From university lecturer to chief academician.

Chapter 323 R&D Acceleration, Open Superconducting Motor!

Val-Cronin's ideas represent the ideas of most antigravity experiment teams.

Based on the discoveries of annihilation physics theory, edge effects of superimposed force fields, and the influence of strong magnetic fields on edge effects, they all believe that in-depth research on the construction of superimposed force fields will definitely lead to some new experimental discoveries.

The new experimental findings may represent new physical phenomena.

This is the right path, but it requires a lot of financial support.

Many teams are expecting new discoveries from large-scale superimposed force field equipment, but they don't want to spend money to participate in the experiment for a short time, mainly because it is full of uncertainties. In addition, the research team of Los Alamos Laboratory, Not enough for them to make up their minds to get involved.

If Wang Hao's team took the lead, many teams would definitely join without hesitation.

That's the difference in influence.

From everyone's point of view, if Wang Hao is involved in research, he will definitely be able to produce results, but the Los Alamos Laboratory, or the original Philip's team, is not sure, let alone Val Cronin, a newcomer The person in charge, even if he has achieved results in the application of superconducting technology, anti-gravity research is a brand new topic. He still needs results if he wants to gain a foothold, let alone gain recognition from other teams.

You must know that anti-gravity is the ultimate major international physics research, and the leader of each team can be said to be a top physicist.

Val Cronin is indeed an excellent scientist in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the field of anti-gravity research, he is nothing at all.

In fact, it is like the research of the nuclear fusion tokamak device. Many people recognize the research of the tokamak device and believe that it can promote the development of controllable nuclear fusion technology. Despite the uncertainty, some directly related institutions will invest, while others will just take a look.

Now the various anti-gravity teams in the world are more interested in the research and technology in front of them.

The fancy research is the edge effect of the superimposed force field. Wang Hao organized an anti-gravity conference, and many teams joined in and participated in the research of the superimposed force field.

They also created a brand-new data sharing website, which has data uploaded by various teams, and analysis based on the data has also achieved many results.

Some teams have created strong magnetic fields to study the influence of strong magnetic fields on the edge of the superimposed force field. There are also several experimental results that have been published in top journals and reported by many media.

Among them, the new discovery of the Faguo experimental team is the most amazing. They found that the magnetization effect will be amplified by superimposing the edge of the liquid metal, that is, the same metal, liquefied at high temperature and then passing the edge of the superimposed force field, the magnetic field emanating from the surface will increase.

This discovery was reported by the "Nature" magazine, which aroused the attention of the international physics community, and was also considered a major discovery in the study of 'strong annihilation force'.

The new discovery of the Faguo experimental team also shows that in the field of annihilation force research, there is not only a way of "manufacturing high-intensity superimposed force field equipment", other research may also have new discoveries, and its significance may even be greater than that of manufacturing high-intensity superimposed force field equipment. The discovery of force fields was even more significant.

That being the case, why spend a lot of money on experiments that don't necessarily have results?
At this stage, it is also very important to digest the anti-gravity technology disclosed by florists.

This direction has attracted the attention of various countries in the world. Many countries have invested a lot of funds to study superconducting battery technology and horizontal anti-gravity technology. The purpose is to manufacture anti-gravity aircraft.

The performance of the flying saucer exposed by the florist has greatly shocked the world.

The aircraft can fly at an altitude of [-] meters, and it can also carry a large number of missiles. It is a real aerial fortress.

To think about it...

The current anti-gravity aircraft has only just been put into research and testing, and it will definitely be more perfect in the future, and the technology will become more mature. What kind of performance it will show by then is beyond imagination.

Many teams also analyze the images exposed by the florists' anti-gravity aircraft to determine the direction of future research.

In the field of technology application, there are still many outstanding people.

One of the technicians at Fenlan pointed out, "Many designs of the flying saucers used by florists are not yet perfect."

"For example, the power system."

"Their flying saucer uses electric propulsion, which also limits the altitude of the flight."

"Actually, it's easy to think of a more perfect solution, such as using a superconducting motor to drive a fan to eject nitrogen gas from under the aircraft."

"The coolant used by the flying saucer is likely to be nitrogen, and during the operation of the flying saucer, liquid nitrogen needs to flow continuously, and a lot of nitrogen will be ejected."

"If the design can be perfected and a motor is used to drive the ejection of nitrogen gas as a power supplement, the height that the flying saucer can rise will be greatly increased, and it may be able to directly enter space for more than [-] kilometers."

This design is the same as Wang Hao's idea.

If a superconducting motor can be used to drive the fan to rotate at high speed, and liquid nitrogen can be ejected from below, as long as the flow balance is mastered, it will be enough to support the suspension of the aircraft.

This propulsion method is very similar to a 'rocket', and is completely different from an electric propulsion.

Electric propulsion relies on the rotation of fan blades to push air and provide power, and because of this, the design of electric propulsion will limit the height of anti-gravity aircraft.

The higher the ascent, the thinner the air, and the less and less thrust the electric thrusters can produce.

The two reach a balance, which is the maximum height of the aircraft.

This is also the reason why the flight height of conventional aircraft is limited.

If the exhausted nitrogen can be used as power, and the superconducting motor can be used to discharge it efficiently, as long as the nitrogen is sufficient, it can continue to generate power, and theoretically the aircraft will no longer be limited by the ascent height.

Of course.

There are still many problems. For example, the amount of coolant that the aircraft can carry is limited, and liquid nitrogen is not consumed quickly as a coolant. There is still a balance issue to consider.

This design can only be used as an auxiliary power means.

Wang Hao also has the same idea in this regard, but he still has to face three major problems in order to realize it. One is higher power superconducting batteries.

One is a superconducting motor.

Finally, there are issues of balance and stability in use.

Because the high-speed discharge of nitrogen gas is only a means of auxiliary power, the main power is still the "basically no consumption" electric propulsion, so it is necessary to balance the two powers, and the most difficult thing to grasp in the "rocket" propulsion is stability.

The problem of superconducting batteries can be solved by adding energy storage coils and improving the power control system according to the new design.

The stability issue driven by nitrogen exhaust still needs continuous experiments to study.

Superconducting motors have also come to a solution.

Even if it is a conventional electric thruster, it must be more efficient to drive it with a superconducting motor.

Wang Hao found some free time, so he arranged to go directly to Capital University, and found Professor Dou Yan of the Mechanical Power Laboratory.

The current Wang Hao is unusual. He just came here for technical issues, which is a major matter for any organization.

Capital University made impromptu arrangements, and Vice President Zhang Xiqin led a team to greet them at the door.

After Wang Hao got out of the car, he exchanged greetings with everyone, and then, accompanied by Zhang Xiqin and Dou Yan, he went to the mechanical power laboratory, and directly explained his purpose along the way.

Dou Yan knew the news in advance, and he was a little flattered. He never thought that the research he led would be favored by Wang Hao.

"Academician Wang, we have indeed made breakthroughs and innovations in the research of superconducting motors."

Dou Yan first affirmed his own research, and then said with some embarrassment, "But the technology is far from mature, and the prototype we made cannot be used for a long time."

"Also, I don't understand why you found us."

He explained, "There are many researches on superconducting motors in the world, and several designs have even applied for patents. This is just a technical application."

To put it bluntly, there is no technical difficulty in superconducting motors. The feasibility study is the conventional motor principle, and then it is manufactured using superconducting materials. However, to maintain superconducting performance, a cooling system must be added.

Wang Hao explained, "Professor Dou, don't belittle yourself, not only your motors cannot be used for a long time, but the Academy of Sciences, Western Polytechnic University and some large companies have similar research, and the motors they have developed cannot be used for a long time. "

"There are many superconducting motor designs that have registered patents in the world, and the manufactured motors will also encounter this problem."

"In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a matter of stability and balance. After a long period of use, the cooling system may fail, coupled with the impact of the high magnetic environment..."

Wang Hao patiently talked about professional issues.

Dou Yan kept listening and nodding. He is a professional researcher in this field, so he is naturally aware of the problems encountered in the research of superconducting motors.

He found that what Wang Hao said was very professional, and his understanding was not much worse than his own.

After Wang Hao finished speaking, he said, "I came here because of your open new design."

Dou Yan was taken aback for a moment, and then said in surprise, "Isn't it difficult to realize that design? We just made the design and wrote the report."

Wang Hao said with a smile, "I decided to come and take a look after reading that report. Your open design is really difficult to realize, but it happens to be related to the research I'm doing, and maybe it can be combined."

He didn't give any further explanation.

Zhang Xiqin and Dou Yan looked at each other, and they both understood.

Now the most important topic in the world is the anti-gravity aircraft. The research on the aircraft has not disclosed the relevant personnel, but it is likely to be directly related to Wang Hao, because Wang Hao is in charge of the anti-gravity research.

Then the research Wang Hao mentioned is likely to be an anti-gravity aircraft.

"If you put the open motor design on the anti-gravity aircraft, that is, put the cooling system and the anti-gravity cooling system together..."

Dou Yan was a little excited when he thought about it.

He never imagined that his research would one day be applied to such high-end technology.

This matter is enough for him to talk about for a lifetime!
Of course, because of the confidentiality issues involved in a short period of time, it must not be revealed casually, but just thinking about it is enough to make him excited.

After arriving at the mechanical power laboratory, Dou Yan simply came up with a detailed design plan. The design report they submitted was just an abbreviated version, and some information was not specifically written.

After Dou Yan took out the design plan, he explained it to Wang Hao in detail.

He explained and said with a sigh, "This open design is indeed very good, but it is too difficult to realize."

"Although we can't make a prototype, and we can't experiment, but if you think about it, you will know that you will encounter various problems."

Wang Hao followed suit and nodded.

There are many problems, the cooling system control cannot be bypassed, including power control, especially after high-speed rotation, it is not easy to control power transmission.

In fact, it is similar to the quench protection problem of the SMES technology energy storage coil. When the superconducting coil rotates at high speed, various problems will appear in the control system.

Wang Hao and Dou Yan talked about many professional issues, and finally took away all the design proposals.

This is also good for Dou Yan.

If his superconducting motor design scheme is used, the superior department will also give a certain reward, and the results will be confirmed and recorded, and it will be much easier to apply for the project in the future.

……

Wang Hao returned to the anti-gravity aircraft experimental base in Xihai with the design plan of the open motor, and then found a dozen electric power experts to discuss the open motor plan together.

Their research team lineup is much stronger than Dou Yan's team.

Each of the participating personnel is at least at the level of professors, researchers, and senior engineers, unlike Dou Yan's team, and some are students.

This large group of professionals discussed a design plan together, quickly found out the problems of the plan, and demonstrated how to modify and improve it.

But some problems still cannot be solved, Wang Hao asked everyone to come up with a plan, discuss and find a solution together, and demonstrate in detail the overall design and each problem.

Originally, there were only thirty or so pages of design proposals, but they were modified and added from the first page, and then gradually became fifty or one hundred pages.

Such discussions lasted for a week, and the design proposals became a big stack.

After Wang Hao finalized the final plan, he immediately assigned the work and asked others to reorganize and submit each component.

After that, it is to find a cooperative factory to manufacture.

Although only a superconducting motor prototype is manufactured, 27 factories are needed to distribute each part. The most difficult part to manufacture is the most important coil, which takes half a month to complete.

After all the work is done, the next step is to wait.
