C2079 Power System Test
Qin Guan's proposal gave them a new idea. If they could perfectly solve the problem of burning the deck and greatly increase the flight speed, what were the shortcomings of their vertical landing planes?2
Thanks to the Han people, they had researched the vertical landing planes. It was actually so thorough, even better than theirs! Shujikov looked at President Koo and the others beside him and simply gave them a thumbs up in admiration. He was really amazing.
His attainments in Han people were very deep.
Now, everyone was heading towards the workshop. At this time, Dongdukov had already started to give a simple introduction.
"Now, our teams have worked together to create a new power system. We are carrying out the final experiment. If there are no problems with the experiment... We will install the aircraft and conduct the flight test. " Dongdukov's voice was quickly drowned out by the roaring of the engine.
If there were no changes, a plane like the Jacques 141 had already been tested for flight, but the improvement of the entire power system caused the test flight to be delayed.
Now, when he walked into the test car workshop, Qin Guan's eyes suddenly lit up. This thing was very similar to the F-35 power chain!
Behind it was the main engine, the R79 engine developed by Bear Country. The weight of this engine was not very high, but its power was very strong. After all, this was the power of 150 thousand cows!
Later on, when Bear Country collapsed, they discovered that there were no suitable engines for the new plane. At that time, there were people who had doubts about why they didn't use this R79 engine!
Its thrust was close to the Al41, and the Al41 wasn't successfully developed at all. They could only create an engine like the 117S of the AL31 improved using the AL41 technology, so why didn't they use the R79 instead?
Of course, there were many reasons. Although this type of engine had strong thrust, at the same time, it also had a high self-weight. It was said that the weight ratio was less than 7. It was not even comparable to a Third-generation Engine, let alone the power of a 4th generation machine. What the fourth generation needed was an engine with a weight of 10.
Another aspect was the competition for the engine design department. In the end, only Uranian won. After all, the other side had the exports of the Su-27 as their foundation. The Al31 engine was in short supply. The other engine design departments... They could only eat dirt, and then they were merged into a union. According to their plan, of course, they would have to take care of their own project first. As for the other useless projects, they would throw them away whenever they needed to.
As for the fact that Han Country had developed a Turbo Fan -15 using the R79 technology, that meant they were like the clouds in the sky. No matter what new projects Han Country researched, there would always be someone who wanted to find a counterfeit for them. It was just like how the J-10 was an imitation of the Great Wei People, the Lion Fighter. As long as one understood the process of the military's research and development, they would know that it was impossible.
Now, the next engine with the Vector Nozzle was the R79 engine. In front of it was a vertical fan that was connected through a axis. At this time, this axis was spinning at high speed, roaring as it transmitted huge power.
"It has been operating continuously for more than 50 hours. This proves that there is no problem with the processing of this transmission axis." President Koo said from the side, "We used the equipment in North Heavy Truck Factory and processed it with the materials provided by Bear Country. It perfectly met the requirements of the design. "
Back then, everyone was worried about the processing of this transmission axis. After all, this thing had to transmit tens of thousands of horsepower, and it had to be fine and precise. The people in Bear Country could not do it themselves.
However, with such high-intensity materials in Bear Country and the high precision processing ability of Han Country, it was even made.
"Under the test of the great thrust, the last part can provide 14.5 tons of thrust. The front part can provide around 7.5 tons of thrust." Shujikov followed up with an introduction, "This is completely enough for our Jacques 141 test. As long as the current power system is verified, we can install our plane. "
They also had to catch up with the progress. When the new aircraft carrier was built, they would fly up a few times. What if the navy caught up to them?
After all, the navy already has a batch of flying Jacques Flight 38s. Changing to flying Jacques Flight 141s will definitely be familiar.
According to the original plan, the engine at the back would provide 15 tons of thrust. The first two Lift Engine would provide 8 tons of thrust. And now, this kind of engine would directly drive the Lift Fan at the front. This caused the main engine's power loss to be reduced to 14. 5 tons, plus the previous 7.5 tons of Lift Fan. This seemed to lose a ton of thrust compared to the original design, but at the same time... After using this design, the earth also reduced its weight. Changing two Lift Engine to one Lift Fan, the weight was reduced by half a ton. In addition, it could save a lot of fuel, so it was definitely bearable.
It turned out that he had used two RD-41 Lift Engine, and each of them had a thrust of eight tons. He had used two of them, and at the same time, the weight of this thing was only 290 kg. This was a dry mass. In this way, the weight of this kind of engine would reach a heaven defying ratio of 14. This was simply advanced technology, even the F22 engine wasn't this high.
Of course, this was in exchange for sacrificing one's lifespan. This type of engine only had a lifespan of a few dozen hours. Of course, the Lift Engine could only be used when it started to descend. Every time it was used, it would only take a few minutes. Therefore, the lifespan of these dozens of hours... It was enough for him to fly for a few years.
He didn't save much on weight. The main thing he saved was the weight of the structure, the weight of fuel, and so on. Moreover, he could perfectly solve the problem of the burning deck, which was the key.
"Separation test." This kind of continuous operation did not have much meaning. It would change once every three minutes, separate or combine. This was also another important part of the test.
"Hualala!" At this moment, they heard the movement of the tooth box inside. Then, someone shouted, "Not good, separation failed!"
The previous dozens of experiments had all been carried out smoothly, but now, when Qin Guan came to inspect, the power chain here had malfunctioned.
Apart from the transmission axis, this tooth box and clutch were also important points. If they could not separate or combine normally, it would definitely be a tragedy!
The roar of the engine disappeared. The R79 engine seemed to have been running for a long time and was exhausted. Finally, it stopped, and some people couldn't wait to take the tools. They began to disassemble the hot tooth box.
President Koo and the others also looked embarrassed. It was not easy for President Qin to come here once. He came to see the results. Why was there a problem now?
