Chapitre 77: Chapter 78
After receiving the good news, Edel rushed to the power laboratory in the suburbs the next day.
The crown prince saw Rudolf Diesel who greeted him at the entrance of the laboratory. The crown prince didn't wait for them to finish their salutes, and said with a smile on his face, taking Diesel's hand. "Mr. Diesel is worthy of being the inventor of the diesel engine. He developed a practical small oil extraction machine so quickly."
Facing the crown prince's enthusiastic performance, Diesel was a bit caught off guard, and was obviously taken aback when he was stopped by the crown prince. After all, he had been a businessman, and he responded quickly and pulled the crown prince with a smile on his face. "All of this was done under the vision of the crown prince, and the efforts of many colleagues in the laboratory are indispensable."
Edel listened to Diesel assigning credit to everyone, and it seemed that this person finally realized his expertise.
"But without you, Rudolf Diesel, then everything will not go so smoothly. This honor should belong to you." After he finished speaking, Edel said in summary.
After saying this, Edel told Diesel with a smile. "We can't tout a day at the door, Diesel."
was reminded by the crown prince, Diesel said quickly. "Your Highness, please."
A group of people walked into the laboratory. Under the leadership of Diesel, Edel saw a newly built diesel engine in a power experiment warehouse.
"Bisslow, you come to introduce our new machine to your Highness." Diesel told a young researcher in his thirties behind him. Edel saw the researcher named Bislow standing next to the diesel engine and began to talk endlessly.
"His Royal Highness, please see. This is the latest result of our power laboratory. The 28-horsepower two-cylinder in-line diesel engine has a maximum output speed of 1850, a maximum power: 18.6 (Kw), a rated frequency: 50 (Hz), and a diesel engine. It uses a counterclockwise rotation, four-stroke water cooling, a cylinder diameter of 117 mm, and a total weight of 306 kg. Since this diesel engine consumes only 5.4 kg of fuel per hour, we can install it on the vehicle and replace other power equipment."
After hearing the explanation of the researcher in front of him, Edel thought to himself. Diesel seemed to be not too devoted to the use of diesel engines in vehicles, and wanted to sell to the crown prince when he found an opportunity.
"What is the trouble-free working time of this diesel engine now?" Edel didn't care about other things, and asked directly about reliability.
After hearing the crown prince's question, the researcher named Bislow replied a little flickeringly. "Because we have less tests, the trouble-free working time of this diesel engine is now 310 hours."
After hearing his words, Edel expressed his opinion. "This is not possible. Your trouble-free working hours must be extended. The main installation objects of this diesel engine are agricultural machinery, where there will not be too high maintenance methods. If the current level, there is no way to vigorously develop, and users will not I will buy it."
After speaking, Edel asked Diesel next to him. "This diesel engine is much more expensive than a gasoline engine of the same efficiency."
After hearing Edel's words, Diesel said in thought. "Now because diesel engines have higher requirements on cylinders and various components, this is 20%-30% more expensive than gasoline engines with the same horsepower. However, because we are a new type of diesel engine, we have not completed the improvement of reliability. But give me three months Time can reach a practical standard."
After hearing Diesel's words, Edel had a certain understanding of this diesel engine. There are still many problems in management, but he is very optimistic about the early stage of this diesel engine. Diesel took out this diesel engine, which has not yet been fully practical, and probably felt his own pressure.
Since the establishment of this power laboratory, Edel has invested nearly 7 million lei in research and development funds, especially since Diesel took office, they have not been short of funds. Regardless of the required materials or personnel, the crown prince will try his best to satisfy. Now it is the most money-burning unit in Edel's hands.
"I am quite satisfied with this diesel engine now, but reliability is the advantage of the oil extraction machine, and you need to continue to work hard. After improving this diesel engine, your most important thing is to ensure that the development of the diesel engine continues."
Edel expresses his opinion to Diesel. Now Edel just wants to do a good job in the production of agricultural machinery and lay the foundation for a certain weapon in the future.
"After completing this work, we also have such a plan. We want to divide the powerhouse into three groups, and specifically study the small and large diesel engines, as well as the types of marine diesel engines."
"Diesel, I will fully support the situation you mentioned. For the development of science and technology, I also hope that they can blossom and bear fruit in Romania." Edel cheered Diesel.
"It's really an honor for me to know Your Highness." Diesel expressed his emotions to Edel.
After mutual emotions, Edel left the power laboratory and returned to the palace after asking about other progress.
"Go and bring Mr. Adri here." After returning to the palace, Edel called a guard and ordered it. When the guard found Director Adli, he saw that the old king was there, and he was about to retreat, but was seen by Carol I, who had good eyesight, ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and came in. "
Following the order of the old king, the Edel's guard walked in properly. After a few salutes, I talked about it. "I have seen your Majesty."
When King Carol saw the guard's movements, he knew that he was not looking for himself. Then I was looking for the director of Adrie, "Tell me about the crown prince and seek Adrie if I have anything to do."
"Your Majesty, I don't know." The guard faced the old king, feeling like a lamb watching a lion. The lion did not move, but the lamb himself felt his heart tremble.
"Adri, take a look, maybe it's a question of funding again." Carol I said to the manager who was standing beside him meticulously.
Now that most of the royal family funds are invested in industry, although the invested funds have been well developed, this method of betting all the funds still makes the old king a little bit incomprehensible. In his understanding, eggs cannot be put in a basket, and now the crown prince's approach is a negative teaching material.
After the old king finished speaking, the general manager Adri followed this guard to Edel's office.
"His Royal Highness, may I ask if you have any instructions."
"How much money do we have now." The crown prince asked himself the most concerned question. The diesel engine is almost completed, and the construction of a diesel engine factory should also be on the agenda.
After hearing what the crown prince said, Adri said it after some serious thought. "His Royal Highness can only repay the loan, and we can no longer draw any money. The only remaining fund is the emergency reserve fund of 4 million lei (approximately £200,000)."
After Edel heard the manager's words, he could only give up his plan first, and wait for the harvest of the rubber crisis.
