A guide rail was inspected on both sides, the first time by the machine and the second time by the worker. As a result, the machine inspection passed, but the manual inspection was marked with three circles. As a result, the machine was tested again and it was found that there was a small dent in these three places, possibly due to uneven cooling, etc.! But this pit is so small that even the most advanced instruments cannot detect it at the first time. You can imagine how small it is. Ordinarily, such flaws will not affect the safety of the guide rail in theory.
But Chen Feng doesn’t think so. If you do it, do it the best!
This plan was so important that it undertook the turning point of the empire and human civilization. It was the first time that mankind launched a space probe after reunification, and it was a high-speed space probe. It is far from comparable to the low-speed Voyager launched by the United States that year. Even if it is one-tenth the speed of light, its speed is still as high as about 40,000 kilometers per second!
Therefore, as the person in charge of this plan, Chen Feng really devoted himself wholeheartedly. Among the workers who inspected, there was even Chen Feng’s father, Chen Xingping, a top worker who was personally interviewed by Zhang Jingyuan!
"Gong Chen, thank you for your hard work." Seeing this scene, Zhang Wenliang had to bow slightly to express his gratitude to Chen Xingping. It was a gesture of gratitude to those who were willing to give their all for the Empire.
"Then...Your Majesty...you are killing me. Old Chen, I will know this thing all my life, and I can't do anything else if you ask me to do it. Isn't this just idle time, come here and have fun. Haha...just come here Just for fun..." Chen was excited and a little incoherent.
But Zhang Wenliang certainly couldn't think like this. After watching it for a long time, how could that kind of concentration be on playing? And on these hands. There are even some small scars from burns and the like. Suddenly, Zhang Wenliang felt that he should do something. For these workers, who dedicated their lives to the development of the empire, they also left behind a legacy of pain. Occupational diseases...this should not be an injury that workers should bear! It should be a national disgrace!
Gently patting Chen Xingping's calloused right hand, Zhang Wenliang said a thousand words, but they only condensed into one sentence: Thank you for your hard work. The empire will not let you sweat, bleed or shed tears.
Afterwards, Zhang Wenliang visited the Clairvoyance space factory. Clairvoyance, the factory itself does not have such abilities! However, the items it produces. But it gives humans a vision beyond the solar system. At first. All space factories have no names, only numbers; because their functions are almost the same, and they can only be regarded as advanced continuations of the earth factories.
But the current Clairvoyance space factory is different. This is mankind's first factory specifically designed to produce equipment for exploring the universe. The implications are far-reaching. It deserves a special title from the empire!
Distinctive design. Let the Clairvoyance Space Factory be as dazzling as a pearl in space. Large or small glass pods cover the surface. Like a layer of dreamy scales, the Clairvoyance looks like a starry sky monster. And internally, it is a collection of various high technologies. Many top workers have been deployed across the country to ensure that the first step of this future millennium plan can be completed quickly, with high quality and quantity.
It took Zhang Wenliang about ten hours to get a general understanding. It seemed that the progress here was very good. Finally, the group returned to the conference room, where the heads of each department would give a general report on the progress and prospects. Of course, you should also mention what support is needed and so on. Space construction requires so many things that even some things are incomprehensible for the first time you hear them. For example, some people like to place a pot of soil in an environment surrounded by steel. How to ensure the best condition of workers is also one of the conditions that must be considered in space requirements.
"Dong dong..." Chen Feng walked into the conference room with steady steps, followed by the heads of various departments. There are more than 30 people, including men, women, old and young; these people are responsible for various departments. A plan to envision cosmic scenes beyond the solar system, involving nearly every aspect of the empire's scientific branches. From materials, to energy, from electric field influence to magnetic field control, from dynamics to quantum mechanics (such as microscopic force analysis, etc.), it also includes communications, production control, scientific research and development, analysis and testing, etc., it can be said that existing In the field of science and technology, most branches can be found here, and it is the most elite branch.
Zhang Wenliang and the princes and heirs of the empire were in this conference room quietly listening to what should be said to be one of the top scientific research projects on Venus today.
The reports are detailed and even a little complicated, and professional words that are unfamiliar to Zhang Wenliang often pop up, such as the issue of fixed stress saturation that Chen Feng is currently reporting on.
"The so-called fixed force saturation means that a fixed acceleration device is used to provide thrust to a moving object. There is a limit. For example, if we push an object with our hands, if the speed of the object is zero, that is, it is stationary, then All our forces can act on this object. If the object is moving, there are two situations, one is low. If the object moves at a high speed, our reaction speed is enough to offset such movement, so the force effect is still relatively perfect; but if the object is too fast, then we have to use a lot of additional force to accelerate ourselves before acting to the object. Then, relative to the target, a lot of force is wasted
And there is a final situation, that is, the object is so fast that we cannot catch up, so no matter how strong the force is, it will not have any effect.
This is not an exception, but a common phenomenon; and now we are encountering the same problem in simulation. It will appear when the speed is close to one hundredth the speed of light. The main reason is that the current electromagnetic guide rail technology also has a limit, which is the conversion of electric power into a magnetic field, the time and reaction sensitivity of the interaction between the magnetic fields, etc.
According to our calculations, if the energy is converted 100%, that is, under ideal conditions, if the satellite design weight is 200 kilograms, the final exit speed can reach 0.15 times the speed of light. Of course, this refers to an ideal situation.
However, there are losses in the transmission and conversion of electricity, and the superposition of magnetic fields and electric fields causes interference. Ultra-long distance control, etc., will also occupy some power lines. Taking this into consideration, the effective utilization rate of electricity is only 80% under comprehensive circumstances. In addition, the design of the guide rail is already very precise, and it is impossible to increase energy by adding wires or other methods. The increase in wires will inevitably lead to an increase in the influence of the electric field, and in turn, such an electric field will even inhibit the performance of the magnetic field.
Not only these, but also the fixed stress saturation condition just mentioned. Relatively speaking, the guide rail should be regarded as a fixed object. The accelerating detector is an object whose speed is increasing. at low speed. Generally, under the condition of ten times the speed of sound, the complete conversion of electromagnetic force and thrust can basically be achieved; but when the speed exceeds a hundred times the speed of sound, there will be a scene of excess thrust, and part of the magnetic field is being converted into power. The aircraft has already left its original position. This results in part of the energy being wasted.
And when the speed reaches one percent of the speed of light. This phenomenon is very obvious. At this time, 5% of the energy is wasted.
After one percent of the speed of light, the speed increases by one percent of the speed of light. There will be 5% energy remaining. And this is not the worst thing. When the speed reaches 5% of the speed of light, because the speed is too fast, the force has no time to take effect, and the detector has already flown out of the area of effect. Therefore, using rail acceleration, we can only allow the aircraft to have about 5% of the speed of light in the end. That is a speed of about 20,000 kilometers per second. The rest needs to be accelerated by light pressure drive. Driven by light pressure, it can theoretically accelerate infinitely until it is close to the speed of light. Of course, there are some problems that need to be solved if the optical pressure driver is good”
"Yeah." Zhang Wenliang frowned after listening to this theory. This little theory brought the first test to the confident new emperor. I originally wanted to take this as my next great career, but found that nature has secrets that humans can never fully explore. However, people who are now approaching 50 years old will certainly not be defeated just now.
Zhang Wenliang was holding the document and thinking quietly. As an emperor, when considering problems, he should not only consider immediate interests, but also long-term interests; not only should he consider scientific development issues, but also consider People’s confidence and knowledge, etc. Otherwise, Earth's past may explode again on Venus. That kind of hopeless lifelessness makes Zhang Wenliang a little frightened when he thinks about it now - in that lifeless society, hidden is a kind of anger that has nowhere to vent and gradually accumulates! Once it breaks out, it will hurt others and yourself! It may even plunge the earth back into political chaos and separatism.
Now, the rapid development of Venus puts Zhang Wenliang under great pressure. Just like a high-speed train, tracks must be continuously laid in front so that the train can accelerate; and once the track in front disappears, this A train moving at high speed can only cause disaster! And similarly, this principle also applies to Venus now.
In order to stimulate the economy and build infrastructure, the team led by Zhang Jingyuan amplified people's desire to the extreme under the restraint and guidance of morality. People are eager for high speed, eager to develop, and eager to go out! This kind of power from the whole society is so huge. While it promotes the continuous progress of society, it also puts huge pressure on the ruling class! This force is so huge that it cannot be stopped or even guided; it can only keep moving forward!
But now Venus and the solar system can no longer meet the ambitions of this society, so there is only one way: keep moving forward! Get out of the solar system! Let limited ambitions be released into the infinite universe. Only in this way will not only not harm Venus itself, but also accelerate the development of society.
For a long time, Zhang Wenliang had to put down the documents and stop thinking. Of course, you can't just solve problems that scientists can't solve. But of course we can't just leave in despair: "Going out is our only way out. Even in difficulties, we must go on firmly. Mr. Chen, if you need anything, just tell me directly. I believe there is nothing that can stop you." The progress of the empire. In addition, no matter what, we need to complete the construction as soon as possible. We need this to expand the people's horizons; we have been delayed on the ground for too long." (To be continued, please search, the novel will be better and updated faster. !
