Chapter 1007 Type 002B aircraft carrier
"Nuclear-powered aircraft carrier?"
The leader frowned slightly: "Will it be more difficult?"
Currently, the only country in the world that has nuclear-powered aircraft carriers is the United States.
Other countries include France, which is building the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "Charles de Gaulle". The French Navy has been planning this aircraft carrier since the late 1970s to replace the two Clemenceau-class aircraft carriers that entered service in 1963. The construction of the aircraft carrier began in 1987, it was launched in 1994, and it was planned to be put into service in 1996. As a result, after so long, the "Charles de Gaulle" aircraft carrier has encountered many problems and has not been put into service until now.
There is also the United Kingdom, which has proposed to develop a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier since 1983, but now it is still in the evaluation stage, selecting a plan, and it is not known when it can start construction.
The difficulty of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier can be imagined.
"There won't be too much difficulty in this regard. The most difficult part is the power system. I am confident that I can solve it!" Liu Tao said: "The 002B aircraft carrier is a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. We can also experiment with some new technologies to prepare for the 003 large aircraft carrier!"
The leader nodded and said: "You are the most professional in the country in this regard. I believe you!"
After a short break at noon, the leaders left the Yangcheng Shipyard at about three o'clock in the afternoon.
The next time I come again will probably be the day when the 002 aircraft carrier is officially delivered to the navy.
Liu Tao also began to work on the development of the 002B aircraft carrier.
Since the 002B aircraft carrier is positioned as a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, it needs to be adjusted on the basis of the 002 aircraft carrier.
The most important thing here is the power system.
According to Liu Tao's calculations, the 002B aircraft carrier requires two reactors with a power of 100,000 horsepower each and a total of 200,000 horsepower. The reactor releases heat through nuclear fission, which heats the gas turbine, which then outputs power to four turbines and the power system.
Then, in addition to the nuclear reactor, the power system also needs to set up four 2000KW diesel engines to provide power.
In order to prevent the reactor from failing and causing loss of power, the 002B aircraft carrier should also be equipped with an 8000KW diesel engine as an emergency propulsion main engine.
In addition to the power system, the aviation fuel tank needs to be adjusted. After all, as a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, it does not need to carry so much aircraft carrier fuel. Other fuel tanks that were originally used as aircraft carrier fuel tanks can be adjusted to aviation fuel tanks.
In addition, the living and working conditions of the crew need to be adjusted.
When Liu Tao finished all the designs, he had no time to make arrangements and hurried back to Beijing.
Because National Day is here!
When Liu Tao's special plane arrived in Beijing, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening.
Back to the courtyard, Zhu Lin and the children were all there, and even Liu Jingming came back from the United States.
Last year, Liu Jingming's University of California, Los Angeles, made it to the semi-finals in the NCAA, but missed the finals. Liu Jingming did not choose to continue to fight in the NCAA, but announced his participation in the draft.
Then he was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers at the 23rd pick in the first round.
Liu Jingming's height has grown to 206cm, like a giant in the crowd.
Early the next morning, they set out for the square. Liu Tao did not go with them, but went to meet a group of foreign guests.
This National Day welcomed foreign guests from more than 100 countries and regions, as well as famous overseas Chinese.
Liu Tao first met with famous overseas Chinese, including those from Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Latin America, and North America!
Chen Liren, the eldest grandson of Tan Kah Kee, is a legend in his life. He was not only an outstanding entrepreneur, but also a loyal patriot, an outstanding educator, philanthropist, and social activist. In 1913, he returned to his hometown Jimei and founded Jimei Primary School, Jimei Middle School, aquatic, navigation, business, agriculture and forestry schools, and Ludao University. Xiamen University and Jimei University Village both respectfully called him the "school owner". Even after his death, his descendants inherited his legacy and have never stopped in education and charity for many years.
Now, Tan Kah Kee's descendants are still enjoying Tan Kah Kee's legacy. When Panshan Group opened up the Nanyang market, it took the initiative to find Tan Kah Kee's descendants for cooperation. Over the years, the Chen family has become the leader of the Chinese and overseas Chinese in Nanyang, and is also one of the top ten wealthy families in Nanyang, and his eldest grandson Chen Liren was elected as the Malay leader.
The reason why Liu Tao chose the Chen family is very simple. That is, Mr. Tan Kah Kee made outstanding contributions to the Revolution of 1911, national education, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the War of Liberation and the construction of the Republic throughout his life. Even after his death, he chose to return to his roots and his body was transported back to Jimei Aoyuan for burial. Tan Kah Kee's descendants would return to their hometown to pay tribute to Tan Kah Kee every Qingming Festival.
Chen Nanhong, the eldest son of Chen Zigu, joined the Communist Youth League in 1933 and the Party in 1939. After his father died in 1939, he returned to Thailand. After the property was divided in Thailand, he received 200,000 yuan, and he raised 60,000 yuan himself, and donated all 260,000 yuan to the New Fourth Army. In 1952, he was responsible for the preparation and establishment of the Beijing Institute of Geology. Chen Nanhong resolutely chose to go into business after the 1980s and went to Thailand to do business. Just over a decade ago, he became one of the top ten wealthy businessmen in Thailand and is now the Prime Minister of Thailand.
Li Tianjie, grandson of patriotic overseas Chinese Li Qingquan, who bought forest land and machinery in the Philippines, established several timber companies, and established an ocean shipping company to create a complete industrial chain. At its peak, he controlled 80% of the Philippines' timber exports and was known as the Philippines' "timber king". In addition, he founded the first overseas Chinese financial institution in the Philippines, Zhongxing Bank, and founded the Chinese newspapers "Overseas Chinese Business News" and "New Fujian Daily" which were very prestigious in Manila at that time. At that time, Li Qingquan was elected as the vice chairman of the "Southeast Asian Overseas Chinese Relief Association for Refugees in the Motherland". From 1938 to 1940, in just over three years, under his organization and leadership, overseas Chinese in the Philippines donated more than 11 million Philippine pesos. In October 1940, Li Qingquan made a will on his deathbed and donated his 100,000 US dollar estate as anti-Japanese funds.
The Li family is not among the top ten wealthy merchants in the Philippines, but it is also among the top 20. Now Li Tianjie enjoys the legacy of his grandfather "Li Qingquan" and serves as the Prime Minister of the Philippines.
Outstanding representatives of Chinese and overseas Chinese were invited to attend the National Day celebrations.
Some of them were known to Liu Tao, and some were unknown to him.
Also here was Yang Zhenning. For example, Yang Zhenning knew many outstanding representatives of Chinese and overseas Chinese in Europe and America. Yang Zhenning had a high prestige and status in Europe and America.
Yang Zhenning, who was 77 years old, had resigned from the position of president of Southwest Associated University and served as honorary president of Southwest Associated University, honorary chairman of the Chinese Association for Science and Technology, and honorary chairman of the Chinese Physics Association.
Yang Zhenning now has two residences, one is a single-family villa by the Dianchi Lake of Southwest Associated University, and the other is a single-family villa in Tsinghua Park. He would live in these two places in turn for a period of time. Even at the age of 77, he still taught undergraduate students and taught doctoral students.
