Chapter 1193: The problem of motivation

Qin Guan said that, of course Lieutenant General Abbas didn't take it seriously. Two years have passed and it will pass soon.
"Okay, no problem at all. These are for us to get closer. Thank you." In the eyes of Abbas, the other party wants to increase the displacement without increasing the price. Of course it is a good thing. Waiting for two years, again how is it?
However, Abbas thought about it carefully and felt something wrong: "Then, what power unit do you plan to use on this frigate?"
There are roughly three types of power plants for battleships.
The oldest power system, of course, is a boiler. The boiler heats water, produces steam, and drives a steam turbine. This device has been used since World War I. At that time, tens of thousands of tons of warships also used this kind of steam. The boiler can be said to be mature and reliable.
At the same time, it can use a variety of fuels, anything that can be burned. Nowadays, the most commonly used is heavy oil, which is a by-product of petroleum refining. The biggest feature is that it is cheap. Anyway, warships don’t care about environmental protection and save money. .
The technology is mature, the operation is convenient, and the power is sufficient. Even now, tens of thousands of tons of aircraft carriers use this power.
However, it has a big flaw, that is, slow response.
From lighting a boiler to a warship being able to move, it would take a few hours to say nothing. Once there was a war, it was too late to start. In the two world wars, warships were often killed so tragically.
Large battleships must be used, but for frigates, this is a bit of a taste. After all, frigates are pursuing rapid response and dispatch at any time.
In addition to the boiler, that is the internal combustion engine, of which the most common are diesel engines and gas turbines.
In terms of diesel engines, Han has technology, and now Han's Jianghu-class frigates use their own diesel engines.
The low-speed diesel engine is a marine power unit. This type of device starts quickly and can sail at any time. At the same time, the noise is low and the fuel consumption rate is low. However, it has a big defect, that is, insufficient power.
Those using marine diesel engines are low-speed vessels, and rarely exceed 25 knots, let alone 30 knots.
Even the 053H-class frigate developed in the history of the Han Dynasty has a maximum speed of only 26 knots. At the same time, its displacement is only more than 1,000 tons. Now it is changed to a 3,000-ton warship, and it is undoubtedly facing a serious shortage of power. The problem. The rest is the gas turbine.
The gas turbine, which is derived from the turbine engine used in aviation, belongs to a derivative and improved model. This kind of engine is small in size, high in power, and fast in starting. It is the trend of ship power.
The Niu Kingdom Navy was the first to put gas turbines into practical use. After that, all ships of the Niu Kingdom Navy used gas turbines as power.
Especially, after modification, turbines that could only use aviation fuel can also burn heavy oil. In this case, it is naturally cheaper than diesel.
This kind of 3,000-ton frigate would be the best if it could be equipped with a gas turbine. However, the current Han country probably does not have this technical reserve.
The only thing Han can tell is the Spey engine. This engine comes from Niu. It is now the main power of many fighters in Han. At the same time, I haven’t heard of any gas turbines in Han. , This power system is really a big problem.
Historically, Han was very interested in Niu’s Type 42 destroyers, first of all, the sea javelin, but in fact, Han was interested in more than the sea javelin.
The plan at that time was quite ambitious. First, two 051 ships were converted, and then six ships of the same type were built. The successor ships will be equipped with domestically produced "Sea Javelin" missiles, as well as imported gas turbines, "Dolphin" helicopters, A324 torpedoes, and "Eagle Strike"-8 missiles.
For the power of naval vessels, of course, Han has had many ideas. For example, it has been improved on the basis of Han Guo's own turbojet-8 to adapt to the use environment of ships, so that it can be used as ships.
It's a pity that it didn't stop afterwards.
But now that Han has a mature Spey engine and Qin Guan's leadership, how can he not use his brains on the ship?
Now, after hearing General Abbas’s question, Qin Guan said:
We have many solutions regarding the power of this kind of ship. For example, we are now developing a new marine diesel engine that can fully propel a 3,000-ton battleship to reach At a speed of 25 knots, we also have our own gas turbine."
After a pause, looking at the other person’s surprised expression, Qin Guan said,
You know, we already have a mature Spey engine in China. We have used this engine to make improvements in marine applications. Now, it has reached The power of eight thousand kilowatts is similar to the performance of the LM2500."
After the development of our third-generation engine is completed, the third-generation engine will definitely be used to develop the corresponding naval gas turbine, which is enough for our own 10,000-ton large drive. As for now, it is ready-made.
Think about the future navy, because there is no qualified engine, when the 167 ship was built, it was forced to use steam turbines. Now, we don't have to worry about the heart problem.
Good enough.
In the past, the reliability of any engine must be considered, but now Spey is absolutely reliable. The JH-7 produced by Han has been using Spey, and Han has been producing J-10. It's also using Spey's modification. This modification was made with Niu Guoren, and there is no big problem.
Niu Guoren is also changing, their s-m1a gas turbine, which is a model directly improved from Spey, although Niu Guoren himself is useless, it is successfully sold to the islanders and used in the island country’s high-level destroyers. on.
If you want to use a diesel engine, use a diesel engine. After all, diesel engines are cheap. If you want to use a gas turbine, then use a gas turbine, which has enough power.
So, why is the price of 100 million eagle yuan that Qin Guan said? That is based on the price of a gas turbine.
Now, Qin Guan talked about the power system again, and saw a strange color flashing across General Abbas's face. It seemed that the other party had concerns.
After all, these power systems have not been put into use by one's own side, and they have been directly given to the other party. The other party is afraid of reliability problems, which is also excusable.
Qin Guan smiled and said, "Do you have a better proposal?"
What plans can the holy nation have? You must not follow your own plan.
Who knows, General Abbas went on to say: "We have an idea, what if the LM2500 gas turbine is installed?"
Hearing this, Qin Guan was taken aback for a moment, right? You are thinking far, this thing, 100 million eagle yuan can't stop it!
