Chapter 152 Disaster prevention, disaster relief, disaster reduction, man can conquer nature

Wu Zhen was really heartbroken when he saw the disasters in various places and the suffering compatriots through the Batfighter.

Although they organized a lot of disaster prevention and relief work, reduced a lot of losses, and the leaders were very satisfied, Wu Zhen felt that he could do better!

After careful consideration, Wu Zhen came up with a good idea, which was to use the technology he had mastered to conquer nature.

For example, in a suitable place where there are rain clouds, if there is drought below and the place where the rain clouds are drifting is not dry, then artificial rainfall or rain-increasing can be carried out, thus killing two birds with one stone.

If the rain clouds are in a flood-prone area, then we should try every means to destroy the conditions for the rain clouds to produce rainfall and reduce the amount of precipitation from the rain clouds, thereby reducing precipitation at the source and reducing flood disasters.

By analogy, when rain clouds pass over a reservoir, the rain can also fall into the reservoir or storage lake. . . . .

So Wu Zhen told his idea to the new leader and chief scientist and received their strong support.

In particular, the chief scientist told Wu Zhen that my country had been researching and trying artificial rainfall for a long time.

In 1958, when Jilin Province was hit by a severe drought, my country attempted artificial rainfall for the first time. Unfortunately, although it was barely successful, the actual effect was very poor.

However, this was also a successful attempt. Later, we carried out artificial rainfall several times. Although there was progress, the limitations were too great and the gap with foreign countries was still obvious.

We have experienced frequent natural disasters in recent years, and our country has been conducting research in this regard.

The chief scientist engineer also vaguely knew that Wu Zhen had special channels to obtain the latest scientific and technological information, and he probably got this information.

So the chief scientist immediately expressed his strong support and promised to provide all possible help. Wu Zhen only needed to ask for any raw materials and materials he needed.

Wu Zhen also tacitly stated that he would submit the entire process and detailed information about artificial rainfall or increasing or decreasing rainfall to the Science and Technology Bureau when the time comes.

Although I cannot explain the principle clearly, but with the process and information, as well as the proportion of materials used, our country's experts will definitely be able to reverse engineer it!

The scientist chief engineer also understood Wu Zhen’s good intentions. After all, what you research is yours. In addition, practice makes perfect, and knowledge can only be truly mastered through practice.

Artificial rainfall is actually the process of increasing the precipitation of clouds through artificial means. It means that based on the principle of precipitation formation in nature, some necessary conditions for precipitation formation are artificially supplemented, thereby promoting clouds containing water vapor to quickly condense or collide and grow into raindrops, falling to the ground, thus forming precipitation.

The method of artificial rainfall is to choose the most appropriate time according to the physical characteristics of different clouds, and use airplanes and rockets to spread rain catalysts such as dry ice, silver iodide, and salt powder into the clouds.

This will cause clouds carrying water vapor to precipitate or increase precipitation, thereby relieving or alleviating drought in farmland, increasing the amount of irrigation water in reservoirs, water supply capacity, or water for power generation, etc.

However, this technology also has great limitations. There must be suitable rain clouds with a lot of water vapor, and then enough catalysts are spread in the right locations to achieve the conditions for rainfall.

However, artificial rainfall is costly and ineffective, so the most commonly used method is artificial rainmaking, which is divided into warm cloud rainfall enhancement and cold cloud rainfall enhancement.

To make warm clouds (clouds with a temperature above 0°C) produce precipitation or increase rainfall, it is only necessary to spread hygroscopic particles such as salt powder and urea in the clouds, which can promote the formation of clouds rich in water vapor and lead to the formation or increase of precipitation.

If you want to make cold clouds (clouds with temperatures below 0°C) produce precipitation, you need to use airplanes to spread suitable catalysts such as dry ice and silver iodide to produce a large number of ice crystals. This will increase the density of ice crystals on the upper part of the cold clouds, thereby promoting or increasing precipitation. If the weather is cold, it will snow.

Generally speaking, artificial rainfall methods can only work when natural clouds are already producing precipitation or are close to producing precipitation.

Similarly, artificial rain reduction or artificial snow reduction is just the opposite. It destroys the precipitation environment of rain clouds by artificially spreading catalysts such as silver iodide and diatomaceous earth from aircraft to reduce rain or snow.

Although we know the principle and have obtained the catalyst material, the actual operation is still a problem!
