After coming to the metal composite materials laboratory, Wang Hao did not do anything superfluous and directly entered the research work.

He explained the situation to Luan Yongshang.

Luan Yongshang finally learned that their joint project with the Anti-Gravity Center is to research new materials that are in line with the 'light energy magnetization power generation technology'.

Luan Yongshang had seen 'light energy magnetization power generation' before, but it was only a few words of expression, the specific situation was completely unclear, his level was still a little insufficient, and he didn't even know the existence of the annihilation force field experimental group, and now he knew the specific situation of the project, and only then did he understand that the research was related to the 'light-to-electricity' technology of the light-pressure engine.

This made Luan Yongshang feel very excited and excited, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no wonder Wang Hao came to the metal laboratory in person.

The light-pressure engine project of Spaceship Industry Co., Ltd. is a hot topic in the world, and it sounds very incredible that a space engine technology that far exceeds the existing technology of mankind has really been put into research.

With shock and excitement, Luan Yongshang introduced several composite materials related to the project, especially TG-315.

"TG-315 is a mixture of several first-order elements, according to the requirements of the anti-gravity center, the new material must have conductive properties, reduce resistance as much as possible, and also need to have a magnetization effect under field force, and be used for light energy conversion ......"

"We have several plans and are working on two of them, but several have not yet been implemented due to the limited first-order materials......"

"The three materials sent were all made of titanium-silver alloys, as well as silicon compounds."

"The material ratio is based on experience, and there are several other schemes......"

Luan Yongshang introduced seriously.

Their main research direction is metal composite materials, which are new materials composed of material components with different properties.

This material is composed of two or more materials with different chemical and physical properties in the designed form, proportion and distribution, the purpose is to maintain the advantages of the properties of each component material, and through the complementarity and correlation of talent and performance, the comprehensive properties that cannot be achieved by a single component material can be obtained.

The materials required for optical magnetization power generation technology must have the characteristics of strong magnetization, optical conversion, strong electrical conductivity and high temperature resistance.

Taken together, these characteristics are clearly not achievable with a single material.

Composites can do just that.

After Wang Hao learned carefully, he followed the tour of the operation room of the laboratory, and then shook his head and said, "You take all the research materials of the experiment, and we will study them in detail." ”

"The purpose of our visit this time is to work together to develop a material that is more in line with technical needs based on TG-315."

After he finished speaking, he added, "Don't worry, Professor Luan, all the funding for the research is taken care of by the Anti-Gravity Center, and you can only invest it with confidence." ”

This must be emphasized.

The Metal Composites Laboratory is only a provincial scientific research institution, and the funds they allocate every year are very limited, and many projects need to be funded by the National Scientific Research Foundation.

The cooperation project with the anti-gravity center requires the use of a variety of first-order materials, and the normal internal purchase price makes the scalp tingle.

Wang Hao talked about the funding problem, so he directly called the Annihilation Technology Company and asked them to send over more than a dozen first-order materials needed for research, and then studied the materials with others.

……

Luan Yongshang found Li Guowei and Meng Zheng and asked them to explain the information to Wang Hao's team, and he went back to the office to 'calm down'.

What happened now made him a little relieved, Wang Hao suddenly came to the laboratory, and then quickly established the start of the material research and development project.

This quickly skips a lot of steps.

Even though the materials developed are very important, they still feel that they are too fast, they are just a materials laboratory, and the light energy magnetization power generation technology needs to be verified experimentally.

"In other words, Academician Wang is devoting himself to materials research."

"As for material testing, it is estimated that the anti-gravity center will carry it out, and he will lead the research and development of materials, but why did he come here directly......

Luan Yongshang patted his head hard, feeling that he couldn't figure it out anymore, so he simply stopped thinking about it, just what Academician Wang Hao wanted to do.

He quickly felt the benefits of doing research with Wang Hao.

First of all, there is the material.

The next day, Annihilation Technology Company sent a batch of first-order materials, including more than a dozen metal materials, including elemental materials such as carbon, silicon, and sulfur, as well as gaseous materials such as hydrogen and oxygen.

This batch of materials was sent to the laboratory, and the researchers who saw it were red-eyed.

Not to mention whether they can buy so many first-order materials, even if they can buy them directly, they don't have so much money.

"Tens of millions, right? Minimum ......"

"You can't buy those gaseous materials at all."

"You can't buy carbon or sulfur!"

"These are prohibited materials that are only available to large institutions and in very limited quantities......"

Judging from the materials transported, Luan Yongshang also knew Wang Hao's determination, he must solve the problem in the metal composite laboratory.

After the material was shipped, the experiment was not directly opened.

Wang Hao and his entourage are still studying the experimental data, and the researchers involved in TG-315 are also circling around the experimental data, they are mainly to help explain and conduct certain analysis.

After fully understanding the information, Wang Hao organized a research meeting, and the participating researchers sat on both sides.

One is Luan Yongshang, Li Guowei, Meng Zheng and others, who represent the metal composite laboratory.

On the other side are Wang Shanqing, Zhang Chunli and others, who represent the anti-gravity center (solar magnetization power generation technology team).

Wang Hao asked everyone to express their views on material research, mainly on the side of the metal materials laboratory, after a large number of material manufacturing experimental data, his inspiration value has increased to more than 80 points, plus some gains at the meeting, the inspiration value quickly exceeded 100 points.

After the meeting, he used the inspiration to find ways to improve the properties of the material.

The next step is to explain the work.

Wang Hao did not ask for other people's opinions, but directly explained which processes to improve, and then asked the laboratory to prepare for the development of new materials.

Soon.

Three days passed.

The new materials were finally manufactured, and Wang Hao asked Wang Shanqing and Zhang Chunli to return to the Annihilation Force Field Experimental Group with the materials.

This is where material testing can take place.

In order to carry out the test faster, Wang Hao also asked the military to cooperate with the use of aircraft transportation, and after the materials were sent to Xihai Airport, they were transported to the annihilation force field experimental group by helicopter.

Wang Shanqing and Zhang Chunli also quickly put themselves into work.

The next day, the test results of the new materials came out, and Wang Shanqing reported with excitement, "At 1120 degrees Celsius, the light-to-electricity efficiency of the new materials is still more than 20%!" ”

This result is much more powerful than the TG-315.

Luan Yongshang was standing next to Wang Hao, and he was also very excited when he heard the results, "Academician Wang, TG-315 is only 960 degrees Celsius, and it has increased by 160 degrees all of a sudden!" ”

He was very surprised and excited.

Luan Yongshang already has a certain understanding of solar magnetization power generation technology, so he naturally knows how high the requirements for materials this technology are.

In the past, it is not possible to complete in a short period of time if you want to have obvious results in the research of composite materials with similar high requirements.

The results now turn perception upside down.

They just provided experimental data, and then held a brief R&D meeting, and then began to explain the manufacturing of new materials, and then the performance of the new materials manufactured has been greatly improved?

The process is simply incredible!

"Is there any trick to the study of composite materials?"

"How did it get to Academician Wang so easily? And we, who have studied composite materials all our lives, have not found any clear laws? ”

Luan Yongshang shook his head with a wry smile.

Of course, there are theories and experiences to refer to in the research of composite materials, but whether it is theory or experience, it is often ineffective when it comes to the experimental manufacturing stage.

The study of composite materials, or in other words, the study of materials in any field, is more than 90% luck plus 10% theoretical experience.

Obviously, the role of theoretical experience is not obvious.

In the case of very good luck, it is possible to develop high-performance materials without theoretical experience; With only theoretical experience and lack of luck, no matter how much money and energy are invested, it may end up with nothing.

Now that Luan Yongshang looked at the result, he could only sigh, "Academician Wang, it's really amazing...... he was puzzled, Wang Hao's face was not excited, and even a little dissatisfied.

He asked in a low voice, "Academician Wang, isn't the data a big improvement?" ”

"The lift is still too small."

Wang Hao shook his head and said.

"It's still a small ...... to raise 160 degrees all of a sudden" Luan Yongshang looked puzzled and continued to ask, "Academician Wang, you haven't said what our research goal is?" ”

"Hmm~"

Wang Hao thought for a moment and said, "The temperature data should be more than 2,000 degrees, and the light energy conversion rate should be significantly more than 30%. ”

He adds, "Actually, initially, this technology did not require conversion rate, but when used in a light-pressure engine, it must require conversion rate, otherwise too much useless heat will be created." ”

"In space, heat dissipation is a big problem."

Luan Yongshang understood.

Heat dissipation in space is indeed a big problem, and when it was in a vacuum environment, most of it relied on radiation heat dissipation.

If you are in an enclosed space, it will be more difficult to dissipate heat.

Wang Hao continued, "Electricity generation does not have to be in an enclosed space, but if it is pure heat, the temperature of the substance will continue to rise. ”

"So, we have a temperature requirement for the material, preferably more than 2,000 degrees."

"This data is the only way to ensure the temperature balance."

Temperature equilibrium, that is, the balance between heat production and heat dissipation, does not rise in temperature of conductors and other substances.

At this time, Li Guowei suddenly spoke, "Academician Wang, the requirement of 2,000 degrees is indeed too high. There is an upper limit to the bearing temperature of the material, and the melting point of the new material is only 1500 degrees Celsius, if it is 2,000 degrees, it will definitely melt into a liquid, and no matter how high the temperature is, the sulfide in it will vaporize. ”

"In order to ensure the magnetization characteristics of this new composite material, some elements are not first-order, and it is impossible to ensure that every raw material has a high melting point ......"

"If 2,000 degrees is required, the melted liquid material still needs to have optically converted electricity."

Li Guowei said it in a flat tone, he was discussing the issue on a case-by-case basis, but in the ears of others, it was like questioning Wang Hao.

Luan Yongshang suddenly glared at him dissatisfied.

Meng Zheng also pushed him.

Wang Hao was full of joy when he heard this, he received the inspiration boost prompted by the system, and immediately said seriously, "Professor Li, you go on." ”

"Huh?"

Li Guowei was stunned for a moment.

He also realized that what he said just now was inappropriate, and thought that Wang Hao would be very dissatisfied, but he let himself continue, he thought about it and said stubbornly, "I think so." ”

"It's easy to keep the material moving from light to electricity in the case of a liquid, but it's too difficult to maintain the conductivity."

"To solve this problem, add a liquid active metal, such as lithium."

"Lithium has a very low melting point, but its outer electrons are very active, so the material can continue to be highly active in the molten state......"

After Li Guowei finished speaking, Wang Hao nodded affirmatively, "It makes sense!" Professor Li, your idea is so good. ”

He was very happy indeed.

Li Guowei's idea suddenly increased his inspiration value by '45 points', and he was sure that it was the right direction, and he immediately gathered others to study it together.

Soon.

New material manufacturing solutions are introduced.

In the new material proposal, they added first-order lithium compounds and discussed the process of adding lithium compounds.

The next step is to enter the experimental manufacturing.

After another three days, the second new material was manufactured and immediately transported to the Annihilation Force Field Experimental Base for Wang Shanqing's team to test.

This time the test was different from the last time.

The last material tested was a solid with a high melting point, which only needs to be processed into thin sheets and placed in the field force to be inspected.

In today's new materials, there is a component that has a very low melting point, and when heated to more than 1,000 degrees Celsius, some of it melts into liquid, and the properties of the material become very unstable.

Wang Shanqing and Zhang Chunli came up with a plan, which is to use high-temperature resistant translucent tubes to load materials, and then place them in the field force for testing, while high-temperature translucent tubes can not be obtained directly, and need to wait for cooperative factories to manufacture.

"Academician Wang, they said that they would have to wait at least a week."

Wang Shanqing made a report.

Wang Hao knew very well that it was impossible to test at the first time, but he didn't care too much, Li Guowei's idea allowed them to find a new direction.

With a new direction, the inspiration value is constantly increasing.

This also makes the new material manufacturing enter the high-yield stage, Wang Hao held several research meetings, and formulated six new material manufacturing plans.

Now it's all that remains to wait.
