Whether it’s the 24 Rainbow Solar UAVs in the stratosphere or the Z-9 that just arrived, or even the Aviation Technology Group that “sent people to the sky” and the aviation company that “sent people to the west” in the past two months The "new energy" launch vehicles developed by the people of the Science and Technology Group are inseparable from Huang Diamond, a product that has begun to change the development process of China.
Energy has always been the most troublesome issue for the aerospace industry.
It can be said that the design and development of all aircrafts depend to a large extent on the existing energy types. If there is a kind of energy that contains huge energy, the instantaneous output energy can be freely adjusted. It should be larger when it should be bigger and smaller when it should be. When you are young, what impact will it have on the aerospace industry?
Take rockets as an example. Nowadays, most of the mass of launch vehicles is used for propulsion, but the actual payload is very pitiful because it is all made of chemical fuel. Other nuclear thrust, electric thrust and reactive mass propulsion are still there. In the middle of bullshit.
This directly limits the design weight of the satellite. It must not be too heavy, but it must be light, durable, and powerful.
The cost keeps rising like this, and everyone has to check and check again and again before launching a satellite, for fear that a bad money will be wasted. It takes a long time for a satellite to be built and launched.
It is precisely this that makes satellites a top-notch "luxury product" that only big players can afford.
And when the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Starring Technology discovered the ideal energy source of yellow diamonds, everyone was opened to a new world.
Yellow diamonds are stable in nature, pollution-free, have ultra-high energy density, and are easy to use. Although the energy density is only one-six-hundred and fifty-fifty of black diamonds, there are many more in stock than black diamonds, and they can also win blue stars. Of all the existing energy sources, if we were to be more realistic, we might have to wait until the interstellar era to invent some kind of universal energy source that is more cost-effective than yellow diamonds.
In the past, when satellites were designed and produced, every step was checked again and again, for fear that the quality would be as much as 0.01 grams too high, and that would be money!
Now that there are yellow diamonds, many designs no longer need to compromise on the power propulsion of chemical energy. Even the guys who specialize in sending people to the sky are convinced by Chen Yi, as long as Chen Yi provides the yellow diamonds needed for launch. , let alone crickets with dozens or hundreds of kilograms of satellites, even things with several tons or dozens of tons can be sent to the sky within this year.
However, Chen Yi doesn't have that kind of demand yet. What he needs is the stratospheric unmanned aerial vehicle and the super-loaded unmanned transport helicopter that are currently on trial, both of which use yellow diamonds as energy sources.
At first, he wanted to frantically change the IL-76, An-124, and Mi-26 toys into unmanned models using yellow diamonds as energy. However, after Starring Technology and AVIC First and AVIC Second After a week of research, everyone threw the relevant plans directly into the wastebasket, and since then everyone started to let themselves go.
Because everyone found that this is just riding a donkey to find a donkey. Blue Star's aircraft have various design ideas, but there is no doubt that these designs are designed to be more fuel-efficient when the fuel they carry is limited. They don't need it now. Worrying about energy, and Xi and Xuanyuan Goudan ensure the safety of driverless driving.
Therefore, all designs began to become radical. After referring to a bunch of detailed information on Soviet aircraft given to them by Chen Yi, everyone began to make crazy modifications.
In the end, the Mi-26 was transformed into a straight-9 streamlined design. The cab and cargo compartment were all cut off, and electronic information equipment was added. Many other functions such as external weapons and auxiliary fuel tanks were also designed. It has been cut. For the time being, everyone only needs the Z9 to be able to lift heavy enough things. The bigger the payload, the better.
In fact, a group of people are still a little conservative. According to the data of Zhi9, it is no problem to directly double the payload. However, due to various considerations, everyone feels that they have to eat step by step. After all, the cost has been greatly reduced. They said that they had just robbed Niu Guo, a big player, and now they have a lot of money. The research and development cost is 5 billion RMB, and the production cost is 18 million RMB per unit. In their opinion, it couldn't be cheaper.
After a period of trial testing and summarizing the data, we found that we can continue to improve, so the new Z-9 prototype with a payload of 300 tons has been produced. We are waiting for the test flight data to come out to see how the situation is.
As for the rainbow solar-powered UAV with ultra-long standby time in the stratosphere over Western Xinjiang, it was the result of a collaboration between Anaheim UAV and Aerospace Technology. Chen Yi directly copied the product of the same name that was successfully tested in the past 17 years by Aerospace Technology.
The initial design of this drone was to use inexhaustible solar energy as its driving energy source. As long as the mechanical and electrical conditions permit, the drone can stay on standby in the stratosphere for months or even years.
It has the characteristics of a quasi-satellite and can be deployed flexibly. Basically, the network of twenty-four in the stratosphere covers all border areas of Western Xinjiang. Together with some unmanned vehicles on the ground, Xi will carry out regular supervision, and if the Western Xinjiang If Xinjiang officials allow it, everyone at the border can directly connect to wifi.
However, for the time being, this project is only for military use. The corresponding civilian model is the "Feiyun" stratospheric solar inertial vehicle in the "Five Clouds and One Vehicle" project jointly launched by Anaheim, AVIC First, and Aerospace Science and Technology. The ultimate goal of Man-Machine is exactly the same as the project of the same name that Chen Yi carried out in his previous life 17 years ago, aiming to promote the construction of China's space and information infrastructure.
To put it in a down-to-earth way, state-owned enterprises and private enterprises are working together to carry out technical research to reduce the cost of launching satellites, and to cover the mainland's "local area network" around the world, and finally enter the 5g era and then look forward to 6g.
The project is still in the experimental stage. Yes, the twenty-four Rainbows are all experimental products, used to collect stratospheric flight data. It is not like the previous simulation calculations before putting the aircraft into the sky. Now that there is Yellow Diamond, we can directly do it first. Throw a bunch of them up and check the situation and see what improvements need to be made. Drones are cheap anyway.
In the future, all stratospheric drones will still use solar energy for energy. After all, although the yellow diamond stock is relatively wealthy, it is still within the category of strategic resources. Except for some rigid needs for scientific research or special circumstances, everyone still tends to use it. Traditional energy.
However, although the stock of yellow diamonds is not large, it is only a drop in the bucket to deal with the situation in Xijiang. Chen Yi roughly estimated that only 1 ton of yellow diamonds is needed, ignoring the time for maintenance during the period, which is enough to install 1,000 aircraft- 225, the largest aircraft on the Blue Star, has been flying at maximum speed 24 hours a day for 6 years, and the cost is only one ton of gold and one gram of black diamonds.
And Chen Yi will soon receive 240 tons of gold, plus the dozens of kilograms of black diamonds he owns. He is not bragging. In the next fifty years, he will not be able to cover the energy consumption required by China's aerospace industry. Question, of course this is impossible, but he is still prepared to spend ten tons of yellow diamonds to accompany the large-scale construction work in the west.
It is the combination of these factors that led the mainland to agree to the "large-scale seawater desalination into Xinjiang" project, which sounds ridiculous.
As for seawater desalination, Blue Star has actually been researching it for a long time. Especially the big business owners in Camel Country are the most concerned about this project. They have now reduced the cost to four yuan per ton of fresh water. Of course, there are also other aspects of this project. Because the local oil price is extremely low, the electricity bill will also be lower when the oil price is lower.
Unlike the mainland, one ton of seawater desalination costs 8 or 9 yuan.
At this time, a ton of tap water in the mainland costs about two or three yuan, and electricity accounts for at least five yuan in the cost of seawater desalination. Now that there are yellow diamonds, Chen Yi's idea of "desalinating seawater into Xinjiang" can be implemented. This is what he thought of This is the fastest way to implement it without using water resources from other regions to support Western Xinjiang.
In addition to the Guangdong Chip Alliance, the Qinglong Study Group’s investments in the mainland have all planted their flags in the west intentionally or unintentionally. Chen Yi does not want to get involved in involution with the group of people on the eastern coast in a few years or more than ten years, so he vigorously Open up development space in the west.
You roll up yours, wouldn't it be nice for us to lie flat in the west?
