In Mars City No. 1, Lu Yongchang in the laboratory frowned.

The principle of electromagnetic railgun is very simple, and its basic principle is magnetic field force.

In simplest terms, a magnetic field will have a force effect on charged objects.

At the micro level, this force is the so-called Lorentz force, and at the macro level, it is the ampere force.

In the 19th century, Faraday discovered electromagnetic induction, and in the early 20th century, some people proposed the conjecture to launch shells with the help of ampere force.

Although the principle is simple, it is not an easy task to develop an electromagnetic cannon suitable for interstellar war.

Human civilization's research on electromagnetic railguns has never been interrupted, but it has never been able to replace gunpowder weapons.

In order to adapt to the interstellar war, what Lu Yongchang had to do was nothing more than increase the power of the electromagnetic cannon.

The power of the electromagnetic gun mainly depends on the mass of the projectile and the initial speed after the barreling.

Thinking of this, Lu Yongchang turned his head and asked Professor Yevgeny on the side.

"Yevgeni, what is the power of the most powerful electromagnetic cannon at present?"

Hearing this question, Yevgeny replied quickly without thinking, "Professor, IMHO, those electromagnetic guns are very weak."

"Maybe it can replace some shells on Earth, but when it comes to the universe, their power is still too weak!"

"What do you mean?" Lu Yongchang raised his eyebrows gently and asked again.

Yevgeny shrugged and reported several data: "The most powerful electromagnetic cannon at present is just to accelerate the projectile of about 10kg to a speed of about Mach 10."

"Of course, this is also because the research and development projects of various weapons have stagnated after the solar crisis."

"After all, there were no such things as controlled nuclear fusion."

Lu Yongchang nodded thoughtfully.

"Mach 10...this is indeed a bit slow."

The velocity of 3400m/s... in the universe, it is like a snail.

It can't even match the speed of the Luan Bird Starship!

"Professor, how much do you think we should focus on?" Yevgeny's voice interrupted Lu Yongchang's meditation.

"The target...the bore-out speed must be at least 5000km/s."

“…”

In the laboratory, it was quiet.

All researchers, including Yevgeny, stared at Lu Yongchang with their eyes wide open.

"First speed of 5000km/s?!" Yevgeny's breathing rapidly, his face turned slightly red, "Professor Lu, do you think this is possible?!"

Lu Yongchang was silent for a while.

Instead of answering Yevgeni's words in a direct manner, he shouted to the camera beside him.

"Zero, simulate according to ideal conditions. How much can the fusion reactor on the Luanniao Starship increase the initial speed of the electromagnetic gun to?"

The holographic image unfolds instantly.

A string of data flashed across it.

In a plain tone, he responded: "Professor, according to the calculation, if the starship power and various problems are not considered, it can accelerate a standard projectile to 20,000 kilometers per second."

"Here." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Lu Yongchang's mouth, "Look, 5,000 kilometers per second is still a short time."

Yevgeny looked at the calculation process on the holographic image and swallowed slightly.

"Professor, you are even more...crazy than I thought!"

As he said that, Yevgeny looked at Lu Yongchang with admiration.

According to the simulation of zero, to achieve such an effect, the entire Luan Bird Starship basically has only one function left.

fire!

As a loyal believer in the caliber of justice, Yevgeny swore that even he had never thought of such an exaggerated thing!

Lu Yongchang happily accepted Yevgeny's 'praise': "Be calm, the phoenix starship is still too small."

"If you enlarge the size of the starship ten times, you may not feel exaggerated."

Yevgeny looked at Lu Yongchang with a numb expression.

Is this human word?

He rubbed his temples with a headache and skipped the topic: "But even if the energy problem is solved, we don't have the energy storage device that can carry its emissions now."

This is the biggest problem that limits electromagnetic guns.

Needless to say, what electromagnetic guns need is extremely fast energy release and charging technology.

The issue of energy release is related to the power of the electromagnetic gun.

What the electromagnetic gun requires is instantaneous power, and energy storage equipment needs to release the stored electricity at one time in a very short time.

The charging problem is related to the continuous combat capability of the electromagnetic gun.

It's impossible to take a few hours of buffering time after firing a shell, right?

Of course, under the premise of fast charging and discharging, energy storage equipment still has a hard requirement.

Capacity of energy storage equipment.

If you want to take into account these three requirements... Yevgeny is sure that humans at present have absolutely no such exaggerated energy storage technology.

Faced with Yevgeny's doubts, Lu Yongchang nodded calmly: "Don't worry, don't worry about energy storage technology."

“I already have a solution.”

"What you have to do is complete the infrastructure of the electromagnetic gun."

Yevgeny: “…???”

At this moment, his eyes were full of suspicion about himself.

When did he take on such an easy R&D task?

As long as the infrastructure of the electromagnetic gun is completed, is that all?

He took a deep breath and nodded silently.

"Professor, I'll listen to you."

Lu Yongchang smiled and patted the strong back of the Su man in front of him: "Come on."

"I hope I can see results within half a month."

After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly towards his office.

He needs to realize the inspiration that flashes through his mind!

Yevgeny's face froze: "..."

Now, he decided to take back his previous sigh.

This tm is a task that people can complete?!

"Wait, wait, professor, half a month? Did you say the wrong time?!"

Yevgeny followed Lu Yongchang with a hurried look on his face and asked.

Naturally, Lu Yongchang did not stop himself, but waved his hand and left a word.

"Believe in yourself, you can do it."

Looking at Lu Yongchang's figure as he went away, Yevgeny's eyes twitched violently twice.

"Be calm, Professor Yevgeni." A former Xia Guo scientific researcher took a step forward and patted Yevgeni's shoulder comfortably, "Just get used to it."

"Professor Lu's scientific research tasks have always been like this."

"We just need to sleep less in the past half month."

Yevgeny turned his head and looked at the smiling researchers numbly.

"Do you usually do this?"

Several yellow-skinned researchers nodded with a smile and said in unison: "Of course!"
Chapter completed!
