Chapter 795: The False Proposition of Catapult Freezing (Plus, Thanks for the Reward)
Water freezes when it is cold, which is the most common phenomenon in nature, and water is a substance that has been thoroughly studied by scientists and engineers, which is why nuclear reactors use pressurized water reactors, water is a common substance, and humans are already familiar with all its properties. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
However, many of people's subjective understandings are wrong, such as whether a light ball and a heavy ball will land at the same time, and the ancient Aristotle is often preaching wrong views.
The cause of these mistakes is still not fundamentally understood.
It is normal for water to freeze when it is cold, but the water vapor in the catapult is not ordinary water vapor, but water vapor at high temperature and high pressure! According to the ideal gas equation of state, the greater the PV=NRT pressure, the higher the corresponding temperature, ordinary water will be boiled at 100 degrees Celsius, turning into water vapor, while in high mountains, the air pressure decreases, less than 100 degrees, the water is already boiling, and it is troublesome to boil an egg in high mountains, and it is necessary to use a pressure cooker.
In the same way, increasing the pressure, the temperature will rise, the temperature inside the catapult is much higher than 100 degrees, so that the small amount of steam leaked out of the track of the catapult will indeed be vaporized immediately in the air, and it is normal for the water vapor to be vaporized by cold, the problem is that the catapult at this time has been heated by steam! This temperature is enough to evaporate the water mist on the deck.
At the same time, this is only one aspect, another aspect, in order to ensure that the water vapor will not freeze, the steam in the catapult in the high latitude is not just fired with ordinary distilled water, but in the distilled water, an additive specially used to prevent freezing, this additive, almost similar to the antifreeze used in automobiles.
(East China Zhixiong can imagine, everyone will have all kinds of questions about this content, welcome to discuss it in the book review area, but please post it civilly.) )
The problem of water vapor freezing has been solved! The next aircraft carrier has already gotten off the slipway and is in the outfitting stage, and the steam catapult can continue to be installed in place, and there is no need to change it to a skid jump to take off!
"Sending a report to Moscow that we have successfully experimented with catapult take-off at high latitudes, the situation is normal." Andrei said, his eyes on the MiG-23K that had just ejected and took off, and after making a turn, he realigned with the deck and landed.
"General Andrei, the Argentine side has sent a message agreeing to all the conditions we have put forward and asking us to dispatch a new aircraft carrier killer." At this moment, a communications officer, who had just finished receiving satellite communications, said to Andrei.
Argentina agreed! Hearing the news, Andrei was also excited, the Soviet Navy has since had a base in South America! The territory of the Soviets, open up again!
"Well, since the Argentines are so powerful, we will not be stingy, order our Ivan Rogov-class landing ships, unload our treasures." Andrei said.
This landing ship did not follow the fleet at first, but did not quietly and directly sail from the Indian Ocean when the British were disabled and the United States decided to dispatch the combined fleet, and only three days ago did it join the formation.
After all, this ocean-going voyage of the Soviet Navy was not to occupy a certain country, and there was no need for any landing ships, and this landing ship was definitely not carrying the equipment of the Marine Corps.
The Ivan Rogov-class dock landing ship is the latest landing ship developed by the Soviet Union in the 70s, this landing ship has a full load displacement of 12,000 tons; The ship is 158 meters long and 24.5 meters wide, and the stern of the ship is equipped with a dock compartment, which can accommodate all kinds of landing craft, and the tank compartment is in front of the dock compartment, which leads directly to the first gate, which can be loaded with tanks or vehicles. In addition, there is a springboard, so you can go directly to the beach when you land.
In general, such a landing ship can accommodate 20 tanks or other vehicles in front, and in the rear dock compartment can accommodate 2 air-cushion landing craft of the "Swan" class and l mechanized landing craft.
But now, there are no tanks and hovercraft in the belly of the wide through landing ship, and there are just two big guys in it.
The shape is extremely special, from above, it looks like an airplane, with a tall vertical tail, and a cabin like an airplane, but, from the bottom, it looks like a ship, nondescript, and the most incomprehensible thing is the nose part, with four engines on each side, placed side by side, it is simply a monster like a four.
And on the back of this monster, there are three rows side by side, double-mounted cylindrical things, as long as you have military common sense, you will know that inside this thing, it is definitely a powerful anti-ship missile!
After receiving the order, the front and rear hatches of this landing ship were slowly opened, and the sailors who had been waiting for a long time, with the help of the equipment in the cabin, slowly pushed the two big guys out of the hatch one after the other!
The aircraft carrier killer slowly revealed its true face, the sunlight in the high latitudes was quite dazzling, and the huge body reflected the sunlight, and almost all the personnel on the surrounding warships looked there.
Andre's eyes also looked at the landing ship, watching the big killer slowly come out, Andrei's mood was also extremely surging.
Although he was born in the Air Force, Andrei also has a great understanding of equipment at sea, especially the naval equipment of the Soviet era, and this behemoth in front of him is the embarrassing aircraft carrier killer weapon of later generations, the flower-tailed pigeon missile attack ground effect aircraft!
Ground effect aircraft refers to a dynamic vehicle that uses the ground effect to provide support and fly.
The so-called ground effect refers to the fact that the lower surface of the wing is very close to the ground, forming a blockage of the airflow, which increases the lift of the wing, so the height of this kind of aircraft, that is, a few meters above the sea surface, although the appearance is like an airplane, it cannot achieve high-altitude flight. Even the current aircraft can fly up to 7,500 meters at its limit, and it usually doesn't fly so high, it flies on the sea. However, its advantages are also quite outstanding, that is, the carrying capacity is quite strong, almost the same as a ship, with the carrying capacity of a ship, and the speed of an aircraft!
Ground effect aircraft were popular for a while after World War II, and various countries began to develop them, but for various reasons, they were finally abandoned, and only the Soviet Union persevered and developed a series of ground effect aircraft!
And after Andrei entered the top level of the Soviet Union, he also attached great importance to ground effect vehicles, coupled with the support of Ustinov, the development of ground effect vehicles was even more rapid!
And the one in front of you is one of the fully mature ground-effect aircraft for attacking aircraft carriers, and the top load is the 3M80 Sunburn supersonic anti-ship missile! (To be continued.) )
