Hans, the strong willed pilot, how did he overcome these difficulties, fly the plane and make so many movements?
At this time, Hans was almost soaked from head to foot, just like he was fished out of the water!
When the hatch cover was opened, a heat wave gushed out, mixed with the smell of engine exhaust gas. People can't believe that there will be people in such a bad environment!
"The plane must be modified." Hans was sitting in his seat and almost collapsed, he said to the people outside.
If you want to modify it, you have to make great changes!
The test flight confirmed that the aircraft has good handling quality, such as accurate control response, which of course benefits from good design and high-power engine.
However, the cockpit of the aircraft must be modified!
For the front engine, the heat will spread to the back. If it is a liquid cooled engine, the heat can be taken away by the coolant and distributed to other places. However, there is no way to be air-cooled!
The heat dissipation of the front engine is not good, and the hot air flows backward!
As a result, in this test flight, when the cabin was closed, the temperature of the whole cabin rose to 55 degrees Celsius! Moreover, some of the exhaust gases from the front engine jumped into the cockpit. Without an oxygen mask, these exhaust gases would suffocate Hans!
When Hans, who had slowed down, came to the conference room and said all this, the people stopped talking and looked ugly for a while.
What should I do? Is it a mistake to use an air-cooled engine? In this case, it means the complete failure of this model!
Of course not!
Kurt will never give up! In World War I, Fokker company made many advanced aircraft. Now, after the war, Fokker company must not decline!
Suddenly, Kurt remembered that after taking off, Shrek issued the order to use the oxygen mask in time. It seems that Shrek must know something! He was so divine that he predicted the possible overheating of the aircraft in advance! Well, general Shrek, there must be a solution!
"General Shrek, do you have any good ideas to solve these problems?" Kurt said to Shrek.
Solve these problems! Of course Shrek has good ideas! As a military fan of World War II, Shrek knows the famous fw190 in great detail!
This aircraft encountered many difficulties in its early stage. The biggest problem is overheating!
This is also a problem encountered by all air-cooled aircraft. Even the United States has been troubled by these problems. For example, the best B-29 strategic bomber in the United States has been facing the problem of engine overheating throughout its service, which was not solved until after World War II.
Now, these problems, of course, are not problems.
"First, move the cabin back." "Moving the cockpit back half a meter should greatly reduce the impact of engine heat on the cockpit," Herrick said
Since the cabin is too close to the engine, resulting in overheating, just lean back!
"However, this will make the pilot's vision more affected." Kurt said.
The aircraft of this era are all propellers. The propellers in front provide power for the aircraft to move forward. At the same time, they are also a scourge, because it should be prevented from colliding with the ground!
Therefore, propeller aircraft are rear three-point landing gear, with the front head cocked high, so that the propeller can leave the ground.
At the same time, it also means that the pilot's front vision is very poor because the front is raised!
Moreover, the engine is in front, so the pilot's position must be behind the engine! In this way, there is a huge shelter in front. For liquid cooled engines, the pilot is directly next to the engine, while for air-cooled engines, the pilot has to move back!
Move back, the field of vision is even worse!
"You can raise the cabin slightly." Said Shrek.
The solution can only be to raise the cockpit, so that the pilot's exposed body is higher and the natural field of vision is wider!
On the other hand, the Navy's aircraft carrier is planned to have catapults! With catapults, you don't have to worry about the take-off of the plane!
Kurt nodded. Let's say it's a solution!
"With regard to engine overheating, I propose to add a ten blade cooling fan in front of the engine and increase the opening of the engine fairing." Hilrick continued.
Historically, this is how to solve it. Since the cooling performance of the air-cooled engine is not good, simply install a large fan on it, blow air at it and force cooling! This is absolutely a correct solution. After such treatment, the heat dissipation problem of fw190 is finally solved.
Xierik's simple plan sets a tone for the improvement of this fighter. If there is a problem, it is normal. If there is a problem, solve the problem!
Now, Shrek absolutely supports this aircraft. At the same time, Shrek has more ideas!
"I have another suggestion." "In order to increase the range of this aircraft, we can effectively use the space on the aircraft. For example, the wing of the aircraft can also be made into a closed type, which is used to store fuel."
Wing tank!
A row of transversely arranged ribs are strung together with several long beams, and the outer side is wrapped with skin to form a wing. The wing beams and ribs of old aircraft are made of wood, and the skin is made of canvas. Therefore, although the wing is hollow, it cannot be used.
In this era, the aircraft with all aluminum alloy skin has moved forward. For example, the wing beams, ribs and skin of this new fighter are made of aluminum alloy.
Then, the space in the middle of the wing can be used. As long as it is sealed, it can store fuel! The wing becomes a big fuel tank!
At the same time, there is another advantage. When the aircraft flies, the lift on the wing is upward, and the gravity of the fuel in the wing is positive and negative, which will offset each other. By reducing the force on the wing, the structure of the wing can be made lighter.
In later generations, the wing fuel tank is absolutely standard, and even 70% of the fuel of large passenger aircraft is installed in the wing.
And now, to put fuel into the wing, Shrek is definitely the first to put forward!
Kurt was first happy and then worried when he heard hilrick's words: "in that case, as long as one of the other party's bullets hits the wing, the wing will burn and catch fire."
In the past, the canvas skinned aircraft often had thousands of holes in the skin when they came down, but they could still fly. Now, with one bullet, the aircraft may catch fire!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
