Chapter 619 - The Metal Technique Dragon
The two space-specific engines, the pulse detonation engine and the plasma engine, not only have simple structural graphics, but also have various parameters and requirements.
From a performance point of view, it is obvious that each has its own purpose. Some performance indicators are circled with red pens, and the proposed alloy material requirements must meet at least what requirements and data.
These data have very strict requirements on the accuracy of the processing technology and material quality, even more demanding than the old American f119-pw-100 vector propulsion engine. Even the f119-pw-100 vector propulsion engine cannot be mass-produced in China, let alone this A more demanding space engine.
This is going to be installed on the space shuttle.
Lin Mo quickly began to communicate with the gold-type dragon on his left wrist in his mind, searching for a suitable formula. The detonation wave generated by detonation combustion causes the pressure and temperature of the detonable fuel to rapidly increase (the pressure can be as high as 100 atmospheres and the temperature can be as high as 2000c). Therefore, the detonation combustion engine can achieve the purpose of compressing the gas without using traditional compressor and turbine components, greatly simplifying the structure and greatly reducing the cost. In addition, because the detonation wave propagates extremely fast, reaching several kilometers per second, when the detonation frequency is very high (up to 80~100hz), continuous thrust can be generated. If used to fly outside the gravitational circle, it has a very high cost performance and can climb to heights that even fighter jets cannot reach. The American "Aurora" high-altitude and high-speed reconnaissance aircraft uses pulse detonation engines, which can reach an astonishing speed of Mach 7. It can fly unscrupulously in the airspace of any country and take photos. The plasma engine is likely to be a special engine for space navigation after the pulse detonation engine enters space. It uses the Lorentz force to accelerate charged atoms or ions through the magnetic field. To reversely drive the spacecraft, it is the same principle as particle accelerators and rail guns. Unlike rocket engines that consume thousands of tons of propellant in just a few minutes, plasma engines provide relatively little thrust for a certain period of time and then once into space. They will be like sailboats with a favorable wind, gradually accelerating and accumulating propulsion until their speed exceeds that of chemical rockets. The full-power variable specific impulse magnetic plasma engine like the one in Lin Mo's hand can shorten the time to land on Mars from 250 days to 39 days. It takes more than a month to reach Mars, which is as far as the solar system can go. . Do we really need to start building a star fleet? Lin Mo touched his chin. With a huge investment of 500 billion, there will be almost 100 aircraft carriers, enough to completely transfer rice to the United States. The investment cost of the International Space Station is almost more than 100 billion US dollars. With the current level of technological advancement, although the "Buzhoushan" space station is larger in size, the cost will not necessarily be higher. "Ask him if he has any experimental prototypes, and we can take the opportunity to analyze them." This information is naturally like a glutton. After arousing the greed of the giant metal dragon, you can feel full and warm, and have no worries about eating and drinking. This dragon, who is comparable to a professional worker, has simply degenerated into a technical geek. This guy is now an unswerving supporter of two ordinary people. Anything related to technology should be packed and taken home to study carefully. Any metal you haven't eaten before will take a bite before you are willing to die. "Do you have any experimental subjects?" Lin Mo read the information carefully and looked up at Major General Sun. Based on the principle of equal exchange, Lin Mo could not force the dragon to hand over the alloy formula. He still regarded the idea of the metal dragon as his own. "Look at the experimental subject? This, this is a bit difficult, wait! Let me ask for instructions first." Major General Sun was a little embarrassed. This level of confidentiality was higher, and people other than relevant personnel could not access this kind of thing. After all, there was someone to ask for, and it was impossible to keep Lin Mo here permanently copying the alloy formula. In order to ensure that the alloy formula he scooped up met the requirements, he still got up and made a phone call to ask for instructions from his superiors. After a while, he returned to the sofa and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to see it." If it weren't for Lin Mo's status as an aviation expert, no one above would agree to Lin Mo's request. Pilots are future astronauts, and aviation experts may also become future aerospace experts. It has to be said that the Ministry of Aerospace also plays a role in the aviation industry. A man who pieced together a fighter jet that at least seemed to be a fourth-generation fighter in his lifetime already made people feel evil enough. God knows how far Lin Mo will grow in the future. Following Major General Sun, we took the elevator straight to the fourth floor of the palace building. There was a cave underneath this seemingly inconspicuous building. It seemed to be an underground defense project that could withstand nuclear level 8. Digging holes deep and accumulating grain widely, this slogan of the original Cold War between East and West, does not seem to be just a temporary response to the call of the dang as many people understand it. In fact, the real originator of this slogan in modern times is the Ministry of Space. The Zhenbao Island incident occurred on March 2, 1969, which triggered a confrontation between the two major powers, China and the Soviet Union. On August 28 of the same year, the "Washington Star" published a piece of news in a prominent position, titled "The Soviet Union intends to carry out a surgical nuclear strike against China." The article said: "According to reliable information, the Soviet Union intends to use medium-range ballistic missiles carrying nuclear warheads with a yield of several million tons against China's important military bases - Jiuquan, Xichang missile launch bases, and the Lop Nur nuclear test "Surgical nuclear strikes will be carried out on base areas, as well as important industrial cities such as Beijing, Changchun, and Anshan." Mao Zedong decisively put forward the policy of "dig holes deeply, accumulate grain widely, and do not call dams". The country soon entered a war situation of "preparing for war". Many enterprises turned to military production, and the national and civilian economies began to Turning to the state of war, a large number of factories moved to mountainous areas and third-line areas with congested traffic, implementing a "mountain, scattered, and cave" configuration, and digging underground fortifications in big cities such as Beijing. As one of the important bases of the Ministry of Aerospace in Jiuquan, the 5th Training Center directly started the deep digging project at the beginning of the planning. Lin Mo followed Major General Sun and walked through a long passage, maybe two kilometers long, maybe five kilometers long. It was so wide that four tanks could run parallel to each other. In the deep passage, all that could be seen was the same cement gray, with hangings hanging on the walls. There are communication optical cables and power supply lines, and lights that will never go out are hung on the top. I am afraid that maintaining this underground project will require considerable investment. Lin followed Major General Sun silently, keeping his mouth shut and staring at the ground under his feet, not looking around to avoid unnecessary curiosity. In a place like this, even if a cat had nine hundred lives, it would still be spoiled by curiosity. When passing by the security gate, Lin Mo saw gun-wielding soldiers guarding each node. They were all operated manually and there was no possibility of being invaded by the network. A large room, about more than 800 square meters, extremely empty, with not a single pillar in sight. Honeycomb-shaped sound-absorbing sponge blocks are embedded at regular intervals on the walls, so that the sound of walking and talking will not be unusual. echo. Although I don’t know how deep this place is, there is absolutely no darkness or humidity. Instead, the temperature is very pleasant. The top of the six-meter-high ceiling is made up of LED light panels. When you look up, you will see a dazzling white snow. Everything in the room was illuminated in detail. "arrive!" After Major General Sun brought Lin Mo into this empty room, he stopped. When he came in, Lin Mo looked at the sign on the door, "9d". Perhaps there are many more rooms like this. Although I don't know what they are used for, looking at how big they are, there is no problem in using them for storage, warehouses, or production workshops. Such places are also very common in the underground base of the "Dark Night" Special Service Brigade. Usually, such vacant places are called standby areas, which means waiting for use anyway. Seeing Lin Mo turning his head and looking around, Major General Sun seemed to have guessed Lin Mo's thoughts and said: "Don't worry, wait a moment, they are sending them here. The level of confidentiality here is very high. I don't have the freedom to take you there." When you go to the production workshop, you can only ask them to bring things out and let you take a look." After a while, two battery vehicles dragging a wheeled platform slowly drove in from the door where Lin Mo and Major General Sun came in. There were also several gun-wielding soldiers wearing digital single-tactical armor, Bing Fengxu, who locked the door. Lin Mo took a look, and they looked familiar. The enhanced version of Henghai Combat Defense's "Dragon Guard" was worn in North America. It is half a version higher than the standard version worn by the "Dark Night" Special Service Brigade Combat Squadron. The Aerospace Department cannot scoop up the Dragon General, because the only "Dragon General" experimental tactical armor is currently wearing Lin Mo. The soldiers were stunned when they saw Lin Mo wearing the "Dragon General" tactical armor. They had never seen this before. The "Dragon Guard" system automatically recognized the "Dragon General" and almost subconsciously thought it was an earth warrior. All the commanders in Xiajilu District unanimously saluted Lin Mo. This is due to the difference in tactical armor levels. The performance of "Dragon General" is obviously more powerful. "Yeah! Well! Good job, comrades!" Lin Mo waved his hand and gave a Patton-style salute and accepted it happily. Major General Sun couldn't help but smile on his face. This guy really regarded this place as his own territory. Several technicians wearing special all-in-one dust-free work clothes jumped out of the car and parked two wheeled platforms next to Lin Mo and Major General Sun. "The V-11 pulse shock engine and the vasimr-5a5 magnetic plasma engine are delivered and will be recovered in half an hour!" A technician delivers a folder, even if it is taken out of the production workshop, there is a time limit. "Thank you!" Major General Sun signed for it. After signing, he winked at Lin Mo and said, "Take a look!"
