Chapter 739

Noisy and messy liquid oxygen kerosene engine workshop.

Director Bi and his assistant walked in hastily with frowning brows.

Not long ago.

Director Bi received a call from Director Nie of the liquid oxygen kerosene engine workshop, saying that Professor Gu had something very important to see him.

I heard the urgency in Director Nie's words.

Director Bi thought Gu Lu had caused some trouble.

So he hurried over without even thinking about leaving the meeting.

That’s right!

When I received a call from Director Nie just now, Director Bi was holding a core-level meeting.

And the content of the meeting.

The purpose is to discuss how to solve a series of problems encountered in the current development process of the Long March 9 launch vehicle.

because.

According to the current progress.

It is basically impossible to build this new Long March 9 launch vehicle before 2024.

…………

Gu Lu's workstation is in a corner of the workshop.

Wait for Director Bi and his assistant to arrive.

There were already a few people scattered around Gu Lu.

These people are all technical developers of the liquid oxygen and kerosene engines at the base, and they are the backbone of the liquid oxygen and kerosene engine workshop.

But now.

These people were all attracted by the beautiful machine beside Gu Lu.

That's a huge engine.

Although this engine is pieced together from various discarded parts, its structural beauty cannot be concealed.

The engineers surrounding him were dazzled as they looked at it.

Of course they know the goods.

The engine in front of Gu Lu.

Let’s not talk about anything else.

At least in terms of structure, it is perfect.

And at this time.

Director Bi also stopped and looked up at the huge engine.

This engine is one model larger than the ordinary engine.

But since Director Bi can be the leader of this base, he certainly has a deep understanding of liquid oxygen and kerosene engines.

According to Director Bi.

At least this engine wasn't played around by Gu Lu.

Because the connection and composition between the various components are in line with the principles of the liquid oxygen kerosene engine.

But what exactly is the situation?

He also needs to see the schematic diagram of the internal structure of the engine or its actual operation before he can make a conclusion.

However, one thing is for sure.

That's Professor Gu, he really has something!

…………

Gu Lu held up his safety helmet, struggled to tighten the last screw with a screwdriver, turned around and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Director Bi, you are here!"

Seeing Director Bi standing on one side, Gu Lu nodded and said hello.

Director Bi didn't have much energy to chat with Gu Lu, but walked directly to Gu Lu, pointed at the liquid oxygen kerosene engine lifted by a crane and asked.

"Professor Gu, did you build this engine?" Director Bi said with a hint of surprise in his tone.

Gu Lu shrugged and did not deny it, "Yes, I made it."

Director Bi raised his eyebrows, "Alone?"

Gu Lu took off the rubber gloves on his hands and threw them on the table nearby, "Alone."

"Can you run it and let me have a look?" Director Bi said with deep curiosity in his tone.

"Okay!" Gu Lu agreed immediately, "But I need some fuel."

Director Bi motioned to Director Nie who was standing on his left, "Get some fuel for Professor Gu."

Since Director Bi has spoken, Director Nie will of course comply.

He rubbed his hands and looked at Gu Lu with a smile, "Professor Gu, how much fuel do you need?"

Gu Lu made a rough estimate in his mind and reported a number, "About five hundred catties."

According to the design draft.

The fuel weight that this liquid oxygen kerosene engine can hold is about 2.5 tons.

If you want to simulate an engine operation, you need at least 500 kilograms of fuel, otherwise it is meaningless.

Director Bi directly waved to Director Nie, "Old Nie, just ask someone to bring a thousand kilograms of fuel over."

Director Bi is not someone who is stingy with the five hundred kilograms of fuel.

Five hundred kilograms of fuel is just a drop in the bucket compared to the hundreds of millions spent on research and development funds for the entire rocket research and development base that year.

Compared to the five hundred kilograms of fuel.

Director Bi was even more curious about how well the liquid oxygen kerosene engine designed, developed and manufactured by Gu Lu alone actually worked.

Now.

One thing Director Bi has to admit is.

Professor Gu, the technical consultant sent by the headquarters, did have something, and was not the gilded young man he had thought before.

but……

No matter how capable Gu Lu is.

Director Bi didn't quite believe that Gu Lu could design a liquid oxygen kerosene engine that met the requirements of a launch vehicle by himself.

This is obviously unrealistic.

so.

Regarding the slightly huge liquid oxygen and kerosene engine designed by Gu Lu in front of us.

Director Bi is looking forward to it.

But it's not very high.

In Director Bi's view.

Gu Lu's engine can at most make some slight improvements to the various data of the original model.

But this is quite acceptable for a young man like Gu Lu who is less than thirty years old.

This proves that Gu Lu is a talented technical person.

Wait until this matter is over.

Instead, Gu Lu could be assigned to a technical leadership position and be responsible for solving certain technical problems.

Director Bi was thinking silently in his heart.

…………

soon.

One thousand kilograms of fuel was delivered.

Workers then load the fuel into the engine.

then.

The forklift comes in.

Transport the filled liquid oxygen kerosene engine directly to the vacuum chamber.
