Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 90 Dr. Lin Wei
The name "Houtu Super Engineering Vehicle" was recognized by all the leaders present, who all thought it was grand, appropriate and very characteristic of Chinese culture.

Zhong Cheng thought, you all agree, maybe some fake foreign devils would not like it.

They agree with names like Vulcan, Fengshen, and Hercules, but it's none of their business. It's best for us Chinese to use this super engineering vehicle.

After the ceremony, Mr. Cao and Mr. Guo led the people from Red Star Company to visit the relevant factories.

I have seen the production process of giant wheel hub motors, giant wheels, giant frame, giant body, etc. Anyway, everything in this Beizhong Group is big, huge!
When visiting the chaotic alloy production workshop under construction, Zhong Cheng met the long-known "baby" of Beizhong Group: Dr. Lin Wei.

To be honest, this doctor from Aoki University is not at all like a doctor, but more like an old technician who has worked in the factory for more than ten years. He has a thin figure, a thin face, high myopia, and his work clothes and hands are full of oil.

But instead, Zhong Cheng was very kind. He enthusiastically stepped forward and grasped Lin Wei's hands, and asked about the manufacturing process of Chaos Alloy.

Lin Wei was stunned for a moment, and then he heard that this "self-acquaintance" was the designer of the Kuafu power battery, and he became excited. The two "gesticulated" on the spot, and ignored all the leaders.

Mr. Deng and Mr. Cao looked at each other with a smile, and ignored the two of them. They continued to visit. After a while, the two companies will discuss further cooperation.

Mr. Deng intends to let Beizhong Group develop electric buses, large and medium-sized buses, and trucks. This is also a huge market, and Red Star Company has no spare capacity to enter this market now.

Although the main business of Beizhong Group is the production of large-scale engineering vehicles, although the market is very limited, it is better to eat meat by yourself.

Zhong Cheng and Lin Wei continued to communicate at the production site, and Lin Wei explained the manufacturing process of chaotic alloy to Zhong Cheng.

Chaos alloy is also a kind of titanium alloy. Instead of using traditional and popular technologies such as vacuum melting and isothermal forging, it adopts a new process.

Significantly reducing cost and energy consumption compared to traditional methods, the new process reduces manufacturing steps, reduces energy consumption, and produces titanium powder instead of ingots.

The powder can be pressed and smelted, and dozens of metals such as zirconium, cobalt, chromium, molybdenum, and palladium are added through ionization to form a brand new titanium alloy.

Previously, titanium alloys had three matrix structures (titanium alloy structures with different structures), and titanium alloys were divided into the following three categories: α alloys, (α+β) alloys and β alloys.

The industry is represented by TA, TC, and TB respectively, known as the three brothers of titanium alloy.

Now with the appearance of chaotic alloys, the γ alloy category TD has been added, and they should be called the four brothers of titanium alloys, but this γ alloy is much stronger than its three elder brothers.

Lin Wei said that there is only one type of gamma alloy at present, and a family of alloys will be developed in the future to meet different application requirements.

Zhong Cheng introduced the use of Chaos Alloy in Zhurong's push.

Lin Wei said that this chaotic alloy is only to meet the needs of huge torsional shear force on the bearings of giant engineering vehicles, and it does not match the high-temperature or low-temperature and high-pressure electromagnetic environment in Zhurong's electric pusher.

Give him some time, he will develop a chaotic alloy specially suitable for ion engines, and there will be huge room for improvement in the performance of Zhurong's electric pusher.

Zhong Cheng was very pleasantly surprised, and this kind of good thing made him happier than winning the lottery!
He even wondered if it was wrong for him to have been doing research in the laboratory all the time. If he had time to "chat" with experts in various large companies and R&D institutes, he might gain more.

But what he seems to lack the most is time, he can't help feeling a little distressed, there are always some unsatisfactory things in life!
Lin Wei is also very interested in Kuafu Power Battery and Zhurong Electric Push, both of which involve the application of superconducting materials that he is interested in.

His dream is to develop room temperature superconducting materials, which will bring a comprehensive leap to Huaxia Technology.

Just using it on transmission lines can save China more than 10% of electricity a year, which is a terrible figure.

The power loss during the transmission process is too great. Even China's most advanced UHV power grid loses as much as 3% of the power for a thousand kilometers of power transmission. The power loss of the general high-voltage transmission network is more than 10%. The farther the distance Loss is greater.

The two also exchanged views on the development of superconducting materials. Although Zhong Cheng did not disclose the production process of calcium intercalated graphene materials, Lin Wei was keenly aware of some of the key points.

He admired Zhong Cheng's idea of ​​using calcium metal atomic layer as the matrix of carbon atoms to form a new type of graphene material.

Although this method is a trick, it has achieved some superconducting properties under less harsh environmental conditions and brought the application of technology to scientific theory to the extreme. He is far inferior to Zhong Cheng in this regard.

Zhong Cheng sweated profusely, Lin Wei dared not accept Lin Wei's admiration openly.

A technology that the civilization of the 9527 home planet has long since abandoned, has allowed him to be praised by two genuine doctors successively.

Can he upgrade the Blue Star civilization from a planetary civilization to a star civilization in his lifetime?

As for the higher civilization in the future, he dare not think about it, and can only count on the efforts of his descendants.

The vast sea of ​​stars is the real home of mankind!

At noon, the two ate a boxed lunch at the scene and continued to "chat".

It wasn't until Director Qian came to find Zhong Cheng in the afternoon that the two reluctantly bid farewell. Director Qian also took the opportunity to invite Lin Wei to visit the R&D Institute whenever he had time.

Director Qian took Zhong Cheng to the relevant departments of Beizhong Group to handle the procedures for receiving the body of the Jingwei unmanned fighter. The two got on the large truck transporting the body of the fighter and decided to "escort" it back to the research and development institute in person.

Zhong Cheng told Director Qian that Lin Wei could develop a chaotic alloy that is more suitable for ion engines, and asked him to negotiate with the leaders of Beizhong Group, hoping to get the support of Beizhong Group.

When Director Qian heard this, he couldn't keep his mouth shut for joy. If the function of Zhurong's electric pusher is further improved, it is expected to lift a large aircraft of dozens or even hundreds of tons. The wish of the old leader may soon come true.

Dr. Lin Wei is such a treasure!

Can Lin Wei be recruited to the R&D Institute?
Regarding Zhong Cheng's question, Director Qian was noncommittal, he smiled mysteriously, and if he couldn't find any people, he just poached the company, and people came naturally.

Zhong Cheng suspected that he had heard it wrong. Director Qian, are you joking?
Director Qian said earnestly: "As bold as a person is, the land will be productive. Why are young people so conservative?"

Zhong Cheng: "..."

He really couldn't tell if Director Qian was joking.
