Diesel engine in the all-in-one machine to complete the design, but if you take it out, it is a little difficult, Yang Yuanzhao completed the design of the gasoline engine in one go, compared to the diesel engine, the gasoline engine is easier, but also his strongest aspect, simple a few days of time, to determine some design, as much as possible to reduce the dependence on the all-in-one machine, even if it is necessary to use the all-in-one machine, it is replaced by steel, rather than directly producing the finished product, now the research institute has quite a lot of personnel, as long as Yang Yuanzhao gives the direction, You can let the people below start manufacturing, by the way, the production line of trucks and cars is given a shape, and the future expansion of the northwest territory, the demand for motor vehicles, is very large.

After putting down the motor vehicle, Yang Yuanzhao himself was thinking about the aero engine. Yang Yuanzhao is not a weapon-only theory, but in this era, one step ahead of others is the difference between heaven and earth, the new army in Baotou, in terms of training, I am afraid that it is stronger than the Beiyang army, but the real sword and real gun fight, may not be comparable to the Beiyang army, the reason is that the Beiyang army is a bloody, experienced troops, such a force, really hit head-on, if Baotou does not have a large number of 75 guns and more than 108 cannons, the defeat may be the new army.

To deal with the Beiyang Army, it may be possible to use the range and caliber of artillery to bully the opponent, but against the foreign powers, the geographical advantage of the northwest is excellent, and I don't worry about the great powers killing them, but in the future, the northwest will not never leave, once it is extended to the coastline, the right thing is the huge naval and army units of the great powers, and relying only on artillery cannot completely solve the problem.

Airplanes are something that had to be developed, during World War I. The aircraft was still only a reconnaissance tool, although there was an air battle, but the intensity was not great, and by the time of World War II, the air force occupied a huge part of the army's strength. Air superiority began to really affect the tide of battle.

Compared with the two previous engines, Yang Yuanzhao still knows better, and even can make it with the help of an all-in-one machine, but the aero engine is Yang Yuanzhao's weakest, and even the least understood. Not much is even known about aviation kerosene.

The characteristics of kerosene, a certain Cheng dù, he knows, have a low ignition point. The power is good, and the kerosene machine basically adheres to this, and perhaps a part of the study of the cracked oil can find out what aviation does not have, which requires the study of chemists.

As for the engine of aviation, Yang Yuanzhao has heard of some of them, and they are all star-shaped engines on a certain distance. All of them are odd cylinders, Yang Yuanzhao thought about it for a long time, and put it aside for the time being. The star engine, which is at least 30 years later, the technology of the World War II period, and the current technology, some too far, the early aircraft. Most of them, are used by car engines. The Watt brothers invented the airplane, which was used directly. It's the engine of the car, the current airplane, and there is still some distance from the real airplane.

This can be studied as a project, with the help of the BMW motorcycle engine, a certain range of dù, can reproduce the power of the star engine of more than 7 cylinders, at least can also be guaranteed above 600 horsepower, in this era when the aircraft is still a desert, such an engine, can produce considerable energy, his power is absolutely unimaginable.

Of course, Yang Yuanzhao can even use the guò all-in-one machine to make an ultra-light aluminum alloy that can really be applied, and modify the existing engine with the help of aluminum alloy, and even the BMW 999 engine, such an engine is far more powerful than the original engine of this era in terms of thrust-to-weight ratio, and the flight speed and bomb load are also much stronger, I am afraid it will have preliminary combat capabilities.

Three aspects, completed the preliminary research, smoothed out the design, to achieve the substance, even industrial production, still need a lot of research, Yang Yuanzhao came to the newly established power room, about the task of the real room, has been assigned, the current room, a total of 37 engineers, 35 of them, recruited from Europe and the United States, for this, Yang Yuanzhao is also very helpless, China in terms of engineers and researchers, only sporadic personnel, This is the result of more than 300 years of history, and although he has invested heavily in studying abroad, it will take time to come in handy.

Knowledge represents strength, Yang Yuanzhao is very clear about the development of science and technology in the future, how rapid it will be, without a huge base, can really not give birth to a variety of cutting-edge talents, promote the entire science and technology, rapid and stable development.

Yang Yuanzhao attaches great importance to the cultivation of reserve forces, and every researcher is accompanied by a large number of assistants and apprentices. Now the research institute of these technologies, is not particularly advanced, aside from the leading material, other design aspects, at most to double the current engine technology, although the proportion is considerable, but compared with the layout of Baotou new materials and later generations, it is still a little worse, Baotou here, but also occupies an absolute advantage.

37 engineers, and 6 times the apprentices, among them, or in the engineering schools in the northwest, after 2-3 years of training, the technical students who have grown up, or some smart and knowledgeable technical workers, and even 12 students who have returned from studying abroad to study engineering, these are the future, the wings of the entire Chinese power, for the time being, they are not useful, and can only be ordered by foreign engineers.

"Mr. Yang, the prototype of the first engine has been produced, and now, it is being tested, come and take a look!" A blond-haired European said loudly.

He is the head of the gasoline engine group, and his engine is also the most mature, Yang Yuanzhao almost told him about the materials, the things used in every place, and even the simple process, no, it only took 3 days to make the first gasoline engine.

In the corner of the entire power room, an ugly-looking engine, and it is water-cooled, is roaring, gasoline is deflagrating in the engine, the pusher engine keeps turning, looking at the counter, Yang Yuanzhao asked loudly: "How much horsepower?" ”

"The extreme horsepower is over 105 horsepower, and now it's basically stable at around 97.

97, a little worse than the design, but it has basically completed the requirements of the design, in a sense, this is the first industrial product born in China that exceeds the world-class level, which is more or less, with the help of Yang Yuanzhao, the use of a lot of more high-end materials, but to be able to do this, is already good.

"How long has it been running?"

Big Nose said happily: "It's been 36 hours of operation!" ”

36 hours, and it is a full load, full power pressure training, this is a very high number in Europe and the United States, the primary engine, problems are very normal, in the past, many drivers, themselves are also a reasonable repairman, they can be in the car when there is a problem, immediately eliminate the problem, repair the car, continuous operation for 36 hours, for the car engine is already good, the most important thing is that the engine horsepower is strong, the big nose has reason to believe that this strong engine, installed on the car, the speed of the car will fly.

The key is that the current car, I'm afraid it won't look much better than the horse-drawn car, basically it is wooden, less than 10 horsepower engine, how much can be driven, in this case, close to 80 horsepower engine, a certain number of dù, already has the prototype of the modern engine, his appearance, will inevitably produce more outstanding cars.

In the end, after nearly 20 days of continuous operation, finally the engine had a small fault, such a continuous operation time, more than 480 hours, relative to later generations, the reliability of the engine, there are still great deficiencies, for the early 20th century now, it is enough, basically in the intermittent transportation, it will take a month or two to have a problem, at most train the driver, for the common problems to modify, really big problems, just replace the engine directly, This was normal in the early days of automobiles.

It looks very simple, and even some ugly engine, but it has become the second product of the third machine qì factory, under the joint efforts of Yang Yuanzhao and engineers, after the engine was finalized, the final horsepower was determined at 105 horsepower, and the power was actually yàn room, and began to fine-tune and improve according to this engine, the engine named Dongfang No. 1 became a very long sequence, and in the following years, a total of more than a dozen improved models were born, and the final horsepower has reached 185 horsepower, That's a long time later.

This horsepower is almost close to the BMW engine, no matter what, the BMW engine is just a motorcycle engine, the motorcycle engine is a big fixation, it is impossible to make a large cylinder, each cylinder is very small, the total displacement is only 999 ml, and, even compared with the engine, the difference is very huge, the goal of the current power room, is to gradually expand, with the help of advanced concepts, there are steel materials that are closer than this era, Bigger and stronger engines.

The development of the gasoline engine was completed, and the shape was finalized, and soon it was placed in industrial production, and the gasoline engine was installed on different cars, and the motor vehicle appeared in Baotou for the first time. (To be continued) R655
