Capital University, in front of the Government Affairs Building.
Dou Yan had just returned from Xihai City. He held his briefcase in one hand and walked hurriedly ahead with his head half lowered, looking a little lonely.
Zhang Xiqin, the vice president of the university, was walking out of the building door. He turned his head and saw Dou Yan. He pressed his glasses with his hand and shouted in surprise, "Professor Dou!"
Dou Yan stopped when he heard the shouting, with a polite smile on his face, "Xiao Zhang."
Zhang Xiqin walked over enthusiastically and asked, "It's really you. I just saw you from a distance. Why did you come back so soon? I thought you were going to stay in Xihai for a few days."
Dou Yan put on a smile and said nothing.
Zhang Xiqin continued to ask, "How about going to the West China Sea? Have you seen the prototype you designed?"
Dou Yan nodded.
"How does the prototype work? Does it meet expectations?"
Dou Yan nodded vigorously, then let out a long sigh.
Zhang Xiqin frowned slightly, looked around at Dou Yan and felt a little strange, and asked, "What's going on? Professor Dou, I think there's something wrong with your mood?"
After he finished speaking, he continued to stare.
Dou Yan faced each other hard and sighed again, "It's hard to explain in words!"
"What's wrong?" Zhang Xiqin asked curiously, "Are you in a bad mood?"
Dou Yan didn't want to say anything at first, but Zhang Xiqin kept asking. He organized his words and said, "You can't imagine, Colonel Zhang, how I felt after seeing the prototype..."
"This time I went to Xihai and saw the superconducting motor we designed ourselves. It was completely unexpected. It felt like..."
"Let me describe it to you this way!"
Dou Yan put his briefcase on the stone pillar of the flower bed and then said, "My mood now is just like when I was a child, around ten years old, when my parents took me to the Science and Technology Museum in the west of Sydney."
"After I came out of the Science and Technology Museum, I was thinking about those things... they look so technological and high-end!"
“My heart is full of sighs!”
Zhang Xiqin was stunned. He thought carefully for a long time, but still didn't understand Dou Yan's words, so he asked, "Isn't that your design?"
"Yes, but no." Dou Yan said forcefully, "Anyway, it's very high-end. I can't imagine it or understand it. It's like I went to see a high-tech exhibition..."
"Alas~~~"
Dou Yan shook his head and finished speaking, not wanting to explain any more.
His mood is indeed very complicated.
Originally, I went to see the superconducting motor designed by my team, and I thought I would go over for guidance if I had any questions. But I saw a very high-end product. Whether it was performance parameters, power control, or stability, it was beyond imagination.
Is that a superconducting motor designed by your own team?
No!
"Perhaps Academician Wang Hao came to Capital University to design, not because of how good the design is, but because the other party accidentally saw his design? He didn't want to bother anymore and went to find other teams to look at other designs?"
"It's very possible!"
"That should be it..."
…
Xihai University, Mechanical Automation Laboratory.
The testing of superconducting motors is still continuing. High-power, long-term operation tests are being carried out to see if any problems will occur during high-intensity operation.
Wang Hao is not worried about the testing of superconducting motors, because the structure of superconducting motors is relatively simple. In fact, it can be understood that on the basis of traditional motors, a large amount of superconducting materials are used, and a cooling system is added.
Just add an electronic control system.
Precisely because the structure is relatively simple, any problems that arise during testing will not become insurmountable problems.
As long as the high-intensity operation test is completed and a series of basic tests are carried out, the superconducting motor can be finalized and manufactured.
Now they can rely on the power parameter data of superconducting motors to support the design of anti-gravity aircraft.
In the design of anti-gravity aircraft, the superconducting motor is a very important part, and it is a decisive part of the overall design. The power parameters of the superconducting motor can directly affect other aspects of the design.
In fact, just like an aerospace engine directly affects the design of a fighter jet, the engine is the core component of a conventional aircraft, and the parameters of the engine directly affect the design of other parts of the aircraft.
It is the same now. The core of an anti-gravity aircraft is a superconducting battery, but the superconducting motor driving the propeller is the source of power for the aircraft.
After determining the parameters of the power source, other aspects of the design can be determined through calculations.
In this way, the overall design plan for the second prototype can be finalized.
In fact, during the research process of superconducting motors, most of the designs in other directions have been completed, and all that is missing is to determine the parameters of the motor.
The parameters of the motor directly affect the design of the propeller fan, and the design of the propeller fan directly affects the performance of the propeller and, more recently, the power system.
After determining the power system, other aspects of the plan can be finalized.
Compared with the first prototype, the main direction of the second prototype is to increase flexibility, safety and stability. In addition, it is also necessary to consider the need for increased internal space and military orientation.
The main difficulty lies in the balance between the superconducting battery and the anti-gravity system, as well as the stability of the aircraft cooling system.
The cooling body of an aircraft is crucial. Whether it is the anti-gravity system, the maintenance of superconducting batteries or the operation of superconducting motors, they are all inseparable from the support of the cooling system.
Therefore, they have come up with several solutions for the cooling system of the aircraft.
Wang Hao finally chose the safest option. It didn't matter even if it added extra weight. Ensuring safety performance was the most important thing.
In addition, the design plan also needs to consider the needs of other parts.
For example, radar and electronic countermeasures systems.
It is enough for ordinary aircraft to install radar systems, but anti-gravity aircraft must have electronic countermeasures systems. The purpose is not for electronic warfare, but only for safety reasons.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There are three advantages of anti-gravity aircraft. One is high-altitude combat, which can fly at an altitude of more than 40,000 meters. The second point is flexibility, which is more flexible than ordinary fighters.
, allowing the aircraft to easily avoid incoming missiles. The last point is the high bomb load.
Let’s not talk about the last point for now.
If you want to demonstrate the advantages of high-altitude combat and flexibility, you must have excellent radar and the communication system cannot be interfered with.
No matter how ferocious a beast is, if it loses its eyes, it can only become food for other predators.
When the enemy faces an anti-gravity aircraft with flexible combat capabilities at high altitudes, conventional air defense does not work, and anti-missile missiles can be easily avoided, electronic warfare will inevitably be used. To put it simply, electronic warfare is used.
Combat platform to interfere with the radar of anti-gravity aircraft.
If an anti-gravity aircraft loses its 'eyes' and cannot detect incoming missiles in advance, it will be in a very dangerous situation.
Therefore, the aircraft must have the ability to resist electronic warfare.
The electronic countermeasures system is not just about installing a radar, but a whole set of equipment, which takes up a lot of space.
The design of anti-gravity aircraft also needs to reserve a fixed direction and a fixed size of space. It is also necessary to consider the interference of the aircraft itself to electronic signals. Not only does it need to communicate with relevant research institutions, but it also needs to be demonstrated in detail.
These are all difficult places.
Of course, even though there are various problems in the design of the second prototype and many new challenges, everyone in the anti-gravity aircraft research team is very excited because they have completed the first prototype and many real
Difficult issues have been resolved.
All the problems we are facing now are incomparable to the ‘insurmountable’ superconducting battery.
Many countries and companies in the world have organized teams to study anti-gravity aircraft. The only big problem they face is the power support of the anti-gravity system.
Compared to the problem of power support, everything else is not a problem at all.
So everyone is looking forward to it.
They devoted 100% of their energy to participate in the design research work, constantly thought and discussed every part, and quickly finalized some plans in succession. The design work progressed very smoothly.
When everyone is working hard, Wang Hao, like everyone else, puts all your time into your work.
He is busier than other people's work.
Others just think of solutions and new design plans, while he needs to constantly hold meetings to knock on every detail of the design.
When it came to the design of the second aircraft, Wang Hao could be described as a hands-on person, down to the smallest details of every component, and he had to take a look at it in front of him.
Others admire Wang Hao very much. They think that even if they have the ability to calculate, they cannot achieve this level.
The interior of an anti-gravity aircraft is very complex, and even the design of some small parts, directions and shapes need to be discussed in detail.
To be continued...
