Chapter 270 Micro Nuclear Reactor
After listening to Zhang Yi's words, Huang Xiru didn't say anything anymore. After all, since Zhang Yi had already laid out measures in these areas in advance, she didn't have to worry about anything. Indeed, except for the countries of the Dahua Empire, no one else had these technologies. It can be guaranteed that these technologies will not be stolen.

"Okay! Let's talk about these things later, let's take a look at the performance of these materials first."

After speaking, Zhang Yi looked at the latest alloy material developed by Song Sicheng. According to the data, this is a very powerful special alloy. Its main raw material is steel, and rare metals such as hafnium and titanium are also added. Material.

The weight of this special steel is very light, even only the same weight as aluminum alloy, but its strength, hardness, stress, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, corrosion resistance and other properties far exceed aluminum alloy materials, even Titanium alloy is far from being comparable to it. It can be said that it is an extremely ideal aerospace alloy material just like ordinary titanium alloy.

At the same time, it also has advantages that ordinary titanium alloys cannot have. First of all, the high temperature resistance of this material, the melting point of ordinary titanium alloy materials is generally around [-] degrees, and the ideal working environment is below [-] degrees. Song Chengsi The melting point of this developed alloy is as high as [-] degrees, and it can work at a high temperature of nearly [-] degrees for a long time without deterioration. At the same time, the coefficient of thermal expansion is also very low.

However, this material also has the same disadvantage as titanium alloy, that is, the manufacturing price is very high, even twice as high as that of ordinary titanium alloy materials.

The second material is a graphene high-temperature superconductor material. This high-temperature superconductor has very good superconducting properties, and its melting point is even higher than that of the previous alloy material, reaching more than 600 degrees. , and at a temperature of more than [-] degrees, its superconducting performance will not show an obvious downward trend.

It can be said that these two materials are very good aerospace materials, but the manufacturing price of these two materials is very high and can only be used in a small range and cannot be popularized at all.

"Mr. Song! These two materials developed by our laboratory are excellent new materials, but they still have a big disadvantage, that is, the cost of these two materials is too high. Any of these two materials The cost of this kind of material is more than [-] yuan per gram, and such a price is destined to be unpopular, and we only use it in a small area. I wonder if Mr. Song has any solution to solve this problem?" Zhang Yi asked.

"In terms of cost, I don't have any good solutions. After all, these two materials need to use some rare metal materials, and the price of these rare metal materials is very expensive, but without these metal materials, the performance of the material will be reduced." It will be greatly reduced, but if it is mass-produced in the future, the production cost may be reduced, but it will not be reduced by much, unless we can get cheap materials." Song Lao said.

After staying in the material laboratory for a while, Zhang Yi and Huang Xiru came to the photonic computer laboratory again, and saw the photonic components developed by the photonic laboratory in the laboratory.

That is to say, with the successful development of photonic components in the photonic laboratory, the development of photonic computers by their Qicaishi Group has entered a new stage. According to the personnel of the photonic computer laboratory, the first photonic computer in their laboratory will be in It will be released within a month, which makes Zhang Yi very excited.

At the last moment, Zhang Yicai and Huang Xiru came to the electric aerospace engine laboratory of Qicaishi Group. At this time, there was a huge engine in the center of the laboratory. The length of this engine was at least five meters, and the diameter At least [-] centimeters or more, and the nozzle of the engine is at least [-] centimeters.

This made Zhang Yi very puzzled. You must know that before he went to their Qicaishi Group to acquire the shipyard last time, he had already told the current directors of the laboratory, Mr. Qi and Mr. Lu, to let them focus on Above the small electric aero-engines, let’s put this kind of large-scale electric aero-engines first. After all, large-scale electric aero-engines have a huge demand for electricity. The batteries developed by human science and technology can’t supply this type of engines at all. electricity demand.

But he frowned, and he couldn't blame the two gray-haired persons in charge in the laboratory, so he said, "Old Qi! Old Lu! What is this engine?"

"Boss! I know what you mean, you have already said before, let us focus on the development of small and high-thrust electric aero-engines, but we have no interest in these civilian small-scale electric aero-engines. It doesn't fit our identities, so I handed over this matter to the original person in charge of your laboratory, that is, Qian Gong and the others. At most, we will guide you from the sidelines.

But even so, the process of small electric aeroengines is still very fast, and it will definitely produce results in a short time.

As for the engine in our laboratory, it is actually not an aero engine, but an aerospace engine. "

"."

After hearing what Lao Lu said, Zhang Yi was speechless for a while, but it is normal to think about it. As a top scientist before the first level of civilization, it is indeed a disgrace to develop civil micro-aeroengines. It is no wonder that Lao Lu and the others do not willing.

So, he walked around this old Lukouzhong aerospace engine, and found that this engine was indeed very different from the previous aviation engines of their company.

While he was looking around the engine, Lao Lu on the side said, "Mr. Zhang, this is a 50-ton electric medium ion aerospace engine, which is what people often call a plasma aircraft engine. When the engine is working, it also needs media to complete, but the media required by this engine is the most common air and water.

That is to say, this engine is a multifunctional engine, which can work both in the atmosphere and outside the atmosphere. In the atmosphere, air and water can be used together as the medium to work. Once it reaches a high-level space with thin air or After space, you can simply use water as a medium to work.

Of course, as an electric aerospace engine, the most important energy it consumes is electricity?However, compared with the electric aero engine we developed before, the power consumption of this engine is much less, but it also needs [-] kilowatts of electricity per hour. "

After hearing Lao Lu's words, Zhang Yi was still a little disappointed. Although compared with the previous electric aero engine, the power consumption was much smaller, only about 1/100 of the original, but the demand for power was still quite large. The huge size is simply not what the current battery reserves can provide.

Perhaps seeing Zhang Yi's disappointed expression, Lao Qi on the side said, "Mr. Zhang, I know what you are thinking. Regarding the power problem, we have already thought about the corresponding countermeasures, that is, to develop A corresponding micro-nuclear reactor, for us, there is not much difficulty, because Lao Qi was engaged in this kind of research work in his original universe before he came to the current universe. Over time, he has achieved some results, and now he has started the design of related drawings."

After hearing Lao Lu's words, Zhang Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Old Qi, what Lao Lu said is true. Can you really develop a [-]-kilowatt-hour micro-nuclear reactor?"

Zhang Yi still knows a little about micro-nuclear reactors. After all, not long ago, some newspapers in the Dahua Empire reported that the space agency of the beautiful country and their Ministry of Energy have jointly developed a micro-nuclear reactor. test.

According to reports, their miniature nuclear reactor is only the size of a plastic trash can that we usually put garbage in, and its diameter will not exceed 10 centimeters. Of course, the output power of their miniature nuclear reactor is not large, the largest is only [-] kWh , so he never thought about using a miniature nuclear reactor.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, it is not too difficult for me to develop a 20-kilowatt micro-nuclear power plant, but due to the problems of human technology in your world, it may still be a bit large in size. It is estimated that the minimum diameter can only be reduced to about two meters, and the weight may exceed [-] tons.

However, the specifics will not be known until it is developed. At the same time, as long as we successfully develop the first miniature nuclear power plant, then we can gradually improve it in the future to reduce the diameter and weight. "

Speaking of this, Mr. Qi paused for a moment, and then said again; "But Mr. Zhang, because the manufacture of miniature nuclear power plants requires nuclear fuel, but our Qicaishi Group currently does not have any nuclear fuel at all, so even if I design a miniature nuclear reactor, our Qicaishi The group doesn't have any raw materials to provide me with experiments, I hope Mr. Zhang can think of a way."

After hearing Mr. Qi's words, Zhang Yi suddenly felt dizzy. You know, this is a nuclear material, not any other ordinary material. How can it be so easy to get it?However, for the future aerospace business of the Colorful Stone Group, he could only bite the bullet and nodded to Mr. Qin and said: "In terms of nuclear fuel, I will try my best to find a way, but even if we conduct experiments in this area, we will It cannot be put in the headquarters of the Colorful Stone Group for experiments. I think you must know the danger of nuclear fuel.

How about this!In a few days, I will go to the Daxi Province of the Dahua Empire to take over a large abandoned air force base as the aerospace manufacturing and launching center of our Colorful Stone Group. Then you and I will go together!At that time, experiments in this area will be carried out there. "

After all, a densely populated place like Jiangnan Province is not suitable for nuclear experiments, so it is best to conduct experiments in the western desert area.
