Chapter 474 "Taihang" Engine Design Review Meeting (10,000 per day)
Chang Haonan, who is far away in China, certainly has no idea that his colleagues at MIT have gone further and further down the wrong path due to a moment of negligence and many coincidences.
In fact, he originally thought that the other party would soon realize that something was wrong.
I can only say that it is still overestimated after all.
For Chang Haonan, after helping Liu Yongquan get the film cooling test on track and obtaining some of the most basic data, the overall design plan of the turbofan 10 should be finalized.
Although the previous plan was to design and manufacture two legs to walk at the same time, there was still a question of whether to step the left foot first or the right foot first.
Mr. Qian once summed up a very important core point of view in "Systems Engineering Theory". To make any technical product, we must start from the existing conditions. We do not need to insist on the advancement of individual technologies, but we must ensure the rationality of the overall design. .
Although Chang Haonan has taken over the Turbofan 10 project for several months and the progress has been progressing by leaps and bounds, strictly speaking, most of his previous work still belongs to the category of "pre-research".
If the overall technical route is not determined, the research and development work of all subsystems will not be carried out.
So, this is definitely the top priority of the entire project.
It is also a process that he hopes to expose China's aerospace development researchers to.
In addition, such a big matter cannot be decided by Chang Haonan alone, or by gathering together a few core members of the 606 Institute like the first time.
Although allowing a young man to serve as the chief designer of a key aircraft engine model already reflects the organization's high degree of recognition and trust in him, trust is trust, and things that should be done according to the rules cannot be omitted.
To officially transfer from pre-research to model development, the design review meeting must still be held.
Of course, with Chang Haonan's current reputation in the aviation industry system and even the entire military industry system, there will definitely be no shortage of small “privileges”.
For example, under normal circumstances, the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense and the General Armament Department decide how, where and when the review meeting will be held. Even in order to save time and resources, some non-key models are packaged according to categories. Focus on the review again.
But for Chang Haonan, he only needs to prepare relevant information and call Ding Gaoheng to decide these details by himself.
Of course, the comrades from the general offices of the two ministries and commissions are responsible for the organization of the conference, so he does not need to worry about it.
The main research and development units of turbofan 10 are 606 Research Institute and 410 Factory. This meeting was naturally held in Shengjing.
However, due to Chang Haonan's request, in addition to the experts and leaders who participated in the review, as well as the main responsible comrades of the turbofan 10 research and development team, there were also many comrades involved in the research and development.
As a result, the original planned venue, namely 606 conference halls, seems a bit stretched.
Finally, under the personal coordination of Cao Gangchun, the director of the General Armament Department, they borrowed the opportunity to use the official auditorium of the Shengjing Military Region.
Old building, but the advantage is that the place is large enough.
More importantly, it is very close to the government guest house of the Shengjing Military Region—
A design review of this scale will definitely not be completed in one day. Local researchers can go home to their dormitories, but participants from other places must find accommodation.
The night before, Chang Haonan brought relevant design materials and arrived at the venue in his Jetta King.
As a large military region at the corps level, the Shengjing Military Region garrison is an important military area that no one can enter.
Even if Chang Haonan and others come from military industrial units that are closely related to the army, they are still non-military local personnel.
Hence, I waited at the door for a while and then I saw a camouflage-painted Mitsubishi off-road vehicle driving out of the courtyard. A lieutenant colonel with the rank of 20,000 men got out of the car.
The latter spoke a few words to the sentry, and then motioned to the convoy outside to follow.
The group of people finally entered the military compound safely.
“I think the security of our military industrial units must be upgraded according to this standard in the future.”
Chang Haonan turned around and glanced at the sentry who had just finished saluting at the door, and said half-jokingly.
Zhu Yadan, who was driving, curled his lips:
“Chief, it's not that I look down on the comrades in the local security department, but if nothing else, it would be difficult for them to stand guard outside 24 hours a day…”
Shengjing also assigned a full-time driver to this car at first, but this would occupy an extra position.
Furthermore, according to Zhu Yadan, drivers who have not received special training will only operate randomly once they encounter an emergency, which may lead to accidents.
The steering wheel is still in your own hands.
So within a few days, the other party was invited to leave by her.
Of course Chang Haonan also knew that what Zhu Yadan said was the truth:
“What a good wish...and having said that, with the gradual improvement of our country's scientific research level, we really need to pay attention to this aspect.”
"I think... as long as we protect you, other places are not so anxious."
While working as a driver and bodyguard with Chang Haonan, Zhu Yadan finally experienced what it meant to be a "white jade pillar holding up the sky, and a purple golden beam bridging the sea."
She estimated that at least 70% to 80% of the new technologies and equipment she had heard of in the past two years were directly or indirectly related to Chang Haonan.
"Not to the extent, not to the extent."
Chang Haonan quickly waved his hand:
“Although I did play a role in some key positions, the results are always achieved by all comrades..."
While the two were talking, the motorcade had already stopped at the entrance of the government auditorium.
What surprised Chang Haonan was that the people waiting here to greet them seemed to be...a bit high-level.
He lowered his head to check what he was wearing, and then got out of the car.
The officer led by the officer came forward, but when he saw Chang Haonan's face clearly, he was obviously stunned for a moment. But after all, he was a seasoned veteran, so he quickly adjusted himself and shook hands with Chang Haonan:
“Are you Comrade Chang Haonan?”
“I am Commander Li Liangxin. On behalf of all the comrades in the military region, I welcome the arrival of comrades from the military industry system!”
At a time when the Internet was not very popular, people's appearance could only be transmitted by word of mouth.
The biggest feature of Chang Haonan, apart from being handsome, is naturally his youth.
So Li Liangxin, who had received a call from Cao Gangchun in advance, was actually mentally prepared.
I knew I was young, but I didn't expect to be this young...
This enthusiastic opening speech was completely beyond the expectations of Chang Haonan, who had just got off the car.
“You are too kind, too kind…”
Chang Haonan, a general of the same military rank, has seen a few of them before, but this is the first time he has met one who looks like this.
“Hey, you're welcome, you're welcome, my old friend Deputy Commander Zheng wanted to fly back from Anshan when he heard that you were coming for a meeting, so I stopped him..."
As he spoke, he led Chang Haonan up the steps outside the auditorium, and then he remembered to explain further:
“Oh, Deputy Commander Zheng is the deputy commander of our Shengjing Military Region and the commander of the Military Region Air Force. Zheng Shenxia has the same surname as Commander Zheng Liangqun, whom you should know, but they are not from the same family.”
Now Chang Haonan finally understood the crux of the matter.
It was the troops of the Shengjing Military Region who achieved the first air combat results of the Chinese Air Force in 30 years.
Although this incident has not been publicly publicized even within the People's Liberation Army so far, it has given Li Liangxin a big face anyway.
And Chang Haonan made significant contributions to the two main combat equipment of aircraft and missiles participating in the war, so it is normal for him to be loved by the opponent.
“Military-civilian alliance and mutual promotion are all efforts for the modernization of national defense..."
Although the former himself feels very happy about this, he still needs to be polite.
The review meeting is scheduled to be held tomorrow morning, so except for a few leaders who really can't get away, most of the participating experts have chosen to arrive one day in advance.
Therefore, when Chang Haonan prepared the materials needed for the next day's report in the main conference hall and was taken to the canteen of the agency guest house, he saw many familiar faces.
“Xiao Chang, this review committee of yours caught me off guard.”
Du Yishan walked up to Chang Haonan with a half glass of beer and patted him heavily on the shoulder twice.
Although he is nominally Chang Haonan's doctoral supervisor, even Mr. Tianwang cannot know the research progress of the turbofan 10 engine in real time without the authority.
So for Du Yishan, almost without warning, he suddenly learned that his student had done a shocking job.
Who would have thought that within three months of taking over the project, he would have finalized the overall design plan.
Of course, Du Yishan, as an expert in the field of aircraft design and Chang Haonan's mentor, does not serve as a member of the review panel, either from a professional perspective or from the perspective of avoiding suspicion.
The person who is actually responsible for the technical appraisal of this review is Liu Zhenxiang who is standing next to him.
But I can be considered an acquaintance with Chang Haonan.
“Xiao Chang, this is my third design review for Turbofan 10. I'm afraid it's unprecedented, right?”
Liu Zhenxiang also clinked glasses with Chang Haonan and said in a slightly funny tone.
"the third time?"
Even Du Yishan, let alone Chang Haonan, is not very clear about this matter.
“Yes, shortly after the Turbofan 10 project was established ten years ago, there was a design review, but at that time we couldn't even copy other people's engines, so naturally we failed in the end.”
"Later between 1993 and 1994, they used a new plan to drive it for the second time. They came up with a design of a CFM56 core engine. Looking back now, it is basically similar to the F110 engine. There is no problem with the design, but there are many technical issues. We simply couldn't meet the details, so we let it go.”
“The third time? It's now.”
Chang Haonan said in his heart, "Good guy, I know that the turbofan 10 is ups and downs, but I never thought it would be so ups and downs."
“But this time, with our Comrade Xiao Chang here, I still hold an optimistic attitude, otherwise, nothing will come...”
Liu Zhenxiang picked up the cup, drank the remaining wine in one gulp, and waved his hands at the same time.
“Don't worry, Academician Liu, this time will definitely be the last design review.”
Chang Haonan said in a deep voice.
“So confident?”
Liu Zhenxiang and Du Yishan looked at each other and smiled in unison.
“Well...the several key technologies that have been solved are going quite smoothly, and they are in line with the design plan, and there will be no major problems!”
