    The installation of air filters on helicopters is already a black technology in itself.

    After all, no aircraft in the world has installed an air filter on its air intake duct before, which really affects the air intake.

    But Chen Xin relied on the powerful system upgrade function to create an air filter that can be installed on helicopters, allowing helicopters to fly into the sky with air filters installed.

    "After installing the air filter, will the power performance of the aircraft be affected?" Chen Xin placed the two air filters removed from the Z-20 on the table. While taking them apart, he asked the pilot next to him  Asking.

    "It has a certain impact. The air intake is indeed attenuated to a certain extent than before, but overall it can still meet the flight needs. However, the power of the engine is lower than before, and the load needs to be adjusted." The pilot told Chen  Xin reported the situation, and also told Chen Xin the changes in the aircraft's performance parameters after installing the air filter.

    After listening to the pilot's introduction, Chen Xin nodded clearly: "It seems that the installation of an air filter will still have a great impact on the engine's air intake. Although it will not make it impossible to fly, it will also have a great impact on the engine power. In  Without moving the engine, we can only continue to improve the air filter or enlarge the intake duct."

    "If the air intake duct is enlarged, will it affect the structure of the aircraft?" The pilot is naturally knowledgeable. When Chen Xin said that the air duct should be improved, he was a little worried that this would destroy the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft.

    "There may be some impact, but it can be adjusted and it won't be a problem." Chen Xin didn't care about this, and seemed to say it in an understatement.

    Enlarging the air intake duct does not affect the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft. This would be a big project for a normal aircraft designer, even equivalent to redesigning the entire aircraft. But for Chen Xin, who has the system in hand, this is really a big deal.  It¡¯s nothing.

    While studying the disassembled air filter in his hand, Chen Xin suddenly asked the pilot out of curiosity: "Speaking of which, there is no satellite navigation now and it's so dark. How did you fly here?"

    ¡°There are positioning instruments on the plane, which can still determine the orientation. When paired with an altimeter, there is no danger of getting lost.¡± The pilot said it very easily, but only they themselves knew the danger and difficulty involved.

    Flying at night is a difficult challenge in itself. With satellite positioning, tower guidance, air control and many other auxiliary conditions before the disaster, flying at night does not seem to be that difficult. Anyway, just fly according to the preset data.  After all, there is no reference point when flying high. Everything depends on the various flight assistance systems on the plane. It can even turn on autopilot to let the pilot take a rest.

    But after losing these things, flying has become the very dangerous thing that tested the pilot's ability in the past.

    After losing modern auxiliary means, the current aircraft flying is actually not much different from that during World War II. It is just that today's aircraft are more advanced and have computer assistance. Compared with the pilots during World War II who could only rely on compasses and  The watch calculates its own position, and now pilots can intuitively read their precise position from various instruments on the aircraft.

    But this does not reduce the danger of night flying, especially now that the visibility is so low that you can barely see your fingers, and there are almost no reference objects on the ground. In addition, the helicopter flying height is not high, and it is very likely to hit the mountain and cause serious damage.  disaster.

    Under such circumstances, the pilot was able to fly the helicopter here, risking his life, which is really amazing.

    "No matter what, it's still very dangerous!" Chen Xin sighed, admiring these pilots a little more.

    "How can soldiers be afraid of danger?" The pilot seemed to have been aware of this for a long time and did not show any emotion: "Since I have chosen to be a pilot, I have already thought about the dangers I will face."

    Hearing what the pilot said, Chen Xin couldn't help but look at him deeply, but didn't say anything else. He just turned his attention to the air filter in his hand, and then upgraded it with the system's functions.

    "I have made some adjustments to this air filter, which should improve the air intake. You can test it when you return. After you return, let the professional technicians take a look. If you have any questions, you can always come to me.  ." Chen Xin handed the upgraded air filter back to the pilots and helped them install it on the helicopter.

    The pilot saluted Chen Xin and thanked him: "Thank you, Comrade Chen Xin, for your help. We will take the first step."

    Perhaps it was the soldiers who were not good at speaking. Although the pilot expressed his gratitude to Chen Xin, he did not express too much gratitude.Thank you, but my gratitude to Chen Xin is very sincere.

    "Have a nice trip." Chen Xin didn't mind this either. He smiled at the pilot and watched him get on the plane. He restarted the plane and set off a gust of wind.

    He took a few steps back to a safe distance and watched as the helicopter's propellers rolled up the flying snow, then gradually lifted up and disappeared into the night sky.

    "If the plane can resume flying, life will be much easier in the future." Looking at the helicopter flying away, Chen Xin couldn't help but sigh.

    "Helicopters may not have much of a problem, but can large jet aircraft also do it? The air intake problem of large aircraft engines is much more serious than that of helicopter engines, right?" The political commissar on the side heard Chen Xin's sigh and suddenly asked him curiously  Asking.

    Compared with helicopters with limited carrying capacity, fixed-wing aircraft are the real focus. After all, whether they are civil airliners, transport aircraft, or military fighter jets, they are all fixed-wing aircraft, and their engine air intakes are much larger, especially for large aircraft.  , while several engines bring huge lift, the demand for air is also extremely amazing.

    But if this problem can be solved and large aircraft can return to the sky, the changes to the current situation will be amazing.

    "For large aircraft, you can first consider traditional propeller aircraft. The air intake volume of their engines is not as exaggerated as that of jets. They can still fly with the addition of air filters, and they can be converted to electric ones if necessary." Chen Xin said  This is still considered, but for jet aircraft, he has no good solution: "As for jet engines If the air quality does not improve significantly, consider redesigning it. The air filter cannot meet the needs of flight."  , if the sound barrier breaks through the air filter, it will be broken.¡±

    Although not all jet aircraft can break through supersonic speeds, it is obvious that the supersonic fighter jets in the military are the focus of the problem that needs to be solved.

    But Chen Xin is helpless at this point. Give him an aero engine and he may be able to transform an engine that can be used in today's environment, but this is not very necessary.

    Because dust in the air affects flight only temporarily. As the dust gradually falls, when the air quality meets flight requirements, those jets can naturally return to the sky. There is no need to redesign a jet to meet short-term needs.  engine.

    ¡°After all, if you can¡¯t fly, others can¡¯t fly either.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
