Chapter 733 - Wetsuits

2 people were currently walking anxiously towards a research center.

Overseer Sophia from the textile industry, and overseer Wiggins from the Chemical industry were fully energized for today’s operation.

No matter what, they had to succeed.

All the wet suits that they had previously been researching on, had been a failure.

What exactly was the problem?

Did they miss something?

For this task?

His Majesty had only given them a list of all materials needed for creating them, as well as brief instructions in the manufacturing process.

He basically told them to try it on their own and research first.

And if they still hadn’t produced the right grade of wet suits, then after a month... he would properly show them where their errors or mistakes lied.

Both overseers took this as a challenge and didn’t want to let Landon down.

But how could they have known that they would fail like this?

All wetsuits that had been created in the research center didn’t pass inspection.

They had divers wear their suits and swim deep in the swimming pools.

Of course, they carried out other tests too.

And that’s how they found many errors from their models.

With that, they had been adjusting their techniques, correcting their mistakes and learning more about wetsuits.

But so far, only 10 people, including the overseers, were on the research team.

So progress was slow.

And now, they were left with 21 more days before Landon did his own inspection.

Of course if they failed, Landon would teach them the proper way to go.

But if they pass, then large scale production of these wetsuits will commence.

At first, the overseers thought that just 10 of them was enough for the project.

But they were wrong.

With time running out, they decided to hire 50 more people as soon as possible.

And last week, they had been educating these people about what these wetsuits were supposed to do.

So now, the new recruits had to place all hands on deck fast.

This way, more mistakes and corrections could be noticed and done.

.

Everyone crowded around a large glass tank with their lab coats, goggles and other protective gear on, while holding pencils and writing boards with paper on it.

Can you guys hurry up?

It’s freak** cold in here!

(>:`□’:)

They asked him several more questions, before sending him to the locker room to freshen up.

All volunteers worked in the Chemical industry, so they knew the importance of keeping a tight lip over everything.

Plus they had already signed the contract of confidentiality.

.

The volunteer quickly changed, and someone brought the wetsuit back.

"Alright everyone Q.A. is over.

Now, let’s focus on the problems with this wetsuit.

Who can tell me why it’s a failure?" Sophia asked while holding at the suit.

Her workers, alongside Wiggins, came together to create these wetsuits.

So some of her people were also involved in the research team too, and they had learned a lot about chemistry and everything else that went into creating them.

Likewise, Wiggins’ team had also learned a lot from Sophia’s people too.

Again, there were new people added to the research team, so they had to ask some basic questions for others to pick up fast.

"Test Product 71 was a failure, why?"

And once again, many people raised their hands.

"Edith, go!"

"Overseer Sophia, from what I know... wetsuits actually use a layer of water, along with other layers of material to trap body heat.

And this all works because of thermodynamics.

Our bodies like to be at a warm 37°C, which is typically warmer than the water.

So if two things have different temperatures, heat will typically get transferred from warm to cool things.

That said, because water has densely packed atoms and molecules, it will suck heat away from the body faster than if one were just surrounded by air... which can get dangerous.

That’s where wetsuits come in.

Their designers to stop heat from escaping from our bodies while we are in the water.

So in a way, the wetsuits are like insulators, which keep the heat in at all times.

But in the volunteer’s case, his wetsuit didn’t do it’s intended job at all.

Maybe the design phase was faulty, leading to water penetration in the suit.

Or maybe we didn’t use the right materials.

Either way, the suit failed to do its primary objective!" Edith said while pushing her glasses in.

And everyone else nodded in agreement.

The suit was indeed a failure!
