Chapter 111 Beyond Imagination
Today, we are about to start the celebration of the master company. Known as the heart of the aviation industry - the engine, after unremitting efforts, almost cheating, the master company finally produced its own engine.
Now, before the celebration began, Jiang Huilan was introducing Zhang Jingyuan seriously.
"The engine as a whole adopts the principle of plasma, considering that in space, there are sufficient water resources, and air resources are too little, so two engines are designed, one is that the working medium is air, which is used in the atmosphere, and can use compressed air to meet the needs of space in a short time.
The other is a working medium entirely with water, and the plane carries a water tank, which can carry two tons of water.
First of all, let's introduce the first-generation aerodynamic engine numbered K01.
Almost all the materials used in the engine were developed from the ground up. Mainly for the development of a strength of 100 integers, high temperature resistance of 5000 degrees of material, density of 10, a shaft connected to the compressed air chamber and the studio two chambers, the chamber carried by the compressed air, need to be additional. Moreover, when using compressed air, it is possible to turn the compressed air chamber in front into another power chamber by simply opening the two exhaust ports behind the compressed air chamber.
The entire engine is two meters long and 0.6 meters high, with a total of 3,600 discharge electrodes inside, which can expand the compressed liquid air to the limit in 0.03 seconds.
Roughly speaking, liquid air to gaseous air can be about 700 times fatter at the same temperature; When the temperature reaches 5000 degrees, the volume can expand about 250 times, and if it is ionized, the volume can further expand by 1000 times (some say that it is 10*5 times, don't take the novel seriously). Therefore, theoretically, in the complete state, from liquid air to ionized high-temperature air, the volume can expand by about 1.75×10*8 times, 175 million times.
Of course, the reality is far from this theoretical value, and with the high speed of the aircraft, there is no need to compress it to liquid air. With the current technology, the engine can be increased by 100,000 times. Such an engine, with a power of 600,000 degrees per hour, can provide a maximum rated thrust of 50 tons; In a short time it can provide more than 55 tons of thrust, but it will cause damage to the engine. The minimum thrust is 0.5 tons, which is completely provided by the rotation of the blades themselves, and the power at this time is only 8000 degrees. The efficiency is somewhat low.
In addition, a total of 1,800 bionic blades of 12 types are installed in the entire engine. There are 12 types of prototypes, including eagles, water birds, shark fins, and sparrows. Energy conversion efficiency can reach 90%!
During this time, several new materials were involved. In terms of lubrication, it mimics a liquid you provide called Aoi Water Elite, which is obtained by ionizing heavy water, with some lubricants added. The cost per kilogram reached 100 million yuan.
All wires have been purchased from the state's superconducting materials, worth more than 1.5 billion yuan. Self-weight 2.7 tons.
The shell is a new material developed and insulated, similar to carbon fiber. The cost is relatively low, and one ton of weight costs tens of millions of yuan. This is considered cheap among aviation materials. Able to withstand temperatures of up to 800 degrees.
The entire engine does not calculate the cost of scientific research, just the cost of materials, which is as high as 9.7 billion yuan. If you add various scientific research cost calculations, it may exceed 30 billion.
In addition, the next engine is the S01, which has a completely sealed design, no air intakes, and all the working medium is transported through guò water pipes to provide liquid water.
The expansion efficiency of liquid water is almost twice that of liquid air, and the expansion efficiency is more than 300 million times that of high temperature and high pressure ionization. Because neither technology nor materials can fully utilize this expansion efficiency, we only use ionization heating to use this power, and the expansion efficiency is 200,000 times. The power is 600,000 degrees, the thrust is 51 tons, and the limit can reach 55 tons, because the structure is relatively simple and the cost is relatively low. It is about 96% of the cost price of K01. Self-weight 2.0 tons.
Because it is completely sealed and adopts the shape of a rocket, the drag is very small, so the actual efficiency in the atmosphere should be 92%, and the space efficiency can reach 94%. No matter in terms of prospect or application, the development of S01 far exceeds the development of K01.
The internal structure of the two engines is basically the same. The cost is 9.3 billion yuan; However, the cost of research is high, and a lot of waste is wasted in order to limit the limit expansion of liquid water. ”
Watching Jiang Huilan talk eloquently, Zhang Jingyuan's eyes flashed with appreciation, but it was well disguised, "Why is the expansion of water almost twice that of liquid air, but the thrust is not much different?" ”
"Haven't you heard of conservation of energy?" Jiang Huilan rolled her eyes, "The molecular composition of water is very stable, and in order to ionize, a stronger voltage and a larger current are required. ”
"Hehe, that's it, I see, hehe...... It's been a really nice day...... Haha......"
"Puff ......" Looking at Zhang Jingyuan's appearance, Zhou Feixuan, Jiang Huilan, and Feng Xuezhi, who were studying power together, all laughed.
At noon, under the warm winter sun, all the people of the master company gathered on the vast playground. There are 10,000 people!
This is destined to be a celebration that will go down in history, because the dream of a nation has since plugged in the wings of flying!
At 11 o'clock, more than 1,000 people spontaneously came to the media, filling one-third of the front of the stage. Media from all major countries around the world are allowed to enter today. Of course, it can only be seen on the playground, and if it appears in another location, it will be caught under the pretext of being a spy. Anyway, there are toilets on the playground and plenty of power on the stage, so no one can find any reason to leave.
Of course, there are many acquaintances among media friends, and there are even competitors. After everyone meets, they greet each other, even if it is between competitors, there is no such competitive demeanor, and individuals can retain enough friendship.
Standing on the stage of the ceremony, Zhang Jingyuan quietly looked ahead, tens of thousands of master company employees are the foundation of their own development; And thousands of media personnel will report this grand occasion to the world. From today onwards, the master company will complete a real transformation.
In the past, only chip technology and three materials supported the scene, but the income of these four businesses may be astronomical in the eyes of others; But the research and development of aviation technology, even if it has its own golden finger, is also a big cost. Almost all the profits are invested in this research.
In addition to this, there are other studies that still require huge financial support. Therefore, the master company has borrowed as much as 50 billion yuan from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and the State Bank respectively, and it is already in debt! If you don't use your own technology patents as collateral, no one will lend!
However, after today, it will be different, maybe in a month, it will be able to bring unimaginable profits to the master company!
Just because, the heart of aviation - the engine!
