Chapter 178 You Are Indeed Worthy of Our Trust
This marks that China's aerospace technology has reached a new level.
"The ZT-9's Liquid Engine 130 liquid oxygen-kerosene engine has a takeoff thrust of 500 tons. The maximum thrust of this engine is more than four times that of the current 120-ton engine. This will be the world's largest twin-nozzle liquid oxygen-kerosene engine. In the first stage of the ZT-9, there are 12 Liquid Engine 130s, with a total takeoff thrust of more than 6,000 tons..."
Listening to the shocking data, Xu You became more and more excited.
Recalling the development history of China's aerospace industry, Xu You felt that it was not easy along the way.
In the 1970s, China's earliest carrier rocket, the Zhengtu-1, had a carrying capacity of only 300 kilograms.
Although at present, such carrying capacity is not even worth mentioning.
But this marked the beginning of China's march into space, making China the fifth space power in the world capable of independently developing and launching artificial satellites.
Today, China is moving towards the goal of a 100-ton carrier rocket. Next, it will carry out manned lunar landings, Mars exploration, and even more distant deep space exploration.
Thinking of this, Xu You felt his heart surging.
At this time, the aerospace designer ended his speech.
"Next, please let intern Xu You come forward and speak!"
Hearing this, Xu You's mood suddenly changed from excitement to nervousness.
"Is it my turn so soon?" Xu Youxin said.
Bringing his computer, Xu You came to the stage.
Xu You looked up and saw dozens of pairs of eyes staring at him from the audience.
Among them are the project's general commander, chief designer, chief engineer, and various other leaders and experts.
It can be said that everyone has a certain status in the aerospace system.
At this time, Xu You, an intern, actually introduced his scientific research results in front of these leaders and experts.
Xu You still finds it a little unbelievable.
Xu You took a deep breath and tried hard to stay calm.
"Dear leaders and experts, hello, I am intern Xu You. Next, I will introduce to you the new liquid film cooling system, regenerative cooling system, and titanium-aluminum-based alloy engine coating."
The leaders and experts in the audience did not have any prejudice against Xu You because of his special identity.
They had all heard about the incredible qualities of this young man.
Being able to produce so many new scientific research results in a very short period of time.
This is something that even the professional aerospace workers in the conference room find difficult to do.
After Xu You focused his attention on several of his scientific research achievements.
Xu You's nervousness gradually subsided.
After all, these are the results independently developed by Xu You.
Xu You's explanation didn't feel awkward at all.
Every detail is explained very well.
The leaders and experts below couldn't help but nod their heads repeatedly as they listened.
Xu You’s PPT was relatively concise, and most of the minor content was omitted by Xu You.
I have only picked out the most important information and shared it with you.
Even so, because Xu You had to talk about three scientific research results, it still took up a lot of time.
More than half an hour later, Xu You finally finished his lecture, bowed deeply to the audience, and returned to his seat.
After returning to his seat, Xu You noticed that his clothes were soaked with sweat.
It’s not because the conference room is too hot. Even with the cool air from the air conditioner, the temperature inside is only a little over 20 degrees Celsius.
However, because of his nervousness and his intense focus when explaining, Xu You's body was exhausted.
Su Yiguo nodded to Xu You, indicating that Xu You's performance today was indeed good.
Even in front of so many leaders and experts, Xu You still demonstrated his scientific research results very well, which made Su Yiguo very proud.
Su Yiguo knew that if he helped an intern like Xu You to apply for such great authority, some people would definitely think it was inappropriate.
But Xu You's performance today proved that Su Yiguo's choice at that time was not wrong.
This young man is indeed worthy of their trust.
At the end of the meeting, project commander Yang Wu walked to the front.
"After listening to everyone's speeches today, I feel that I have gained a lot. Compared with last year, ZT-9 has made a lot of progress, especially the hydraulic engine 130, which has gradually matured. The newly developed cooling system and engine coating will also play a very important role in ensuring the performance of the engine."
Hearing that his achievements were recognized by his leaders, Xu You's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
"Now, we can proceed with the full system simulation test run of the Hydraulic Engine 130. If there are no problems with the simulation results, we can officially conduct the full system test run!"
Everyone in the conference room was excited about the news.
The so-called rocket test is to fix the rocket on the rocket test bench and conduct an ignition test.
Conducting test runs before the rocket is officially launched can better detect the various parameters of the rocket and greatly improve the success rate of the rocket launch.
Of course, although the rocket test run is just an experiment, because the state of the rocket during the test run is basically the same as the state of the rocket during launch, the cost of each rocket test run is not small.
Therefore, before testing the rocket, it is best to simulate the various parameters of the rocket in advance through a simulation system.
When everything meets the standards, the rocket will be tested.
After the meeting, Su Yiguo brought Xu You to greet the leaders.
"Xu You, this is Mr. Yang, the general commander of the project, and this is Mr. Huang, the chief designer of the project."
"Hello, Mr. Yang! Hello, Mr. Huang!"
In the aerospace system, people generally just call the project's commander-in-chief, chief designer, chief engineer, etc. "Mr. X."
It’s just that Su Yiguo doesn’t like others calling him General Su. Apart from those leaders, Su Yiguo still allows many people to call him “General Engineer Su”.
"Xu You, I can't believe that an intern who just came to the aerospace system can produce so many results. If it weren't for you, our progress might not be so fast."
"Mr. Yang, thank you for your compliment. I am very proud that I can make a small contribution to the project."
"Thank you for your continued help in the subsequent simulation work. Once this part of the work is completed, you can go back to school, and don't delay the tasks at school for too long."
Although everyone was reluctant to let Xu You leave, after all, Xu You was an undergraduate student at Ji University, and they couldn't keep Xu You in the aerospace system forever.
