Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle.

Chapter 161 Research data on aircraft engines, what the hell is this?

Because Yang Ning had been on a business trip for more than a month, on his first day at work, Tian Jianming and his colleagues brought him a thick stack of information.

"You are finally back. If you hadn't come back, Dean Qian and the others would have personally come to Shanghai to invite you back."

After putting down the information, Tian Jianming did not leave immediately but poured himself a cup of tea, sat on a chair beside him and said to Yang Ning.

Yang Ning glanced at him and asked in confusion, "What happened? I remember that Dean Qian also knew about my trip to Shanghai. It was he who helped Mr. Wu get in touch with him!"

Tian Jianming blew the tea leaves in the teacup, took a sip, and then said, "How would I know about this? I'm just an errand boy. But these few days, every time I went there to get information, Dean Qian would ask if you were back."

"Then he didn't ask you to tell me to come over immediately after I got back?"

"Not really." Tian Jianming closed the lid of the teacup, stood up and said as he walked out.

"Since you didn't let me go over right away, then it's nothing important. Don't worry. Let me finish processing these materials first, and then go over there to take a look." When Yang Ning heard that he was not asked to go over right away, he was no longer in a hurry.

However, watching Tian Jianming leave with the teacup, Yang Ning seriously suspected that he just wanted to have some tea with him, and Dean Qian and the others were just by the way.

A lot of data and information has been accumulated over the past month, and it seems to cover research in various fields.

"It looks like we'll be busy for some time to come!"

Yang Ning sighed with emotion, and then immersed himself in processing the data accumulated during this period...

As Yang Ning processed each piece of information, he also saw from these materials our next development focus.

In addition to the three major pillars of computers, missiles, and atomic bombs, because the Type 56 tank (the original Type 59) was successfully rolled off the production line ahead of schedule, we have begun to independently research our next generation of tanks based on this tank.

"Magic Modified Old 59... Oh no, should Magic Modified 56 be online now?"

It is not difficult to see from the data sent by various research units that the tank we designed is actually based on the existing tank, combined with the high-horsepower diesel engine technology we previously obtained from Hans. While improving the engine, we also added three-defense equipment and infrared night vision goggles.

The main gun was also changed from the original 100mm rifled gun to a smoothbore gun.

This may be the first time that it is modified, so there are not many changes this time.

In addition to some technical research for improving tanks, Yang Ning also discovered that we have begun to develop our own aviation engines.

Moreover, the aircraft engines did not strictly copy the existing technology of the big brother, but based on their technology, they began to tentatively make some improved designs.

Although it remains to be seen what the engine's performance will be like after these modifications, it is at least the first step.

You know, we know that now, except for the engine of the CJ-5 propeller aircraft, which can be manufactured by ourselves, the engines of all other jet aircraft have to be imported from our big brother.

It turns out that in history, it was also this year that we developed our first jet engine, the WP-5.

However, history took a turn here, because of the rapid development of our industrial technology and materials during this period, especially the success of titanium alloys and the emergence of CNC machine tools. A certain airport in Northeast China, which was originally able to produce our first engine in a few months, actually disdained to copy the big brother VK-1. Although this engine is also a jet engine, the MiG- equipped with it cannot even achieve supersonic speed, so what is the use of it?

Let's not talk about developing the latest P-21 turbojet engine used on the MiG-13, which allows this aircraft to perform double-two flight. We have to at least build the AM-19B used on the MiG-9. At the very least, we have to be able to produce the engine for the J- that will be able to make its maiden flight next year.

What about the J-5? Well, even though the J-5 had only been in the sky for a short time, the J-5, which couldn't even fly at supersonic speed, had already become a Niu lady when the J-6 was about to be successfully developed.

The higher-ups also intended to treat Wu Ye as a transitional product and did not plan to produce a large number.

We just want to develop our own talent in this area during the production process and use it to let our Air Force learn to adapt to jet flying.

Wait until Sixth Master ascends to heaven, then let it take care of Sixth Master. After bringing Sixth Master out, Fifth Master will retire and enjoy his old age.

After all, Big Brother’s dual-fighters have already taken to the sky, and we can’t still rely on the slow Fifth Master to protect the safety of our airspace.

Yang Ning looked at the information and immediately started to calculate. If this engine can be successfully developed, we will only be one generation away from the world's advanced level. With the current level of aircraft engine manufacturing, plus Yang Ning's assistance, it will not be difficult to catch up with this generation's gap.

But the more Yang Ning calculated, the more something seemed wrong. We also use the mainstream axial flow design for this engine.

After all, compared with the centrifugal type, the axial flow design has the advantages of small cross-section and high compression ratio.

However, after structural and power calculations, Yang Ning found that the thrust of this engine had reached 48.6 kilonewtons, and the afterburner thrust had reached 60 kilonewtons.

Perhaps you still don’t have an impression of what I said, but you will know if you compare it with the engine of its big brother, the MiG-21, which just took off into space.

The P21 engine used by the big brother MiG-13 has a maximum thrust of 50.01 kN and an afterburner thrust of 64.72 kN.

It is obvious after this comparison that the engine we designed is not much worse than the engine used in its big brother MiG-21.

Moreover, our engine plan is prepared for Liuye, and Liuye is just a supersonic aircraft, while MiG-21 is a dual-war fighter.

"This is outrageous!"

Yang Ning was still afraid that he had made a mistake, so he calculated the technical parameters on the drawing again, and only then was he sure that the Northeast Aircraft Manufacturing Plant had indeed produced such a weird thing.

However, just because a design is made doesn’t mean it can be manufactured. After calculations, Yang Ning discovered that if we want to achieve the design parameters on the drawing, high temperature resistant materials would be a big problem. But if we make slight changes on this basis, it would be more than enough for Master Liu to use.

Of course, this is just a compromise on our existing technology, and it does not mean that this engine is useless.

When we need to develop dual-tank fighters, the design of this engine can be used directly as long as the material problem is solved.

You should know that in history, our research on the dual-class fighter plane Qi Ye has experienced many ups and downs.

Just the introduction of key technologies such as technology and engines cost nearly 21 million yuan, and this does not include the cost of the Big Brother, with whom we had already broken off relations, forcing us to sell the MiG-.
