My Galaxy Technology
Chapter 322: Unmanned aircraft design in progress
If we want to reach the threshold of the stars and the sea, the advancement of aerospace technology is the top priority and the core.
Feiyang's current research in this field only involves some of the most basic materials, and it is still zero in terms of power, high-performance components, and overall manufacturing.
According to Zhou Feiyu’s vision, the first step is definitely to develop unmanned aircraft, and this is also the future development direction.
As a result, this involves many aspects, the first of which are the three cores of materials, engines, and energy.
Materials aside, this is Feiyang’s old profession.
The tungsten alloy cutting tools mentioned by the artificial intelligence Xinghe are Feiyang's latest research progress in the field of materials, and they are also the outstanding research results of the artificial intelligence Xinghe.
However, compared to the direct application of other materials, tungsten alloy cutting tools are used as processing tools.
A large number of high-performance components of unmanned aircraft, such as the body, wings, engine blades, etc., all need to be processed by machining centers. This cannot be produced by forging, nor can it be printed by 3D printing.
To process these high-performance components, advanced processing equipment must be used, one is the main machining center, and the other is various composite cutting tools for processing tools.
Among them, tungsten alloy cutting tools are the main force among processing tools.
In most processing fields, tungsten alloy cutting tools are the main force, but the mid-to-high-end cutting tools basically come from abroad, such as Ximen Company and Siling Group.
It is not that there are no companies in China that make this kind of tungsten alloy cutting tools, but the products of these companies can only be said to be barely usable.
The tungsten alloy cutting tools of Ximen or Siling are made of the same material, but the use effect after manufacturing is better than that of domestic ones. Whether it is sharpness, strength, toughness, or lifespan, it is much better than that of most domestic ones. Many manufacturers would rather pay higher prices for imported tungsten alloy cutting tools produced by Ximen and Siling.
Feiyang naturally couldn't buy tungsten alloy tools from Ximen or Siling. Even if he wanted to buy them, neither Simen nor Siling would sell them, so he could only make them himself.
For this kind of tool, there is no other way but to try.
In the absence of artificial intelligence, many secret departments in China use exhaustive methods, trying one by one, thousands of times, to manufacture a small number of high-performance tools.
With the artificial intelligence Galaxy in hand, after several attempts, supercomputing simulations were immediately launched and then verified. After repeated attempts, the artificial intelligence Galaxy quickly carried out various tasks through Kobelco No. 1 The composite of materials finally resulted in a brand new tungsten alloy material unique to Feiyang.
This is a new tungsten alloy material whose performance has reached a metamorphosis level.
Ordinary tungsten alloy materials, also called tungsten steel materials, have excellent properties of high strength, high hardness, high wear resistance, high elastic modulus, and high corrosion resistance. They are known as the teeth of modern industry and play a fundamental role in the development of the manufacturing industry. The driving effect of sex is basically unchanged at high temperatures of more than 500 degrees, and it has extremely strong hardness even at high temperatures of 1,000 degrees.
However, the proportion has been adjusted, and the Feiyang brand tungsten alloy material with Kobelco No. 1 as the main body is far superior to ordinary tungsten alloy materials in terms of strength, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and other properties.
It has also shown strong ability to adapt to high temperatures. At a high temperature of more than 2,000 degrees, the performance of Feiyang tungsten alloy materials is no different from that under ordinary conditions.
The artificial intelligence Galaxy conducted extreme tests. It was not until the high temperature exceeded more than 5,000 degrees that the performance of this new tungsten alloy material began to change significantly.
This level of performance is not just a five-fold improvement in data, but an improvement of five orders of magnitude!
You know, every hundred degrees higher the temperature is, it's a hurdle.
Not to mention that it increased by more than 4,000 degrees at once!
After reading the information provided by Xinghe, Zhou Feiyu knew that it was no problem that the tool problem mentioned by the other party had been solved. Now, all that's left is really the engine and energy.
In terms of engines, piston engines and jet engines are used on unmanned aircraft.
This only refers to large unmanned aircraft, not the small civilian unmanned aircraft developed by Xinjiang University of Science and Technology. The small civilian drones are electric.
Of course, large unmanned aircraft also use electric ones, but they are extremely rare and their performance is not outstanding, so they have little application.
In terms of energy, it is relatively weak.
If it is electric, the energy source is naturally the battery, but limited by the current discharge level of the battery, this kind of unmanned aircraft cannot fly far or high at all.
As for the piston or jet type, they use various special oils, such as gasoline, heavy oil, etc.
Relatively speaking, oil-burning piston engines or jet engines have much higher power and endurance than electric ones. Therefore, in order to pursue performance, almost 100% of unmanned aircraft are manufactured with these two engines, all burning oil.
For example, Eagle Sauce’s Global Eagle, MQ Death series, China’s Rainbow series, etc.
Zhou Feiyu has investigated and knows the details.
Even though they are both oil-burning, Yingjiang's Global Hawk and MQ Reaper are better in performance than Huaxia's. This is of course related to the first-mover advantage, but it can still be seen that Yingjiang is indeed unique in the world.
You know, whether Global Hawk or MQ Death, they were all started in the 1990s. MQ Death was later deployed around the world and participated in actual combat in the early 2000s.
On the other hand, China's Rainbow series, well, they are all products produced a few years later. I don’t know if I don’t compare, and one comparison will leave people speechless.
Those who are low-spirited will most likely surrender and kneel down mentally.
Only those who are high-spirited and unwilling to admit defeat are still gritting their teeth and continuing to catch up.
After thinking for a long time, Zhou Feiyu finally decided to design according to the electric plan.
Oil-burning engines, whether piston or jet, have extremely high power consumption, noise, etc., so no matter how they are designed and covered, the heat energy they release during flight is huge. The risk of exposure is much higher than that of electric exposure.
As for the power lost due to this, as well as the discharge problems encountered in high-altitude areas, these are things that need to be considered when designing the plan later.
...the higher the altitude, the lower the oxygen content, the harder it is to discharge the lithium-air battery, and the power will be greatly reduced, so this issue must be taken into consideration...
Now that we have decided to go electric, the development of lithium-air batteries has become inevitable.
Only the high energy density of lithium-air batteries can support the sustained navigation of unmanned aircraft in high altitudes. Otherwise, you have to come down and replenish the battery every hour or two, so what’s the use?
Like Yingjiang's Global Hawk or MQ Death, which one can fly in the sky for ten or twenty hours?
You can refer to the plan of the Hairen series of robots and bring some of your own oxygen to the sky.
Zhou Feiyu had his own preliminary plan, and while explaining it, he added: You don't have to think so much about micro drones. Large drones serve as platforms, and micro drones can take off directly from above, with only one or two Hours of battery life are enough to complete various tasks...
