Thanks to Wang Donglai's performance, Han Ming was much less wary of Wang Donglai.
In the research institute, many documents were hidden from Wang Donglai.
As long as Wang Donglai wants to see it, Han Ming will be satisfied.
Of course, Wang Donglai also knows how to measure things, and did not look at the core materials involving key technologies.
The purpose of his visit and study was very simple from beginning to end, that is, to have a general understanding of the entire process.
After all, he is taking the private space rocket route.
If the technology is similar or involves technology patent infringement, that will be a big problem.
Han Ming was also very satisfied with Wang Donglai's knowledge.
It’s not that he is unkind, but that he is currently undertaking the task of developing rocket engines.
Our country’s aerospace development plans are all prepared in advance, so some work is arranged in advance.
Han Ming's task at this time is to prepare for the launch of the Long March series of rockets.
Because the purpose of each launch is different, there are also different requirements for the rocket.
The same will be reflected in rocket engines.
my country's aerospace technology started late and lags behind the West. The reason why it can catch up so quickly is to take small steps and move quickly.
Relying on rapid iteration, technology can be improved bit by bit.
Therefore, for Han Ming, his task was very heavy and he could not afford to delay.
Had Cheng Li not come forward and read the notice above, and Wang Donglai is an internationally renowned mathematician, which would be of some help to his research work, otherwise, Han Ming would not be able to say anything. Agree to let Wang Donglai join.
The current situation is already very good in Han Ming's opinion.
Next time.
Han Ming led his team to research without sleep or food, while Wang Donglai watched and studied quietly.
Just like what Wang Dong said before coming, come with only ears and eyes, only watch and listen, talk less and do less.
When encountering problems, Wang Donglai will also ask questions when Han Ming is not busy.
Han Ming did not coax Wang Donglai. When he encountered problems, he did not hide his secrets, but explained them carefully and in detail.
I have to say that after studying for a few days, Wang Donglai felt more and more that he was in the right place.
If he hadn't come, he really wouldn't know that there are so many tricks in rocket engines.
What you get on paper is ultimately shallow, but you know that you have to do it in detail.
In just a few days at the institute, Wang Donglai gained far more than the same amount of time spent reading materials.
After all, some things will be recorded in the data, but some will not be recorded.
But it is these unrecorded things that are the core.
Human cognition has only reached the atomic stage.
At the micro level, there are still many things that cannot be done.
So, it is said that the rocket engine is very precise, but in fact it is exactly the same thing.
After realizing this, a word emerged in Wang Donglai's mind.
Industrial cowardice!
While studying, Wang Donglai was also constantly thinking about his rocket engine design.
The full-flow combustion engine he mentioned to Han Ming before was not nonsense.
But he really thinks so.
SpaceX’s Raptor engine uses a full-flow staged combustion scheme, and the fuel also uses methane.
None of these things are new, but they are all popular with SpaceX.
A few years ago, SpaceX successfully launched, and some people in the aerospace field have begun to notice this. However, Wang Donglai discovered through communication with Han Ming that although some people have noticed the success of SpaceX, but for such There is still little confidence in the plan.
Only Wang Donglai knows that the future development of SpaceX also proves that this technical route is completely feasible.
Learn from SpaceX, which also adopts a full-flow staged combustion scheme, plus a stainless steel shell and methane combustion materials.
These things sound very simple, but the real core is the engine, the control system and so on.
Wang Donglai has maintained the same routine as Han Ming and others since he came to the research institute on the eighth day of the lunar month.
From eight o'clock in the morning until about eleven o'clock in the evening.
Apart from going to eat, the rest of the time was spent in the institute.
This kind of life reminds me of the time I was in No. 11 School.
It’s just that my identity has changed, so I haven’t encountered any trouble.
Wang Donglai also noticed a phenomenon in the research institute these days.
That means people are too busy!
Not all researchers are busy all the time.
A considerable number of researchers appear to be busy, but actually do nothing.
Fake busy!
Wang Donglai was not surprised by this situation.
After all, as I said before, the size of the aerospace group with hundreds of thousands of people means that such a situation is inevitable.
Although he only stayed for a few days, Wang Donglai could feel that some of the big company diseases that exist in big companies also exist here.
Even, in some places it will be even more excessive.
Shaking his head, Wang Donglai did not intend to interfere with this matter. After all, he did not have this identity or authority.
If he successfully pursues the development route of private space rockets, then these things will naturally receive the attention of the higher authorities and changes will be made.
Time passes day by day.
Wang Donglai was like a sponge, absorbing knowledge crazily.
On February 25th.
While Han Ming was busy sorting out data, Cheng Li hurried over with a hint of anxiety on his face.
"Old Han, the experimental machine exploded!"
Cheng Li didn't say much, just this sentence made Han Ming stop his movements.
"What is the specific situation?"
Han Ming acted very calmly and immediately asked about the specific situation.
Cheng Li was also a knowledgeable person, so he immediately told Han Ming.
There is no space rocket that does not explode.
For those who are engaged in this industry, they have already been mentally prepared.
Only laymen and people who don't know much about it would take the explosion as a big deal.
In fact, there have been many explosions in China, but most of the explosions were before the experimental stage and did not cause any damage to people or property, so naturally they would not be reported.
However, Han Ming has worked in this industry for many years, so he naturally knows that this is normal.
However, normal is normal, but it does not mean it is acceptable.
Although every time you fail, you will be one step closer to success, and you can also find some problems.
However, explosions always have negative consequences.
For example, it affects the research and development cycle and causes a waste of funds. If there are too many explosions, it will also create a negative impression of weak technology on the superiors.
Cheng Li quickly told the information he knew. After listening to it, Han Ming had a rough impression in his mind.
"Director, then I will go to the base immediately."
Han Ming made a decisive decision, which was also approved by Cheng Li.
In just a moment, Han Ming selected a few people in the team and prepared to set off for the base.
At this moment, Wang Donglai stood up.
"Han Gong, I have a merciless request, can you take me with you?"
Wang Donglai also heard what Cheng Li said to Han Ming, so he ordered people to prepare for departure at Han Ming When the time came, he took the initiative to stand up.
“No!”
Han Ming refused without thinking.
"Han Gong, I know the importance of this project. I have signed a confidentiality agreement, so there is no need to worry about me leaking the secret."
"In addition, I just heard what Director Cheng said According to the situation, I think I can help you after I go there."
Wang Donglai did not hesitate and recommended himself.
“Now that you heard it, what can you do if you go?”
"Besides, the place we are going to is also a national secret base. The conditions are not good, and you may not be able to bear it."
Han Ming also realized that his rejection just now was a little too quick and inappropriate. , the tone softened.
The gentle tone does not mean that Han Ming will agree to let Wang Donglai come with him.
“I think Han workers rushed over in such a hurry to analyze the cause of the explosion as soon as possible and investigate the design plan. In this regard, I think I can help a little bit.”< br>
Wang Donglai spoke very confidently, with confidence between his brows.
At this time, Cheng Li on the side spoke.
"Old Han, I think you can add Academician Wang. With Academician Wang's mathematical achievements, maybe he can really help you!"
Hearing what Cheng Li said, Han Ming pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "Academician Wang, I am a person who doesn't care about the situation and the people. I just rejected you, which is not the case." I hope you don’t mind if I have any objections to you.”
“I thought about it, and what Academician Wang and the director said makes sense. If Academician Wang doesn’t mind the difficult conditions at the base, we can set off together! ”
Wang Donglai didn’t pay attention and nodded immediately.
...
Sitting in the car and looking at the direction forward, Wang Donglai had a look of surprise on his face.
Han Ming noticed it and asked aloud: "Academician Wang, what are you doing?"
"Gong Han, I have to pass by here every time I go back to my hometown, but I didn't expect that there would be anything here. There is a base."
Wang Donglai explained to Han Ming with a smile.
"Academician Wang, the location of this base is also confidential information. This time we have a mission, so we can go in. So when we do things, we must pay attention to confidentiality. The location of the base must not be leaked."
< br>Han Ming was a little worried that Wang Donglai was too young and did not understand the importance of the secret base, so he reminded him seriously.
“I understand!” Wang Donglai nodded in agreement.
Next, everyone closed their eyes and meditated without speaking, preparing for the next work.
Soon, vehicles with special license plates drove into the base.
After arriving at the base, Han Ming didn't even bother to be polite to the leaders of the base, and went straight to the scene under the leadership of the staff.
At the explosion site of the rocket engine, a large amount of engine debris remained.
When Han Ming and others arrived, a group of people were already here.
“Han Gong!”
“Director Ding!”
After Han Ming greeted another middle-aged man who was obviously the leader of the base, he began to analyze the scene.
"Director Ding, you were at the scene and saw the whole process. What do you think caused the explosion?"
"Is it an engine failure, a control system problem, or a fuel supply problem? Unstable? "
Han Ming asked Director Ding beside him while analyzing the scene.
As the director of a secret base that can experiment with rocket engines, Director Ding certainly has real abilities.
Director Ding stood next to Han Ming, with a serious look on his face, and said: "It is still unclear what the cause is, but based on the experimental data, I initially judge that the fuel supply is unstable."
Han Ming He nodded and did not answer any more words, but analyzed the explosion scene in detail.
"Oh, by the way, this is the data recorded at that time."
As he said that, Director Ding pointed to the document placed aside.
Wang Donglai also came to the scene. After carefully looking at the explosion site, he heard Director Ding's words and his eyes immediately looked over.
After thinking about it, Wang Donglai asked Han Ming: "Han Ming, can I go and see that data?"
"Of course!"
Han Ming thought I agreed without thinking.
Director Ding was a little surprised and glanced at Wang Donglai.
"Director Ding, this is currently the most famous mathematician in our country and the youngest academician in our country!"
"I've said it all, you should know who he is by now!"
If we talk about the most famous mathematician in the country, we still can't confirm the identity of Wang Donglai, but they all talk about the youngest academician in the country. Director Ding naturally guessed Wang Donglai's identity.
"It turns out to be him, but isn't he a math major? Why did he come with you?" Director Ding asked with some confusion.
"Who said mathematicians can't do rocket science? Once you get in touch with Academician Wang, you will know what a genius is."
Han Ming glanced at Wang Donglai and said in a tone of voice Said this to Director Ding with confidence.
Hearing what Han Ming said, Director Ding suddenly became interested and said loudly: "Han Gong, it is rare for you to say the word genius from your mouth. I am curious about what kind of genius can make people... You admire it so much!”
While the two were chatting, Wang Donglai also got the data file and read it.
The document is densely packed with numbers. If it were anyone else, they might not be able to understand it for a while, or they might feel dizzy.
But Wang Donglai did not.
With his ability, he memorized these data in just a moment and analyzed them quickly.
While Wang Donglai was analyzing in his mind, Han Ming had almost finished his analysis.
"It shouldn't be a quality problem with the engine. Judging from the explosion scene at the scene, I am more inclined to think that the explosion was caused by an error in the control system!"
Han Ming frowned and gave his own explanation judge.
Director Ding said with a smile: "Han Gong, this is a product you designed, and you are the one who knows it best. I believe that with your ability, you will be able to find out the cause of the explosion, and you will be able to find out the cause of the explosion." The problem is solved. Now that you are here, I will feel relieved. All you have to do is tell me how to cooperate!"
Hearing this, Han Ming was about to give instructions.
However.
At this time, Wang Donglai spoke.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he directly overturned the previous inferences of Director Ding and Han Ming, and instead gave his own judgment. (End of this chapter)
