Chapter 359 (1/2)

It is precisely because of this that they first manufactured the first manned aircraft of Tiangong technology at sea, which is the most important part of Tiangong technology, and then developed the aerospace aircraft step by step and the spaceship that can really fly freely in the universe in the future.

However, fortunately, the first manned aircraft of Tiangong technology has been finally designed at this time. At the same time, the parts of the first manned aircraft designed by Tiangong technology have also entered the manufacturing stage of parts. As long as the parts manufacturing is completed, their first manned aircraft of Tiangong technology will also enter the final assembly and any test flight.

However, since Tiangong technology is the first time to manufacture a manned aircraft, and it is also a medium-sized manned aircraft, even if it is designed and manufactured parts, it is not simple to assemble them.

Of course, there are millions of parts for an aircraft. Tiangong technology can't manufacture all of them, or some parts will be purchased, such as some screws, nuts and other parts, as well as some electronic equipment.

At the same time, in terms of rocket development, Tiangong technology also continues to develop. With the increasing number and completeness of aeroengine models of Tiangong technology, Tiangong technology will also transfer its research and development of engines to the research and development of rocket engines in the future.

At the same time, Tiangong technology will also increase the research and development of some new concept rocket engines, such as pulse detonation engines used in the atmosphere and pulse detonation engines used in space and the atmosphere.

Nuclear engine, atomic engine, ionic medium engine, etc.

Of course, in terms of various new rocket engines, in fact, Wang Bin and Tiangong technology have already begun to study, and even some have achieved results and reached the practical stage.

For example, for the pulse detonation engine used in the atmosphere, Tiangong technology has now developed to a practical stage. The maximum diameter of its engine tail nozzle can now be 50 cm, but in terms of thrust, the static thrust is 50 kn, that is, about 5 tons.

In terms of maximum thrust, because the properties of pulse detonation engine and ramjet are similar, when the aircraft speed reaches more than Mach 2.2, the thrust of the engine will rise sharply and finally reach the maximum thrust of the engine. Therefore, the maximum thrust of this engine actually reaches about 9.5 tons.

Although such thrust is still a big gap compared with the thrust of more than ten or twenty tons of other aeroengines of Tiangong technology, don't forget that the nozzle diameter of this engine is only about 50 cm, and compared with turbofan, turbojet and other engines, the total amount of this engine is also very light.

After all, the weight of turbofan and turbojet engines is often several tons or even higher, and the weight of this pulse detonation engine, according to the design data, is only about 200 kilograms, that is, 0.2 tons.

This also means that the specific impulse of this engine is several times that of a turbofan or turbojet engine, which is definitely great good news for an engine.
