I failed a course, and the system became my study supervisor.

Chapter 67 Configuring a Bionic Flow Field
On Monday, Shen Huanan arrived at the laboratory safely.

Xu Ling and Yu Wenkai have started data simulation.

"How is it going? Is there any flow field that is more suitable?"

Shen Huanan put his hands behind his back, bent over, looked at the computer screen in front of Xu Ling, and asked.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Ling replied, "Currently, the best one is the serpentine flow field, especially when the porous carbon insert (PCI) is inserted into the cathode ribs in a zigzag pattern."

"Good, are you still going to continue?"

Shen Huanan asked softly.

"Of course we have to continue. Who knows, there might be a better solution?"

Xu Ling answered immediately.

"Then let me remind you that the deadline for your research project is this Thursday. You must submit your papers and reports by then."

Shen Huanan said emphatically.

Xu Ling's mood instantly became nervous.

It seems we must hurry up!

In a blink of an eye, two days passed.

"Student Xu Ling, have you started writing your final report? Time is running out."

Shen Huanan asked.

"Hmm," Xu Ling scratched his head and said, "We've just finished testing the traditional flow field types, but haven't tried the bionic flow field yet."

"Then you should do this for now and present the best one you have found."

Shen Huanan's tone was a little tough.

"But what if the bionic flow field is much more effective?"

Xu Ling was unwilling to give up.

"Time doesn't allow it. We only have one day left. Besides, a bionic flow field isn't necessarily better than a traditional flow field."

Shen Huanan looked a little anxious.

He continued, "You guys should finish the final report first, and then you can continue your research when you return to the Magic City, okay?"

It’s not as convenient to go back to Shanghai as it is here, and there may not even be the new version of PEME there.

"Teacher, please believe me. I will definitely be able to submit a report tomorrow."

Xu Lingli issued a military order.

Shen Huanan didn't know what to say, so he waved his hand and let Xu Ling continue with the experiment.

I hope he can hand it in on time.

The so-called bionic flow field is a new type of flow field that is different from the traditional flow field.

Its core concept is to get inspiration from nature.

Adding M-type blockage to the DC field also has bionic implications, but its overall framework is still the DC field, with no fundamental changes.

Typical bionic flow fields include tree-shaped, leaf-shaped, blood vessel-shaped, lung-shaped, and so on.

The flow field Xu Ling ultimately adopted was the lung-shaped flow field. As the name suggests, the design of its flow channels is very similar to the arrangement of capillaries on the lobes of the lungs.

Furthermore, the lung-shaped flow field is an optimization of the serpentine flow field. It not only possesses most of the advantages of the serpentine flow field, but also enables the hydrogen to be evenly distributed within the flow field, thereby achieving an appropriate flow rate and pressure drop. This seems to be very similar to the lungs of living organisms.

Although the optimal flow field has been found, time is extremely tight.

It was already twelve o'clock on Thursday night, and the report was supposed to be submitted, but Shen Huanan fought for Xu Ling and allowed him to submit it at eight o'clock on Friday morning.

Xu Ling and Yu Wenkai had to sacrifice their sleep time.

"You complete your own paper, and I'll write the final report."

Yu Wenkai was the first to propose.

"Then your task will not be too heavy."

Xu Ling didn't want to take advantage.

"It's okay. I'm very efficient. If you've finished and I haven't, you can come and help me."

Yu Wenkai's tone was very confident.

Xu Ling nodded: "Okay!"

It took two hours for the two to finish all the work.

Xu Ling let out a long sigh, twisted his stiff neck, then packed up the paper and report and submitted them by email.

"Finally it's done."

Yu Wenkai felt tired but also a little emotional.

Suddenly, he turned to look at Xu Ling and asked, "By the way, where are you planning to publish your paper?"

"Just publish it in Power Supply Technology. I see that Professor Shen and his colleagues' papers are all published there."

Xu Ling thought for a moment and replied.

"That's OK. Although it's not SCI, it's also a Chinese core journal."

Yu Wenkai responded.

Huh? It's not SCI?
That won't work!
After the experience of publishing a paper last time, Xu Ling had some understanding of the value of these paper journals.

He doesn't think his ABS system can't issue SCI.

So Xu Ling asked, "Is there any SCI publication that is suitable for my problem?"

"JPS! Journal of Power Sources, with an impact factor of around 8."

"So do you think my ABS can do it?"

"Let's try it!"

JPS? Xu Ling remembered it in his mind.

At this time, Yu Wenkai asked again: "Who are you going to list as the corresponding author?"

"Teacher Shen, who else can I write for? Oh, by the way, you can be the second author."

Xu Ling's voice was a little excited.

"There's no need for a second work. Just sell the patent to me when the time comes."

Yu Wenkai said lightly.

"Patent?" Xu Ling was stunned for a moment. "No! Are you really going to buy it? I thought you were joking."

"What a joke! Who's kidding? I've just graduated from college and am planning to start my own business. Your ABS is very promising."

Yu Wenkai couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Looking at the radiant Yu Wenkai, Xu Ling felt a little impressed, but he did not agree to the patent issue directly.

Let’s talk about it then.

The final defense officially began at ten o'clock the next morning.

Xu Ling and Yu Wenkai both came to the designated classroom with dark circles under their eyes.

In fact, this shouldn't have happened if he had gone to bed at two o'clock, but unexpectedly, Yu Wenkai seemed to open up and insisted on pulling Xu Ling to discuss his business plans.

Xu Ling didn't know when he fell asleep, he only knew that it was almost dawn outside.

"Student Xu Ling, you must have been very tired working on your report yesterday. Look at the dark circles under your eyes!"

Chen Qingguo said with some anger.

Xu Ling had no choice but to nod resentfully, feeling a little warm in his heart.

"Well, your report and paper are fantastic! They're definitely the best of all the students, and the ideas are very new and cutting-edge. Would you consider publishing it?"

Chen Qingguo first praised it a lot, and then asked.

Xu Ling then explained his idea of ​​publishing in JPS.

Without a second thought, Chen Qingguo said, "Great! We can definitely give it a try! Also, if necessary, you can add my name as the corresponding author. That might make it easier to get the manuscript approved."

"Thank you, Teacher Chen!"

In fact, Xu Ling had this idea a long time ago, but he had not contacted Chen Qingguo during the research process and was embarrassed to bring it up.

I didn't expect Chen Qingguo to take the initiative to bring it up.

Of course Xu Ling was extremely grateful.

Afterwards, Chen Qingguo and several other teachers took turns asking some questions, all of which were very simple, just a formality.

But at the end, Chen Qingguo also mentioned the issue of patents. He suggested that Xu Ling apply for a patent at the same time as publishing the paper, so that both sides can review it at the same time and there is no need to worry about wasting time.
