Chapter 303 Major Discovery
When Yunhua reported the situation to Luo Yangfeng, it immediately caught the little old man's attention.
As Yun Hua said, once or twice can be explained by coincidence, but there must be a reason for eight or ten times.
As a scientific researcher, Luo Yangfeng's intuition is also very keen, he thinks this may be a new way of thinking.
And if you study it in depth, you may have a major discovery!
Ever since, Luo Lao led everyone to put down their work, came to the location of the underground runoff, and said to Yunhua: "You let the cradle lily demonstrate again, we have to see it with our own eyes."
"Row!"
Yunhua greeted Cradle Lily, who understood and immediately took root again.
After three months of growth, Sayuri's strength has also made great progress.
Especially its "water diversion" feature, because it has to penetrate six to 70 meters of sand every day to absorb water, which is equivalent to special training, so the water control ability has also been greatly improved.
At this time, it activated the "water diversion" feature again, and the water flowed out from the ground like a fountain.
At the same time, Sayuri's water discharge efficiency has also improved a lot, and the water flow has changed from one finger thick to three finger thick, comparable to tap water.
Half a minute later, a large area of the dune was wet, but nothing changed.
An hour later, the dunes still hadn't collapsed.
But Mr. Luo and the researchers did not speak, but just watched all this silently.
As a scientific research worker, patience is an essential element for everyone. .
Yunhua, on the other hand, was faintly impatient.
In the end, Lao Luo comforted him with words: "Don't worry, research experiments rarely succeed at the first time, just be patient and wait!"
"All right!"
Yunhua nodded, staring at the sand dune area under Sayuri, he only hoped that the collapse scene would appear sooner.
After an unknown amount of time, when Yunhua's eyes were sore, the scene he had been looking forward to for a long time finally appeared again.
Rumble!
With the water outlet point as the center, the sand dunes sank inward again, forming a vortex-like appearance, with quicksand rolling.
Compared with the large area of the quicksand field, the area affected by the collapse of the water outlet point is very small, only a dozen square meters.
But within the range of more than ten square meters, the speed of the collapse was very, very fast, almost between lightning and flint, making it difficult for people to react.
Not only that, the depth of the collapse in the central area is also very deep, as deep as two or three meters, which can completely bury and swallow an elf in an instant.
As for the subsequent spread of the subsidence, it was much slower, and the depth of the subsidence was also much smaller. At most, it was just icing on the cake, better than nothing.
"It really collapsed!"
Luo Yangfeng's eyes lit up, his face was full of surprise.
When doing scientific research, the most fearful thing is that there is no way of thinking and no way forward.
As for Yunhua's wave, he directly gave him a big gift.
A sure and feasible research idea!
"Water and sand? Seepage?"
Luo Yangfeng was pleasantly surprised, but also began to think.
He's been experimenting with sand all his life, but desert water is known to be very thin, so he'd never considered water before.
Luo Yangfeng didn't know much about the nature of water.
"Has any of you ever taken hydraulics? Fluid mechanics or micromechanics are fine too!"
Luo Yangfeng turned his attention to the members, all of them were top students of Jiangnan University, and they also played a role in checking for omissions and filling vacancies for him.
"Old Luo, I have taken hydraulics as an elective!"
Qin Chong looked around, An Luoluo raised his hand.
Luo Yangfeng was overjoyed when he saw this, and excitedly said: "Can you see the reason for the collapse just now?"
"I speculate that the groundwater should flow upwards under the action of the "water diversion" feature of the cradle lily, and the water can make the sand float up against gravity during the upward flow, so that the sand loses its load-bearing capacity. Therefore, when there are elves or other heavy objects standing on the sand, the sand cannot withstand the force, and it will automatically sink and eventually form quicksand."
Qin Chong scratched his face and expressed his thoughts.
"interesting!"
Luo Yangfeng focused his eyes.
Although Qin Chong is only a master's degree, he must be a top student with a solid foundation and the best among the best to be able to enter his team.
Although Qin Chong used the word "guess", but Luo Yangfeng estimated that the principle is almost the same, so it must be the case.
However, just in case, Luo Yangfeng still sent two other people out of the desert to contact experts in hydraulics to verify the authenticity of the theory.
There's no way, don't expect to have a signal in the bloody place of the research station.
If you want to make a phone call, you have to run hundreds of kilometers!
After assigning the task, Luo Yangfeng continued: "We assume that Xiao Qin's theory just now is correct, so let's take this as the premise. Next, let's talk about which direction we are going to research!"
"Old Luo, I have an idea."
Dr. Zhang Yuanhua raised his hand first, and after receiving permission, he said, "I think the flow rate of the water flow should be a breakthrough point in research. The faster the reverse seepage of the water flow, the faster the dune collapse may be, and the greater the power will be."
"It's a train of thought!"
Luo Yangfeng pushed the glasses frame, and quickly took a pen to record it in his notebook.
After the chatterbox opened, members of the research team also made suggestions.
At this time, the role of the top scientific research team members is reflected. Almost everyone has an idea. After a while, Mr. Luo wrote down a page full of new ideas.
Their next task is to test the new ideas one by one.
During this process, Yunhua, Fang Xiao, Yuan Weiming and others couldn't talk at all. They were regarded as the audience in the venue, and the focus was on experiencing this sense of joy.
"Okay, let's talk about the first one first. If you want to increase the flow rate, what can you do?"
The big idea is reverse osmosis, and the small idea is the suggestion of everyone. However, if you want to implement the suggestion, you must have specific and feasible measures.
"The flow rate of the water body is controlled by the elves' water diversion characteristics."
Qin Chong raised his hand again: "Old Luo, why don't we apply for another elf with the water diversion characteristic? The strength should be gym-level, and the development of the water diversion characteristic should not be too bad, at least better than the cradle lily."
If you want to increase the flow rate, you have to find elves with stronger water control ability to participate in the experiment.
However, the water diversion characteristics of cradle lily are much stronger than that of professional-grade sandbell cactus.
If you go higher, you can only shake people.
"Gym level? I'm afraid it will take a lot of time."
Luo Yangfeng had helplessness on his face.
Elf, with his status, he will definitely be able to apply.
But there is no way to omit the procedures and time spent.
Especially for elves with such special requirements, it is impossible to apply for it in a few months.
"Increase the flow rate of reverse osmosis?"
Yun Hua, who had been acting as an audience in the arena, raised his eyebrows and suddenly had an idea.
So he raised his hand and said, "Old Luo, I have an idea. Maybe I can try it now!"
