Chapter 166: The Science of High Temperature Resistant Coating
It was not until 11 o'clock that Hu Shucheng finally woke up.
"Huh~ I finally recovered. Hey? Xu You, when did you get up ?"
Hu Shucheng couldn't help being surprised to see Xu You already reading at the desk.
"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't disturb you. I just finished reading two books."
There is also a library in the launch center, which contains many professional books on aerospace.
Xu You also borrowed a lot of books, and when he had nothing to do, he would cram on various aerospace knowledge in his dormitory.
"No...Xu You, aren't you sleepy after staying up all night?"
Hu Shucheng thinks that his physical fitness is relatively good.
Even if you just stayed up all night, as long as you have a good sleep, there will be no impact on your body.
"Maybe I don't sleep enough. When I was in the second year of high school, I often went to bed at 2 a.m. and got up at 6 a.m. the next day."
"Okay, I didn't expect you were such a night owl before. But when we were training with the provincial team, you didn't stay up late either?"
"Well, I changed my habit later."
After washing up, Hu Shucheng went to the cafeteria with Xu You to have brunch.
Originally, the two of them were going to continue their internship visit today.
But Fu Cheng and Hu Shucheng said that they did a good job yesterday, and the group might have more tasks recently, so they could go to the office to be on duty when they have nothing to do.
Xu You and Hu Shucheng were both very happy about this. After all, this would bring them closer to real aerospace work.
When they arrived at the office, the teacher from yesterday started communicating with Xu You.
"Xu You, I was so busy yesterday that I didn't have time to talk to you properly. I didn't want to trouble you, but the task is indeed a bit urgent, and you are more familiar with these things. Thank you for your hard work."
"Teacher, you are so kind. I am so glad that I can help you in a small way."
Xu You still remained polite. Although this teacher was much more friendly, he still had to be careful with his words.
After listening to the conversation, Xu You knew that the teacher was called Shen Ye, and he was a professor at Jihang College of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
Xu You’s opportunity to come here for internship was also related to Shen Ye’s recommendation.
Of course, Shen Ye’s face is not that big. What is more important is Xu You’s own achievements.
Everyone in the entire scientific research circle basically knows how outstanding Xu You’s scientific research results are in the past year.
"If you're willing to do more work, you can stay in this office longer. But the work here is quite tiring, and when we get busy, sometimes we don't distinguish between day and night."
After working overtime yesterday, Xu You was also clear about the situation.
Xu You is not afraid of being tired, but staying up late is indeed not good.
However, Xu You didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he agreed decisively.
"Teacher, I am not afraid of being tired. It doesn't matter if I am a little tired because I have the opportunity to participate in such work."
Fortunately, Xu You is in good physical condition now and is not affected by staying up late the day before.
On the other hand, those doctors had dark circles under their eyes, perhaps because of staying up late for a long time, and they looked dazed.
This reminded Xu You of Zhao Weijia's state during his last year of doctoral studies.
At this time, someone came into the office.
Xu You also knew the person who came. He was the engineer Fan Liangzhong who had explained the ZT-9 model to them in the exhibition room that day.
"Professor Shen, have you eaten?"
"I've eaten. Engineer Fan, do you have another mission?"
"It's like this, Professor Shen. There was nothing wrong with yesterday's data. It's just that Chief Engineer Su feels that the coating's resistance to high-temperature oxidation can be a little better, and the coating thickness can also be a little thinner."
"Understood, Engineer Fan, we will continue to improve the plan."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Professor Shen."
Although Fan Liangzhong put it more tactfully.
But Shen Ye could also hear that Su Yiguo was still not satisfied with the results of yesterday's software simulation.
If Su Yiguo was present, his attitude would definitely not be as polite as Fan Liangzhong's.
Although he wouldn't get angry with Shen Ye, he would definitely speak more forcefully.
There is no way. An engineer of Su Yiguo's level is not someone that Shen Ye, an ordinary Jihang professor, can compare to.
Xu You and Hu Shucheng also realized that things were not as easy as Fan Liangzhong said, and they might have to fight for a few more days.
"Teacher, we worked almost all night yesterday and there was no problem with the data we produced. Why is Chief Engineer Su still not satisfied?" Fu Cheng complained.
Several other doctors also had similar attitudes.
They certainly wouldn't dare to confront Su Yiguo face to face.
But it doesn’t matter if you complain a few words behind someone’s back.
"Please understand that Chief Engineer Su's mission is different from ours. When you want to build a rocket well, you need to be picky. Come on, let's have a meeting and discuss the next plan."
Since Su Yiguo was not satisfied with the results of the simulation, he certainly could not simulate it again according to last night's plan.
Yesterday, because the task was urgent, Xu You and Hu Shucheng did not understand some details of the experiment very clearly.
After Shen Ye's detailed explanation today, they finally learned more information.
The work of Shen Ye's group this time is mainly to study the high-temperature oxidation resistant coating on the surface of titanium alloy.
Titanium alloys have important application value in key components such as aviation and aerospace engines.
However, the performance of titanium alloy is not very stable under high temperature conditions.
Therefore, a high temperature resistant coating needs to be prepared on its surface.
This coating may seem simple, but there is a lot of knowledge involved.
It must be resistant to both high temperatures and oxidation.
The thickness should also be appropriate, not too thin or too thick.
Try to make the surface performance of titanium alloy materials better without changing the overall performance of titanium alloy materials.
The most commonly used coating now is nickel-based high-temperature coating.
This is also the type of coating used in the simulation last night.
"In this way, we can expand the data range of nickel-based high-temperature coatings and add a few more dimensions. We don't have to be as anxious this time as we were last time. If the results don't satisfy the leaders, there's no point in working faster."
After listening to Shen Ye's opinions, no one expressed any problem. After everyone assigned the tasks, they each went back to work on the tasks at hand.
In fact, Xu You had some different ideas in his mind, but he didn't say anything in front of Shen Ye.
While carrying out the simulation work at hand, Xu You entered into a deep learning state.
"Is there a possibility that it is not a problem with the data range and dimension, but... a problem with the nickel-based high-temperature coating itself?" Xu You pondered.
