"The lighthouse on Guadalcanal is smoking." Brian held a document and said to Swift: "Our reconnaissance satellite took photos from a high altitude and confirmed that the white smoke was coming from the inside of the lighthouse.
"
"There's smoke in the lighthouse?" Swift took the photo with some curiosity: "What's going on?"
"have no idea."
They have always been paying attention to the southern seas. When Chigua Island was going to build a lighthouse, they were a little wary, but the thing was built very quickly and looked like a lighthouse, so they had no reason to stop it.
Now, a few days after the lighthouse was put into use, they discovered smoke coming from the lighthouse. What was going on?
Suddenly, Swift thought of something, with a sarcastic smile on his face: "Could it be that when they were piling their lighthouse, they hit the active volcano under the sea?"
"I don't know, theoretically speaking, it is indeed possible." Brian said, "Then what should we do?"
"This is a good opportunity. Let's inquire. If the other party needs it, we can send geological experts to help." Swift said: "After all, once a volcano erupts there, it will affect the shipping route. Let's do this
We do this for the sake of the safety of international shipping routes.”
Brian nodded.
A few hours later, he got a reply.
"The Oriental people replied to us that the lighthouse there was smoking because someone got married on the island recently. They set off a lot of fireworks and firecrackers, and part of the gas entered the lighthouse. Please don't worry, and they also thanked us for our concern.
"
"Fireworks? Are you kidding? Today is not April Fools' Day!" Swift said: "Since they are unwilling to let us help, then we must continue to pay attention. Once we discover a volcanic eruption, we will tell the world the news.
People refuse our help and then suffer a big loss!"
At this time, Swift still had a gloating mentality. He didn't know what was there, and he would never have imagined that it was a nuclear power plant. Otherwise, he would definitely exaggerate the threat here to the international community and make everyone laugh.
Those who rise up to resist, wait until a few years later, it will be a fait accompli, and even if others want to say anything, it will be useless.
Just when Swift was paying attention to the lighthouse on the island, the lively wedding ceremony had passed, the wedding ceremony had passed, and it was time for Qin Tao to leave.
The next day, early morning.
"Zhengyang, you don't have to follow me. You can stay on the island temporarily. Our group will give you a month's wedding leave. You can also take He Qian on your honeymoon." Seeing Xu Zhengyang getting ready to be a secretary and bodyguard again.
, Qin Tao said.
On the second day of the wedding, Qin Tao left with the groom and left the bride on the island. This was a bit cruel.
"Mr. Qin, Xiaoqian and I have already discussed it. After she has arranged this place, she will go to me." After Xu Zhengyang finished speaking, he glanced at his wife beside him: "Our current separation is short-lived. We will meet again next time."
, we will never be separated again.”
"Really? That's great." Qin Tao said: "He Qian is engaged in technology, and coming to our group is completely..."
He Qian quickly shook her head: "Mr. Qin, you don't need to help me arrange work. I want to leave Chigua Island, not the army. I plan to continue to be a soldier."
Qin Tao's eyes became serious: "You still want to be a soldier? Soldiers have always been together and separated. That's what my wife and I were like back then, so I don't want you to be like that too."
"It's okay to be a soldier." Zhao Ling said from the side: "Find Xiaoqian a job as a teacher at the National Defense University in the capital, so that she can stabilize. Although we run around, the time we spend in the capital is
Not short either.”
If you are in the army, you have to enforce the discipline of the army, and you cannot meet your lover every day. However, if you go to other departments, it is different. You can go to and from get off work at certain times. Now, Zhao Ling is looking for a university teaching job. I can get to get off work on time every day.
"Me? I can't." He Qian shook her head: "What qualifications and abilities do I have to be a teacher at the National Defense University?"
"Assistants and instructors are all fine." Zhao Ling said, "In short, we will arrange your work. When the order comes, you can just carry out the order."
This power is still there, and it is for Xu Zhengyang's happiness. Now, just look at Xu Zhengyang's expression and you will know how grateful he is to Zhao Ling. They will definitely become more like a family in the future.
Several people boarded the ground-effect aircraft and waved to people on the shore. When the ground-effect aircraft left, He Qian still stood there, staring in the direction in which the ground-effect aircraft left.
"Brother Zhengyang, you are really serious. Look, Xiaoqian is standing there, it has become a looking stone." Zhao Ling said to Xu Zhengyang: "You shouldn't come back with us and stay there with us.
Xiaoqian’s honeymoon.”
"Being with Xiaoqian before was like spending a honeymoon." Xu Zhengyang said: "Now we are still busy with business. Mr. Qin, the 40-megawatt gas turbine jointly developed by Motor Siqi Company is about to be ignited. What's next for you?
Do you want to go over and have a look?"
"So fast?" Qin Tao was a little surprised.
"yes."
After all, it is not a new research and development, it is just an improvement on a mature aero engine. For Tianjiao Aviation, as long as the workers from Ermao are moved over, there will be no problem in production. Therefore, this gas turbine is making rapid progress.
.
"Yes, we have to go and take a look." Qin Tao said, "But this is in China, and you don't need to follow us."
"After we have finished reading, we will definitely need to sell this gas turbine as soon as possible. The aircraft carrier order of Gou Dahu is about to start now. It is just time to modify the design and use our gas turbine. At that time, you may need to go
A trip to the Middle East. So, I have to follow."
Qin Tao glanced at Xu Zhengyang with satisfaction, well, although you have just become the groom's official, you have not lost your skills as a secretary and have arranged everything properly. In this way, I really need to go there.
Travel to the Middle East.
At the beginning, because there was no suitable gas turbine, the power to burn the boiler was used to fool the big customers. Obviously, now that it is available, of course the latest power must be provided to the big customers. It just so happens that they can be used for experiments. Anyway, the whole ship is integrated with electric propulsion.
We are all planning to install it, and the gas turbine is of course a piece of cake.
After accumulating experience on Goudahu's aircraft carrier, our own amphibious assault ships and the like can use mature gas turbines.
"Brother Zhengyang, you are always like this, when will you think about yourself?" Zhao Ling said from the side.
"The group has been so good to me, how could I not think about the group all the time? When Mr. Qin married you, didn't he get together and leave more, traveling around? We are all for the strength of the motherland." Xu Zhengyang said.
Yes, it’s all for the strength of the motherland!
Tianjiao Airlines, a large group of people gathered in front of an engine, very excited.
Among them, there were many old faces, and Lotarev, as the deputy chief designer, was extremely excited.
"Our UGT has finally been built. It will become the world's most powerful naval gas turbine and will rewrite the history of using boilers on large aircraft carriers!" Lotarev said: "Whether it is a light aircraft carrier of 20,000 to 30,000 tons
, or medium-sized aircraft carriers of 50,000 to 60,000 tons, can use this kind of gas turbine!"
"It can also be transformed into a gas turbine for land use, which is of great use in natural gas fields and other places, and can be sold to many countries!" Muravsenko said.
Zamotaeva stood in the crowd with a smile on her face: "Yes, a new era of power was created by us. Our Tianjiao Aviation is the strongest aero-engine R&D unit in the world!"
Compared with Lao Maozi's excitement, the Chinese staff were much calmer. The chief designer Wen Xueyou had a smile on his face and looked at the large gas turbine as if he were looking at his own child.
Just as they were enthusiastically surrounding the gas turbine, a voice came from outside.
"Everyone is here? It's very lively. I heard that the gas turbine has been built? This is a big event worth celebrating!"
"Mr. Qin?" Zamotaeva was the first to turn around, saw Qin Tao and others, and immediately called out, then walked up quickly: "Mr. Qin, our Tianjiao Airlines has another qualified gas turbine!
It also created a world record, and Tianjiao Airlines is the most advanced aviation R&D and production enterprise in this era!"
In order to convert the D-18t into a gas turbine, they also specially established the Tianjiao Aviation Design Institute, which not only engaged in production, but also started research and development. There are a large number of veterans in this design institute who work closely with Oriental people to convert this kind of aircraft into a gas turbine.
The gas turbine was built in the shortest possible time.
"Yes, our Tianjiao Airlines is the most powerful in the world." Zhao Ling said from the side. She used to be the top leader of Tianjiao Airlines. Now, she is also proud of Tianjiao Airlines' achievements.
"Mr. Qin, we have worked hard!" Wen Xueyou came over and reported to Qin Tao: "We are full of confidence in this gas turbine."
Qin Tao nodded: "Congratulations. Now, can you start testing the car?"
"Yes, you can start at any time. Now, please stand in a safe position. We are about to start the gas turbine!"
An aircraft engine can easily rotate at tens of thousands of rpm. Once flying parts are very scary, they can easily cut the thing in front of them in half. Although they have confidence in the gas turbine, the outside of the gas turbine is also covered with a protective cover, so
You also have to pay attention to safety.
In a safe position, Wen Xueyou continued to introduce to Qin Tao: "The core engine of our gas turbine comes from the D-18t. The combustion chamber and power turbine are developed by ourselves. We refer to a lot of experience in the GT-000 gas turbine, and the shock-absorbing base
It also uses this principle, so it looks much larger than lm00."
The shock absorption of the LM00 gas turbine is designed from the inside. The casing is very small and the entire device is very compact. Under the same power output, Lao Maozi's gas turbine is a circle larger. Lao Maozi did not work on the gas turbine and directly worked on the outside. Anyway, the ship
You don’t have to worry about excessive weight when using a gas turbine.
The shell is very rough and has the usual characteristics of Lao Maozi. As for the structure inside, of course you can't see it.
"Can all the parts here be produced by Tianjiao Airlines ourselves?" Qin Tao asked.
"The current self-production rate of parts is 85%, and some parts, such as the fulcrum bearings of the three-rotor engine, etc., are purchased through Motor Siqi Company." Wen Xueyou replied: "We are also continuing.
If we work hard to improve our production level, our self-sufficiency rate will continue to increase until it reaches 100%."
When the two of them were talking, Zamotaeva frowned. What does Mr. Qin mean? He has always been pursuing 100%. Does he have any concerns? Our Motorsich Company has it, which is equivalent to Tianjiao Airlines.
Yeah, what's the difference?
"The preparations are ready and the fire can be lit at any time!" Lotarev said from the side.
"Attention everyone, prepare to light the fire!"
The sound of the motor sounded, and the rotating shaft of the gas turbine was driven up, gradually whistling. As the whistling sound became sharper, the rotational speed had reached the required speed.
"ignition!"
Fuel is sprayed out from the combustion chamber, burning with blazing flames. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas pushes up the turbine blades at the back, drives the compressor at the front, and drives the power turbine at the back to output surging power.
The motor stops rotating, and the gas turbine relies on its own power to rotate steadily.
"In low-speed operation, the power output is ten megawatts, everything is normal!"
Just low-speed operation is enough to reach the full power output of some ordinary gas turbines. The power output of this UGT is so powerful.
"Increase power to twenty megawatts!"
The whistling sound became louder. Although the casing has the function of reducing noise, the actual effect is not obvious. Now, listening to this whistling sound, the big guy's eyes are shining brightly.
"Increase to thirty megawatts!"
If it is a newly developed gas turbine, it must go through a long period of testing before the power can be further increased. However, it is originally a mature and qualified aeroengine. With such modifications, it can still output maximum power at any time.
"Increase to rated maximum output power!"
Everyone held their breath, and no one wore earmuffs. They were listening carefully. The huge howling coming from inside was so pleasant. If it was accompanied by noise, it meant that something was going on inside.
The power display keeps increasing, thirty-two, thirty-five, thirty-eight, until it reaches forty!
Rated power reached!
Not to mention the lifespan, the power has already reached the standard!
"Rated power reached!"
There was a burst of warm applause. Lotarev opened his arms and hugged Wen Xueyou.
"Thank you Dongfang for giving us a new project and allowing us to successfully complete the research and development of this project!"
Zamotaeva was also very excited and subconsciously wanted to hug Qin Tao, but when she saw Zhao Ling on the side, she changed the hug into a handshake: "Mr. Qin, our cooperation project has been successful again.
Got one!"
"That's right, congratulations. We are going to hold a celebration banquet tonight! All personnel involved in research and development will receive an additional two months' salary as a bonus!"
Mingzhou Group is a hard-working enterprise. Whatever it says it will do, it will be done well. The same goes for the gas turbine they jointly developed with Motor Sich Company.
The 40-megawatt gas turbine successfully ignited once and reached the rated power once, which all reflects their R&D strength!
The news quickly spread throughout the world.
Rolls-Royce Company.
"Damn it, why did the Easterners get the lead? It only took them one year to complete the conversion of aircraft engines into ship-based gas turbines. This is unscientific!" Conrad said angrily: "How did they do it?
Did it?"
"Yeah, I really don't know how the Oriental people did it. Now, we have just completed the design of the gas generator and the condenser is still under development. The Oriental people have actually started the ignition and test run." MacLee looked bleak.
: "I suspect this is fake news!"
When they couldn't do that, they suspected that the East was fake.
"In any case, we have fallen behind in this field. The company gave us the final order. Within a month, our gas turbines also need to be ignited!"
"A month? That's impossible!" MacLee shook his head: "Those people are not engineers. They can make decisions with a snap of their heads. Do they know how much effort we have to expend? This is against science. We still need at least a year.
time."
"They don't care about scientific matters. They care about other aspects. The continuous innovation of Easterners has changed the world's view of them. They think that the most advanced technology is in the East. This is unfriendly to us.
We must let the whole world know that the most advanced technology is in the West!"
In the field of chips, Dongfang has developed to be the strongest in the world. Intel was beaten to the last breath. AMD directly chose to cooperate with SMIC and asked the other party to do OEM work. It was defeated in this high-tech field.
The West has completely lost face. Now, they are lagging behind in aviation engines. How can this not make them angry?
They have to catch up, they have to prove their ability as soon as possible.
However, to engage in scientific research, one must be down-to-earth. Even if such an administrative order is issued, will it improve the technical level?
"If the gas turbine cannot ignite smoothly within a month, a large number of people will be laid off." Conrad said: "So, for your jobs, work hard!"
Fired?
Everyone's face turned dark. This move was really cruel. No matter how overtime they worked, they had to ignite the gas turbine they had on hand within a month!
With the development of the Eastern aviation industry, their market will inevitably be squeezed. Fortunately, the Easterners have not yet developed large passenger aircraft and need to purchase them from the West. But in the future, the Easterners will definitely develop their own passenger aircraft. By that time, Rolls-Royce will
The company's sales will be greatly reduced, and the cold winter of their aviation industry will come.
Now, in the field of gas turbines, it has begun.
MacLee knew that his own research and development of a 40-megawatt gas turbine was of great significance. It was not only to gain popularity, but also to compete for the export market. Even if the Mingzhou Group built an aircraft carrier for a big dog, they could still sell the gas turbine, provided they
The gas turbine has been successfully developed.
Now, the Eastern people's first attempt was successful, so the next step must be to use it on the aircraft carriers of big players. They are lagging behind again.
In the East, the celebration banquet continues. Lao Maozi always likes to drink, but now in this situation, they like to drink even more.
"Come, let's raise a toast together to the successful ignition of our gas turbine!"
Lotarev picked up the glass and drank it in one gulp.
Unconsciously, he drank too much.
"Mr. Qin, I, I have to toast you. Without you, we will have nothing. Now, we have wages, housing, bread and wine, and our career!"
Motor Sich Company is only engaged in production. For this design, the Progressive Design Bureau was invited. Lotarev was the original deputy chief designer of the D-18t engine. It is precisely because of their existence that
, ugt-gas turbine was developed so quickly.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this time, Lotarev was also very grateful to Qin Tao. Without this project, they would have no future.
"It's our honor to have you come to the East. Come, let me toast you." Qin Tao raised his wine glass.
The two sides drank again, and Lotarev said: "Mr. Qin, now this project has achieved initial success. Will we continue to cooperate after this project ends?"
"Of course." Qin Tao understood what the other party was worried about. If the project ended and the cooperation was terminated, these people would have to sit on the bench again. These are the best talents, how could Qin Tao let them go.
"Are there any new projects?" Lotarev opened his eyes wide. At this moment, he was no longer drunk.
"When this gas turbine is successfully finalized, the next step is to improve it." Qin Tao said: "You can take a look at the world's most famous LM00 gas turbine. It has been improved since its birth until now, and the power output is stronger than it was originally.
It has doubled, and the lifespan has been greatly improved. Our gas turbines also need to be improved in this direction, improve the efficiency of the gas turbine, increase the power output of the gas turbine, and continuously improve the performance of this gas turbine to always occupy the highest peak in this field.
"
Lotarev nodded: "Yes, it needs to be improved. The technology of the original D-18t is still used now. Many of them have fallen behind. The aviation industry in the East is developing very fast. We can definitely use your latest technology to improve it."
!”
"Right now, we don't have our own large passenger planes in China, but there will definitely be in the future. Therefore, our passenger planes also need advanced aero engines. When that time comes, we can use the technology developed in gas turbines to develop a new generation
of passenger aircraft engines.”
Aviation engines! Return to the old business!
Lotarev was full of enthusiasm: "Okay, Mr. Qin, I remember what you said. In the future, we will continue to work hard to develop more advanced engines!"
