After listening to Zhang Yi's words, Huang Xiru said nothing more. After all, since Zhang Yi had already arranged measures in these aspects in advance, she didn't have to worry about anything. Indeed, except for the countries of the Dahua Empire, no one has access to these technologies.

It can ensure that these technologies will not be stolen.

"Okay! We'll talk about these things later. Let's take a look at the properties of these materials first."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Yi looked at the latest alloy material developed by Song Sicheng. According to the data, this is a very powerful special alloy. Its main raw material is steel, and rare metals such as hafnium and titanium are also added.

Material.

This special steel is very light in weight, even the same weight as aluminum alloy, but its strength, hardness, stress, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, corrosion resistance and other properties far exceed that of aluminum alloy materials, and even

Titanium alloy is far from comparable. It can be said that like ordinary titanium alloy, it is an extremely ideal aerospace alloy material.

At the same time, it also has advantages that ordinary titanium alloys cannot have. First of all, the high temperature resistance of this material. The melting point of ordinary titanium alloy materials is generally around 1,780 degrees. The ideal working environment is below 1,000 degrees. Song Chengsi

The melting point of this alloy developed is as high as 3,700 degrees, and it can work at a high temperature of nearly 3,000 degrees for a long time without deterioration. At the same time, the coefficient of thermal expansion is also very low.

However, this material also has the same shortcomings as titanium alloy, that is, the manufacturing price is very high, even twice as high as ordinary titanium alloy materials.

The second material is a graphene high-temperature superconductor material. This high-temperature superconductor has very excellent superconducting properties, and its melting point is even higher than that of the previous alloy material, reaching more than 3,500 degrees.

, and at a temperature of more than 2,600 degrees, its superconducting performance will not show an obvious downward trend.

It can be said that these two materials are very good aerospace materials. However, the manufacturing price of these two materials is very high and they can only be used in a small range and cannot be popularized at all.

"Mr. Song! The two materials developed in our laboratory are both very excellent new materials, but they still have big shortcomings. That is, the cost of these two materials is too high. Either one of these two materials

The cost of this kind of material is more than 10,000 yuan per gram. Such a price is destined to not be popularized. We only use it in a small area. I wonder if Mr. Song has any way to solve this problem?" Zhang Yi asked.

"I don't have any good solutions in terms of cost. After all, these two materials use some rare metal materials, and the prices of these rare metal materials are very expensive. But without these metal materials, the performance of the material will be reduced."

It will drop significantly, but if it is produced on a large scale in the future, the production cost may be reduced, but not by much unless we can get cheap materials." Mr. Song said.

After staying in the materials laboratory for a while, Zhang Yi and Huang Xiru went to the photonic computer laboratory, where they also saw the photonic components developed by the photon laboratory.

In other words, with the successful development of photonic components in the Photon Laboratory, the development of photonic computers by their Colorful Stone Group has also entered a new stage. According to the personnel of the Photon Computer Laboratory, the first photonic computer in their laboratory will be in

It came out within a month, which made Zhang Yi very excited.

At the last moment, Zhang Yicai and Huang Xiru came to the electric aerospace engine laboratory of Qicai Stone Group. At this time, there was a huge engine in the center of the laboratory. The length of this engine was at least five meters, and its diameter

It is at least 80 centimeters or more, and the engine nozzle is at least 60 centimeters.

This made Zhang Yi very confused. You must know that before he went to Qicaishi Group to acquire the shipyard last time, he had already told Mr. Qi and Mr. Lu, the current heads of the laboratory, to let them focus their main efforts on

On top of small electric aero engines, let’s put this type of large electric aero engines first. After all, large electric aero engines have a huge demand for electricity. The batteries developed at the current level of human technology cannot supply such engines at all.

Electricity demand.

But he frowned and blamed the two white-haired people in charge of the laboratory, so he said: "Mr. Qi! Mr. Lu! This engine is??"

"Boss! I know what you mean. You have said before that we should focus on developing small and high-thrust electric aero engines. However, we have no interest in these small electric aero engines for civilian use. At the same time, we

It's not in line with our status, so I handed this matter over to the original person in charge of your laboratory, Qian Gong and the others. The most we can do is provide guidance.

But even so, the progress of small electric aero engines is still very fast, and it will definitely produce results in a short time.

As for the engine in our laboratory, it is actually not an aerospace engine, but an aerospace engine."

""

After listening to Lao Lu's words, Zhang Yi was speechless for a while, but it was normal to think about it. As a top scientist before the first-level civilization, he did have a share in developing civilian micro-aviation engines. It's no wonder that Lao Lu and the others were not happy.

.

So, he walked around the aerospace engine mentioned by Lao Lu and found that this engine was indeed very different from the previous aero engines of his company.

Just as he was looking around the engine, Lao Lu said, "Mr. Zhang, this is a 50-ton electric dielectric ion aerospace engine, which is also what people often call a plasma aerospace engine. Although,

When the engine is working, it also needs a medium to complete, but the most common media required by this engine are air and water.

In other words, this engine is a multifunctional engine that can work both within the atmosphere and outside the atmosphere. It can use air and water together as a medium to work within the atmosphere. Once it reaches high-rise space with thin air or

After entering space, you can simply use water as the medium to work.

Of course, as an electric aerospace engine, the main energy it consumes is electricity? However, compared with the electric aerospace engine we developed before, this engine consumes much less electricity, but it still requires 100,000 yuan per hour.

Kilowatts of electricity.”

After listening to Lao Lu's words, Zhang Yi was still a little disappointed. Although it consumes much less power than the previous electric aviation engine, only about 1/100 of the original, the demand for power is still considerable.

It is so huge that it is simply not what current battery reserves can provide.

Perhaps seeing Zhang Yi's disappointed expression, Lao Qi on the side said: "Mr. Zhang, I know what you are thinking. Regarding the power problem, we have already thought of corresponding countermeasures, that is, to develop a

A corresponding micro nuclear reactor is not a big difficulty for us, because before Lao Qi came to this universe, he was engaged in this kind of research work in his original universe, just these few days

Over time, he has achieved some results, and has now begun the design of relevant drawings."

After hearing what Lao Lu said, Zhang Yi was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "Lao Qi, what Lao Lu said is true. Can you really develop a 10,000-kilowatt-hour micro nuclear reactor?"

Zhang Yi still knows a little about micro nuclear reactors. After all, not long ago, some newspapers in the Great China Empire reported that the beautiful country’s space agency and their Ministry of Energy cooperated to develop a micro nuclear reactor and are now working on it.

test.

According to reports, their micro nuclear reactor is only the size of the plastic trash can we usually put in it, with a diameter of no more than fifty centimeters. Of course, the output power of their micro nuclear reactor is not large, with the largest being only 10 kilowatt hours.

, so he has never thought about using micro nuclear reactors.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, it is not very difficult for me to develop a 100,000-kilowatt micro nuclear power plant. However, due to the problems of human technology in your world, it may still be a bit large in size. According to my

It is estimated that the minimum diameter can only be reduced to about two meters, and the weight may exceed 20 tons.

However, the details will not be known until it is developed. At the same time, as long as we successfully develop the first miniature nuclear power plant, we can make gradual improvements in the future to reduce the diameter and weight."

Having said this, Mr. Qi paused for a moment, and then spoke again; "But Mr. Zhang, because manufacturing micro nuclear power plants requires nuclear fuel, but our Colorful Stone Group currently does not have any nuclear fuel at all, so even if I design a micro nuclear reactor, our Colorful Stone

The group doesn't have any raw materials that I can use for experiments, so I hope Mr. Zhang can think of a way."

After listening to Mr. Qi's words, Zhang Yi suddenly felt a headache. You must know that this is nuclear raw material, not other ordinary materials. How can it be so easy to get? However, for the future aerospace industry of Colorful Stone Group, he will only

Neng nodded to Mr. Qin and said, "In terms of nuclear fuel, I will try my best to find a way. However, even if we conduct experiments in this area, we cannot conduct experiments at the headquarters of Colorful Stone Group. The dangers of nuclear fuel

Sex, I think you must know.

Let's do this! According to the agreement between me and the Great Elder of the Dahua Empire, I will go to the Daxi Province of the Dahua Empire in a few days to take over a large abandoned air force base as the aerospace manufacturing and launch center of our Colorful Stone Group.

You go with me! We will conduct experiments in this area over there."
Chapter completed!
