C2775 Increase the Aip System
AIP Systems, generally speaking, have three technical routes, namely airtight recycled diesel engines, Stirling engines, and fuel batteries.
Since the Conventional Submarine was equipped with a diesel engine, then directly modifying the diesel engine was the first plan that he thought of. The diesel engine needed to absorb the oxygen in the air, so he might as well simulate it.
The exhaust gas discharged by the diesel engine was absorbed by the carbon dioxide absorber. The gas that was not absorbed by the exhaust gas was then added with an appropriate amount of oxygen, forming an artificial atmosphere to supply the engine.
This method required a large oxygen tank to supply oxygen to the engine. When the oxygen tank was used up, it would reach its maximum underwater time.
How to simulate the air and make the temperature of the artificial air normal was a difficult problem.
The other type, the Stirling engine was a special external heating continuous combustion engine. It was equivalent to adding a compartment to accommodate this kind of machine, using the combustion high-temperature gas on the outside and heating the internal circulation of the heat pipe to do the work. This kind of engine doesn't have too big of a problem in principle. The flaw was that it could not produce too much power, so it could only maintain the submarine's low speed. As for the fuel batteries, that was space technology. They relied on the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen to directly generate electricity. The only by-product was water, which was the most high-end technology. Moreover, not only did it need liquid oxygen, it also needed liquid hydrogen.
It had to be known that liquid hydrogen was much harder to store than liquid oxygen. Moreover, it was also difficult to produce liquid hydrogen. It would consume a lot of energy, which was definitely much more difficult than producing liquid oxygen.
Liquid oxygen, as long as the air was liquefied, it would be separated out. Liquid hydrogen, that was something that could only be obtained through electrolytic water.
Therefore, in the future, there were people constantly bragging that electric vehicles were a mistake. Hydrogen power was the final technological route, and that was purely without considering the actual situation. Not to mention the danger of the liquid hydrogen tanks on the cars, just the price of the liquid hydrogen was... It was at least 20 times that of gasoline, and the energy consumption was even greater.
The so-called hydrogen power was not something new at all. The fuel battery plan in the Conventional Submarine's AI system was actually the basic principle of this kind of hydrogen powered car. It was just that they did not need to use liquid oxygen to directly use the oxygen in the air. As a result, its exchange membrane was easily blocked.
It was definitely not worth it in a hydrogen powered vehicle. However, it did not matter if it was on a submarine. Military equipment would definitely not be the first requirement.
However, the problem was that Ruby Design Bureau did not have such an ability. They were in charge of designing. They needed a large number of subordinate factories to provide matching equipment. It could be said that there wasn't a single factory in Bear Country that could produce such a system. In other words, they did not have the ability to join the AI system.
The first question that President Qin raised made it difficult for them.
"President Qin, if you think that the submarine is dangerous when it is charging up, we have a solution. We can add anti-air missiles to this type of submarine." Spesky said.
Qin Guan immediately shook his head. "Add anti-air missiles to the submarine? Do you know the tragedy of Hans Country's navy submarines using anti-aircraft cannons to deal with airplanes in the World War?"
The one with the most experience in using submarines was definitely the Hans Country. In the World War, the Hans Country built a large number of submarines and became the pack of wolves in the Daxi Ocean.
However, the Alliance Army's airplanes became their biggest enemy. Later on, they had fantasized and installed anti-air cannons on the cannons, planning to fight head on. After discovering the planes, they did not dive down and fired at the enemy. What happened in the end? A large number of the planes that were called over directly sank to the bottom of the sea.
A submarine will never be able to fight against an airplane. Using anti-aircraft missiles to deal with an airplane is definitely an act of stupidity. You actually came up with such a plan to deal with it, how much of a scam would that be?
Spesky did not speak. In an instant, the entire conference room fell into a state of silence.
"We believe that if there is a disagreement, there will definitely be a solution as well." Boris also knew a lot of people here. Seeing this situation, he tried to mediate the situation. "Maybe we can come up with a plan that will satisfy both parties?"
Both sides are satisfied? That's right! A new idea suddenly appeared in Spesky's mind. "President Qin, you strongly request this kind of AI system, but as far as we know... Almost no one in the world has a mature and reliable system like this. And... Your technology is advanced, then, do you have this technology?"
Qin Guan nodded. "We are developing the Stirling Motors ourselves."
The Han Country must have this kind of AI system. After all, the Han Country had a long coastline. Nuclear submarines were too expensive and could not be equipped in large quantities. Many of the sea areas were relatively shallow. The nuclear submarine could not enter either. Only the Conventional Submarine could enter. Hence... Han Country had been researching the Stirling System all these years, even though the power wasn't very strong. The technical difficulty was the lowest, and it was the easiest to achieve.
"Then, can we add an extra section to load this type of engine that you developed and become an AI submarine?" Spesky said.
Qin Guan frowned and looked very serious. "Our engine is top secret. It cannot be leaked. If I give this engine to you, even if I give you the technical information. It'll leak too."
Qin Guan continued to create problems. Then, what should be the solution?
"Why don't we let the designers of Han Country join us? Design together? " Boris continued to make peace with them. "How about this, let them handle the design of the AIP cabin. As long as their design is integrated into the entire submarine, wouldn't it be fine?"
After saying that, he kept winking at Spesky. Spesky could only nod. "Okay, we are at the back of the submarine, in the engine compartment. Just add a cabin section. I will leave everything to you to design. This way, you don't have to worry about the leak. We just need to coordinate well. However, this will lead to an increase in the drainage, and the maximum speed underwater might be reduced. " In order to get the order, Spesky did his best.
Qin Guan nodded. "Alright, we can consider sending our designer over. We have to design it together, and we have to supervise the construction. I'm sorry, this is not because I am worried about you, but because there are some countries... For example, White Elephant Country is against us. We have to be on guard."
Spesky nodded. As long as Han Country could place an order, everything could be discussed. Only by selling the products could they make money.
Qin Guan looked at Boris with satisfaction. He had done a good job this time. He had successfully understood his requirements. His own people had joined in. They had participated in the design and manufacture together, so they could still fool people. Furthermore, he could also participate in the design of this submarine.0
"I think this submarine has the potential to be improved. For example, its propulsion system can be used with more advanced propellers." Qin Guan continued to make requests.
