The rise of nanometers

The thermoelectric power generation module installed in the exhaust pipe is relatively simple.

The thermoelectric power generation module planned to be installed on the engine cooling system is relatively difficult. The main function of the cooling system is to dissipate heat to the engine and prevent the engine temperature from being too high.

Therefore, the thermoelectric power generation module must take into account the heat dissipation function to avoid affecting heat dissipation.

Engineers from Dongfeng and Snail spent a lot of effort and were busy for more than a week before they modified the thermoelectric power generation module and the engine cooling system and successfully combined them.

Zhu Fu, the president of Dongfeng Group, who came from the headquarters in Jiangcheng, Hubei Province, happened to bring his people to the equipment maintenance center of Snail Industry in Texas.

Many people may wonder why it is Dongfeng Group and not Dongfeng Motor, because Dongfeng Motor is a joint venture between Dongfeng Group and Nissan.

The one that has been cooperating with Suiren Company is Dongfeng Group itself, not Dongfeng Nissan.

Snail Industry's Dezhou maintenance center is not far from the Milk Company. Snail Industry has maintenance centers in every prefecture-level city where Suiren Company has settled.

The existence of these maintenance centers is to ensure that the equipment of Blue Era and Fengmin Agriculture can be repaired in a timely manner.

After all, Blue Age and Fengmin Agriculture have many vehicles, equipment, and production lines, many of which are manufactured by Snail Industry. In addition, production lines with some sensitive technologies can only be repaired by Snail Industry's own maintenance personnel.

The three milk company minivans were all taken to the maintenance center.

After Zhu Fu met with Chen Huaizhi and Du Jinhua, they watched the modified pickup truck together.

On the car lift, a small truck engine was running, and the engineers testing the data had fatigue on their faces, but more excitement.

"Have you tested the fuel consumption?" Zhu Fu turned around and asked.

Chen Huaizhi replied energetically: "The other two small trucks have been on the road for a day of testing. After adding electric motors and battery packs, the average fuel consumption has dropped by 41 to 52%. There is still room for optimization."

Suddenly Zhu Fu saw the solar panels on the side, turned around and asked: "Mr. Du, you are not planning to install solar panels, are you?"

Du Jinhua nodded: "This is also our company's experimental product, a composite solar panel."

Composite solar panels? Zhu Fu was a little curious: "What's the difference between them and ordinary solar cells?"

Du Jinhua explained: "The difference is huge, because our energy conversion efficiency has reached 28% + 24%."

"28% + 24%, what does this mean?" Zhu Fu was confused.

"28% is the power generation efficiency of solar photovoltaic panels, and 24% is the power generation efficiency of solar thermal panels. We combined photovoltaic panels and photothermal panels, and the comprehensive power generation efficiency increased to about 52%."

Zhu Fu was completely shocked. At this moment, there was only one thing he wanted to say in his heart: Is your company really a Blue Star company? Are you sure it's not Zenith Star?

Thermoelectric power generation systems and composite solar panels are what will kill pure fuel vehicles and electric vehicles.

No wonder it is necessary to install an electric motor and a large battery. Solar panels generate electricity and waste heat temperature difference generates electricity. Basically, no additional charging is required. The existence of the fuel engine ensures that the vehicle can continue to be used when the solar panels cannot work.

Zhu Fu also thought of another problem, which is that the Suiren system has its own gas supply point, and this fuel consumption will be reduced to the extreme.

For example, the small truck customized by Fengmin Agriculture has a carriage specification of 6.2 meters long, 2.1 meters wide, and 2.2 meters high. The top area of ​​the carriage is 13.64 square meters.

An ordinary solar panel, with an area of ​​one square meter, can generate 0.9 kilowatt-hours of electricity based on a power generation time of 8 hours a day.

The efficiency of composite solar panels is about 3.4 times that of ordinary solar panels.

Based on this calculation, 40 kilowatt-hours of electricity can be generated in a day. With waste heat power generation, it is estimated that energy consumption can be reduced by 70 to 90%.

This is a huge benefit for the truck industry, and it is even more good news for Dongfeng Group.

Zhu Fu woke up and immediately said: "Mr. Du, our company has plans to develop new energy vehicles. I plan to have in-depth cooperation with your company."

"Easy to say, we have been cooperating for so long. As long as Dongfeng needs our spare parts, we welcome you to come and customize them." Du Jinhua naturally did not refuse.

Zhu Fu was impatient, as if he was afraid of long nights and dreams, so he decided directly: "Okay, I will have someone prepare the contract right away."

"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Du Jinhua stretched out his hand, and the two held their hands tightly.

Suiren Company has no interest in producing cars. After all, there are already so many car factories in the country. Wouldn't it be better to let car companies call them daddy?

The electroplating agents supplied by Suiren Materials have already benefited domestic car companies a lot, and the service life and strength of many parts have skyrocketed.

Now with the addition of thermoelectric power generation systems and composite solar panels, let alone domestic car companies, even foreign Volkswagen, Toyota, and General Motors have to call it daddy.

As for companies that don't want to cooperate.

Suiren Company specializes in treating all kinds of dissatisfaction.

The two small trucks that went out for testing traveled several times to Texas and Pingyuan County before returning to the maintenance center.

Engineers installed solar panels on the roof of the car, then added batteries and tested again.

Due to the cold weather in Texas, the sunlight intensity in winter is not enough, and the power generation system generates relatively little electricity. The average hourly power generation during the day in winter is only about 20 to 30% of that in other seasons.

After reading this test report, Zhu Fu and Chen Huaizhi became even more enthused, because when there is insufficient sunlight in winter, this solar panel can still maintain a temperature of 1 to 1.5 degrees per hour, which is certainly a lot in summer.

And they also discovered a benefit. If composite solar panels are applied to cold chain trucks, the effect will be even better.

After all, cold chain trucks don’t need much refrigeration in winter, but they just need a lot of refrigeration in summer, which is basically consistent with the seasonal power generation of solar panels.

Zhu Fu stayed in Texas for more than a week, then handed over the affairs here to Chen Huaizhi and returned to the headquarters in Jiangcheng, Hubei Province. This time when he went back, he needed to convince the company's senior officials to fully promote hybrid vehicles.

For Dongfeng Group, whether to eat or drink porridge in the future depends on their determination.

If we seize this opportunity, it is not impossible to surpass Volkswagen, Toyota, and General Motors, the three major international car companies.

To convince the top management of Dongfeng Group, Zhu Fu could only go back to the headquarters to do this. He quickly took a flight back to Jiangcheng.

the other side.

Snail Industry and Dragon Totem are also discussing the business division of thermoelectric power generation systems and composite solar panels.

In the end, Huang Xiuyuan came forward and assigned the thermoelectric power generation system to Snail Industry, while the solar panels were assigned to Dragon Totem.

Dragon Totem and Snail Industry have also begun planning for the mass production of these two products.

There is no doubt that the market demand for thermoelectric power generation systems and composite solar panels with such high efficiency is undeniable.

In addition, Snail Industry is also designing products for another use of thermoelectric materials, which is thermoelectric refrigeration.
