Soon Jin Xiaoqiang completed the 'invention' of the lock-up clutch, which is the most critical to this transmission. However, the verification process will have to wait until he has participated in the Shanghai Auto Show before he can conduct large-scale experiments.

And when Peter Reicher and his team saw the drawings of the new engine designed by Jin Xiaoqiang, the explanation of the principles, and the new transmission, Peter had to admire Jin Xiaoqiang's genius.[]

You must know that now, let alone developing a new engine, even asking an engineer to make several successful changes on an engine requires a lot of creativity.

These are often not accomplished by one project alone. It may take a team of engineers to conduct several months of research before they can come up with a certain plan. But geniuses are geniuses. The reason why they are called geniuses is because they

Do you have the ability to complete a project by yourself without working as a team? Jin Xiaoqiang is exactly such a genius.

Peter looked at the design drawings and theories of this engine and sighed repeatedly.

"Young general, can you really guarantee that this engine can achieve a compression ratio of 14:1?"

"Well, this is just my theoretical inference so far. Whether it is feasible or not depends on experimental testing and demonstration, but I believe it should not be a big problem."

Jin Xiaoqiang said to Peter modestly. After listening to Jin Xiaoqiang's words, Peter's blue eyes kept moving, not because he was having any hidden agenda, but because he was excited in his heart.

What is the concept that the air compression ratio can reach 14:1? Or is it under the condition that a turbocharger is not used? Then isn't this a killer?

If this engine was matched with a turbine, would it be okay?

But he didn't know that Jin Xiaoqiang had never thought about adding a turbine to this engine. The reason for not adding a turbine was also very simple, that is, the engine was too big.

Precisely because he changed the length and path of the engine's exhaust pipe, this engine is much larger than other 4-cylinder engines. This problem also existed in the original Mazda.

Even because the nose of the engine was too large, they had to reduce the path of the engine exhaust pipe on the Mazda 3 that was first launched, and used the original 4-1 path, so that the nose could be forced

It was installed in the chassis cover of the Mazda 3, but then their compression ratio was reduced to 13:1.

The K-series model designed by Peter is indeed good, but it seems that the front of the car is not particularly large. I wonder if it will be able to accommodate the head of this engine!

However, Peter did not consider this issue at all. What he is thinking now is that if the appearance of the K-series model he designed is coupled with the engine designed by Jin Xiaoqiang, then this car will definitely become a long-lasting car in the future.

Famous luxury car, when the time comes, Peter Reicher's name will definitely be resounding throughout Europe again.

He would like to see when the time comes, which other media dares to say that his choice to come to Huayang Dynamics was a fool's decision?

You must know that when he resigned from Volkswagen and came to Huayang Dynamics, he was criticized by many European media. Although Huayang Dynamics is relatively well-known in the industry, after all, it cannot be compared with world-renowned manufacturers like Volkswagen.

When it comes to Volkswagen, even companies like Hyundai and Kia cannot compare to them.

What the media said at that time was very unpleasant to hear, and Peter was holding his breath in his heart!

Now with this artifact-level engine designed by Jin Xiaoqiang for his K-series, Peter believes that he will soon be able to return to the altar of European cars.

Jin Xiaoqiang came to Peter, not only to show him the engine drawings, but he also had other things to talk to Peter. You must know that this time he plans to transfer all Chuangchi Blue Sky Technology over. This Chuangchi Blue Sky Technology

Not only the engine and transmission, but also the car's body and chassis!

"Peter, I think the appearance of the car you designed is impeccable, but can we put some effort into the body?"

"Junior, what are you referring to?"

Peter stared at his big blue eyes and asked Jin Xiaoqiang.

"It's like this, Peter, you also know that the current popular trend in automobiles is to focus on energy saving and emission reduction. You have also seen the design of my engine, which is based on this concept. So, can our body also be used?

How about doing something about this?"

Jin Xiaoqiang mentioned it very implicitly.

"Well, I understand, you mean to reduce the weight of the car body, right?"

Peter is also a master of car design. With Jin Xiaoqiang’s words, he immediately understood what Jin Xiaoqiang meant.

"Yes, there is no problem with our body design at present. The only problem is weight reduction. You know the strength of our Huayang Special Steel, and aluminum alloy materials have also begun to be used on a large scale in the body.

I have applied this model of yours, I think we should try it too?"

"Haha, young general, even if you don't tell me, I'm still thinking about this issue. Look, this is the schematic diagram I drew. I plan to use a cage design on the body. Look at the front frame here, and

For the frame-type subframe, I plan to use high-strength steel, so that a cage-type high-strength frame will be formed in the cockpit to protect the safety of the driver, and I will also install it on the front frame.

A three-layer collapsible structure, so that when the car collides, the engine will automatically sink and will not cause danger to the cockpit..."

As soon as this issue was mentioned, Peter started talking non-stop. He took out a design drawing and showed it to Jin Xiaoqiang. These drawings were all about the frame structure of the car body. In different parts, they all used

Graphics of different colors are used to mark where different materials should be used, etc.

"Well, not bad, not bad."

Jin Xiaoqiang looked at the drawings and listened to Peter's explanation. He was very satisfied with Peter's consideration. Originally, he thought Peter had not thought of this, but now it seems that he is completely overthinking. After all, he is also a world-class design master.

, how could he not have thought of the problem he was considering.

"In this way, I can guarantee that the rigidity of this car will be 30% higher than before, but the weight of the car body will be reduced by 10%. This way, we can ensure the safety of the car body.

At the same time, it can also reduce the fuel consumption caused by the car itself.”

Peter's answer made Jin Xiaoqiang feel extremely satisfied. He couldn't be more satisfied.

"Well, I think it looks good, so let's design it like this! Peter, I'm going to Shanghai in a few days to attend the Shanghai Auto Show, so I have to leave the research and development plan for this K series to you."

After listening to Peter's explanation, Jin Xiaoqiang nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Peter.

"Don't worry! Leave the young general to me. To be honest, I can't wait to see what the engine you designed will look like after it is produced. Can it be able to achieve fourteen

A better compression ratio than one!”

Peter said to Jin Xiaoqiang with a smile.

"Haha, don't worry! There will definitely be no problem. Even if you can't do it, it won't be that bad."

Jin Xiaoqiang is very confident about this. After all, these are the results of hard work by Mazda engineers.

"By the way, the rest of the chassis design of Xiaojiang?"

Peter looked at Jin Xiaoqiang with some embarrassment and asked. He is a master of car appearance design, but in terms of chassis, this is really not his strong point. However, Jin Xiaoqiang is an all-around genius.

You must know that the Yidong chassis he designed is still talked about by many consumers even in Europe. Therefore, in Peter's opinion, the chassis of this car can only be handed over to Jin Xiaoqiang.

Feel relieved.

"Just wait until I come back from Shanghai to design this. Do you think it's good or not?"

Jin Xiaoqiang said to Peter with a smile. To be honest, he wanted to design them all in one go, but time really did not allow for it.

"Well, okay then! I'll wait until you come back from Shanghai."

Peter nodded and said to Jin Xiaoqiang.

As soon as Jin Xiaoqiang walked out of Peter's laboratory, he was called away by Binxinwei. Since joining Huayang Power, Binxinwei has become the backbone of the Lithium Battery Research Institute.

And he soon led a group of apprentices and other engineers to develop the cathode material for lithium batteries, and it didn't take long for him to become the director of the Huayang Power Battery Research Institute.

Now he is leading the personnel of the Lithium Battery Research Institute to attack the negative electrode materials of lithium batteries.

In fact, Jin Xiaoqiang is also very concerned about the progress of lithium battery research and development. After all, this project is related to the development of their future hybrid vehicle project.

"How's it going, Engineer Bin, how is your lithium battery research and development going?"

After coming out of Peter's laboratory building, he happened to bump into Binxin WeChat who was passing by. Jin Xiaoqiang asked him casually, but unexpectedly he was pulled back to their laboratory building by Binxin with a smile.

Let’s see the results.

"Haha, Mr. Jin, you came at the right time. Look, we have finished the positive electrode part of the lithium battery. This one uses lithium cobalt oxide as the positive electrode material, and this one uses lithium manganate as the positive electrode material.

Yes, the performance of these two materials is pretty good at present..."

Binxin smiled and pointed to a few materials and introduced them to Jin Xiaoqiang. Jin Xiaoqiang actually only knew a little bit about lithium batteries. He really didn't know much about batteries.

However, Binxinwei is quite satisfied with the results achieved by the team he leads so far. In terms of the current domestic scientific research environment, it is not easy to find an employer like Huayang Dynamics.

The boss is very generous and willing to invest, and he will not give random orders when it comes to experimental projects. For people like them who specialize in scientific research, this is simply something they can only meet but cannot ask for.

Jin Xiaoqiang gave him full power, and he could be said to have all the power in the laboratory, which greatly accelerated the progress of their scientific research.

You must know that although the positive electrode of the lithium battery they are currently studying is not a big problem in the scope of world lithium battery research, he is still quite satisfied with being able to achieve such a breakthrough in such a short period of time.

"Oh! What about the negative electrode material!"

Jin Xiaoqiang asked again casually.

"Well, right now we are having a headache just because of this."

Binxinwei naturally continued what Jin Xiaoqiang said.

"What? Is the material for this negative electrode difficult to make?"

Jin Xiaoqiang asked.

"Hey! In fact, it is not particularly difficult. For now, the negative electrode materials used in mainstream lithium batteries in the world are activated carbon, graphite, etc. These materials are non-toxic and low-priced, so within a certain range

It is still very popular. But these materials are also suitable for use in small lithium batteries, such as mobile phone batteries, etc. But if we are going to make electric vehicles, then other batteries will need to be larger, but in this case, graphite will

Materials seem to be insufficient. We are also looking for new and excellent materials. We have tried many other materials to make negative electrode materials for large-scale lithium batteries, such as iron alloys, tin composite oxides, lithium transition metal nitrides, etc.

Wait, it seems that the results are not ideal so far."

Binxin shook his head slightly, and then explained to Jin Xiaoqiang that he was obviously not very satisfied with the current situation.

"The most suitable material we have tried so far is lithium titanium composite oxide, but the cost of this material is too high and is not suitable for large-scale promotion."

Binxin continued on Weibo, saying that this was good news for Jin Xiaoqiang, but when he heard about the high cost, he also frowned.

"Engineer Bin, didn't you say earlier that you had tried to use silicon oxide as the material for the negative electrode before? Why didn't you continue your research?"

Jin Xiaoqiang suddenly remembered something Bin Xinwei had said to him, so he asked him.

"Well, theoretically speaking, silicon oxide is indeed a very suitable material for the negative electrode material of lithium batteries. You must know that from a purely theoretical point of view, the constant flow capacity of silicon in li22si5 can reach 4200 mA.

per gram, this is a very powerful data, but the defect of this material is also quite obvious, that is, when lithium is inserted and removed, this material will expand and deform, and the microstructure will change, thus causing lithium to be inserted.

Electrode breakage and loss are prone to occur during delithiation. We have been studying this problem, but we have not yet overcome it!"

Bin Xin frowned slightly and replied, but as soon as he finished speaking, Jin Xiaoqiang over there felt an idea flash in his mind.

Don’t you have those kind of carbon-based nanocells in your hand? Isn’t that kind of substance an artifact that can quietly change the properties of a substance? (To be continued)
