Chapter 378: Chief Engineer Su Delivers a Speech

If it is a general small project, Luo Renping will not care about the ranking position.

But the thermocouple temperature sensor project is different.

As an engineer, Luo Renping knew how much impact this project would have on industrial production.

To put it bluntly, as the No. 3 developer, his name will be recorded in the annals of industrial development along with the thermocouple project.

This is the highest pursuit of engineers.

At this moment, there were only four words in Luo Renping's mind: "I got what I wanted."

The two came to Su Xincheng's office.

The office door was half open.

dong dong!

Chen Jianye knocked on the door: "Engineer Su, it's me, Chen Jianye."

"Jianye is here, come in."

Su Xincheng smiled and saw Chen Jianye and Luo Renping coming in with a device in their hands. His eyes lit up and he asked, "Are there any progress on the thermocouple temperature detector project?"

"Su Gong is as good as a god."

Chen Jianye began by holding up the thermocouple thermometer in his hand and placing it on Su Xincheng's desk: "Engineer Su, this is the first thermocouple thermometer made by our project team."

"Engineer Luo led the team to use this thermometer to conduct experiments ranging from room temperature to 1,800 degrees."

"This is experimental data. You see, according to the electrician's measurement, as the temperature rises, the electromotive force generated by the thermocouple also increases."

"The temperature used in the furnace room of our factory is..."

Chen Jianye reported to Su Xincheng page by page.

It’s just like engineers in later generations using PPT to give reports to their managers.

"Not bad, not bad. Let me take a look at the materials."

After listening to Chen Jianye's report, Su Xincheng picked up the materials and looked at them carefully.

Occasionally he would ask some questions and Chen Jianye and Luo Renping would answer them.

More than half an hour later, Su Xincheng put the manuscript on the table: "It's really an incredible creation, Jianye, you have a genius mind."

"Come to the Technical Office. I am here in the name of the Chief Engineer of the Technical Office and I formally invite you to join us on behalf of the Technical Office."

"If you have any personal or work difficulties, just let me know. I will definitely meet your needs."

"Mr. Su, I'd really like to join the technical office, but I'm afraid I can't do that right now."

Chen Jianye asked with difficulty.

"Oh? Why not? What's the trouble with you?"

Su Xincheng was surprised.

I have already given Chen Jianye enough respect.

As for the salary issue, once you enter the technical office, you don’t have to worry about it at all.

"Engineer Su, I am promoting a fixture project in the workshop. Director Mo Qingyou has given me great support before. But now the fixture project has not been completed yet, so I cannot leave the workshop."

Chen Jianye explained: "Also, I want to wait until the second half of the year to take the fitter grade exam, pass the eighth-level test, and then enter the technical office to study, rather than going through the special recruitment channel."

"Well, you are an ambitious child, I like you very much."

"Then let's set it for the end of November. I'll let the workshop leaders know in advance."

A smile appeared on Su Xincheng's face.

"Thank you, Mr. Su."

Thanks to Chen Jianye.

"Can this thermocouple temperature detector be used to replicate the temperature measurement experiment?"

Su Xincheng picked up the equipment on the table.

"can."

Luo Renping took over.

"What are you waiting for? I want to go and take a look."

Su Xincheng was eager to try.

He also understands the development prospects of the thermocouple project.

If the project is approved, he will report it to the leader immediately and take the opportunity to obtain more experimental and technical resources for the technical office.

Achieving results is the most important task for a leader.

The three of them came to the testing ground on the first floor.

"Everyone stop what you are doing and finish your work before stopping."

"Just now, Engineer Luo and I reported our work to Chief Engineer Su. Chief Engineer Su was very satisfied and came over to inspect it."

"Please give a round of applause to welcome him."

Chen Jianye spoke loudly and was the first to applaud.

clap clap clap!

Everyone followed suit and applauded.

"Good job, comrades."

Su Xincheng's first sentence was very ordinary, but when it came out of his mouth, it didn't sound like a compliment, but rather very sincere.

"When I reviewed and approved the thermocouple temperature detector project initiated by Jianye, I was very much looking forward to it. I thought that I would be able to see the finished product in half a month."

"I didn't expect that you guys could make a finished thermometer in just one week. It's really amazing."

“I know this is a joint effort of the entire team.”

Su Xincheng continued.

Chen Jianye was the first to applaud, and everyone suppressed their excitement and applauded vigorously.

When the applause stopped, Su Xincheng continued, "After Jianye finished his report to me, I carefully read the project development report and was very surprised. The thermocouple project is much better than I expected, but there are still some shortcomings."

"The first is repeatability experiments. We need a lot of repeatability experiments to confirm that the curves of thermocouples following temperature changes are consistent."

"The second is the accuracy of the measurement of thermocouples made of different materials. We currently have three types of thermocouples that combine materials, and the measurement range is very wide. But let's imagine whether we can make a thermocouple temperature detector that can measure from room temperature to 300 degrees or 600 degrees, narrowing the measurement range and improving the accuracy."

"Third, the durability and cost of the material. Currently, the thermocouple uses a ceramic protective shell, which has the disadvantage that it is easy to break during transportation. If we make a 300-degree thermocouple temperature detector, can we use other more convenient materials instead?"

"Of course, I'm just talking big. Whether it can be implemented or not requires you to experiment and discuss."

"I believe you will polish this project to the best of your ability."

Su Xincheng put forward several requirements.

Many engineers fell into deep thought.

Even Chen Jianye was thinking secretly.

Logically speaking, the first thermocouple temperature detector has been made, and the next step is to mass-produce it according to the design idea of ​​the first one.

But thermocouple temperature sensors do come at a significant cost.

The fact that the heat-resistant material of the wire is made of ceramic is enough to give me a headache.

If it is produced on a large scale and transported to other regions, there is indeed a high rate of damage.

Moreover, Su Xincheng’s suggestion of narrowing the measurement range is also a very good point.

Not all industrial production requires temperatures of more than one thousand degrees.

In ordinary industrial production, most of the temperature is controlled below 300 degrees.

Therefore, the actual use range of most thermocouple temperature detectors should be controlled between room temperature and 300 degrees.

While Chen Jianye was thinking, Luo Renping tugged at his clothes.

Chen Jianye understood and said loudly: "The leader has proposed a new research and development direction for us. Let's applaud. Thank you, leader."

After saying this, Chen Jianye applauded vigorously.

Everyone quickly followed suit, applauding loudly.

"Since Chief Engineer Su is here, let's reproduce the entire process of thermocouple temperature measurement for Chief Engineer Su."

Chen Jianye said along the way.

Luo Renping arranged the matters.

The first formed thermocouple element is placed in a muffle furnace.

Start heating from room temperature, taking 100 degrees as a node, continue heating and measuring.

Keep the muffle furnace heated to 1,800 degrees.

Li Jisheng measured the last voltage data.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the manuscript in which he recorded the data.
