Chapter 36 Test Drive

A few days later, He Xingzhou completed the design of the first version of the maglev motor. However, this version is still not very practical. After communicating with the engineers of the expert group, he found that his design should be based on the current industrial manufacturing level.

In the field of high-end industrial manufacturing and precision machining, it is still a leader in countries such as Germany, the United States and island countries.

So He Xingzhou made several revisions to the design of the magnetic levitation motor until he decided on a low-cost magnetic levitation motor that satisfies the manufacturing process.

The design drawings were sent to a certain auto parts factory in Northeast China, where they were manufactured by professional engineers.

One week later, in the tower scientific research institute, Guo Cheng, an engineer from FAW Group, sent a message to He Xingzhou in the communication: "Chief He, the maglev motor has been manufactured and is waiting for testing!"

He is now everyone’s new name for him. Because of He Xingzhou’s age, everyone does not address him very well, and he is called Comrade He Xingzhou.

Considering that he is the chief designer of the Great Wall of Steel Project, everyone calls him chief engineer according to engineering practice.

"Okay, then I will come right away!" He Xingzhou replied.

"Ge Ding, arrange a plane immediately, and I'm going to the car factory in the northeast!" He Xingzhou shouted into the communicator.

"Ready at any time!" Ding Yue immediately went to the apron to prepare for the plane.

The various resources required by the Xuanwu Project are too broad, and it is impossible for scientific research, development and manufacturing to be carried out in the sentry research institute.

Many have to borrow other research institutes or factories, so the Xuanwu executives arranged a private plane for He Xingzhou to command He Xingzhou's operation.

This is a remodeled armed helicopter, with the military’s air license, it can not only fly directly across the country, but also go to military bases everywhere!

Ding Yue, as a professional special force, can fly a plane.

More than an hour later, He Xingzhou arrived at the factory where he was located. Here, the automotive engineers were waiting nervously.

In the test workshop, He Xingzhou met Guo Cheng, an engineer in charge of magnetic levitation motor design and electromagnetic floating car body design, and Feng Yue, a senior vice president of China FAW Group.

It is worth mentioning that Feng Yue is not an executor of the Xuanwu Project, so he does not know the real purpose of He Xingzhou. He only knows that He Xingzhou is a scientific researcher sent by the National Academy of Sciences to develop new electric vehicle motors.

"Chief He, welcome to our factory!" When Feng Yue saw He Xingzhou, his mind was full of question marks. He had seen academicians from the Academy of Sciences and Engineering, most of whom were over fifty years old!

He Xingzhou is so young, what status makes him so valued? The group headquarters actually issued a document asking the group to cooperate with his research work! And how did he develop a metal-air battery at his age?

"Mr. Feng." He Xingzhou shook hands with him. Aside, Guo Cheng said: "He, the finished magnetic levitation motor is in the test workshop, and testing can be started at will."

"Okay, let's start now." He Xingzhou said.

He Xingzhou followed him to the workshop, where a group of engineers and technicians were waiting.

"This electromagnetic levitation motor is different from our traditional magnetic levitation motor. It not only has bearing magnetic levitation, but also generates strong repulsive force to keep the overall structure in suspension."

"It is not so much a magnetic levitation motor as it is a magnetic levitation motor unit. It contains multiple structures such as batteries, motors, and electromagnetic converters. It is the soul of the entire electromagnetic levitation vehicle!"

He Xingzhou said this to the camera. He planned to edit the test screen into the video.

The first video was released, and the response was overwhelming, which made him and the scientific research institute fruitful. According to Xu Zhilan, the battery technology licensing contracts that have been reached now exceed two billion, and some are still in talks!

The current attitude of the Xuanwu project executives is that the Xuanwu project must be absolutely confidential, but He Xingzhou’s technology promotion can continue.

As for the speculations and doubts of the outside world, it is not necessary for the time being; wait for them to prepare for the corresponding, then announce the Xuanwu plan to the people of the whole country and the world!

The entire maglev motor unit appeared in front of He Xingzhou. It looked like a car chassis with equipment such as battery packs, electric motors, and electromagnetic converters installed on it.

Guo Cheng said: “According to our design, this chassis structure is made of magnetic material. When the motor starts, it can conduct magnetic force and form a repulsive force opposite to the magnetic material on the ground to achieve the purpose of levitation.”

"The greater the motor power, the higher the levitation height and the faster the running speed!"

He Xingzhou double-checked, the design of this maglev motor unit is more optimized than when he designed it. He confirmed that there is no problem, and said, "Let's start!"

"Magnetic levitation unit, ready to test drive!" Guo Cheng shouted.

The magnetic levitation motor unit was placed on the circular magnetic track dedicated to the test, and everyone became nervous.

All the people present were the top domestic automotive engineers, mechanical engineers, dynamics experts, etc., but at this time, they felt like a student waiting for the college entrance examination results to be released.

In the automotive industry, sophisticated engine technology has always been monopolized by foreign countries, and the performance of domestic automobile engines has always been inferior to foreign counterparts.

Therefore, in the auto market, foreign brands prevail and monopolize most of the industry’s profits. Through these products, the wealth of the Chinese people continues to reach the pockets of Western countries.

In order to catch up with them, countless engineers have struggled for decades without reaching their goals.

No one day they don’t want to get rid of this situation, and even the industry once desperately believes that it is no longer enough to develop fuel engines alone, and they must use electric motors to overtake corners.

In addition to being clean and environmentally friendly, this is also one of the reasons why the country vigorously promotes electric vehicles.

And now, this maglev motor unit represents another height in the automotive field. Once it is successfully tested, it will definitely change the entire automotive industry!

The new force of magnetic levitation motors will occupy the high ground of automobile engines! Let domestically-produced automobiles and related industries have the right to speak internationally!

In a few minutes, the technicians are all ready.

Feng Yue was already nervous, his palms were sweaty.

"Three, two, one, start!" He Xingzhou shouted, as he pressed the specially designed wireless signal device, the magnetic levitation motor unit began to run.

The electricity of the lithium air power battery drives the motor to rotate. The motor converts electrical energy into electromagnetic force, and generates a magnetic field through magnetic materials.

The force of this magnetic field repels the circular magnetic track, and I saw the “car chassis” slowly levitating, about ten centimeters above the ground.

Normal driving, it will not levitate so high, which consumes more power. Now because the maglev motor has no load, the levitating is higher.

"Floating!" an engineer exclaimed expectantly.

Thank you cnjianghu, Xuantianzi, 20-22 for your rewards!
