Chapter 106 Core Technology of Hope Railcar

Falcon Rail Depot, High Energy Fluids Laboratory.

In a blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.

"Beep~beep~beep~"

The communication was connected, and it was Inspector Jimo.

Lin Yuan's eyes glowed with purple light, and he was using an extremely short-wavelength extreme violet laser to calibrate the shape of a part with a three-dimensional complex surface.

On his right arm is a high-precision nano cutting machine.

If something is wrong, fix it right away.

He focused on two things: "Inspector, is there any progress?"

"No. There are hundreds of thousands of registered server units in the entire city. There are countless unregistered underground servers. It is really difficult to check."

Of course, he didn't come to complain, and then said: "But I have confirmed that, among the 1369 network security experts in spd, at least 1244 have been brainwashed. It's really a hell."

This news just confirmed Lin Yuan's guess, he was not surprised at all: "Tell me some good news, if there is any."

"The good news is that the idiot director of SPD is as stupid as ever. He only drinks tea and reads the news all day long, but his mind is still sober. And those detectives, [-]% of them should be sober too."

"Well, it's really good, much better than I imagined. It seems that I overestimated the abilities of those abyssal soul dwellers."

Lin Yuan always likes to estimate the opponent's ability to the highest level, because it is less likely to cause accidents.

"This is scary enough! Without this group of network security experts, the entire spd is shrouded in information fog."

After muttering something, Ji Mo asked again: "So, do you have any good news?"

"Of course I have. A few days ago, Colonel Li told me that in case of turmoil in Yueyue Port, the general of the Yunmeng Squadron of the United Fleet will be awake, and the captains of 15 warships will also keep their minds clear. Although the captains of the warships have been brainwashed, they have also been secretly locked, and their command authority can be lifted at any time."

"Oh, this news is really reassuring. What about the Xuanwu and giant whale teams?"

"Then I don't know. The giant whale is fine, but the fleet of the Xuanwu Squadron is very resistant to outsiders entering. So."

"It seems that the Xuanwu Fleet has a big problem in all likelihood!"

Ji Mo sighed, he was only responsible for the security of the city's internal structure, and he did not have any authority to investigate the fleets sent by the continents, so he was blind to the internal situation of the fleets.

After pondering for a few seconds, he said: "I'll think of a way to see if I can get the specific situation of the Xuanwu team. If I don't figure it out, I feel very panicked."

Lin Yuan reminded: "Be careful, don't put yourself in it. Those group of abyssal spirits kill people without blinking an eye."

"Don't worry, I know what's in my heart. Let's talk about this first, and I'll hang up first."

After hanging up the communication, the precision parts in Lin Yuan's hands were also finished.

He took the electromagnetic trap, and carefully moved the parts to the side of the half-formed new engine through the protective layer of inert gas.

On the other side, Lao Zuo checked the new part again.

He inspected very meticulously, and after looking back and forth a dozen times, a smile appeared on his face: "The quality is as perfect as ever. Of course, it would be even better if there is no communication when building parts."

He is an old-fashioned robot. When working, he pays attention to wholeheartedly. He doesn't like the way young people work while talking on the phone.

In particular, Lin Yuan can't go wrong if he does two things at once. It's too boring to let him not even give him the opportunity to educate.

Lin Yuan smiled awkwardly: "Mr., I will definitely change it next time."

"Oh, next time for sure~next time~"

Old Zuo grumbled, and with all his energy, he installed the parts into the engine.

This is the last core component. After installation, packaging, testing, filling with argon propellant, and powering on, a series of actions are completed in one go. .
Lao Zuo checked it for the last time, and after confirming that it was correct, he said, "It's ready for a trial run."

Lin Yuan nodded, and turned on the performance tester: "My side is also ready."

Lao Zuo pressed the start switch.

On the fixed platform, the volume was only half the size of a schoolbag, and the plasma jet engine shaped like an irregular stone shook slightly, and a conical blue-purple flame appeared in the rear nozzle.

Blue-purple is the unique glow after argon ionization.The reason why argon is used as a propellant is because argon is an inert gas and will not chemically react with engine materials at high temperatures.

There was a whistling sound of 'huhuhu' in the air.

Lin Yuan's brain computer is connected to the test equipment, and constantly shares the data with Lao Zuo.

'Under standard pressure, the maximum thrust of the engine is 10KN, the consumption of argon is 20 grams per second, and an additional 200kg of air is introduced.The power response time is 0.08 seconds.'

Lao Zuo listened carefully: "The performance of the air condition is very good, especially the dynamic response, far exceeding the current average value of 0.2 to 0.5 seconds, which is perfect. Let's try the vacuum condition."

Rail cars not only have to fly in the atmosphere, but also fly in a vacuum environment.

Soon, the environment is evacuated.

Lin Yuan continued to report.

"The compressor has stopped, the thrust has dropped to 1KN, and the propellant consumption has increased by 6.8 times. The power response time has been shortened to 0.02 seconds."

In a vacuum environment, there is no air as an auxiliary, and all the thrust comes from the propellant, so the thrust decreases sharply, but the propellant consumption increases greatly.

This is determined by the laws of physics. It cannot be imagined and can only be improved as much as possible.

With this data, Lao Zuo is already very satisfied.

"Next, we will start the durability test, simulate the worst working conditions, and start running at full power."

The durability test is very important, it is related to the stability of the engine, and it is the greatest guarantee for the safety of the rail car.

If the engine fails in the middle of the flight, it will kill people.And all it takes is one major failure like this, and Hope Railcar's reputation is over.

Therefore, this test cannot be sloppy, it must be meticulous.

After the test started, Lao Zuo asked, "Lin Yuan, how long do you think you can carry it?"

Lin Yuan looked at the test data, calculated silently in his heart, and reported a number: "At least 400 hours."

Old Zuo frowned: "Boss Lin is very confident in his craft. In my opinion, 200 hours is definitely no problem. After 200 hours, it depends on luck."

Lin Yuan chuckled: "We'll see."

While waiting, he was not idle, and went on to engage in another key new technology.

This technology was not conceived by Lin Yuan out of thin air, but was found from the pile of garbage papers in Nanli Starfield.

The technology is unpopular, impractical, and completely whimsical.

The full name is 'high-plastic ultra-high-speed 3D printing'.

What does that mean?

High plasticity is a material that can be printed repeatedly, and the theoretical limit is [-] times.

Ultra-high speed means that the printing time is greatly shortened. For low-precision materials, it can be completed within 5 seconds at the fastest.

Why do you say whimsical?
Because the technology is still in the laboratory stage, there are a lot of technical bottlenecks that are difficult to solve, and no practical application prospects can be seen at present.

However, others can't use it, but Lin Yuan is like a treasure.

Whether his combat weapons can exert their maximum power depends entirely on this technology.

Therefore, during the period of waiting for the results of the durability test, Lin Yuan has been working on this high-speed printing technology.

Unexpectedly, this time, I waited for 636 hours.

In other words, this new engine, under the worst working conditions, ran at full power for a full 26.5 days before declaring the end of its life.

Looking at the test results, Lao Zuo pursed his lips, trying to pick a thorn, but found that he couldn't pick it out, so he could only say angrily: "Lin Yuan, this thing you made is really tough!"

As far as he knows, the highest durability test record is 489 hours.

Lin Yuan was not surprised, he smiled and said: "It seems that the engine development has been successful."

Lao Zuo nodded: "Although the thrust-to-weight ratio is a bit low, fortunately, the propellant efficiency is very good, which somewhat makes up for this shortcoming. The biggest problem now is that this engine cannot be made bigger."

As long as it is large, the advantages of ultra-fast dynamic response will gradually become smaller, and the gap cannot be widened.

Lin Yuan smiled slightly: "The old gentleman already has a solution in his heart, but he doesn't say it out, is he trying to test the younger generation?"

Old Zuo chuckled: "You must have thought of it too. Let's write down a pair and see if we think of one."

So, the two wrote the answer in the document, and then opened a pair, and saw a word written in each document.

"Cellular Parallel Array."

After finishing speaking, you look at me and I look at you, all laughing.

If one engine does not work, then a group of engines can be used in series, which not only solves the thrust problem, but also solves the response problem.

The only drawback is that the thrust-to-weight ratio has to be sacrificed a little, but in terms of the exponentially improved response time, this compromise is worth it.

"Sir, will you give the new engine a name?"

Lao Zuo quickly declined: "This is not good, this new engine is mainly designed by you, how can I name it? You come."

Lin Yuan did not refuse: "It focuses on swiftness, and its power comes quickly. Then, the low-end one is called the civet cat, and the high-end one is called the tiger king. The last battle version is called the raptor."

All versions use the standard engine, the biggest difference is the number of stacked arrays.

"Well, you've got it all figured out. Then call it that."

So far, it took a month and a half to finish the engine, and it can be used for the rail car first.

"Old Zuo, let's program the industrial robot and start trial production?"

The old Zuo waved his hand: "Leave these trivial matters to me. I have seventy or eighty new recruits over there. All of them are very smart, and they are enough for me to control. You concentrate on your high-speed printing, this is our trump card. .”

"Row."

"Oh, that's right. If you are tired and want to change your mind, you can design some new models. The cars you design are really good-looking."

"understood."

Lin Yuan made a gesture of leaving everything to me, then turned around and continued to print at high speed.

The laboratory has a lot of equipment, even if some equipment is temporarily missing, you can buy it with money. In addition, Lin Yuan has a full set of technical information in his mind, so the technical bottleneck of high-speed printing has been 'overcome' one after another.

Another half month later, seeing that the high-speed printing technology was about to be put into practical use, Lin Yuan received another communication from Li Xuan.

"Lin Yuan, the new engine you made is a bit powerful."

In this regard, Lin Yuan was not surprised at all, because the mall has already posted the pre-sale pictures of the finished rail car, including the performance parameters of the engine.

For these parameters, laymen watch the excitement, and insiders can naturally see the way.

But although Li Xuan is the captain, she has no overlap with the field of railcars, so she can only be regarded as a person who is neither inside nor outside.

She made a special call to say this, there must be something wrong.

Lin Yuan's thoughts turned quickly, and he guessed: "People from Qingmu Cheetah Company are interested in this engine?"

Li Xuan looked surprised: "You're not really spying on me, are you?"

Lin Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth: "One day I will live enough, maybe I will really monitor a battleship captain. But this time, I am purely guessing."

Li Xuan sighed: "Then, you guessed it right. The person in charge of the Cheetah Rail Depot wants to chat with you, so let me connect."

Lin Yuan asked back, "What's your attitude?"

Li Xuan said: "I looked at the engine parameters, it's very advanced, it can even be said to be an epoch-making product. Such a product will bring a lot of pressure outside the commercial field. I'm afraid we can't handle it alone. So."

"I understand. I will share technology with Cheetah, but I can't share it for nothing, right?"

"Of course not, you can take the opportunity to lower the price of other accessories. Well, anyway, you can figure it out, just don't go too far."

"Row."

The matter was over, Lin Yuan asked again: "How is your family's situation? How many people are infected?"

Li Xuan sighed lightly: "Not very optimistic. About one-third of the people in the family were recruited, and some were deeply brainwashed, but fortunately my grandfather was well protected and he was still sober. Don’t dare to make random measurements, for fear of scaring the snake.”

Grandpa Li Xuan is the current head of the Li family. If he is fine, the overall situation will not be chaotic.

Lin Yuan was relieved: "Then you can give me the communication number of the person in charge of Cheetah, and I will contact him."
