Chapter 706 Piston Propeller Engine
Li Mo did not know that in China, a girl who was forgotten by him for a short time was missing and waiting silently. At this moment, he had just finished the inspection of the missile area of the aviation industrial park and came to a simple office building with a steel structure, which is the office of the industrial park and the airline.
In a simple and bright office with a soft female surname, Li Mo lay on his back on the soft leather sofa, kicking the shoes on his feet on the coffee table without a trace of shape.
Fortunately, in addition to him, the owner is here in the office. Otherwise, his appearance will spread out and may become the best picture of the year.
The air conditioner in the office is buzzing, but Li Mo's mind is not here, but behind the small door in the northeast corner of the office. This small door is a bathroom door, and the owner of the office is taking a shower inside at the moment.
Suddenly, a smile appeared at the corners of Li Mo's mouth, because he heard the sound of water behind the door stop, indicating that the hostess had washed herself fragrantly and would soon wait for his luck.
The bathroom door opened, and Colonel Anli, dressed in a light green dress, came out with his hair. He winked at someone who had begun to shine green on the sofa and threw the towel aside.
A gust of fragrant wind blew, and the light green figure on his legs was already sitting in his arms. A pair of pink arms with white and red skin naturally hugged Li Mo's neck.
"Li, what are you looking at?" An Li almost exhaled her coquettishly against the tip of Li Mo's nose. Western women are famous for being intimate and bold when dealing with their lovers, and Anli is no exception. When she gets along with Li Mo in private, she is sometimes more active than Li Mo.
"Look at the scenery!" Li Mo smiled, poked out his hands along his eyes, and directly grasped the half-exposed Yufeng. The softness and towering feeling that was difficult to grasp in one hand made both of them sigh slightly.
An Li half squinted her eyes and stared at Li Mo. Her shoulders shook, and the sling slipped down the smooth skin. The dress that could block the upper body was slightly blocked somewhere, and she followed the usual surname and slipped to her waist. A pair of plump and straight pink jade peaks were perfectly exposed to Li Mo's eyes.
Li Mo didn't talk nonsense. He pressed the Yufeng on the left, buried his head and began to taste the most beautiful delicacy in the world
Yunyu stopped. After taking a mandarin duck bath, the two of them were dressed neatly and returned to the serious appearance of the formal occasion. If it hadn't been for the wisp of spring between Colonel Anli's eyebrows that exposed the movement they had just experienced, no one would know what had happened.
"Boss, our job in the afternoon is to inspect the Aerodynamic Research Institute. I have greeted Han Yu, the director of the Institute, in advance." After the moistening of Colonel Anli, he soon recovered and seriously reported his work schedule to Li Mo.
When Li Mo heard the words, he also put aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind and said, "Anli, tell us first about the work of the power office during this period!"
The main work of the Aviation Power Institute is to develop power systems for aircraft engines and other purposes. It is the heart of this industrial park, and the level of confidentiality is also the highest.
In Li Mo's plan, the air force is the focus of development, and aviation power is the focus of the development of the air force. No matter how perfectly designed an aircraft is, if it is not driven by a suitable power system, its surname will be greatly reduced.
As far as the aircraft itself is concerned, stealth structure and high mobility are the focus of future development. The stealth structure has achieved some results through the research of alien materials in the No. 9 laboratory of the former Camel Mountain Base. On the other hand, the study of the heart part of the aircraft is far behind. After that, after all, it was too late to start, and Li Mo lacked enough technical reserves in his hand, so it was impossible to achieve remarkable results in a short time.
"Well, I'll tell you briefly." Anli nodded and said, "The Institute of Aerodynamics was established a month and a half ago. Now it has 120 dynamics experts, engineers and technicians. It is the largest research department under the airline. Han Yu, the director of the institute, was born in the Comet Group and graduated from the Technical University of Munich... At present, the main part of the research institute The work is to sort out the development materials of aviation power in various countries at home and abroad, establish the research primary and secondary, formulate the research and development plan of the power institute, and implement the model of gradual development from scratch and at the first level, with a view to being able to come up with qualified engines for the needs of modern main fighters within two years.
An Li's introduction is very brief. She is not the person in charge of the power institute. She doesn't understand many things carefully enough. Moreover, some words can't be said by her, and there is no basis for her to say it. Only after Li Mo personally listens to the report and inspection of the power institute will she have an intuitive impression and understanding.
In the afternoon, Li Mo, accompanied by experts and An Li, came to a guarded area in the southeast of the industrial park. After two strict inspections, the group finally came to the core area of the power institute, a large laboratory built underground.
This laboratory was originally one of the three experimental bases built by Zheng Axe at the beginning of the year, but later it was bought by Li Mo, and the industrial park was built here, which has nothing to do with this laboratory.
In the plan, this large-scale comprehensive laboratory, which covers a wide area on the ground, is not used by the power station, but because many supporting facilities have not yet arrived and the researchers have not been equipped, only the power station is here at present.
Entering the first floor of the laboratory 30 meters below the ground through the elevator, Li Mo saw five or six people in white coats waiting outside.
This group of people is led by a young man about the same age as Li Mo. Li Mo has an impression in his mind that he is Han Yu, one of the members of the Comet Group at the beginning and the current head of the Power Institute.
Both sides are very familiar with each other, and there is not much greeting and politeness. At Li Mo's request, Han Yu led them around a few turns to a large laboratory, where more than 20 researchers were working. When they saw someone coming in, most people just glanced and continued their work.
When Li Mo walked in, he took a special look at the nameplate on the door of the laboratory: the power laboratory.
Looking at the glass outside, he couldn't feel anything. As soon as he entered the laboratory, Li Mo heard the buzzing roar and a pungent smell of gasoline, and his eyebrows frowned slightly.
"Boss, the environment here is not very good. Don't mind." Han Yu smiled awkwardly. He felt that the boss frowned because of the air and noise here.
"It's okay. Is the working environment here like this? These technicians are all treasures. If you work for a long time in this environment, it must have an impact on your health, right? Li Mo is not thinking about himself, but about the researchers working in it.
Only then did Han Yu understand that he misunderstood the boss. It was a little embarrassing, but he still explained, "Boss, the completion of this experimental base is a little hasty, and the ventilation system often fails. I'm making people repair it faster, and it will get better soon."
Li Mo also knew that they could not be blamed for this. He blamed himself for the big deal when he and President You Sufu proposed to buy the laboratory at that time. As a result, the political axe was unwilling to invest a penny, leaving him with a 'tofu dregs' project.
Immediately, Li Mo gave instructions to solve the problems of the experimental base as soon as possible, especially those about the experiment and the life of researchers, and arrange people to solve them immediately.
After this small accident, Li Mo's enthusiasm did not decrease at all. After looking for a while in a laboratory of nearly 100 square meters, he saw the source of noise.
"This is..." Li Mo looked at the strange machine in front of him and said in surprise, "Is this a piston engine?" Li Mo finally overlapped the simple machine in front of him with a picture in his mind, but he was still a little uncertain.
"Ha ha, the boss has good eyesight. This is a piston engine, which is also a milestone engine in the piston engine, the famous R-2800 piston engine. Is it popular? Hui Company developed the engine during World War II. The most famous aircraft using this engine was the P-47 lightning fighter. Because the R-2800, the P-47 fighter set a world record for the fastest flying speed at that time, and it was the pinnacle of the piston engines. Based on the discussion of each group and reporting to the company, we decided not to directly use the jet engine at the beginning, but to practice and integrate the research team with a piston engine.
Han Yu's explanation basically solves Li Mo's problem. In modern times, the piston engine is basically replaced by a faster jet engine, but this does not mean that the piston engine is useless at all. In the military, the junior trainer used in various countries to train pilots basically use the piston type. Engine aircraft, while in the folk, piston engine aircraft still have a large market, especially for flight clubs and flight enthusiasts.
Thinking of this, Li Mo suddenly had a new idea in his mind and said to An Li, "An Li, the airline does not have the ability to directly get on the jet plane. I think we can get the piston plane out first. In the plan of the Somali Air Force, in addition to aircraft, pilots are also very scarce. I think we can guide flight enthusiasts here and set up several flight clubs to attract more young people to fly in a private commercial way, so as to provide our air force with a large number of reserve pilots.
With all kinds of new ideas in his mind, Li Mo even wanted to go back to the office immediately to write them down.
Looking at the surprised eyes of several people, it seemed that they were scared by Li Mo's thoughts. Their purpose of making a piston engine is actually not as far-reaching as Li Mo thought. It is just to run in the new department of the power institute, the scientific researchers from all sides.
"Boss, I don't think it's necessary, right? Even if we set up a flight club to train pilots for the air force through commercial activities, we can buy some propeller planes by purchasing them, which are much cheaper than producing them ourselves. The expert said hesitantly. The production of an aircraft is not only as simple as the previous production line. Other supporting parts manufacturers, equipment, personnel, and personnel also need to design an aircraft separately. From design to verification to production, it requires a lot of human, material and financial resources. The most important thing is time, and the most lacking power at present is Time.
