The Amazing son in law Chapter 7843

charlie wade said to Charles, “Could you first give us a detailed introduction to the entire research station and its operation, such as what hardware facilities it has and the basic operating methods of the necessary equipment?”

Charles nodded and introduced to the four people: “The main building in front of us is the living and daily working area of ​​the research station. All the indoor spaces are equipped with electric underfloor heating facilities, as well as 24-hour heat exchange fresh air and humidification equipment. In addition, there is a molecular sieve oxygen production system, so it can basically achieve constant temperature, constant humidity and constant oxygen.”

After saying that, he pointed to several arched buildings on the left and said, “Our generator sets are in the first equipment compartment on the left. There are five diesel generator sets in total, three main and two backup, and an energy storage system to ensure that the power supply is uninterrupted. The second equipment compartment contains our ice melting equipment and water storage equipment. We use the temperature and electricity of the diesel generator sets to slowly melt the stored glacial ice. After purification, the ice is stored in water tanks and transported to various rooms through underground pipes.”

charlie wade asked him, “Are all these devices automatic?”

“Yes,” Charles said. “All the equipment will run automatically after it is set up. The diesel generator set will adjust its power according to the electrical load, and the same goes for the meltwater equipment. It stores a large amount of glacial ice, at least a thousand cubic meters, plus the underground reservoir, which is nearly a hundred cubic meters.”

charlie wade nodded. A little over a thousand cubic meters of water should be enough for the four of them to use for a winter.

Charles added, “Our oil storage tanks are all built underground around the perimeter of our main building, with ample fire and explosion prevention measures in place. They can store up to 500 tons of high-grade diesel fuel. In addition to the generator sets, all vehicles are also diesel-powered.”

charlie wade asked him, “Then how do we refuel these vehicles?”

Charles led charlie wade to the central parking lot, where there were four refueling machines specially developed for polar regions. While showing charlie wade how to refuel the vehicle, Charles explained, “The fuel here is ultra-low pour point diesel mixed with aviation kerosene, which can flow normally even at minus seventy degrees Celsius. All the vehicles have also been modified for polar regions. Apart from needing to spend a little more time preheating, they are not much different from inland vehicles in terms of usage.”

charlie wade specifically asked him how to operate the enclosed snowmobile. After he understood everything, he asked Charles to take everyone inside the research station to learn more.

Although the outside temperature was below -50 degrees Celsius, the interior temperature of the main building of the research station was a remarkable 26 degrees Celsius. The building has an area of ​​over 4,000 square meters and contains not only some professional research facilities and laboratories, but also as many as 20 rooms. Like the research vessel, these rooms range from four-person rooms to single rooms, and each room is equipped with a simple toilet and shower. Wastewater has an automated recycling system, and sedimented sludge and solid waste are automatically collected and transported back to the country for treatment on supply ships.

The restaurant and kitchen had a good amount of food reserves. Although it wasn’t enough for the research station to operate at full capacity for the whole winter, fortunately, among charlie wade and his group of four, only Lin Wan’er needed to eat, while the others could abstain from food. So the supplies were quite plentiful.

Charles also told charlie wade that in addition to the daily necessities and supplies, there is also a television, telephone and satellite network here. All communication is through satellite, and the efficiency is no slower than inland. In any situation, charlie wade can contact the outside world immediately, and others can also contact him immediately.

However, this network coverage is limited to the research station area. If you leave the research station to work in the field, the vehicles outside are equipped with Musk’s Starlink system, which provides signal coverage throughout the Antarctic continent and the speed is not slow, with bandwidth exceeding 100 megabits.

charlie wade was quite surprised by Starlink’s coverage and speed. He had never encountered such a product before, and he did not expect that such comprehensive network service could be guaranteed even in the polar regions. Even if the first phase of the satellite communication system that he had Lang Hongjun build was completed and put into use, it could only ensure basic communication around the world except for the two major polar regions. To achieve such high-speed network coverage without any blind spots, the number of satellites would need to be increased exponentially.

While charlie wade was mastering the operation of the research station’s equipment and vehicles, the oil tanker was constantly shuttling between the research vessel and the research vessel. They spent a full thirty hours replenishing fuel and other necessary supplies. After replenishing the supplies, they packed a large amount of garbage into trucks.

Three days had passed after the last truck was fully loaded and the transport was completed.

During these three days, charlie wade saw two aurora borealis events, but because the others were still working non-stop, he did not leave the research station during these three days.

As the supply team and the three remaining personnel finished their work and prepared to return, charlie wade watched their vehicles depart from outside the research station.

After leaving the research station, everyone completely forgot about charlie wade’s existence. In their subconscious, the research station had entered an unmanned operation phase, and the next time someone would come would be when Antarctica entered summer in the second half of the year.

After these people left, only the four of them remained within a radius of several hundred kilometers around charlie wade’s research station.

charlie wade joked that this might be the loneliest place in the world, but interestingly, none of them felt lonely. On the contrary, all four of them felt that this was a rare opportunity in life to completely escape the hustle and bustle of the world.

Just as the four had settled in at the research station, a Japanese research vessel set sail from the port of Ushuaia.

On the vast sea, a fishing boat was drifting and swaying. Wu Bolin (Bick) sat cross-legged in the cabin, meditating with his eyes closed.

At this moment, Wu Siyuan ran in excitedly and said, “Elder, the research vessel you’ve been waiting for has arrived!”
