The Technology Tree of Xueba
Chapter 186 Near space airship
On September 15, Zhou Yu walked through the Longshou Building in person to observe the working status of the employees.
After he fired Lin Yun, the operation of killing monkeys and scaring chickens was a perfect success, and everyone's enthusiasm for work increased by 10 to 20%.
Zheng Zixin quickly took over Xinghuo Electronics Company, without causing any turmoil, and everything in the company was operating normally.
Lin Yun thinks too highly of himself, Xinghuo Electronics can still operate without anyone.
Zhou Yu returned to the office. He put on VR smart glasses and prepared to watch the airship developed by the company fly to the adjacent space.
The reason why he chose to watch through the virtual world instead of going to the scene was mainly because it took a long time for the airship to prepare for take-off, and this time it took 4 days to prepare.
The experiment cannot guarantee 100% success, and there is a certain chance of failure, which will waste his time.
Zhou Yu entered the designated virtual world and saw a huge shuttle-shaped airship floating in the space.
The chubby young man with a wrench standing next to him is the artificial intelligence Luban.
Little Luban, are you here to introduce me to the situation of the airship? Zhou Yu greeted.
Those homeboys are too shy, they can't explain clearly in front of you, so I can only do it for you.
Zhou Yu knew the situation of Wang Jin and those people. They were still doing research and development, but none of them had a good eloquence.
Introducing the situation of the airship is really not as clear as artificial intelligence.
Lu Ban began to give Zhou Yu a detailed introduction to the data of the airship.
The highest ceiling of the airship is in the cloud layer 120 kilometers from the ground, and the best ceiling is in the cloud layer 100 kilometers from the ground.
The air in the clouds above 100 kilometers from the ground is very thin, and it is already difficult to support an airship with a mass of hundreds of tons.
The airbag is made of ultra-thin organic material, filled with helium, and the entire airship weighs 1.2 tons.
The airship occupies an area the size of three football fields, and can easily lift about 500 tons of materials.
Small aeroengines are installed around the airship, which can slowly adjust its position in the air to resist strong winds at high altitudes and maintain the stability of the airship.
The neutrino communication base station is installed in the shield and is lifted by the airship through 132 ropes.
These 132 ropes are coordinated by the system, which can keep the neutrino communication base station stable and will not shake due to the wind direction at high altitude.
Zhou Yu stared at the scale model of the airship in the virtual world. Its structure is very simple, consisting of airbags, a skeleton and the hoisting system of the airship.
Zhou Yu connected to Wang Jin's airship testing base through the virtual world, and found that they were still assembling huge airships.
They must ensure that every connection point of the airship is tight, and the airbag is not damaged by air leakage, so as to ensure that the airship can rise to the adjacent space normally.
Zhou Yu noticed that Wang Jin's process of developing the airship was very difficult and solved many problems. It was not as simple as he thought, just screening existing technologies.
He began to focus on the reasons for Wang Jin's previous failures.
In the first experiment, because the airbag was too large, the speed of the airship rising too fast, the airbag of the airship was directly impacted by the airflow, and the experiment failed.
In the second experiment, Wang Jin changed the material of the airbag of the airship and specially reinforced the airbag of the airship. He found that the airship rose very fast, and the vibration caused by friction with the air could easily damage the vibration-sensitive base station equipment.
In the third experiment, Wang Jin reduced the size of the airbag of the airship, so that when the airship rose to 18 kilometers from the ground, it hovered at this height and stopped rising.
The fourth is the experiment. Wang Jin uses a modular airship. When the airship rises to a certain limit, high-pressure helium will fill an airbag.
Through the method of gradual relay, the airship can maintain a steady ascent speed in the air, and its ascent height can also be enhanced.
The research on the experimental airbag was basically successful, but it was found that the fixed anchor on the ground was directly pulled up by the flying tower.
Unable to fix the airship, the experiment failed. They could only remotely control the airship to release helium and let it land slowly.
For the fifth experiment, Wang Jin made a concrete foundation of nearly one acre and buried it 10 meters deep.
This foundation is very strong and will not be pulled up by the airship, but when the airship rises to the specified height, a strong wind directly breaks the steel cable that pulls the airship.
After analysis, the toughness of the steel cable is insufficient, and its own weight is very large, which leads to the disconnection from the weak point.
In the sixth experiment, Wang Jin used a lightweight rope made of organic fiber and graphene fiber.
Its weight is very light, and its toughness is also very strong, which is very suitable for fixing airships.
The test experiment found that in the adjacent space, due to the influence of airflow and other factors, the airship will float back and forth.
They tried to limit the range of movement of the airship through multiple ropes.
...
In the 16th experiment, it was found that in the adjacent space, because the atmosphere is very thin, many extra-cosmic rays pass through the thin atmosphere and irradiate the airship and base station equipment, affecting the operation of the equipment.
Zhou Yu saw that many experiments were carried out during the development of the airship, and each time some problems were found and many problems were solved.
Even if Wang Jin announced the successful development of the airship, many situations still occurred during the formal test.
Immediately, a capable young man appeared in the virtual world. From his youthful face, it could be seen that he was a college student who had just graduated.
This person is Wang Jin, the scientific research assistant of the Institute of Force and Mechanics and the person in charge of the near-space airship project.
Wang Jin reported confidently: Mr. Zhou, we have finished testing the airship, and now it can take off.
Zhou Yu snapped his fingers, and the virtual world immediately turned into an airship testing base.
His virtual image also appeared at the airship test base at the same time, and everyone's movements began to synchronize.
This is a very wide application of VR technology in reality, which allows people to experience the situation in a place far away from him personally.
Zhou Yu set his sights on the very huge airship suspended at a height of about 15 meters above the ground.
It has hoisted a platform the size of a football field with a 1:1 scale model of a neutrino communication base station.
The entire platform is covered by multiple shields of different materials to prevent equipment from being damaged by cosmic rays.
The airship can go into the air, it's time to test its ability. Zhou Yu ordered.
Wang Jin heard Zhou Yu's order, and he immediately began to direct the people to let the airship lift off.
There are more than 10 ropes connected to the airship to restrain its movement, and these ropes are respectively connected to the foundation.
As the airship gradually lifted into the air, the mechanical equipment on the ground also began to retract and release the ropes according to the flying attitude of the airship.
The airship ascended at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour, rising steadily all the way without encountering any twists and turns.
Zhou Yu paid attention to the situation of the airship for a while, and then he started to deal with the normal work of Spark Technology.
Five hours later, when Zhou Yu was eating, he heard Wang Jin's joyful voice.
Mr. Zhou, we placed the airship in the adjacent space this time, and it was a perfect success. All the technologies have met the requirements for carrying the neutrino base station.
Zhou Yu immediately came to the virtual world to control his virtual projection at the airship testing base.
His virtual image showed a smile, and praised Wang Jin: You have done a very good job. This time, all of you have been promoted to researchers and are officially in charge of the near-space airship project.
Wang Jin and all the project members cheered immediately, and their efforts finally paid off.
