Chapter 215 Footsteps

Zhongyan collapsed on the bed, scratch paper scattered on the floor.

Just as the dean of the academy said, an engine with only 80% output will only have 60% or even 40% of its original load after being made into an aerospace craft.

The weight of the frame, shell, and the like already account for most of the power provided by the engine.

For example, 2-1 and 1.6-0.8, it is obvious that the remaining extra load capacity of the former is still higher than that of the latter.

The body is the necessary load for the engine.

In this case, it is particularly critical that the engine output does not meet the standard. Every 10% loss in engine performance may affect the carrying capacity by 20%.

Zhong Yan deeply felt that it was extremely difficult to operate the structure, and adjustments had to be made to the engine. He spent a whole week improving the engine's performance by an additional 5% on top of 80%. This was his limit.

An engine with 85% output.

Very difficult.

Target: an aerostat with a carrying capacity of at least 2.5 tons.

Zhong Yan knew that 2.5 tons was the maximum weight for steam spiders and steam mechs. Aerospace craft that did not meet this standard could not transport structural units to other islands. It cannot be used to quickly deploy units to other places in the territory... Airships cannot move as fast as infantry, and it is difficult to say whether they can be used for rapid deployment.

This was a dead end. Ji Lin didn't want a carrier to even transport standard squad-level equipment like steam spiders, which would need to be dismantled and transported separately, and then assembled again after being transported to the location.

If the tautology came from modern times, they would probably complain that the lord is Party A and does not understand Party B's pain.

But after all, Ji Lin didn't know much about production, so he could only compile his needs into a form and throw it to the college, asking them to do their best to complete it.

They have to complete research and development and preliminary manufacturing before the territory is developed and the island is completed.

The deadline is tight and the task is heavy.

Zhongyan walked out, went to the bathroom, washed his face with water, arranged the information on the table, put on his coat and left the dormitory.

Maybe I should bring the information to consult other students and see what they think.

Engineering design is still difficult for him after all. This kind of project that extremely requires the accumulation of experience is as difficult as the sky for a novice.

Go out, turn right, and bump into someone.

Papers were scattered all over the floor.

Zhongyan glanced at the girl in front of him who was full of breasts. She was wearing round glasses, covering her beautiful face, and her eyebrows were lowered and she was looking at the ground. She has light brown soft short hair hanging down on her shoulders. She is wearing a territorial college uniform that is close-fitting and has a bulging chest.

The girl was rubbing her head in the sun, her short brown hair swaying, and the corners of her mouth were slightly open due to pain.

Very nice.

A gentleman's journey ends with etiquette.

Noticing that his eyes stayed on the other party for more than three seconds, Zhongyan lowered his head and began to pack up the materials on the ground, not forgetting to give the other party a kind reminder.

"Classmate, you are going to the wrong place. This is the boys' dormitory area."

The male and female dormitories are on both sides of the college, separated by the teaching building in the middle.

He forgot all about it, he skipped two classes on runes in a row in order to study the floating stone engine and apply for the deanship of the academy.

It doesn't matter. He can understand what the dean said in class just by looking at his notes, and his talent is enough to keep him first without listening to the class.

"Ah, I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I, I'm here to give you notes."

The short-haired girl who bumped into him pushed up her round glasses and adjusted their position. She apologized in shame and haste, and at the same time helped Zhongyan pack up a pile of calculation records scattered on the ground. The moment she saw the information, she was stunned for a moment, shook her head and discarded the idea of ​​prying, and then continued to help Zhongyan pack it away.

"The dean of the college appreciates that you didn't come to the engineering class today, so he asked me to bring you the notes."

She took out a notebook from her arms and handed it to Chongyan.

Wait, is it an engineering class today?

Zhongyan rubbed his head. He seemed to have confused time. He was so busy that he couldn't determine what day of the week it was.

"It's engineering class this Friday morning,"

The girl replied firmly and took out two more notebooks from her arms.

"Not just today, you didn't come to class on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. The dean said you were busy with the latest territorial work project."

Oh, it’s broken, it’s over.

He skipped class for three days in a row.

Far away from the dormitory, the dean who had finished teaching sat in his office and looked at the refrigeration module blueprint in his hand that had been perfected through many experiments.

Feasibility verification, no problem.

The experimental blueprint has been handed over to the research team for trial production.

If it's quick, the territory will be able to get the mass production prototype in one week at the latest, and it will be confirmed after running it.

The dean picked up the tea cup and leaned on the chair to enjoy the pleasant warm sunshine at noon. Zhong said that the child was so busy and liked to be alone.

An assistant may be needed.

It was she who came here to apply to send materials to Zhong Yan. It was really strange why she had to go through his application for sending materials.

He couldn't understand the things about young people.

In his field of vision, a faint golden light suddenly flashed.
