Rebirth: The Overlord Of The Aviation Industry Started From Building A Large Aircraft

Is the 026.3 billion scientific research funding a little less?

Even if he was in a coma, Zhang Deyuan did not escape being beaten again.

This little episode at the door of the company was quickly forgotten.

Professor Sun Yuanwei couldn't wait to rush to the R&D laboratory of Longteng Aviation.

After reading the overall design plan and specific parameters of the aircraft engine of medium and large passenger aircraft, just like He Lao's reaction at the beginning, Professor Sun Yuanwei was also stunned and shocked in his heart!

"Mr. Lu, if you had been born ten years earlier, the level of our Dragon Kingdom's aviation industry would never have been what it is now."

Professor Sun Yuanwei exclaimed loudly.

Quite high praise for Lu Ze.

Even though the civil and military aircraft engines are very different, he still got a lot of inspiration from this overall design plan.

"Professor Sun, you have passed the award."

Lu Ze said with a smile.

"What do you think about the production of this aero engine?"

"The overall design scheme and manufacturing technology have been quite perfect, and what is lacking is the forging process and processing level of the production line equipment and the corresponding raw materials..." Lu Ze said while thinking, "In fact, the production line is good to say, I can buy it in overseas channels, but the price will be slightly more expensive, mainly because of the forging process and processing level of raw materials, in this regard, our domestic industrial base is too poor..."

"Yes, material technology is an important factor hindering the development of domestic aircraft engines."

Professor Sun Yuanwei nodded lightly, and sighed with emotion in the same embarrassment.

Most parts of the aero engine must work in a state of high temperature and high pressure, especially the combustion chamber, and the temperature is as high as 1800-2000 degrees Celsius when working, which requires that the forging material must be absolutely resistant to high temperature and have quite reliable stability, otherwise once the hot melt deformation, it will be completely finished.

The second is the blades of the compressor, which are subjected to huge centrifugal forces when the space engine is working, so it is necessary to find a stable balance between extreme thinness and strength.

Combustion chambers, fans, blades, mechanical systems, turbine manufacturing and many other aspects require a fairly high level of forging technology and material processing, and even involve extremely demanding welding technology.

It is precisely because of the materials, forging process, processing and production, design and technical level that the aero engine will be known as the crown jewel of modern industry.

"I am ready to try to contact several domestic enterprises that make titanium alloy, titanium aluminum alloy and high-temperature PST aluminum titanium single crystal to see if their forging process can meet the needs of aero-engine raw materials, if not... It can only choose to acquire the same type of enterprises and then transform, no matter what, Longteng Aviation will let domestic aircraft engines come out as soon as possible. ”

"There is a long way to go!"

After listening to Lu Ze's words, Professor Sun Yuanwei was also quite helpless, and could only sigh softly, "This is Mr. Lu, in view of the research and development strength of your Longteng Aviation Industry Company, the military wants to entrust you to design and develop and manufacture a new armed helicopter, it is best to use domestic turboshaft aircraft engines, and the scientific research funds that can be pre-approved in the early stage are 300 million, what do you think?" ”

Lu Ze frowned slightly.

"Professor Sun, Longteng Aviation is a commercial company, in business, as long as there is money to earn, of course we are willing to accept the commission of the military, but is 300 million scientific research funds a little too little?" You are an expert in the field of aero engines, and you should know how much it costs to develop a new model? Not to mention the use of domestic turboshaft aero engines! ”

In fact, for Lu Ze, it is not difficult to pull a production line that can produce both turbofan aero engines for civil airliners and turboshaft aero engines, which are sold in the system mall anyway.

And the price is not much more expensive than a single turbofan aero-engine line.

However, as far as the military's requirements are concerned, 300 million scientific research funds are indeed less.

Professor Sun Yuanwei's face immediately showed a look of shame.

Letting a scientist like him talk about business is really not a good choice.

But the Air Force also has no way, they must first determine that Longteng Aviation has the strength to develop aircraft engines before placing an order.

"Advance scientific research funding ... The maximum can be 500 million, Mr. Lu..." Professor Sun Yuanwei said with some embarrassment: "The military is ready to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with your Longteng Airlines... It's a step-by-step process, and I hope you understand..."

Lu Ze narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and quickly guessed what was going on.

The intention of the military is to most likely want Longteng to participate in the research and development of military turbofan aircraft engines, or directly develop a military aircraft engine for them, which is used to change the equipment of the J-10, and may even be a pre-research project of the J-20.

It's just that there are still doubts about whether Longteng Aviation can independently develop and produce aircraft engines, and it is simply obvious that Lu Ze will make a new armed helicopter to test the waters, so Professor Sun Yuanwei will swallow and say that the military is ready to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with Longteng Aviation.

Thinking of this, Lu Ze readily agreed.

"Okay, I promised, 500 million is 500 million!"

"Great, Mr. Lu, you really understand the righteousness..."

Professor Sun Yuanwei shouted excitedly, his expression full of excitement.

Lu Ze pouted in his heart without hesitation, he is a businessman, and he knows that righteousness will only be based on making money.

The profit margins of military projects are usually not too high.

If Longteng Aviation is really allowed to directly develop a turbofan aircraft engine for J-10 or J-20, it will not make any money, first, the cost is too high, it is impossible to equip in large quantities, and second, export restrictions, the state cannot allow him to sell such aircraft engines abroad at will.

Helicopters are different, develop a new armed helicopter, remove weapons and equipment, and then cut some configurations, you can sell it as a civilian helicopter.

Why not!
