Chapter 195 Training
Aoba Motor's Chiang Mai branch, its engine research and development team, also tested new materials to manufacture micro gas turbines.

In fact, the application of micro gas turbines in automobiles still has to face some problems.

For example, the low thermal efficiency in the low-speed idling stage, the noise is too large, and the manufacturing cost is too high.

But in the final analysis, these problems are actually two problems, the problem of ideas and materials.

The engine research and development team of Aoba Motor Company did not use micro gas turbines as direct power, but adopted the idea of ​​hybrid power.

Gas turbines are directly used as direct power at high speeds, and electric power is used at medium and low speeds. At the same time, the high-speed operation of gas turbines is maintained to drive micro-generators to generate electricity and charge lead-acid batteries.

There is no need for lithium batteries, solid-state batteries, and ternary composite batteries. Safe and cheap lead-acid batteries are king.

In order to support lead-acid batteries, Aoba Automobile also opened a lead-acid battery factory, which specializes in the production of lead-acid batteries for automobiles. It also uses a sulfur dioxide purifier to eliminate sulfur dioxide emitted by lead-acid batteries.

The noise problem of gas turbines can actually be suppressed through design and equipped with sound insulation layers.

Finally, there is the issue of thermal efficiency of micro gas turbines. The reason why the thermal efficiency of micro gas turbines is not high is actually related to the inability to carry out multi-stage recycling of waste heat, which is the advantage of large gas turbines.

If a multi-stage thermal cycle is to be implemented in a micro gas turbine system, the cost will rise sharply.

How does Aoba Motors solve this problem?
In the final analysis, it is still a matter of materials.

Since the thermal efficiency of a single-stage cycle is not high, and the multi-stage cycle will cause the system to become complicated and costly, why not increase the pressure and speed?
Just like the supercritical power generation technology of thermal power plants.

And with the material support behind Homo sapiens, Aoba Motors is taking such a technical route.

Increase the combustion chamber pressure of the gas turbine, increase the intake air volume, and then increase the impeller speed to 3.5 revolutions per minute.

And this improvement can further reduce the size of the micro gas turbine.

After all, the improvement of thermal efficiency also means that the unit power has increased, and the power consumption of automobiles has been fixed in a range. Therefore, to supply the same power, the size of the new micro gas turbine must be further reduced.

The reduction in size also brings another benefit, that is, the noise will also be reduced.

Aoba Motor's gas turbine technology route is a hybrid power route that is equipped with various new technologies.

The high thermal efficiency of the gas turbine at high speed is used to charge the lead-acid battery, and the lead-acid battery on the vehicle does not need too much, and it is enough to run 50 kilometers once fully charged.

After all, this is a hybrid, and it can be charged anytime, anywhere. Equipping a large-capacity battery is a waste of resources.

……

Wu Haishen, the manager of the branch, listened to the reports of the engine R&D team, transmission R&D team, and transmission system R&D team.

Putting down the documents in his hand, he raised his glasses: "That is to say, at present, our various components are basically up to the standard?"

"Yes, we have no problem with the engine."

"The five types of transmissions can also be put into use." Guan Jianzhi asked with some hesitation: "Manager Wu, will the supply cost of these parts be too high?"

Wu Haishen took out another document and flipped through the parts quotations on it: "No! The overall cost has dropped by about 37%."

"What?" Guan Jianzhi looked like he had seen a ghost.

Immediately, the heads of other projects also started talking.

Apparently they thought that the part suppliers might be playing a shoddy game, cheating orders with low-priced high-quality samples first, and then reducing the supply.

After listening to everyone's discussion, Wu Haishen shook his head: "Don't worry! No one dares to play tricks on this kind of thing."

Wu Haishen, who is the manager of the spider web, knows that Haisnail New Material Company is a brother company and a part of Homo sapiens.

The reason why it can supply high-quality parts at low prices is because Aoba Group is its own company, and Haisnail will not lose money on the other hand.

After all, compared with traditional smelting, casting, and subtractive processing, new materials manufactured using biosynthesis technology not only reduce the number of links, but also reduce the production cost by a large margin.

This cost advantage must of course be utilized internally.

If it is supplied to outsiders, the price will definitely be higher than similar parts on the market.

Hearing Wu Haishen's assurance, although Guan Jianzhi and the others didn't believe it in their hearts, they still didn't dare to ask questions. Anyway, the production line must be inspected for quality.

In their hearts, they only hope that the parts suppliers have a conscience, and don't make it impossible for everyone to get off the stage in the end.

After an internal meeting, Aoba Motors Chiang Mai Branch started full-scale mass production.

……

At this time, Chiang Mai has almost become a construction site.

Six large automobile factories, several motorcycle factories, and a large supporting factory require hundreds of thousands of industrial workers.

Siam has a population of only 6617 million, and there is obviously a huge gap in labor demand for hundreds of thousands of industrial workers.

After all, Siam used to be an area dominated by agriculture. Although there were 12 years of compulsory education, and the internal education level was relatively good, they were generally high school level, and only a small number of college students.

In addition, Siam respects the Western-style education model and does not emphasize science and engineering.

Industrial workers not only need a certain degree of culture, but preferably college students or college students majoring in science and engineering.

It is obviously difficult for college students with a Western-style education to become industrial workers. Unless the other party is desperate, they would rather go to a foreign company or take a public exam than become an industrial worker.

Therefore, Sapiens still needs to find a way to solve this problem by itself.

The first construction company of Chiang Mai Group.

This company contracted the construction project of the Glory Automobile Factory of the Chiang Mai Group, and the company recruited a large number of young migrant workers.

Construction workers are divided into small teams, squadrons, and brigades for strict internal management.

Many squad leaders, squadron leaders, etc. are actually retired from the Thai army. These people have been remade, and scum has become soldiers, and those with improvement value have become new humans.

Shishan Shameng is a retired soldier. Since he had no bad deeds, he was absorbed as a new human being. He was trained at the Chiang Mai Transfer Training School for more than a month before he became the squadron leader of the construction company.

In order to adapt to the interpersonal relationship within the company, he also specially gave a Chinese name: Meng Shi.

At this time, he was checking the progress of the project when the intercom rang:

"Squadron leaders and above, please come to the manager's office for a meeting within half an hour..."

After doing it three times in a row, Meng Shi shouted to several team leaders: "Do it well, don't be lazy."

"understood!"

"Head, don't worry!"

Several small captains hurriedly replied.

As for Meng Shi, whether it is an ordinary construction worker or a small team leader, in fact, they all respect and fear him.

The main reason is that his style is too decent, not at all like the one who came out of the Thai army.

Meng Shi ignored his subordinates, but hurried to the office where the meeting was held.

More than a dozen squadron leaders, several brigade leaders, and several department heads arrived at the office one after another.

The manager was Wu Xinhe who came from Hongshawadi. When he saw that everyone was present, he went straight to the point:
"You guys need to be busy with your next work. The company has a plan to launch and needs your cooperation."

"Manager Wu, what's the plan?" Ba Kun asked.

"Look for yourselves! One copy per person." After Wu Xinhe finished speaking, he distributed a large pile of documents to everyone present.

When Meng Shi got the document, he couldn't wait to open it.

This is a plan for training industrial workers. Its core is very simple. It requires each construction team to set up a study class, select the part of the construction workers who are willing to learn and change jobs, and then conduct a comprehensive training for these people.

The training time is in the evening school mode, and the teachers in charge of the training are new human beings within the company. In addition, the automobile factory also dispatches a group of engineers and technicians as temporary training teachers.

As new humans, although Meng Shi and others had only undergone more than a month of training, and later spent free time to learn part of the knowledge independently, with the assistance of biochips, their cultural level is actually not bad.

"Do you need to graduate from high school?" Meng Shi frowned.

Wu Xinhe smiled and shook his head: "Otherwise? Do you think those college students will come to the assembly line?"

The others immediately reacted.

They are all from the past. There are many college students graduating from Siam every year. The problem is that the elite of these people have already gone to Sing Tao, Europe and the United States.

The rest of the group stayed in the big cities.

Although Chiang Mai is also the second largest city, the problem is that these college students generally hope to enter the fields of finance, management, IT, pharmaceuticals, design, education and medical care.

For construction, machinery, metallurgy, etc., which are hard and tiring, they will not consider them unless they have high wages.

Homo sapiens company is here to make money, not to distribute benefits, so cultivating talents by itself is the best choice at present.

The various construction companies under its umbrella are screening construction workers who are willing to endure hardships and stand hard work, and then set up internal evening schools and crash courses.

For the entire automobile industry in Chiang Mai Province, the hundreds of thousands of industrial workers that will be needed in the future can only be trained from these high school students in their teens and twenties.

Fortunately, Siam's basic education is not bad, and there are quite a lot of unemployed people, otherwise the gray entertainment industry would not be so developed.

Especially graduates with a high school diploma, they are the most embarrassing crowd in Siam, with a little culture, but not enough jobs.

If it's in the countryside, it's okay, but at worst, go home and farm.

Those city-born high school graduates can only roll in the city, or abandon their dignity and sell their bodies.

Therefore, the construction company of Chiang Mai Group easily recruited a large number of young high school graduates as construction workers.

Now it is to open another upward channel for them. As long as they are willing to learn and hope to change the status quo, then becoming an industrial worker is also a good way.
