Armor Frenzy

The message was sent to Nanzhou. This time, the wait time was a bit long. It took almost an hour before I received a reply from Nanzhou.

Gao Kai on the screen looked serious: "Leishan, your ship is moving away from the sun. With your ship's direction and speed, the warning line is set at 40%, which is too reluctant. To ensure safety, it is better to increase it by 10%. ."

Ye Han's whole person is not well, but after thinking about it carefully, he has to admit that Gao Kai's worries are indeed justified.

Under normal circumstances, the fuel warning line of a space warship is between 15% and 30%, and the specific amount must be considered the speed, direction, load and output power of the propeller.

He set the fuel warning line at 40%, leaving a very high margin. To put it simply, the fuel is enough for Leishan to fly from the asteroid belt to Beiyuezhou and back.

However, as Gao Kai said, Leishan is flying towards Jupiter's orbit, and it must slow down before returning. After such a toss, 40% of the fuel is enough.

Ye Han thought for a while before replying: "Nanzhou, the call has been received. In view of the current situation of our ship, there is no need to raise the cordon immediately. If the speed of our ship continues to increase, I will raise the cordon at an appropriate time. To fifty percent..."

He planned a lot of return voyage plans in his mind, but no matter which plan, it depends on the specific situation at the time, rather than just thinking about it in the bridge, and can come up with a return voyage plan that suits all situations.

However, Ye Han has already agreed with Gao Kai's suggestion in his heart, and it is not acceptable to disagree. It is really the key to fuel. This thing is not only related to the power of Leishan, but also involves another important issue: voyage.

If it is a surface ship, according to the speed and fuel consumption of the ship, the voyage of the ship can be obtained through a very simple calculation.

However, the space battleship is in space without resistance. If the situation facing the Thunder Mountain is relatively calm for a period of time in the future, then the battleship only needs a little fuel to adjust its direction, and it can fly very far by inertia alone.

On the other hand, if the situation is turbulent and a lot of acceleration, deceleration, and direction changes must be carried out, then Leishan will consume a lot of fuel every day, and the fuel reserves will not last long.

Ye Han couldn't help pondering in his heart, if only the output power of the thrusters could be higher!

He came up with the idea because nuclear-powered engines are so inefficient.

The so-called nuclear-powered engine should actually be called a nuclear-powered thruster. This thing has too high requirements for materials, especially the reaction chamber that withstands the explosion, which especially tests the strength of the material.

A micro-nuclear explosion is also a nuclear explosion. The reaction chamber not only has to withstand the temperature of the micro-nuclear explosion, but also must absorb the impact of the micro-nuclear explosion and feed it back to the warship, which will eventually become the force for the warship to advance.

Thunder Mountain's new engine is not a big deal to put it bluntly, but a new alloy was accidentally obtained when a laboratory was studying the material of the super engine.

In addition to working on materials, Ye Han has also heard of some more partial methods.

If a cooling system is installed outside the reaction chamber, the reaction chamber is cooled by liquid nitrogen.

The idea is very good, and it has the ability to manipulate the book, but the reaction chamber is not a perfect thing. One side is liquid nitrogen close to minus 200 degrees, and the other side is the continuous miniature nuclear explosion. The temperature difference between the inside and outside of the chamber No less than two or three thousand degrees, no matter what material the cavity is, it can't withstand such severe torture.

It is also a good idea to replace liquid nitrogen with other coolants, but the cooling effect is not very good, and it is not useful at all.

This is just an idea.

Ye Han also heard that someone got inspiration from the jet engine of a fighter jet and wanted to install an afterburner system on the nuclear engine.

To put it simply, when the fuel ball is launched, a "combustion accelerant" is added to the reaction chamber. This thing becomes plasma after absorbing the energy of the micro nuclear explosion, and the plasma is sprayed out along the reaction chamber, and finally achieves a boosting acceleration God make a book.

It is said that this method can increase the efficiency of nuclear engines several times or even a dozen times. In theory, it can even match the propulsion efficiency of chemical rockets!

To be honest, Ye Han thinks this idea is really good, the principle and technology are considered mature, but plasma is also called plasma, this thing not only runs outside the reaction chamber, but also likes to drill into the reaction chamber, and it must be controlled by a magnetic field. The direction of injection is to prevent the plasma from pouring back into the reaction chamber.

The first is the afterburner system, then the magnetic beam equipment, and the "fuel tank" that stores the combustion accelerant has to be added. The structure of the engine is several times complicated in an instant, and the cost of repair and maintenance has skyrocketed.

Because of these miscellaneous reasons, all countries know that this is a good way and have conducted experiments in this area, but so far, no country has built a practical afterburner system.

After thinking about it, none of the methods currently mastered by human beings can use nuclear engines. It is estimated that human warships will be inseparable from nuclear engines for a long time in the future.

Unless, the research of super engine makes a breakthrough!

But according to Ye Han's understanding, the research of super engine has always been difficult, and until today, the detailed principle has not been figured out, only that this thing, like human propulsion, also uses the principle of recoil.

However, exactly how the God of Work works, and what fuel is used is still an unsolved mystery.

If Leishan could install a few miniature super-engines... tsk tsk, there would be no problem running all over the solar system in one breath, and the aliens couldn't chase after exhaustion, so why not worry about fuel?

While thinking about it ~www.readwn.com~ received another communication from Gao Kai.

Gao Kai on the screen looked helpless: "Ye Han, I just received an order from Beiyuezhou, and the head asked me to fully cooperate with your actions. Not only Nanzhou, but also bases 3 and 4 received orders, and a few others. There are six warships on the way, but our two ships and the remaining ones are all sent by the base group... This time it is really a big game, not only going deep behind the enemy, but also recruiting the international fleet..."

Ye Han was also a little confused when he received this news. Since the Second Fleet returned to Earth, the International Fleet has stopped moving. Why is he willing to send the battleship out at this time?

He vaguely felt that it was not that simple.

In fact, it is not that complicated at all. The ownership of the asteroid belt is related to the safety of the entire human race. A large number of aliens have already landed on the earth. If the alien fleet is sent to the outer space of the earth, will mankind not be completely finished?

Don't look at the fact that Beidu and Washington have been fighting openly and secretly, but there is a limit to the fight. At this juncture, the overall interests of mankind are important, and no matter how much filth is behind it, it is impossible to demolish each other at this time.
