Chapter 51 This kid is a lunatic
"What do you mean is that Xiao Chen's child has started researching the engine and has achieved initial results?" After receiving the news, Long Weiguo also put down his work at the first time and began to pay attention to this matter.
There is no way, the engine project of the sixth-generation engine is really important. Although China has just gained a foothold in chips, as long as it relaxes a little, it will not be known when others will be overwhelmed.
Ordinary people can be silent in the gentle country, but they cannot.
"It's true. I have brought one of the relevant data from Xuannv Laboratory and will be delivered to you at that time. It seems that Old Chen is thinking farther than us." Secretary Qi's words were all impressed by Chen Yuan. After all, who would have thought that he would pay attention to aviation while specializing in chip research.
After Secretary Qi rushed to send the sealed documents to Long Weiguo, he couldn't wait to check them out.
"This is the structural diagram of the engine? OK, I didn't expect the design to be so exquisite." Long Weiguo couldn't help but lit up when he saw the detailed parameters introduction. "The maximum thrust of the Xuannv turbojet engine can reach 40 tons. If calculated in this way, wouldn't it be possible to assemble on the body to reach a speed of Mach 3 or more?!"
"It's like this at the moment." Secretary Qi showed him a data simulation model, which perfectly presented the excellence of the fighter equipped with the Xuannv engine.
"But the development of engines is not a particularly easy task, and it is not impossible to say that it is more difficult than chips."
Long Weiguo is very acknowledged that although he is not in this industry, he knows a little bit. "The difficulties in the research and development of high-performance aerodynamic devices are nothing more than design difficulties, materials and manufacturing difficulties. Components of aircraft engines must work tens of thousands of hours under high temperature, high pressure and high speed conditions, and also ensure high reliability. This not only puts forward almost strict requirements on design, but also on materials and manufacturing."
"If I expected it correctly, Xiao Chen has already fallen into a bottleneck, right?"
"Absolutely, members of Xuannv Laboratory are considering whether to re-overturn the engine's setup, because its realization is very low, but Old Chen seems to be persistent, but I think he needs help from the outside world." Secretary Qi expressed his opinion.
Long Weiguo thought about it carefully and seemed to have made some major decision, "Now is the time for us elders to come forward."
He picked up the phone and called the Aviation Strategy Department. Long Weiguo did not leave the water at all and outlined the matter of Xuannv Laboratory researching the engine.
"Old Bai, I hope your aviation strategy department can dissolve the aviation team, allocate all personnel to the Xuannv Laboratory, and pour all resources into the research of Xuannv Engine."
Bai Yanwei is one of the heads of the Aviation Strategy Department. After hearing Long Weiguo’s request, he felt it was a little incredible, “Old Long, are you kidding?”
In short, the aviation team was formed by the Strategy Department, but in short, it was born by the leader on the top. It was not said that it could be dissolved at will.
"I know Chen Yuan is very outstanding. Not only do you value him, but even Shangfeng also values him very much. But the problem is that his battlefield is only in the semiconductor industry. If you say he is an expert in that field, I don't think anyone can say anything." Bai Yanwei said it was natural. After all, people have achieved their achievements, so who dares to refute it again?
He changed the subject, "But if you say that we should focus all our resources and focus on his project, I really don't dare to make this decision. I don't want to go to the top and take this risk."
Long Weiguo was also silent. Although the other party was not wrong, he wanted to fight for it again. "I have someone send it to you through the intranet. I hope you can seriously consider it after reading it."
Soon, the sound of others talking came from the other side of the phone, and Bai Yanwei's footsteps sounded.
Then the other end of the phone was silent for a long time.
Long Weiguo looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and guessed that Bai Yanwei had almost finished reading it, and asked, "How about it, can you change your mind now?"
After reading several pages of engine research blueprints, Bai Yanwei's breathing began to become rapid. "This kid is so crazy. If you design the Xuannv engine according to the plan on the drawings, once it is really made, its performance is very terrible. Is this really used on ordinary bodies?"
Bai Yanwei asked back.
He is an expert in this field, so he knows too well that the purpose of the Xuannv engine was not to be assembled on ordinary engines from the very beginning.
What does he want to do?
Build a space shuttle?
"This... I don't know much." Long Weiguo was a little embarrassed, "So you decided?"
"Old Long, I'll tell you the truth. Although this blueprint is not all, I felt very shocked after reading it. Maybe I was wrong before. Chen Yuan is indeed a rare genius in the aviation field, but..."
Bai Yanwei paused, "But his ideas were too crazy. The Xuannv engine is indeed a product of advanced nature in theory. It can't be realized at the current material level and technical level."
"And now, the mainstream engines equipped with fighter jets are usually turbojets. Although the fuel consumption is high and the fuel utilization rate limits the combat radius of the fighter to a certain extent, it is exchanged for the important advantages of large thrust and strong maneuverability at high altitudes and high-speed speeds."
"But Xuannv engine is taking the turbofan engine route."
"The turbofan jet engine...he wanted to make a variable cycle engine. To be honest, it was not ideal."
To put it bluntly, the engine's bypass ratio can be changed according to the situation, and freely switch between small thrust, low fuel consumption turbofan mode, large thrust, and high fuel consumption turbojet mode, so that the fighter can achieve the best combat flight effect.
This is the final direction of currently known to solve the shortcomings of turbofan and turbojet, but combined with the terrifying power of Xuannv engine, it makes its achievable less possible.
It was precisely because Bai Yanwei knew this that he felt that Chen Yuan was a little crazy and seemed to think about everything too simply.
But perhaps it was Chen Yuan's crazy behavior that made Bai Yanwei shaken.
The most important thing in scientific research is the research direction. Chen Yuan has already given the best direction. As for whether it is possible to go through it, it would be a pity if he didn't try it.
In the end, Bai Yanwei decided to take great pressure and allocate half of the resources of the strategic department to Xuannv Laboratory.
Chen Yuan soon received a large amount of aviation materials and R&D funds issued by the strategic part.
Looking at the three-story high aviation material container in front of me, I showed a satisfied smile.
"It's not bad, enough for me to keep going for a week."
