Chapter 532 (1/2)
Of course, this is only the take-off distance of the ark space plane. As the space plane leaves the ground smoothly, the rapid climbing speed is faster and faster. However, when the speed of the single space plane is about Mach 2, the engine efficiency begins to decline extremely rapidly, and with the height of the space plane getting higher and higher, the climbing efficiency, And it's getting slower and slower.
But fortunately, at this time, the pulse detonation engine of the aerospace aircraft began to start, and the speed of the aircraft continued to improve, not because the efficiency of the turbofan engine decreased.
However, the pulse detonation engine they use is only the export version of Tiegong technology, so when the speed of the overhead aircraft reaches smach, it will not increase, but there is a downward trend.
However, fortunately, when this space plane reached an altitude of 50000 meters, due to the sharp decline of atmospheric resistance, the speed of this space plane rose sharply again, and until this space plane entered the earth's low earth orbit.
But by this time, there was not much fuel left on the space plane, which was only enough to return to the ground.
When the space shuttle entered the earth's low earth orbit, both Wang Bin and officials and personnel of other space agencies in the world focused their attention on the display panel of the control center.
He noted that the actual performance of this aerospace aircraft is different from the data publicized by M iron universe exploration company. Among the data publicized by them, this aerospace aircraft is the largest, with a low earth orbit carrying capacity of nearly 100 tons. According to the current flight data, the low earth orbit carrying capacity of this aircraft is soft and can not reach this data.
The actual carrying capacity data should only reach 23 of their propaganda data, that is, the actual carrying capacity is only about 50 or 60 tons, which is only equivalent to a series of levels of Phoenix.
Therefore, according to the level of Wang Bin's Tiangong scientific and technological personnel, such an aerospace aircraft is undoubtedly a failed product.
However, this is only relative to Wang Bin's Tiangong technology. For M iron universe exploration company, the design of such an aerospace aircraft is undoubtedly very successful. If their company can get the engine of Tiangong technology for its own use, even Tiangong 1 and Tiangong technology for its own use, the low earth orbit carrying capacity of this aerospace aircraft, It can reach at least 100 tons.
So even if it is normal, many people have seen from these data that the actual low earth orbit transportation capacity of this aerospace aircraft has not said anything.
Most importantly, Wang Tong and others have noticed that there is a large diameter rocket nozzle on both sides of the wing of this aerospace aircraft in each lesson, so its maximum low earth orbit transportation capacity will be improved, but it is still difficult to meet their publicity data standards.
At this time, the first Trans atmospheric flight of their ark, an aerospace aircraft, has not ended, because the air force aircraft still faces a major problem to break through, that is, re-entry into the atmosphere.
If it is unable to return to the atmosphere recently, it means that the aerial plane is actually no different from the rocket, and its carrying capacity is even lower than that of a rocket of the same level.
