traditional production process Theycreated first a tubular boring machine, and then post processed it to create a circular cylinder The other big parts, too, could be divided into sether In this way, it was even possible to produce them in a small workshop In this way, they were able to produce all of the coine

In fact, prior to the invention of welding, people could only rely on connecting s Since the internal cylinder must be smooth, normal connection methods obviously couldn’t do this

The only proble special, it needed to be heated up until it was red, and then the groove could be haht shape; this was also the un barrel Later the barrel just needed straightening and counterbored rifling etc, nothing that was too complicated

The problem was that it was impossible for Roland to call the blacksarden, since it was still not known that Anna hadn’t been executed Blacksths, but in a desperate atteht do it, under Roland’s own command

After waiting for three days, Roland finally had the first steaarden

“This is the powerfulat the strange machine, but he had affiric Each of the iron plates were personally molded by himself, and to him, it only looked like a sealed furnace It was impossible for the devil to have any interest in it

But how could it move a pile of lump iron upwards? It looked very clumsy and had no feet, was it possible that it could fly?

But in Roland’s eyes, this seely simpleon the shoulders of giants, he naturally did not need to invent the Newcoine, instead he built an ih-pressure stea rod and a slide valve To MakE it better than ines, the key laid in some of newer innovative ideas

“Soon you will understand it”

Roland poured a bucket of water into the steanite the firewood

Tenboil Soon, a creaking sound could be heard from the cylinder Roland kneas the sound of the thermal expansion of the cylinder The thin iron piston’s expansion was far greater than the cylinder’s and it would eventually press firainst the cylinder wall

“Isn’t this a water boiler? I did not think it would really be a furnace,” Carter muttered
