Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 81 Chaos Alloy
(Because the content of Chapter 79 is incomplete, in order to express my apology, I will add another chapter.)
In fact, after Mr. Cao’s introduction, Zhong Cheng was already thinking about how to realize Mr. Cao’s idea. In theory, there is no problem, but there are still some problems in making it.

It is possible to control several power battery packs in one car, but to control hundreds of power battery packs to work together, energy consumption is a problem, the electronic control system is a problem, the superimposed output of power is also a problem, and safety is also a big problem. question.

Moreover, installing such a high-power motor on a wheel and loading such a large driving force is a great test of the strength of the wheel hub and the axle itself. If the accelerator is too large, it will be broken directly.

(PS: The hub motor is a motor embedded in the wheel, the stator is fixed on the tire, and the rotor is fixed on the axle. After the power is turned on, the stator and the rotor move relative to each other to generate a rotating magnetic field, which drives the rotor to drive the wheel to rotate.)
To solve these problems, he needs to spend a lot of time, and what he lacks most now is time.

The research and development work of Zhurong Electric Push is racing against time. As soon as he stops, he will stop the three of Yang Xi, and the research and development work of Zhu Rong Electric Push will also stop.

But he really wants to help Beizhong Group transform large-scale construction vehicles into electric drives. This will be of great help to China's infrastructure projects. The power of construction machinery will increase by several times or ten times, which means a lot of manpower, material resources and time. The savings, and some large-scale engineering projects that could not have been completed can also be considered.

For example, digging a gap in the Himalayas to release the South Asian monsoon into the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, or introducing water from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau into the Taklamakan Desert, or large-scale excavation of lithium ore soil in Qinghai. This kind of lithium resource content is relatively low, requiring large-scale construction machinery Large-scale excavation often requires thousands of tons of earthwork to obtain one ton of lithium resources.

Of course, digging through the Himalayas is too sci-fi, but the latter two are indeed possible.

Calculating economic accounts at the national level is much more important than his military drone project.

(PS: Needless to say the importance of the lithium industry, there is no electrification without lithium mines. my country is the largest consumer of lithium mines, importing 300 million tons per year, and producing less than 100 million tons.)
Zhong Cheng considered for a moment, and decided to obey the overall situation of the country. He nodded and said:

"There is no technical problem, but it will take a little time, maybe half a year!"

His words made the three of Mr. Cao heave a sigh of relief, with happy expressions on their faces. Half a year is not a problem for them. Beizhong Group itself still has a series of related work to prepare. Designing a super-large hub motor is a big deal for them Also a challenge.

But Mr. Wan and Mr. Zhang’s complexions are not good-looking. The importance of Zhong Cheng to Red Star Company is self-evident. Spending half a year of his time means that Zhong Cheng’s current work will stop. It is difficult for them to ask Mr. Deng and Mr. Director Qian confessed.

In particular, director Qian repeatedly asked the group company to withdraw Zhong Cheng to the research and development institute, saying that he now has a very important scientific research project.

Mr. Wan asked: "Does it have to be half a year? Can the company find someone to help you?"

Zhong Cheng thought for a while and replied helplessly: "In fact, the time is mainly spent on strengthening the wheels and axles. The manufacturing materials must be able to withstand huge torsional impacts. I have little research on high-strength alloy materials, so I have to Take your time."

After Zhong Cheng finished speaking, President Guo, who was in charge of technology of Beizhong Group, asked General Cheng for instructions in a low voice.

Then he said: "Zhong Gong, you don't have to think about the material problem. Our company has developed a new type of high-temperature titanium-cobalt-chromium alloy, which is super strong, light in weight, corrosion-resistant, and resistant to low and high temperatures. Far beyond the materials currently used in aerospace."

"In order to keep it secret, we gave it the code name 'Chaos Alloy'. The biggest advantage of Chaos Alloy is that it is low in cost. , composite materials are much cheaper and can be used on a large scale.”

"The chaotic alloy we developed was originally intended to be used in the manufacture of the main drive shaft of large-scale engineering vehicles. Now it is only used on the hub and axle without any problems. I will send you the specific performance parameters later."

Zhong Cheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, isn't this chaotic alloy just the engine case material that he and Yang Xi dreamed of for Zhu Rong Electric?

Especially the requirements of both low temperature resistance and high temperature resistance make them very headache. The current working temperature of titanium alloy can reach 500 ℃, which is 300 ℃ higher than that of aluminum alloy, but it is still far from meeting their requirements.

The temperature of the ionization chamber of the ion engine is about 3000°C. To ensure the superconductivity of the calcium-intercalated graphene material, the temperature inside the body must be kept at minus 80°C, which is the double weather of ice and water, and must also ensure sufficient strength.

Such materials are too difficult to find. If you can't find good materials, you can only lower the environmental requirements, which increases the difficulty of their design countless times.

Unexpectedly, this cooperation with Beizhong Group has yielded unexpected surprises. Could it be that good intentions are rewarded?

If he rejected this task, it would be impossible for Beizhong Group to mention the matter of Chaos Alloy.

Zhong Cheng said happily: "If there are chaotic alloys, the design of the power battery will be much simpler. Let's put it this way, the wheels and axles are like a porcelain doll. In terms of power output, it is too heavy to be broken and light. Weak, very difficult, but now it has become a lump of iron, resistant to building."

His analogy got everyone in the conference room laughing.

"At most three months, we will be able to design a power battery pack and electronic control and vehicle control systems suitable for large-scale engineering vehicles. The next step is to look at production."

Zhong Cheng turned the topic to Zheng Yilun. Zheng Yilun thought about it and said: "Now the second phase of the power battery factory has been built, and the equipment has been installed and debugged. We can use a line to help you produce tens of thousands of sets. Come out and produce conventional power batteries again, I think Beizhong should be able to use it for a year or two, and then transfer production to you to produce another batch."

"There is no problem in delivering it to you for three months!"

Zhong Cheng and Zheng Yilun's reply gave everyone a reassurance, and the cooperation was considered a success.

"Several leaders, I have a project in hand that will use this chaotic alloy. I wonder if you can provide me with a batch. I don't need much, just a few tons."

Zhong Cheng struck while the iron was hot, taking advantage of the presence of the leaders to settle this important matter, and if he missed this opportunity, he would be in much trouble in the future.

Mr. Cao and Mr. Guo were stunned for a moment, Mr. Guo smiled wryly, "Zhong Gong, you don't want much? How many tons? We haven't put into mass production yet, so we only have a few tons. If we can wait a year , hundreds of tons are fine.”

"Oh, it doesn't matter for a year, but it's better to provide two hundred kilograms as soon as possible!"

It’s not like the lion opened his mouth to ask for a few tons. This chaotic alloy is not only the best material for making ion engines, but if his military drone fuselage is made of chaotic alloy, it will be perfect.

But [-] kilograms is enough for the trial production of Zhurong Electric Pusher.

Mr. Cao discussed with General Cheng and Mr. Wan again. Mr. Wan affirmed Zhong Cheng's request, and the matter was settled. Zhong Cheng was relieved and comfortable.

People look for him thousands of Baidu,
Looking back,

That person is in a dimly lit place!
