Chapter 498: Magical Change to Straight 9, Torch Group’s new business (please ask for a monthly ticket...)
Back to Chang Haonan.
Of course there is no need for him to wait until the paper is published before taking any action.
Within two days after the manuscript was submitted, a new content was added to the official website of Torch Group and the business list for telephone consultation.
For users who lack computing resources, have limited technical strength, do not have permission to use the "professional enhanced version" TORCH Multiphysics software, or are simply too lazy to do it themselves, Torch Group can provide a variety of customized numerical calculation solutions.
In other words, the customer provides the 3D model and other study parameters, and we calculate the results.
For this purpose, Chang Haonan also set up a separate business department.
The staff...
Of course they were recruited directly from Beijing Hang University.
Anyway, Tang Lintian just had to offer him up now. It was just a matter of a few people, so there was no way they would have any objections.
Moreover, in the 1990s, colleges and universities not only ignored teachers' side jobs, but also encouraged them...
So, Liu Hongbo was sold to Chang Haonan by Tang Lintian without his knowledge. And naturally he became the manager of this "Numerical Computing Business Department".
Fortunately, Professor Liu's mentality was okay, and he quickly adapted to the new part-time job, completing his role from Chang Haonan's quasi-mentor to Chang Haonan's senior brother to Chang Haonan's assistant, and finally to Chang Haonan's subordinate. Metamorphosis.
Of course, induction training for new employees still needs to be done.
At this time, Chang Haonan was in the computer room, introducing Liu Hongbo to matters needing attention in related businesses.
Generally speaking, Liu Hongbo and Fang Zhen, who will graduate in the next year, can basically handle most tasks that are not too troublesome.
If that doesn't work, you can also ask Chang Haonan himself to support you.
So the technical problem is not big.
It’s mainly about business.
According to Liu Hongbo's own statement, he is a person who does not love money, so he does not have any business or industry outside.
However, in the version described by Du Yishan, he actually did not dare to try again because he lost all his three previous entrepreneurial ventures.
No matter which version is true, it is certain that Professor Liu is not very good at business.
"Master...Mr. Chang, why are our businesses divided into engineering calculations and scientific research calculations? Aren't they both the same?"
As expected, in Chang Haonan, After introducing the business model and philosophy of the Numerical Computing Business Department, Liu Hongbo asked with confusion.
"Is this..."
After Chang Haonan confirmed that there was no one around, he explained to Liu Hongbo in a low voice:
"Engineering calculations are based on the conditions and requirements given by the customer until the results are satisfactory. Of course, each round of calculations requires additional money. But in short, we must be 100% responsible for the calculation results. "
"As for this scientific calculation... no matter what conditions the user gives, no matter what the results are, the sale is done in one go. Of course, it is clearly stipulated in the contract. , there is no guarantee that the conclusion is consistent with the actual situation..."
"Huh?"
Liu Hongbo was shocked after hearing this explanation:
"Then isn't this... prone to problems?"
"What if someone uses our calculation results to do a project..."
Chang Haonan lightly knocked on the table next to him:
“That’s why it’s called scientific research calculation!”
Liu Hongbo suddenly realized.
"So it's for water..."
Halfway through the words, Chang Haonan nodded and did not continue.
We are all scientific research dogs, and there will inevitably be times when we need to write a paper.
In order to ensure the validity of the results in engineering calculations, the cost of a calculation example ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of millions. How can ordinary research groups waste so much money.
What's more, most research does not require such exaggerated accuracy and reliability. It's just that Chang Haonan has always been working on projects that are important to the country, and there is no room for sloppiness.
In most cases, problems are solved by numerical calculations with average accuracy, coupled with experiments and experience.
“The scientific research calculation part can be left to newcomers or interns to practice in the future, but the engineering calculations must be done by experienced personnel. If you have any technical questions, you can ask me. . ”
“Of course, engineering calculations must face a variety of projects. Now we are short of manpower and cannot take on all projects. We can do the most important ones first. If you are not sure about this, You can also ask me.”
Although Chang Haonan seems to have taken care of a lot of things for himself, in fact, there are not many things that really require his personal decision-making.
"Okay, I understand."
Liu Hongbo nodded: "I will definitely lead the numerical calculation business department!"
This new position requires working under his junior brother, so at the beginning , he actually didn’t want to come.
But I couldn’t help it, I gave it too much, and it tasted really good in the end.
Originally, Liu Hongbo’s intention was just to show his attitude.
After joining the job, why don't you give it a few days to get used to it?
As a result, Chang Haonan was directly on top:
"That's just right. This morning, the company just took over a numerical calculation business. The one over in Bingcheng was to be used for helicopters. Design new rotor and fuselage structures..."
"Helicopter..."
Liu Hongbo's expression froze:
"I've never done it before..."
"It's all about the same thing, let's get some exercise...I read the content in the morning. The main content is a numerical simulation of the near-ground flow field of a rotor. There is a numerical simulation of the flow field of the rotor/fuselage combination, which is not too difficult.”
While talking, the two of them had returned to Chang Haonan’s office in tandem.
The latter picked up a file bag with a confidentiality stamp from the table:
“In recent years, the Navy and the Air Force have obtained a lot of new equipment. As a result, the Army only has new guns. The remaining recruits will definitely not be able to sit still.”
"Now the only helicopter that our country can barely produce is the Z-9, so we want to develop a general-purpose armed helicopter on this basis, which can carry people and fight, and can also be used to earn foreign exchange through exports."
< br>"Oh...if the existing model is improved, it should be okay..."
After hearing the specific project arrangements, Liu Hongbo breathed a sigh of relief and took out a piece of information from the portfolio.
He quickly turned to the design part.
An aircraft that looks little different from an ordinary Z-9.
There is only an aiming device installed on the upper left side of the nose, and a set of beams on both sides of the fuselage.
“It doesn’t look like an armed helicopter?”
Liu Hongbo commented hesitantly.
“This is the original plan that Bingcheng came up with before, but the users were not satisfied with the performance, so the 602 Institute wanted to do it without stopping and update the entire aircraft. Substantial changes. "
"More substantial changes... from UH1 to AH1, or from Mi 8 to Mi 24? "
Liu Hongbo suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
Changing a general-purpose helicopter into a special-purpose armed helicopter is an improvement, but in fact it is not much different from designing a new aircraft.
“The action may not be that fast. After all, special armed helicopters have very high requirements for mobility and mounting capabilities. We still lack some accumulation in this regard.”
Chang Haonan shook his head, He didn't know much about the situation on the Army Aviation side, so he could only explain this:
"For more specific information, Bingcheng will send someone to connect with you in two days."
< br>
"But in short, this time, they are probably going to change the dolphin so that even the French will not recognize it..."
