Chapter 795 False Proposition of Catapult Icing

Water freezes when it is cold, which is the most common phenomenon in nature, and the substance of water has been thoroughly studied by scientists and engineers, which is why nuclear reactors use pressurized water reactors. Water is a common Matter, all of its properties are known to man.

However, many subjective understandings of people are wrong, such as whether a light ball and a heavy ball will fall to the ground at the same time. The ancient Aristotle often preached wrong views.

The reasons for these mistakes are still not fundamentally understood.

It is normal for water to freeze when it is cold, but the water vapor in the catapult is not ordinary water vapor, but high-temperature and high-pressure water vapor! According to the ideal gas state equation, PV=nRT, the greater the pressure, the higher the corresponding temperature. Ordinary water will be boiled at 100 degrees and turn into water vapor. On the high mountains, the air pressure will drop, less than At 100 degrees, the water has already boiled. It is troublesome to cook an egg on a high mountain, and a pressure cooker must be used.

Similarly, if the pressure is increased, the temperature will rise. The temperature inside the catapult is much higher than 100 degrees. In this way, the small amount of steam leaked from the track of the catapult will indeed be in the air. Immediately vaporize. It is normal for water vapor to vaporize when it is cold. The problem is that the catapult at this time has been heated by steam! This temperature is enough to evaporate the water mist on the deck.

At the same time, this is just one aspect. On the other hand, in order to ensure that the water vapor will not freeze, the steam in the catapults in high latitudes is not just fired with ordinary distilled water, but in distilled water. , and added an additive specially used to prevent freezing. This additive is almost similar to the principle of antifreeze used in automobiles.

(The hero of East China can imagine that everyone will have various questions about this content. You are welcome to discuss it in the book review area, but please post in a civilized manner.)

The problem of water vapor freezing has been solved! The next aircraft carrier has already disembarked from the berth and is in the outfitting stage. The steam catapult can continue to be installed in place, and there is no need to change it to a ski jump takeoff!

Report to Moscow that we have successfully experimented with catapult takeoff in high latitudes, and the situation is normal. Andrei said, his eyes, looking at the MiG-23K that had just catapult takeoff, after a round After the circle, realign the deck and land down.

General Andre, the Argentine side sent a message, agreeing to all the conditions we put forward, and requesting that we dispatch a new aircraft carrier killer. At this moment, a communication officer who had just received the satellite communication said to Andre .

Argentina agrees! Hearing the news, Andre was also excited. The Soviet Navy,

Since then, we have a base in South America! The territory of the Soviets, open up again!

Okay, since the Argentines are so powerful, we will not be stingy, and order our Ivan Rogoff-class landing ship to unload our treasure. Andre said.

This landing ship did not follow the fleet at first. It was not until the British were disabled and the United States decided to dispatch the joint fleet that it quietly set sail. It came directly from the Indian Ocean. It joined the formation three days ago.

After all, the Soviet Navy's ocean voyage this time was not to occupy a certain country, and did not need any landing ship, and this landing ship definitely did not carry Marine Corps equipment.

The Ivan-Rogoff-class dock landing ship is the latest landing ship developed by the Soviet Union in the 1970s. The full-load displacement of this landing ship is 12,000 tons; Accommodating various landing craft, the tank cabin is in front of the dock cabin, directly leading to the first gate, and can be loaded with tanks or vehicles. And there is also a springboard, you can go directly to the beach when you land.

Generally speaking, the front of this landing ship can accommodate 20 tanks or other vehicles, and the rear dock can accommodate 2 Swan class air cushion landing craft and 1 mechanized landing craft.

But now, there are no tanks or hovercraft in the belly of the large and straight-through landing ship, and there are two big guys compactly placed inside.

The shape is very special. From the top, it looks like an airplane with a tall vertical tail and an airplane-like cabin. However, from the bottom, it looks like a ship, neither fish nor fowl, and the most incomprehensible thing, It is the nose part, with four engines on each side, placed side by side, it is like a monster with four different faces.

And on the back of this monster, there are three rows of double-packed cylindrical things arranged side by side. Anyone with military knowledge will know that there are definitely powerful anti-ship missiles inside this thing!

After receiving the order, the front and rear hatches of the landing ship were slowly opened, and the sailors who had been waiting for a long time, with the help of the equipment in the cabin, slowly moved the two big guys one after the other from the Hatch out!

The aircraft carrier killer slowly revealed its true face. The sunlight in the high latitude area was quite dazzling. The huge body reflected the sunlight, and almost all the personnel on the surrounding warships looked there.

Andre's eyes also looked at the landing ship, watching the big killer slowly come out, Andre's mood was also extremely surging.

Although he was born in the Air Force, Andre also has a great understanding of maritime equipment, especially the naval equipment of the Soviet era, and the behemoth in front of him is the aircraft carrier killer that will be embarrassing for future generations. Ground effect aircraft!

Ground effect aircraft refers to a dynamic vehicle that uses ground effect to provide support and fly.

The so-called ground effect means that the lower surface of the wing is very close to the ground, forming a blockage of airflow and increasing the lift of the wing. Therefore, the height of this aircraft is only a few meters above the sea level. Although it looks like an airplane, it cannot fly at high altitude. Even the current aircraft can fly up to 7,500 meters, and usually it doesn't fly so high, it always flies on the sea. However, its advantages are also quite prominent, that is, its carrying capacity is quite strong, almost the same as that of a ship, with the carrying capacity of a ship and the speed of an airplane!

Ground-effect aircraft became popular for a while after World War II, and all countries launched research and development. However, due to various reasons, they were all abandoned in the end. Only the Soviet Union persisted and developed a series of ground-effect aircraft!

And after Andrei entered the top ranks of the Soviet Union, he also attached great importance to ground-effect aircraft, and with the support of Ustinov, the development of ground-effect aircraft was even faster!

And the one in front of me is a fully mature ground-effect aircraft that attacks aircraft carriers. The top-loaded vehicle is the 3M80 Sunburn supersonic anti-ship missile! (To be continued.)
