Why does the everlasting lamp in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang not go out for thousands of years?

The Changming lamp in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is not extinguished for thousands of years, there are two main reasons, the first reason is that the lamp oil of the Changming lamp is very special, using whale oil, and the second is the white phosphorus used in the ignition material of the Changming lamp, it is the above two reasons that lead to the Changming lamp in the tomb of Qin Shi Huang for thousands of yearsThere are many legends about the eternal lantern that will not be extinguished for thousands of years, but there is no way to study it, because no one has been in the mausoleum for a thousand years, and no one knows whether the eternal lamp has been extinguished in this thousand years.

If the lamp wants to be lit, it needs to have two conditions at the same time, the first condition is that there needs to be enough lamp oil, and the second condition is that there needs to be enough oxygen, both of which are indispensable, and the lamp will be extinguished if it is missing, and the lamp is placed in the tomb, the tomb is a closed space, and the oxygen will always be consumed one day, so the statement that the lamp will not be extinguished for thousands of years is theoretically not valid at allThe ignition material of the ever-bright lamp is generally white phosphorus, the ignition point of white phosphorus is very low, sometimes it may be just a gust of wind to make the white phosphorus natural, so we see that the ever-bright lamp is not extinguished for thousands of years, but when we open the tomb, oxygen enters the room, so the ever-bright lamp is lit again.

Now that the oxygen is available, the rest is the problem of lamp oil, we all know that the lamp oil of a lamp does not burn for long, and if the lamp oil is consumed, even if there is oxygen, it is uselessAccording to expert research, one cubic meter of whale oil can burn continuously for 15 years in an oil lamp, which is several times longer than ordinary lamp oil.

It is the above comprehensive reasons that led to the fact that when the tomb of Qin Shi Huang was excavated, the lantern was always in a burning stateSome people may not agree with me, but I don't think it's possible that the ever-bright lamp has been burning for thousands of years.

Because the wick of the ever-bright lamp in the mausoleum is made of phosphorus-containing materials, it will not light up when the oxygen is used up in the mausoleum, and the oxygen poured into the mausoleum makes the wick spontaneously combust to give people the illusion that the ever-bright lamp has been lit.

It has to do with the structure of the lamp and the oil. The lamp is a double-layer structure, and the outer layer has a layer of water to effectively prevent the temperature of the lamp oil from being too high; Secondly, the lamp oil of the ever-bright lamp is whale oil, a cubic meter of whale oil can burn for 5,000 days, very fire-resistant, and then combined with other conditions in the tomb, the ever-bright lamp will not be extinguished for thousands of years can be explained.

The burning of the ever-bright lamp is because it is a lamp with oil inside, and the outside is filled with water in a container to prevent the oil from volatilizing, and this oil can be burned very well, so that it can not be extinguished for thousands of years.

The ever-bright lamp in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang will not be extinguished for thousands of years because the lamp oil of the ever-bright lamp is whale oil, and the ignition material of the ever-bright lamp is white phosphorus.

There are two points. First, the lamp oil is fish scale oil, and second, the fuel is white phosphorus, which has a much lower ignition point than other materials, and is more flammable in the mausoleum.

The tomb of Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the ages, is lit with an everlasting lamp, and we all know that the candle will always burn out, so why the everlasting lamp of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang can keep burning, which starts from the way of making the everlasting lamp.

The ancients have long known the way to make candles, there was no electric light in ancient times, so if you want to maintain light in the dark night, you must rely on candles, but after the candle is burned, the wax oil will quickly evaporate at high temperatures, and a candle will not be burned out for a long time, so the ancients thought of a way to reduce the temperature of the candle when it burns, cover the outside of the candle with a shell, and pour cold water into it, which can slow down the burning speed of the candle and form the effect of an everlasting lamp, but this is not enough to burn for thousands of years.

Therefore, the wax oil of the ever-bright lamp must be very special, scientists found after reading the estimate, the ever-bright lamp of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang used mermaid paste, because the ancients lacked basic biological knowledge, so the mermaid paste in their mouth may only be a relatively large fish, some people think that it is whale fat, some people think that it is the oil refined by black fish, and some people think that it is a creature that existed during the Qin Dynasty has been extinct so far, so one of the secrets of the long-term burning of the ever-bright lamp is that the wax oil used is more special, capable of burning for a long time.

In addition, the most critical factor that causes the effect of the ever-bright lamp is the yellow phosphorus in the candle, the ignition point of the yellow phosphorus is about 40 degrees, and it will produce a spontaneous combustion reaction when it is usually hot, for example, many ghost fires in the desert are produced because of the burning of yellow phosphorus, and the air in the mausoleum is relatively fixed, so the ever-bright lamp is extinguished after consuming oxygen, but because the wax oil has not been exhausted, when someone opens the mausoleum, it happens to be holding a torch or a relatively hot lamp forward, After perceiving the change in temperature, these flammable yellow phosphorus will spontaneously combust, re-igniting the everlasting lamp, forming the illusion of being inextinguishable for thousands of years, but in fact, it has not been extinguished for thousands of years, and it will only be automatically ignited when people enter.

According to expert analysis and comparison, it was found that the merman in the history books is the current whale. After the whales are killed, they are boiled into oil and packed in different bottles, and yellow phosphorus is added to the lamp oil, which is a substance that prevents objects from combusting, and after being mixed with lamp oil, it can greatly slow down the burning process of lamp oil.

The main reason is that flammable substances such as white phosphorus are added to these permanent lamps, which will re-ignite once they come into contact with oxygen.

It is mainly through the mixing of lamp oil, coupled with the substance that the object burns, and the understanding of the burning substance, that the lamp will not be extinguished for thousands of years.

It is said to be mermaid paste, which is actually whale fat, because of its huge size, so it can be burned for so many years.

It is a candle made of mermaid paste, and some people say that it is whale oil, which is very flame-resistant, and the ever-bright lamp made has not been extinguished for so many years.

It is made of mermaids, and according to some historical records, it can be inferred that the mermaids they are talking about are the current baby fish.

Because the oil burned by the lantern is whale oil, it is very resistant to burning, and there are also vents in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, which leaves sufficient oxygen for the lantern, which is more conducive to burning.

The lamp oil of the ever-bright lamp is whale oil, and its ignition material is white phosphorus, which is the reason why the ever-bright lamp will not be extinguished for thousands of years.

There are three theories, one is because the oil from the oil lamp comes from the mermaid and burns longer than ordinary oil; The second is that the ever-bright lamp is a double-layer structure, which protects the combustion of the inner layer, and the lamp oil volatilizes slowly; The third theory is that because modern people entered the mausoleum and brought in air, the oil lamps were rekindled.

The ever-bright lamp is a lamp that means never extinguished, always illuminated for the dead, and it is recorded in the history books that this lamp is also used in the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, and it is also very detailed to explain the raw materials of the ever-bright lampIs it true that the ever-bright lamp is always on and does not go out, and is the legend that the light is not extinguished true or false?

It's impossibleThe tomb must be pitch black, even if the light is on when the dungeon is closed, but when all the oxygen inside is burned out, the light will definitely go out, but according to the records, there is indeed a record that the light is on when the dungeon is opened, but it is impossible to keep it on, it should be to open the dungeon, so that the oxygen enters, resulting in the re-ignition of the lamp!

Even if it is some other substance such as whale oil or white phosphorus, it can burn for a long time, but once the oxygen is used up, it will still be extinguished. Therefore, the everlasting lamp that has not been extinguished for thousands of years basically does not exist!

But why the ancient record lamp will always be lit, the reason is because the ancient level of cognition is relatively low, there is a substance called white phosphorus in chemistry, after the underground palace is opened, oxygen enters, white phosphorus will spontaneously combust and cause the lamp to be ignited, the thousand-year-old lamp in the ancient tomb is just a legend, no one has ever seen it, but this lamp can indeed burn for a long time. There is such a saying among Chinese folklore. The lantern in the tomb of Qin Shi Huang is made of mermaid oil, which is also a legend, so don't believe it.

And this lamp is often used in Buddhist temples, temples, and ancient records also record that during Chinese New Year's Eve, the gods go to heaven, and ghosts and gods will go out to forage, if the lights are extinguished, it is dark, they will hear and catch people, like the cry of children, the coughing of old people, etc., of course, this is also fiction!

It is an ancient traditional custom that the lanterns lit by every household on Chinese New Year's Eve, once lit, cannot be blown out until the oil runs out and the candle finally extinguishes itself.

The lamp inside the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is made of extracting whale oil, whale oil can keep burning for a long time, and the air in the mausoleum is different from that on the groundWhen the gate is not opened, the lamp is not actually lit, and after the gate is opened, the sufficient oxygen makes the yellow phosphorus burn at the time, giving the illusion that the lamp has been burning for thousands of years.

In ancient China, whale oil was a substitute for oil, and its function was roughly the same as that of oil, but no matter how long it could burn, "oil" could not burn for thousands of years. Later, it was thought that the Americans had finally uncovered this mystery after thousands of experiments.

It turns out that the ever-bright lamp in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is actually not a real ever-bright lamp, after all, the lamp oil will always run out. He discovered that the main component of lamp oil was yellow phosphorus, which only ignited when it met oxygen. The reason why they will not die for thousands of years is because the burial chamber was originally closed and the oxygen was very thinOnly when we open the tomb, the tomb will be filled with oxygen, and with oxygen, the original volatile yellow phosphorus will burn and ignite the lantern, which has been dormant for thousands of years.

Although the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not yet been fully opened, the excavated cultural relics have already attracted the attention of the world, such as the Qin Terracotta Warriors. In fact, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not been fully exploredThe internal structure of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is very complex, and the wise ancient people also gave full play to their ingenuityThe addition of mercury to the tombs made it difficult for archaeologists to enter.

In addition, if it is easily entered, it is likely to damage its internal structure, which is very likely to lead to the destruction of some cultural relicsOnce the cultural relics are damaged, it will be a huge loss for the whole of China and even the worldTherefore, archaeologists do not dare to enter easily, for fear of making irreparable mistakes.

The mezzanine outside the lamp of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is filled with water to cool the lamp oil, and the middle container is filled with lamp oil, and a wick is inserted in the middle.

The basic structure of this light is complex and is divided into two layers. The outer compartment is filled with water to cool the oil, and the container in the middle is filled with oil, with a wick inserted in the middle. According to experts, most of the wicks have been soaked in vinegar, which has a strong antioxidant ability.

This kind of wick has been specially treated, which also fully proves the wisdom of the ancient working people of our country.

I think there is indeed a lot of magic, after all, just like the pajamas collared by Qin Shi Huang, it's really hard to imagine how difficult it is.

This may be because of its special material, and the structure of love is very special, which also shows that the wisdom of the ancient people of our country is very high.

There is no magic in the modern method of interpretation, except that the oil will burn for a longer time when it touches oxygen after the door is opened. The legend is still not credible, after all, it is a rumor.

Because the light is not on until the gate is opened, the rear door is opened, and it slowly turns on when it touches the oxygen lamp.

Whale oil is a substitute for oil, and its function is roughly the same as that of oil, but even "oil" that can be burned for a long time cannot burn for thousands of years.
