Chapter 1629 Major Breakthrough

Yang Yuanzhao would come over every once in a while. In addition to mastering the overall situation and providing some theories for the overall design of the radar, he would give some materials. These are the latest materials that can be refined by all-in-one machines. In the all-in-one machines, there have been shown that they can be used in the radar.

All aspects of materials are also something that Yang Yuanzhao has truly laid the foundation of masters in this world. He owns all-in-one machines. Even if he has no research on this aspect in his previous life, with the help and comparison of all-in-one machines, his strength in materials is very high, and it is easy to find some problems that ordinary scientific researchers cannot find. Yang Yuanzhao can even find some directional errors, sometimes the role of materials that even the experimenter has not discovered, can be clearly displayed when put into the all-in-one machine.

It is precisely because of this that even in this era when radars have just been put into use, it will take 50 years to be able to be miniaturized, miniaturized radar has reached its final stage. Last time, when Yang Yuanzhao arrived, the progress of this project had reached about 850%. However, the aircraft's radar modification had been carried out for 4 rounds. Ten aircraft had already been consumed, and two of them had fallen down. At some point, the radar was tested for the ultimate performance, and in this case, it was easy to cause danger.

When last week arrived, Yang Yuanzhao still remembered that the basic radar index was 82.5 kilometers in detection range and weighed 6.05 tons, which was close to the limit. Most of the materials used in the entire radar were completely different from the initial ones. Even based on some new theories born from some materials, the improvement of the radar module was promoted from the side. The radar design gradually developed to a better development. If the radar mission was not urgent, there would be no more time, after careful study, it would be impossible to upgrade and replace the radar with three or five years.

Unfortunately, the war with the United States is imminent. According to the news received by Germany, at most 40 battleships in the United States will be launched in the water in one year. If by mid-1917, it will even reach 64, and dozens of battleships will be built. In this world, except for China, it is the United States. Before obtaining British warship technology, the Americans could not reach such a height. However, once they obtain British technology, the technology between Britain and the United States will eventually produce chemical effects and ultimately demonstrate the strength of the American superpower.

Fortunately, about 6 tons have reached the critical point. He has left more than a dozen materials before, which are enough to reduce the weight by another 200 kilograms. Don’t underestimate this number. It is a good breakthrough to reduce half a kilogram at present. The traveler who travels a hundred miles is half a ninety, and now it has reached the final breakthrough point. According to this progress, Yang Yuanzhao estimated that it would take 3 months to complete it.

The car parked in the parking lot, went upstairs in the elevator, and after several tight security checks, he finally arrived at the core laboratory. What surprised Yang Yuanzhao was that there were no one in the core laboratory. The radar laboratory can be said to be the most dynamic and serious laboratory in the entire Northwestern University. Such a laboratory has a young team and they almost have to reach the limit required before leaving. This is the first time when there is no one in the laboratory during working hours.

What happened? Yang Yuanzhao walked into the core area of ​​the laboratory with such doubts. Soon, he met a researcher who was coming out in a hurry. When he saw Yang Yuanzhao, he was surprised and immediately informed him of good news. The completion of the radar has greatly increased. The wonderful combination of two newly discovered materials has changed the concept of radar. Although it is not as revolutionary as Doppler and single pulse, small-scale adjustments can be carried out, saving at least 600 kilograms of weight, reducing the weight of the radar from more than 6 tons to about 5,400 kilograms. The most important thing is to die. Using these two materials and theories can in principle improve the radar performance by 60%.

This is an amazing news. With the current radar detection range of about 80 kilometers, if it expands by 60 kilometers, it will reach about 130 kilometers. This has been improved from medium-range to long-range. The detection range of radar reconnaissance aircraft installed has almost doubled. The most important thing is that 80 kilometers, in theory, can also be used to detect optical distances, but it is more than 100 kilometers. Due to the relationship between the earth's curved surface, it is almost too difficult to find, unless there is accurate positioning.

Yang Yuanzhao hurried to the laboratory. Sure enough, in this core laboratory, a core machine that had just been made was lying on the laboratory bench. Because it had just been assembled, the core machine looked a bit ugly. Fortunately, Yang Yuanzhao didn't care. Most of the things completed in the laboratory were like this, and they even had some beautification.

Standing in front of this core machine is the current chief scientist of Air Base Radar. He is an excellent radio genius. He was once just a little beggar who was wandering to Baotou. The development of Baotou gave him the opportunity to learn knowledge. He was born intelligent, and he showed outstanding talents in his studies as soon as he came into contact with him. He was gradually promoted by Yang Yuanzhao and entered the materials science laboratory.

This started from materials science and then entered the field of radio, and after accumulating some knowledge, he was sent to the United States and Germany to study. This young scientist, who is less than 27 years old, has always been highly expected by Yang Yuanzhao. He also followed Trass for a while. When Yang Yuanzhao was not there, he was responsible for it. Last time, Yang Yuanzhao pointed out the next path and provided 5 new materials. Fortunately, among these new materials, he accidentally mixed the two materials and applied them. Not only did he replace the most difficult area, but he could even replace other areas, greatly reducing the weight and increasing the performance. The total weight of this successful radar was reduced by 600 kilograms, and the performance was 60% higher than before.

"Liu Zhi, how about it? Have you verified it?" Yang Yuanzhao walked to the core machine and asked.

"It has been verified that the performance indicators have exceeded the standard. I haven't applied the voltage yet. I guess it will be better if I apply the voltage!" Liu Zhi's face was filled with a smile and he said excitedly.

"Very good?" Yang Yuanzhao nodded and said: "How is the structural analysis? Is it possible to reduce performance and weight loss!"

"This!" Liu Zhi showed a embarrassed expression on his face. After all, this core machine was lucky. If this process is repeated, there should not be too much problem. However, it would be difficult to reduce performance and weight loss. I have not learned all the things in it!

After seeing Liu Zhi's expression, Yang Yuanzhao knew what was going on. He was engaged in scientific research and knew very well that this was very difficult. In a sense, the weight of 5.4 tons is almost the same. It cannot be said that it is the most suitable, but it can also be applied to aircraft. For heavy bombers, this is completely fine. Even medium bombers, considering other structures, can reduce the weight of 400 kilograms.

But with the hope that Yang Yuanzhao still pressed his hand on the core machine. He used the scanning function of the all-in-one machine to carefully analyze the situation of which two materials. In the end, the performance of the entire radar was clear at a glance. Sure enough, this radar did not reach the limit of performance. If the core voltage is guaranteed and two of the modules are simply adjusted, the performance of this radar will be further improved to a higher level, reaching about 180 kilometers, which is 100 kilometers higher than the original one, but it is almost impossible to lose weight.

In the all-in-one machine, it is also explained that the reason why this radar has such excellent performance is because the 12 core components, especially the two new materials, play the finishing touch. Once any part of these 12 cores is missing, the performance of the radar will be greatly reduced, even worse than the previous ones.

The entire core machine has a total of 16 core parts, 4 of which have used a lot of new materials, and there may be weight reduction. These 4 parts, combined, are only 600 kilograms, and all of them can be subtracted to meet the needs. This is almost impossible for this era. It is a blessing to be able to reduce one-third of them.

In other words, the performance cannot be reduced and the weight is difficult to reduce. This result did not disappoint Yang Yuanzhao. The reason is very simple. Radars rely on performance. Under the premise of increasing weight by 10%, the performance is doubled. Even in later generations, when every place on the aircraft is accurate to gram, it is enough to choose heavier. Although later generations are because radar is the eyes, the measurement range of the radar directly determines the range of the missile. Otherwise, a missile with a range of 300 kilometers without the precise guidance of the radar, even a missile with outstanding performance is just a decoration.

Since it is difficult to reduce the weight, it is not satisfactory, with an additional 400 kilograms, but the performance improvement can improve the availability of radar a lot. Not every radar has such excellent performance. Even if it is successful in building the company, plus the weight, it may not be able to achieve this effect.

After understanding all this, Yang Yuanzhao didn't say much. The effect of the all-in-one machine can only be buried deep in his heart and solved the problem of this radar prototype. The strength of China's navy is just around the corner. In terms of radar, don't be so anxious. Even if Liu Zhi and the others continue to study on this radar, it is not impossible. Yang Yuanzhao's opinion that this possibility is too small, but technology is just after repeated failures, and this is the success.

After Yang Yuanzhao arrived, Liu Zhi took the initiative to hand over the right to shape the radar to Yang Yuanzhao. The fundamental reason for Yang Yuanzhao to judge is that it is difficult for anyone else to decide on this matter except Yang Yuanzhao, because the overall indicators were determined by Yang Yuanzhao alone. To be honest, Yang Yuanzhao did not expect this matter, but Yang Yuanzhao did not hesitate and decisively passed this plan. Although, in the future, we will continue to study and reduce weight becomes secondary. How to increase performance under the same quality, or in other words, under the same circumstances, the most important thing is to integrate the software and data bus, but the first batch of at least 100 aircraft with this radar installed will start to be built, including 70 medium-sized and 30 heavy-sized ones.

It can be seen that Yang Yuanzhao attaches great importance to radar. All medium-sized aircraft are sea-based and will eventually reach 300 in the future. Only after meeting the needs of sea-based will they gradually face land-based. Before that, the reconnaissance aircraft transformed by heavy bombers became the main force of land-based radar.

Once each fleet aircraft carrier has 8 medium-sized radar aircraft installed, the entire fleet's reconnaissance power will definitely be able to reach several levels. At that time, it will be how to use software to better calculate and show the enemy faster. China's missiles have not yet reached a certain level, but standardized rockets have appeared. Combining radar and aiming systems can effectively save the pilot's energy and increase the ability of fighter jets. Although fighter jets have not yet been able to install radar, they can use medium or heavy to test to accumulate experience for future radars to install fighter jets.

This can be used for future jet-type front-facing radars. Although jet-type is still under development, I have already understood some theoretical things, but the production is actually very difficult. Of course, if Yang Yuanzhao monitors the entire process of this production, it is still possible to make it successful. After all, the materials in the all-in-one aircraft are far better than the current materials. It should not be difficult to solve the problem of jet aircraft.

In itself, due to the material relationship, China has surpassed the piston engine and directly moved the turboprop. Even if it looks the same, its performance is almost different. Turboprop engines are stronger than piston engines in all aspects, and fuel-saving is enough to be excellent. Most piston engines are short-legged. Except for a small part, the remaining range is not high and cannot play the role of strategic bombers. However, turboprop has this natural advantage. The range of a single-engine is far enough, not to mention

To talk about the subsequent multiple attacks, China not only surpassed the US's b17 in terms of 4-engine strategic bombers, but also basically reached the level of b29 around 1915, which is extremely amazing. It is already outstanding before other people's planes appear, and there is no need to pursue jet type. This is also China's goal. How to move to a deeper level on the basis of turboprops is the correct path for China. As for the others, it is all about pulling seedlings to grow. (To be continued.)
