Mecha Journey

Chapter 93: Think outside the box

Yan Shenfu's loud laughter made everyone in the audience feel a little embarrassed, because Yan Shenfu's laughter was obviously a heartfelt laugh because it suited his own mind, rather than a belly laugh at the other person's wild imagination.

Some people began to suppress the disdain on their faces because of Yan Shenfu's smile, and seriously thought about whether what the new student proposed was really correct.

Looking at Yan Shenfu's expression at this moment, Yang Mu was also a little confused, but Yang Mu was convinced that the things he said existed objectively, and would also be a mainstream design direction in the future.

At least the technology I just mentioned has been applied to my "Annihilation" for a long time. In the area below the neck of the Annihilation Back Armor, there is the place where the battery is protected. As for the secondary battery solution, it is a very old solution. , equivalent to the auxiliary fuel tank on a flying fighter plane, and it should have already begun to be used in elite mechas in various countries, right?

Not only that, Yang Mu also knew that in the design drawings of the anti-bug mechas that flooded his mind, the battery installation location was also on the back, but the batteries of those mechas were a little different...

And it seems that "Annihilation" has no power after the last battle. How should I add it?

Too far away...

Yang Mu shook his head and looked back into the field, only to see that Yan Shenfu had stopped laughing and was standing in front of the operating table, scanning the students in the field.

After a while, Yan Shenfu spoke in a deep voice.

"I know that everyone scorns such a plan and thinks that this method has great hidden dangers."

"Everyone has also put forward some constructive suggestions, and some of the ideas are indeed things that countries have been studying now."

"but……"

Yan Shenfu's voice sounded, and then he suddenly paused.

However, all the students in the field became more energetic at this moment. Everyone quickly spread out their pens and papers, and sat upright, ready to listen to Yan Shenfu's next words.

One of the world's top engineers, a special engineer who has developed a number of advanced mechas with three times the performance of ordinary mechas currently in service, said "but" at this moment.

So what I'm going to say next is definitely extremely exciting.

If all they could bring out here were brains and pen and paper, these guys would have wanted to videotape and record them.

Especially the candidates from various countries did not even dare to blink, for fear of missing any detail of Yan Shenfu.

Yang Mu saw the changes in the crowd and was a little confused, but he also sat up straight.

Yan Shenfu had a serious expression on his face. He watched the students put away their notebooks and said.

"We are all on the wrong path."

As soon as Yan Shenfu said these words, the audience was in an uproar.

Such words, for everyone present, are tantamount to subverting their previous worldview, but such words come from the mouth of such a highly respected person.

“We always think about the problem as a designer, or we always think about the problem from an overall perspective.”

"So this kind of thinking solidifies our imagination, so that even if we want to make breakthroughs, we are still tightly attached to the foundation of our predecessors."

“This makes it seem like I’m designing outside the original framework, but I don’t realize that the original framework is actually constraining me.”

“Not only that, many times, we only study a certain technology with the attitude of a scientific researcher, but we do not fully consider whether this kind of thing can really help a lot when it is used in actual combat. , or this kind of thing can really bring immediate help to mecha pilots."

"I'm not your military teacher, and I won't say much about it. What I want to point out is that this solid idea of ​​comprehensively enhancing the performance of a single mecha ultimately led us to choose this wrong research and development path. "

"And everyone has forgotten that we are not the ones driving these mechas to the battlefield. The people who go to the battlefield are the soldiers, those soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles."

Yan Shenfu said in a calm tone, and everyone suddenly felt that they had touched something different.

"We always think about how to do something like this in the laboratory. We have to do it to the extreme, make it flawless, consider every situation very clearly, and then come up with the final solution for every problem. Concrete solutions.”

"The method and steps of conducting experiments are correct, but on a real battlefield, soldiers will not consider such things. What they need is very simple, that is, this mecha can protect itself, launch attacks, and Help them win the war. Other trivial things are redundant and may even become a burden."

Yan Shenfu shook his head and said this, then turned around and walked to the side of the newly cut part, unfolded the newly cut section, pointed at it and said.

"Take the parts of this War Dragon mecha as an example."

"Everyone should also know that this mecha is an intraplanetary combat mecha independently developed by PAJR Xinsong Starfield. Ten years ago, this mecha was once a very popular model and was even called a model of comprehensive mechas. "

"But in just three years, this mecha was eliminated, and the public explanation given at the time was that related technical problems were difficult to optimize."

"But what exactly is so difficult to optimize? This is it."

Yan Shenfu stretched out his hand and pulled out the battery inside. The battery, which had been cut into half, still had the size of eight bricks stacked together. It was still difficult for Yan Shenfu to hold it with both hands.

"At that time, in order to pursue an overall improvement in overall performance, the mecha hoped to make an overall breakthrough, so they chose to design a larger battery, because this could drive more weapons, and the mecha's battery life was also greatly improved. Great protection.”

"The idea is good, and the performance of the mecha has obviously improved. But the problem is that they have made the problem too detailed and only look at it from their own professional perspective."

"The War Dragon Mecha passed the military acceptance test perfectly, and every test data was extremely excellent."

"But when it was sent to the battlefield, it was just a special forces exercise, and a problem they didn't expect arose."

"Because mechas often experience engine overload operation in different environments, especially under the dual effects of continuous engine overload and harsh surrounding environments."

"The battery eventually exploded."

All the students in the field showed surprised expressions, and were very surprised by this result that they had never known.

"The explosion of the battery directly paralyzed the mecha, even endangering the safety of the soldiers. Even if the battery did not explode, problems occurred in the mecha's emergency maneuvers and sharp turns during several overload operations."

"The huge battery will jam the spine of the mecha's waist when it moves violently, and at the same time, because it takes up more space in the waist and abdomen, the balance between many core components will be disrupted."

"Not only that, but an even more terrifying situation has emerged."

"When the battery pops out, it will get stuck due to its huge size and cannot pop out. The mecha will not be able to replace its energy source."

"Think about it, students. The mecha's battery cannot be ejected. Even if you have a new battery in your hand, can you put it in?"

The venue fell into silence, and many people lowered their heads and thought silently and took notes.

"After that, the R\u0026D team made many adjustments to the battery."

"Including the method mentioned by the male classmate just now." Yan Shenfu said calmly, and then pointed at the boy wearing glasses just now.

"For the heat dissipation problem, they chose to solve it through physical cooling and chemical cooling, adding air inlets and adding coolant. However, this method will change the design and load capacity of the mecha. The drawings need to be comprehensively designed to see if they can be applied. It’s still a problem.”

"There is also the problem of stuck. They chose to shrink the battery, but in that case, wouldn't it defeat the original intention?"

"And won't this approach reduce all the mecha's performance?"

"This excellent mecha has been reduced to a second-rate mecha, and it has quickly withdrawn from all major military markets."

When Yan Shenfu said this, he picked up the water next to him and took a sip. The students in the field looked at Yan Shenfu with all their attention, and even controlled their breathing.

"After our in-depth study of this case, we found that its problems actually appeared at the very beginning. At the beginning of the design, everyone did not think about jumping out of the entire framework, but only thought about optimizing the framework."

"But do you think that with the development of mechas over the past hundreds of years, how else can you optimize this framework?"

"In short, no matter how improved a steam engine installed in a car is, can it be comparable to an internal combustion engine?"

"This is a breakthrough in thinking. Since the battery has this problem, why do we have to choose a built-in battery instead of an external one?!"

Yan Shenfu's words were very powerful, and everyone present was shocked.

Yes, the truth is so simple, but why didn't I think about it just now?

Speaking of this, Yan Shenfu changed the topic.

"Although we have talked about this level of design thinking, which is also the main point of our class, I think we should still set up a basic benchmark in your hearts."

"What I want you to keep in mind is that the mecha's battery, as Yang Mu just said, is the top priority and the real heart of the mecha. Whether the battery can operate normally and continue to operate well, Everything about this mecha is decided!”

"Power is the source of everything!"

Yan Shenfu's powerful words suddenly enlightened everyone in the audience, and the expressions on everyone's faces were very exciting.

"Teacher Yan..." At this time, a hand was raised. Yang Mu looked over and saw that it was the blond man with big waves just now.

Yan Shenfu signaled the other party to speak, and Da Lang stood up.

"Teacher Yan, since you agree with the idea of ​​batteries being mounted on the back of mechas, does that mean that this technology has already been put into use?"

"In other words, Teacher Yan, you have already developed this technology and it has matured?"

The crisp sound of big waves sounded, and other students in the field were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes suddenly burst into light.

This is simply hitting the nail on the head, if PAJR has really completed the development of this technology, or has begun to apply it, and if Yan Shenfu is willing to explain it!

Yang Mu turned his head and looked at the hopeful expressions of those in the field, especially the excited expressions on the faces of the candidates, and shook his head.

This kind of technology has significantly changed the battery design that has been used for many years. Just the balance of circuits and materials must have cost countless manpower and material resources. This kind of technology must be confidential now. Yan Shenfu would never be able to teach it like this.

After all, only elite mechas like his own would be able to deploy them twenty years later.

Yan Shenfu took a deep look at the candidate, a smile appeared on his face, and he seemed to be saying proudly.

"I generously admitted that through our efforts, we have indeed conquered this technology, but..."

"You want to learn?"

There were expressions of surprise on the faces of the students in the field.

"no way."

Although Yan Shenfu said this, Yang Mu saw Yan Shenfu's eyes staring at him.

There seemed to be something else in that look.
