Chapter 470: Gas Turbines
As soon as Song Changzheng's words came out, others were nothing, and Director Zhao, who was in a state of ignorance and defaulted to Zhuang Jianye's deviation from the rhythm, was surprised, what happened?
So without waiting for Zhuang Jianye and the others to answer, he asked: "Old Song, are you interested in D-50?"
Song Changzheng nodded without hesitation: "Through what we have just learned, we are generally very satisfied with the D-50, although only the two gas turbine power units of turboprop and ground power generation equipment have been developed, but it is enough for our navy for us to join, after all, our maritime patrol aircraft and gas turbines on ships are indispensable things for us, since Tengfei Aviation Power has made a breakthrough in this regard, then we naturally want to support them to continue research." ”
In fact, it is true, if Tengfei Aviation Power is showing a 1,000-kilowatt D-40 gas turbine power unit today, Song Changzheng and Chen Fang will inevitably go to other aerospace units to investigate.
Quite simply, no matter how good the D-40 gas turbine power plant is, the power is too small, whether it is changed to a gas turbine or its turboprop version is installed on an airplane, it gives people the feeling of a small horse-drawn cart.
After all, the navy is carrying out coastal defense tasks of several million square kilometers, so whether it is a ship or an aircraft, it needs a considerable range.
This is also why the Navy couldn't wait to convert the Y-8 into a maritime patrol aircraft not long after it was finalized, not because of how advanced the Y-8 was, but because its range of more than 5,000 kilometers was enough to cover most of the maritime defense areas.
The rationale of the 051 destroyer and the 053 frigate is similar to that of the Y-8 maritime patrol aircraft, even if the technology is a little worse and the tonnage is a little smaller, as long as it can have enough endurance to meet the basic patrol of the maritime defense area, the navy must tighten its belt.
Otherwise, in the face of the increasingly complicated coastal defense situation, it is really useless to just rely on verbal protests, and at critical times, it is necessary for planes and warships to show off their muscles in order to achieve immediate results.
Because of this, Li Fang and Song Changzheng can not care about the D-40 gas turbine power plant, but they can't be indifferent to the D-50, because this gas turbine power has achieved the 3,000 kilowatt level, which is not only light in weight, long in life, and excellent in performance.
Moreover, two large series of turboprops and ground power generation devices have been formed.
This is simply Sister Lin who fell from the sky for the navy, and it is still two, if this is not covered and runs, if the head of the navy knows, not to mention beating them, it is inevitable to point at the nose of the two and scold their mothers.
Not to mention the D-50 turboprop engine, with its weight of 857 kilograms and an overhaul interval of 1,860 hours, what kind of performance improvement will be brought by the turboprop-6 on the Navy Y-8 patrol aircraft.
It is said that the D-50 ground power generation device is also very important to the development of the navy, and it is necessary to know that the ground power generation equipment of the gas turbine power unit can be used as a marine gas turbine with a slight change.
The maximum power of D-50 can reach 3400 kilowatts, equivalent to 4622 horsepower, although there is still a big gap with the high-power gas turbines used by large foreign warships, but this value is almost the same as the power of domestic small diesel units.
Not to mention anything else, the diesel engine on the Type 037 hunting submarine, which is now equipped with a large number of Navy, is also at this level, which is still a relatively new model, and the old model in the sixties and seventies has not yet reached the level of D-50.
If only the power is comparable, the key is that D-50 is light in weight, small in size, low in noise, counting a series of pipelines, pedestals and other auxiliary accessories, it is only more than a ton, but the diesel unit is not counted, just its own weight is two tons away, compared with D-50 has natural advantages.
Of course, this is not the reason why Li Fang and Song Changzheng are eager to join the D-50 project, and the most important thing is that once the D-50 becomes a marine gas turbine and is successfully put on board, it will have an immeasurable role in promoting the future development of the Navy.
After all, in today's world navy, gas turbine power has become the mainstream, but there is still a blank in this area in China, from the head of the navy to the officers and soldiers have almost never seen what a gas turbine is like.
If you don't have the conditions, it's just a matter of looking at the books to understand it, and it doesn't matter if you are an expert who talks on paper and fills up the façade.
However, if we can have it, we naturally cannot let it go, because the navy is different from other units in that it is a comprehensive service with very strong accumulation, and it does not mean that once a ship is built, the officers and men will form combat effectiveness when they go up.
The equipment, damage management, engines, operations, and so on all need to be adapted and explored by the officers and men little by little.
Therefore, it is very important for the development of the Navy to be able to understand the world's advanced ship technology in advance, master and apply it, otherwise things will not be used when they come out, so what is the difference between new warships and scrap metal?
Because of this, it is very necessary to cultivate gas turbine operation skills, maintenance technology, and damage turbine skills, because once these people master the various safeguard measures and operation specifications of gas turbines, they will become seeds, which are crucial to the rapid generation of combat effectiveness of larger tonnage and more advanced ships in the future.
Therefore, these two Lin sisters, Li Fang and Song Changzheng, don't say that they want to take them away, they can't wait to swallow them directly into their stomachs one by one now.
So much so that Song Changzheng calculated in his heart, as long as Zhuang Jianye nodded, he would go directly to the capital with Li Fang, report to the head of the navy in person, and then strive to transfer the Tengfei Aviation Corporation from the aerospace port to the navy.
Director Zhao didn't expect that Song Changzheng's attitude would be so firm, and he would say it so sparingly, what do you mean? When will the units at the aerospace port need the support of the navy?
A certain type of fighter-bomber is an exception, but it doesn't say that the navy will take it all, how can it take off here in the aviation company, and your navy will swallow it in one bite, and you won't be afraid of choking?
Although Director Zhao is axial, he is not stupid, otherwise how could he have been following the head of the headquarters for so many years? Immediately, he heard something different from Song Changzheng's words, so a black face slowly sank, and he looked at Song Changzheng with a frown: "Do you support?
"In this regard, I will want to make a special report to the Navy Headquarters, and the Navy Headquarters will give a clear answer to Tengfei Aviation Corporation. Song Changzheng didn't speak, and Li Fang replied expressionlessly, without giving half of his face.
Director Zhao smiled: "Don't use the naval headquarters to oppress people, you can invest money in the things you fancy and you can also buy them, but you can't move your mind, as for the reason, it's very simple, Tengfei Aviation Corporation is involved in a major special project of strategic equipment, unless a few old leaders in the capital nod, no one else can move." ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Fang and Song Changzheng were stunned, Qian Qiang was at a loss, only Zhuang Jianye almost hugged Director Zhao and kissed them fiercely, this is a pro-leader, an absolutely pro-leader leader.
