Chapter 601: Trial Production Begins
Sure enough, Su's father called, and after the leader knew the needs of the factory, he directly said that the drawings would be sent tomorrow. In this era, the generators that can be manufactured in China are generally less than 10,000 kilowatts, and with a 100,000-kilowatt machine, how can it be put aside without research, so this drawing has long been surveyed and mapped.
It's just that the current situation is that the span is too large, and there is no way to directly imitate it, after all, in the drawings of surveying and mapping, there is no introduction to the performance of the material, so it takes a lot of time to imitate it directly. If Li Zhao hadn't intervened, the imitation would not have been completed, but at this time, it is estimated that it will not be more than ten years from the original, but it is estimated that it will still take three or five years, and by that time, it is obviously a little late.
The next day, the superior sent the drawings, and Li Zhao also put some of his thoughts on the generator, but it still takes a lot of time, not ten days and half a month to complete, but it can be tried before the year.
The reason why it takes so much time is that the generator set that Li Zhao wants to build, not to mention reaching the supercritical level, but also definitely wants to reach the critical level, and the critical unit, first of all, the steam pressure will reach 22.1 megapascals, and the steam temperature will reach more than 500 degrees, such a steam turbine is not simple.
Of course, it is difficult for others, but it is not necessarily for Li Zhao, after all, in terms of materials, Li Zhao himself has an advantage, which is nothing to Li Zhao. In addition, Li Zhao has spent nearly a year researching turbofan engines, and his understanding of turbines is not comparable to others, so Li Zhao wants to give it a try.
Of course, Li Zhao didn't plan to draw all the drawings in person this time, just this is relatively simple, and there are drawings as a reference, which can just allow the research institute to participate, and it can be regarded as laying a foundation for the turbofan engine of the aircraft, so that they can contact the difficulty of high-level equipment, which is also very beneficial to the turbofan engine manufacturing that will begin next year, after all, Li Zhao estimated that at the end of the year, the drawings will be about the same.
After a few days of study, Li Zhao convened a special project team and distributed the work, of course, Li Zhao had already made annotations on the content of this work, and most of the parts were sketched, after all, these are all things that have not been contacted by everyone in the institute now, and Li Zhao needs to make it more detailed.
In this regard, Li Zhao also distributed this work, which can be regarded as on the right track, and the next step is to look at the progress of each part from time to time, and then discuss the relevant technology and design parameters with the corresponding team.
However, this work has just been completed, and a new work has come, not anything else, that is, the work on the design of the 5,000-square-meter blast furnace, the power of the 3,000-square-meter blast furnace has also been demonstrated these days, and has been widely recognized by the superiors, especially the production cost, which is lower than Li Zhao's estimate, and the final cost of carbon steel is less than one hundred and five.
Without him, the carbon consumption was lower than Li Zhao imagined, and after a few days of exploration, it was finally determined that the carbon consumption per ton of pig iron was only more than 480 kilograms, although there were fluctuations, but it did not exceed 490. In this case, there is a situation, that is, the iron output of the 998 plant has more than tripled, but the carbon consumption is only less than twice the original, which also puts the promotion on the agenda. ….
However, Li Zhao didn't plan to take care of the promotion, the drawings or something, the mechanical department has a full set, and they can issue it on their own, and the teaching problem is handed over to the deputy director of An, and there is no more suitable person than him. Although Li Zhao really wanted to charge a fee, the current situation is like this, and it is impossible to charge a fee.
Of course, these are also national investment, so which factories can carry out the construction of 3,000 square meters of blast furnace, it depends on the arrangement of the superiors, after all, in this era, except for the 998 factory to intercept 20% of the profits, there is no factory now has this privilege, of course, this is also related to the factory research projects are very important.
As for the blast furnace design of 5,000 square meters, there is no way to shirk this matter, but there is also a better place, that is, the original team can be gathered, and then there will be a research institute to support the bottom. After the formation of the research team, because there is already a tacit understanding, the time to get on the right track is not slower than that of the generator, although it is fast to get on the right track, but if you want to complete the design, then there is something to wait, after all, the construction of the blast furnace is a whole system, different from the generator.
When these two things are on the right track, the time has come to the end of August, at this time, there is also good news, that is, the research on tanks, first of all, there are preliminary results in armor, although composite armor can not be compared with the future, but it can be regarded as a start, but the material and the future can not be compared.
As far as Li Zhao knows, there are two kinds of materials used in the middle filling, one is nylon, and the other is fiberglass, that is to say, the armor is divided into multiple layers, first steel armor, then glass fiber, then a layer of steel armor, then nylon material, and finally a layer of steel armor.
In this case, they believe that the frontal fire of the 125-mm gun should be fine, but this armor is too heavy, and if the original design dimensions are used, the weight of this tank is estimated to be more than 60 tons. The composite armor is almost out, and it feels like the effect is okay, but the reactive armor is relatively slow, after all, it requires the invention of an inert explosive, which must be an explosive that will not explode when fired by a sniper rifle.
This kind of explosive is a relatively difficult kind of research, after all, it needs not to explode when the sniper rifle is hit, and it needs to explode when it is shelled, and it is also necessary to fire metal pieces and cut shells when it explodes, and at the same time pay attention to the safety of soldiers, so this research is quite difficult, and it will not be able to come up with it for a while.
As for the composite armor, how to say it, in fact, it is barely used, after all, the weight of the armor is much heavier than in the future, but in terms of protection ability, it is only unsatisfactory. Of course, when it was tested, it was a frontal hit, and if it was made into inclined armor, it was estimated that it would be better, but the specific effect could only be tested at that time.
Li Zhao is preparing to build at least five vehicles in the first batch so that various tests can be carried out, the most important of which is the shelling test, which will basically be used as a target to shoot one of the test subjects, and this one is a test that must be carried out, after all, without this test, it is impossible to know what the specific situation of the tank is. After all, it would be funny if there was a pure defect somewhere, and where it was directly hit by a shot, and then the entire tank was scrapped. ….
So in the future tests, there will definitely be one thing, shelling from various positions, and then every time a shell is fired, a test will be carried out to see which parts will be shaken out of the fault by the shelling. Only in this way can the combat effectiveness of the tank be guaranteed in the future, and if there is really a situation where one shot will lie down, then no matter how good the data is, it will be rubbish.
In addition to this good news, the biggest good news is that the aiming system has made a breakthrough, with the assistance of computers and artificial, the artillery can be aimed at the target in the march, but what is the effect, it depends on the use of the situation, of course, in addition to this, there is also a breakthrough in infrared targeting, and it is also necessary to see how the effect is, although it is still just developed, but it is also regarded as an observation and sighting system.
The mechanical stabilization system can only ensure that the muzzle remains at a height, but this does not allow the tank to lock on to the target at any time, if there is no auxiliary system, in the march, the tank is impossible to hit the target, with the double assistance of manual and computer, the tank can be allowed to always aim at a target in the march, in this case, even if the tank has the ability to attack on the move, but the current system is very rudimentary.
Li Zhao doesn't know what the performance will be like when he tests it, but even if the effect is not good, then it is a good start, isn't it? After all, with the concept, the things after that are constantly improving, as long as this tank is made, I think there will be many people willing to join the research team.
Under such circumstances, Li Zhao also made up his mind and prepared to start manufacturing a demonstration vehicle for tanks. Of course, the main part of the factory is the mechanical part, the armor is directly handed over to the tank factory for manufacturing, and the turret is handed over to the military factory, which is responsible for the production of the rest of the parts. With Li Zhao's report handed in, after Su's father asked his superiors for approval, the trial production began, but because it was only a trial production, he only made some simple molds during production.
There is no direct establishment of production lines, nor is there special production equipment for tank production, these need to be finalized before construction, and now direct construction, it is estimated that a lot of equipment may not be suitable for use at that time, so Li Zhao did not directly produce
Equipment. In fact, the main reason is also known to everyone, that is, Li Zhao has not directly manufactured normal tanks after all, and he does not dare to guarantee that his design is foolproof.
As long as the tank is finalized, then it is a problem of production equipment, and the equipment needed, Li Zhao has also roughly provided drawings, and when the time comes, it will be according to the actual situation, and some adjustments will be made, which is easy to say.
