From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 153 Verifying with a supercomputer!
Finally, Chen Bao couldn't help but wanted to ask Lin Xiao.

So he said again: "Lin Xiao, what are you doing?"

Hearing the sound from such a close distance, Lin Xiao finally came back to his senses, turned his head to take a look, and said in surprise: "Academician Chen, you are here."

Chen Bao didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly: "Let's not talk about this, tell me first, what kind of material are you simulating now? It shouldn't be the material of the siding, right?"

Hearing Chen Bao's question, Lin Xiao couldn't help admiring the academician's knowledge. He could tell at a glance that the material he made was not made of wall panels. Although Huang Haoran could see that his material was a little different a few days ago, he didn't see that. It is no longer a siding material.

He nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, it's not the material of the siding, but the material of the turbine blades."

"Aren't you going to get the material for the siding? How to get the material?"

"I just tried it." Lin Xiao responded.

Before Chen Bao could speak, Cao Zhong beside him couldn't help but uttered: "What? You said this is the material of the fan blade? Turbo fan blade?"

Looking at this, Lin Xiao didn't know him, but he might be an academician if he could be with Academician Chen.

He nodded and said: "Yes, it is the material used on the turbine blades, and the directional solidification technology is used to enhance its one-way mechanical properties. In addition, its mechanical strength is also very strong. In addition, titanium-aluminum alloy has strong anti-oxidation and anti-fatigue properties, as long as this material is prepared, it will definitely bring us surprises."

Hearing Lin Xiaona's confident words, Cao Zhong and Chen Bao looked at each other in blank dismay.

Although the calculation result was surprising, after they came back to their senses at this time, they still didn't think that Lin Xiao could easily produce a material that could be used as a turbo blade.

People don't know how much it will cost to research this kind of material, even hundreds of millions or billions of dollars may not be able to produce it. You can make one casually now, who would believe it!
Finally, Chen Bao said: "Although the calculation result of the software is very good, it is also very likely to be a calculation error. Lin Xiao, you should also know that even a small error in the materials used on the turbine blades will bring Huge difference."

A little bit of error is sometimes fatal to the precision machinery of an aero-engine.

Hearing what Chen Bao said, Lin Xiao didn't say anything, but opened various other software and showed his calculation results to the two of them.

This time, both Chen Bao and Cao Zhong fell silent.

Lin Xiao actually performed calculations on so many softwares, and the calculation results of most of the software show that this material has extremely strong performance, and according to the difference in the algorithm between the software, the calculation results have some errors, so among them There are even a few softwares that believe that the strength of this new material exceeds that of the blade material currently used on the turbofan 15.

This made neither of them know how to refute.

Computational materials science has developed to the point where it is still limited to theoretical results rather than experimental results, but in any case, it is undoubted that it has certain "guidance".

Just in case, just in case, if Lin Xiao's experiment is done, will theirs really succeed?

After all, it's not like it hasn't been successful before.

The breaths of the two academicians couldn't help but rush at this moment.

A material that can be used as a turbo blade!
Anyway, it's worth a try, right?

But now, there is another embarrassing thing.

Chen Bao said: "We have no money, and I am not an expert in directional solidification technology, and the design of directional solidification technology is a bit too expensive."

Lin Xiao was taken aback, no money?
This is indeed a big problem.

He couldn't help showing helplessness on his face, it wasn't that a penny stumped the hero, this time it was millions, tens of millions of money stumped the hero.

However, at this time, Cao Zhong said: "I can ask the group to invest more money for you, or set up a separate research group to produce this material."

Hearing Cao Zhong's words, Lin Xiao was taken aback for a second, and looked at him in surprise. Can this person command the Hangfa Group?

Seeing Lin Xiao looking at him in surprise, Cao Zhong smiled and said, "I forgot to introduce to Lin Xiao. I am Cao Zhong from Aviation Development Group, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, who studies aero-engines."

Chen Bao patted Cao Zhong with a smile, and said to Lin Xiao: "Academician Cao and I are old friends, and we are both on our own. He is also the deputy general manager of Aviation Development Group. It is no problem to ask for funds."

Lin Xiao suddenly became pleasantly surprised, "Then thank you Academician Cao!"

"Ham, what's there to thank for this, we are all for our national defense!"

Cao Zhong said with a smile, suddenly he remembered something again, and said, "By the way, Lin Xiao, have you told others about this?"

"Not really." Lin Xiao shook his head.

"That's good." Cao Zhong said to Lin Xiao with a solemn face, "You also know that the situation our country faces internationally is not particularly peaceful, so in order to protect our military secrets, and also to protect yourself, If this material can really achieve this expected result after it is finally prepared, then it will definitely become our secret technology, and there cannot be any disclosure, including your contribution in it, can you understand this?"

Hearing Cao Zhong's serious words, Lin Xiao nodded heavily and said, "I know, I won't say it."

In fact, he had already been prepared for this kind of thing, so he didn't answer when Huang Haoran asked him before. Similarly, he didn't perform simulation calculations on his personal computer, after all, he couldn't guarantee that his computer Security is not safe.

Seeing Lin Xiao nodding, Cao Zhong showed a smile on his face, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, as long as you can succeed, this credit will definitely be recorded in your file. If the file is decrypted in the future, everyone will not Will forget your contribution to this."

"Well, what I can do for the country is what I should do."

Lin Xiao responded, and at the same time, he also had an inexplicable feeling in his heart. In this way, could he be regarded as joining the ranks of secret guardians?
Just like the shock and touch he felt in his heart after hearing the story of the father of the Huaguo nuclear submarine.

There are also those Long March veterans who kept their names incognito after they were discharged from the army, and their identities were not known until after their death because their relics were dug out.

The current strength of Huaguo has a lot to do with these invisible guardians, and Lin Xiao also feels a sense of honor and honor to be able to join this rank and become comrades with those predecessors.

And his answer also made the two academicians looking at him have some different emotions in their eyes, with relief and emotion.

Finally, Cao Zhong said: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now, Lin Xiao, you can write your results into a report later, and then I will take these reports to a meeting and try my best to obtain resources for the research and development of this material."

"Okay, I'll take it out as soon as possible." Lin Xiao nodded, and then said, "Oh yes, actually, I think that if I use the supercomputer to do the calculation again, it may bring more powerful proof to the theoretical result."

"Extraordinary?"

The two academicians were taken aback.

"If you use supercomputers, you need to design related programs. Can you do this?" Chen Bao said, "Of course, if it doesn't work, I will ask someone to design it for you."

Lin Xiao said, "I can design it myself."

In the past few months of study, due to the needs of computational materials science, he has also made considerable progress in program design, and there is no problem in designing this program.

This is why many people who originally studied computational materials science say that if they do not achieve any results in materials science, they will directly switch to become a code farmer.

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Chen Bao nodded and said, "Okay, that's it. I'll help you apply for supercomputing later. Our funds can still support the application for supercomputing."

"Thank you."

"Hey, I have already said that there is nothing to be thankful for, let's work hard together." Chen Bao smiled and waved his hands.

"Ok!"

Lin Xiao nodded with a smile on his face.

It is not only for the two academicians to spare no effort to provide help, but also for the achievement of their own goals.

……

Next, according to what Cao Zhong said, the report was produced first.

Of course, since the supercomputer has not been used for the final verification, Lin Xiao can only write down the various previous calculation results for the time being.

As for the applied supercomputer, it is Sunway TaihuLight.

After all, Sunway TaihuLight was developed by the country, and its security and confidentiality are guaranteed. However, since there are many organizations applying for Sunway TaihuLight, they need to wait in line for about two to three weeks.

Although national institutions like them can generally jump in the queue, the Supercomputing Center will naturally not provide them with privileges if they have not declared the importance of this project.

Of course, Lin Xiao was not in a hurry, because he applied for supercomputing for two purposes. The first purpose was to provide stronger evidence for his calculation conclusions, as Cao Zhong and Chen Bao said.Using the more powerful parallel computing power of supercomputers to expand the calculation scale of this new material model, the results obtained are generally more similar than the ordinary computers they used before.

However, this is only the first purpose, and the second purpose is based on Lin Xiao's sensitivity to numbers, combined with his knowledge and previous calculation results, he has a mathematical model for the material given by the system. , aroused some doubts.

There is a certain gap between the various properties of the titanium alloy material given by the truth point and the theoretical properties calculated on the computer.

The actual properties of the titanium-aluminum alloy material given by the system are stronger than the calculation results, such as mechanical strength and some thermodynamic properties, which are much stronger.

After all, he spent so many truth points to make it.

This also means that this new material is fully capable of bearing a higher temperature before the vortex, thereby increasing the thrust of the engine.

However, this is not the most important thing. There is such a large gap between the calculated results and the actual properties, which also means that something has not been discovered.

Lin Xiao had a hunch that it was probably because there was a certain mechanism or physical properties that had not been discovered.

And he wants to use his mathematical ability to deduce this mechanism, and then use supercomputing to verify it!

And this is also a major role of computing materials, that is to use mathematics to explain some unexplainable things in some experiments!

　Ask for a monthly pass.

　　There should be another chapter later.
