I had to shut down my brain, and I couldn't help but stand on the spot, because on the instrument in front of the noisy test bench, the value in the column of the turboshaft engine's take-off fuel consumption rate was 0.28.
This value is no longer a miracle in the domestic turboshaft engine industry where 0.35 can be a fuel-saving miracle, but a complete miracle.
Enlarging the take-off fuel consumption rate to 0.28 means that during helicopter take-off, which requires the most engine power and is also the stage where the turboshaft engine consumes the most fuel, the fuel consumption per kilowatt-hour is only 0.28 kilograms.
In other words, when the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine operates at full load with a power of 3,000 kilowatts for one hour, the aviation fuel required is 840 kilograms.
It seems scary. After all, there are three wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engines installed on the Z8plus. If they are all like this, what is it if it is not a gas tiger?
On the other hand, the Z-9 is equipped with a turboshaft 8e engine, which is copied from the French Arri¨¨ turboshaft engine. Even if it operates at a take-off power of 522 kilowatts for one hour, the fuel consumption will not be 276 kilograms.
Far less than the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine, even the maximum takeoff fuel consumption of the turboshaft 8e is 0.53.
If you compare it like this, it means you don¡¯t talk about martial ethics.
You must know that the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine is a high-power turboshaft engine; the turboshaft 8e is just a low-power turboshaft. Even if the power is fully increased, it will not reach the fuel consumption of the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine.
But does this mean that the turboshaft 8e has low fuel consumption?
"Obviously not. On the contrary, the fuel consumption of the turboshaft 8e is quite high, even reaching twice that of the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine.
Because the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine has a power of 522 kilowatts, the fuel consumption per hour is only 146 kilograms, which is almost half of the fuel consumption of the turboshaft 8e.
? It can be seen that the real oil tiger is the turboshaft 8e.
It is indeed true that the fuel consumption of the turboshaft 8e is too high, resulting in the cruising range of the domestically produced Z-9 being always lower than the original French goods, which makes the military's attitude towards the Z-9 quite complicated.
Let¡¯s equip it. Not to mention that the Z-9 can¡¯t hold too much, and its legs are too short to perform high-intensity military tasks. It¡¯s completely worthless.
Don't equip it. After more than ten years, I have invested so much money, and I can't get water.
It was the troops¡¯ repeated hesitation on the Z-9 that gave Ascendas Group¡¯s Z-12 an opening.
Even though the previous generations of Z-12 are also stretched and have various problems, the wd-43z turboshaft engine equipped on the Z-12 has a fuel consumption rate of 0.4, which can meet the army's minimum demand for range when fully loaded. I endured all the problems of straight 12 and held my nose to support it.
In this way, in the process of comparing the two helicopters, which are not the worst, but only worse, both the Z-9 and Z-12 received orders from the army.
For Zhi 12, it is a complete survival. As for Zhi 9, they are also relieved. At least their public relations strategy is using the right routine.
Yes, Zhi9 has also improved, but it is not an improvement in technology and process, but an improvement in going to departments, looking for leaders, and lobbying for public relations.
Didn¡¯t you say that the turboshaft 8e has high fuel consumption?
It¡¯s enough to just change the value. The maximum takeoff fuel consumption rate is determined by the daily maximum power during takeoff. The engine only explodes a few seconds before liftoff. How universal can it be?
If you want to use it, you should use the daily cruising fuel consumption rate. This is the most commonly used and the most realistic.
What is the cruising power of the Turboshaft 8e? 350 kilowatts.
So the fuel consumption rate of turboshaft 8e immediately dropped from 0.53 to 0.4.
?????????? This is just to take care of the face of Ascendas Group. Otherwise, according to their internal test results, the fuel consumption rate should be 0.38 to 0.39, making it the only high-performance turboshaft engine in China with a fuel consumption rate below 0.4.
At that time, there was no standard for measuring the fuel consumption rate of turboshaft engines in China. Whether it was the reliable maximum takeoff fuel consumption rate of Ascendas Group or the daily cruising fuel consumption rate of a certain turboshaft manufacturer, superior departments accepted it.
Therefore, according to official media reports, the fuel consumption rate of the wd-43z turboshaft engine and the turboshaft 8e is both 0.4.
In addition, the power of the two engines is quite different, and all indicators are similar, so it feels like the performance of the two engines is similar. Some people even think that the Turboshaft 8e will be stronger. After all, the Turboshaft 8e is For imitation and French products, European technology is stronger than domestic ones, and the turboshaft 8 is certainly better than purely domestic ones.
With the turboshaft 8e in front of us, other turboshaft engine manufacturers can still play like this? Then why engage in research and development? Wouldn¡¯t it be easier to focus on digital games?
Wouldn¡¯t it be nice to use the saved funds as bonuses and welfare benefits for employees?
For a time, domesticThe performance indicators of turboshaft engines are so bad that foreign media who do not know the truth exclaimed that China overnight became a powerhouse in the research and development and production of turboshaft engines.
But in reality? Instead of improving, the turboshaft engines equipped by the troops have become worse in quality.
The head of the headquarters is so angry that he has a toothache. If not, he would not have set any industry standards for turboshafts by using the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine tested at the National Gas Power Laboratory.
It is necessary to establish a model and at the same time kill the unhealthy tendencies in the industry.
"How is it? Everyone? The maximum take-off fuel consumption rate of the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine is 0.28. Listen carefully, it is not the daily cruising fuel consumption rate, nor the low-load fuel consumption rate. It is the take-off fuel consumption rate with the largest fuel consumption, 0 take-off The group achieved less than 0.3"
Seeing the various expressions of excitement among the "friendly business" leaders looking at the value of 0.28, the head of the headquarters took the microphone and spoke in a nonchalant manner: "What is this concept? What is the daily life of the turboshaft engines produced by everyone here?" The fuel consumption during cruising is 0.12 higher than the fuel consumption index that consumes the most fuel, right? As for other aspects, do I need to elaborate?"
As soon as the words fell, the head of the headquarters looked solemn and his tone suddenly became sharp: "I still said the same thing, if Ascendas Group can do it, why can't you do it?
Is it because of the lack of funds or because of the lack of policies? Even to find a partner, the headquarters has to spend 20 million to help solve the problem. What about Ascendas Group?
At that time, I was still buying popsicles and ice cream, not to mention compared with you, even with one of your branch factories, but now?
The Ascendas Group has made its domestic turboshaft engines reach the world's advanced level by itself. How about you?
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Not to mention that the performance is not as good as the original, but you are actually all kinds of complacent, who gave you the courage? Don't you want to be shameless to his grandfather, don't you want to have an old face? "
The heads of the "friendly businessmen" never expected that the head of the headquarters would get angry at this time, and they were immediately frightened into silence.
The head of the headquarters glanced at everyone with a gloomy face, and then said in a deep voice: "In the future, the technical standards of turboshaft engines will all be based on the wd-63zb high-power turboshaft engine. If anyone is not convinced, just make me a 3000 kilowatt-level one." For high-power turboshafts, I will naturally use your standards, otherwise humph just wait for them to be eliminated and go bankrupt!"
Before he finished speaking, the head of the headquarters threw the microphone in his hand to the staff and walked away without looking back
