Chapter 967: Hyperspeed Wind Tunnel Laboratory and Aerospace Vehicles (page 13)
Although rocket explosions do not happen often, they do occur every year.
This time, the starship finally exploded on the test platform, but it did not bring any bad impact on the reputation of Venusstar Technology.
It even made Venusstar Technology more well-known.
After all, the forty-story-high appearance of the starship still gave everyone a very big impact.
The world's largest launch capacity should not be underestimated.
At Venusstar Technology, they were also intensively analyzing the cause of the problem. They eventually found that the design requirements of a pipe in the engine did not match the needs of the engine under maximum thrust conditions, resulting in fuel leakage and causing the explosion.
This rectification is actually not difficult at all.
All departments quickly took action and began to prepare for the production of the next prototype.
At this time, a new laboratory of Venusstar Technology was officially put into use.
Taking into account the particularity of this laboratory, Venusstar Technology invited relevant personnel from AVIC and China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.
These are all potential customers of the laboratory.
"Mr. Cao, Mr. Zhao, your ultra-high-speed wind tunnel laboratory was built just in time."
"With this laboratory, our research on many hypersonic weapons and aircraft will be greatly enhanced."
Qian Junfeng didn't expect that Venusstar Technology had quietly launched another satellite.
Major aviation countries definitely have wind tunnel laboratories.
Even some car manufacturers have their own wind tunnel laboratories.
However, the ultra-high-speed wind tunnel laboratory is definitely different from the ordinary wind tunnel laboratory.
Human beings have an aerospace dream and always want to fly faster, higher and farther.
As early as the 20s, Qian first defined the concept of "hypersonic flight".
In the future, a new generation of aircraft will be able to travel thousands of miles per hour, allowing international trips to take place early and return late.
The research and development of a new generation of aerospace vehicles is inseparable from an important scientific device - the hypersonic wind tunnel.
Hypersonic wind tunnels artificially generate and control high-speed airflows, simulate the flow of gas around an aircraft, and obtain the aerodynamic characteristics of the aircraft, which is equivalent to artificially building a "flying sky" on the ground.
The faster the aircraft is, the stronger the "wind" produced by the wind tunnel is required.
Scientists measure flight speed using the ratio of flight speed to the speed of sound - the "Mach number".
During hypersonic flight, the huge kinetic energy of the aircraft will generate strong head shock waves and frictional resistance, heating the air around the aircraft to thousands or even tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, causing complex chemical reactions such as dissociation of air molecules and ionization of atoms.
"Thermochemical reactions in the air around the aircraft are beyond the scope of traditional gas dynamics research. We need to create new theories to describe them and build new wind tunnels to test them."
"We at Venusstar Technology are now fully committed to the development of various missiles, aircraft and other products, and the demand for wind tunnels has greatly increased."
"Ground tests for the development of new aerospace vehicles require even more powerful hypersonic wind tunnels."
Zhao Siyu has very high expectations for this new laboratory of Venustech.
Whether Venustech can continue to lead the development of the aerospace industry in the future is closely related to the integrity of various experimental equipment.
The hypersonic wind tunnel experimental platform provides a powerful tool for Venusstar Technology's hypersonic development. Now it can carry out scientific experiments that "can do what others cannot do, do what is difficult for others to do, and do what others are not good at", and solve those problems that "cannot be done, cannot be done well, and cannot be done accurately".
It will definitely provide support for the design and development of many products in the future.
Qian Junfeng was obviously very clear about this.
"Aerospace vehicle?"
Zhao Tianling from AVIC keenly grasped a key word from Zhao Siyu's words.
Although this was not the first time he had heard of this thing, even within AVIC, there was discussion about whether to cooperate with China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation to develop an aerospace vehicle.
But there has been no formal project yet.
This was originally secret information between AVIC and China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. I didn't expect to hear related content from Venusstar Technologies now.
"Boss Zhao, has Venusstar Technology already been researching aerospace vehicles?"
The American space shuttle at that time was considered a typical aerospace vehicle. It could not only fly within the atmosphere, but also fly in space.
But the final fate is not very ideal.
Now that Venusstar Technology is planning to develop aerospace vehicles, Zhao Tianling is really looking forward to what it will look like.
“We do have a team developing related products, but the product has not yet been finalized.”
Zhao Siyu was not sure whether he was suitable to talk about the specific content of this product that had not yet been disclosed to the public, so he did not prepare for detailed communication.
However, the other party certainly doesn't want to give up easily.
Even Qian Junfeng from Aerospace Science and Technology was chasing Cao Yang and asked, "Boss Cao, this hypersonic wind tunnel laboratory is indeed very beneficial for the development of aerospace vehicles."
"We at Aerospace Science and Technology are also discussing the development of an aerospace vehicle with AVIC."
“Why don’t the three parties merge their projects together and discuss the development of this product together?”
Qian Junfeng feels that with the participation of Venusstar Technology, this aerospace vehicle will appear in front of everyone more quickly.
So I really want to pull the other party into the project.
Otherwise, it would be a bit awkward if the product they and AVIC have worked hard on for many years turns out to be inferior in performance to that of Venusstar Technology.
"The aerospace plane will be one of the key weapons for countries around the world to compete for air and space supremacy in the 21st century."
"America, the North Pole, China, and Germany are all researching space planes, but no one has actually succeeded. Most plans still rely on disposable launch vehicles to launch, similar to the old-fashioned space shuttle concept."
"Ideally, as a future aircraft, the space plane can take off horizontally like an ordinary aircraft and fly in the atmosphere at a hypersonic speed of 1.6 to 3 kilometers per hour. At an altitude of 30 to 100 kilometers, the flying speed is 12 to 25 times the speed of sound."
"Moreover, it can be accelerated directly into Earth orbit and become a spacecraft. After returning to the atmosphere, it can land at an airport like an airplane, becoming a means of transportation that can freely travel between heaven and earth."
"Before this, aviation and aerospace were two different technical fields, with aircraft and spacecraft operating in and out of the atmosphere respectively. The aviation transportation system was reusable, while the space transportation system was generally not reusable. The space plane can achieve full reusability and significantly reduce the cost of space transportation."
"AVIC has extensive experience in the aerospace field, Aerospace Science and Technology has accumulated many years of experience in aerospace flight products, and Venusstar Technology is involved in both aspects."
"I think the three-party cooperation can definitely produce very good chemistry."
