Nanjin has now become the 701st of the most important ship design and research institute under China Shipbuilding Industry Co., Ltd.
Lin Miaoyu was favored by Yang Xiaoyi, the female chief engineer of the Type 022 missile boat, and entered the 022 missile boat design team and participated in the design of the 022 missile boat.
However, now that the design of the 022 missile boat has been completed, the next most important work is how to combine some details with the pulsating production line technology.
Of course, there is still an unresolved focus problem of the 022 missile boat, that is, the damage management design, and in this regard, the chief engineer Yang Xiaoyi and Lin Miaoyu, who has just joined the design team, have some disagreements.
Yang Xiaoyi's office.
Lin Miaoyu is arguing with reason, she thinks that the original damage management design should be overturned, because she thinks that the original damage management design is too simple and unreasonable, although in terms of design goals, the 022 missile boat itself does not give too much consideration to the damage management, because if this kind of catamaran is really hit by enemy fire, one side is damaged, it is difficult to save, but Lin Miaoyu remembered that Shen Huan once told her that this kind of catamaran missile boat should also have a relatively complete damage management system, because in Shen Huan's vision, This kind of missile boat is not only to be equipped by the Chinese Navy, but if possible, it can also be exported, and if the damage management system is not perfect, this will be a relatively big defect.
Lin Miaoyu held a sketch of the damage management design in his hand, and looked at Yang Xiaoyi excitedly: "Mr.
Yang, I know that it will be more troublesome and add a lot of work to modify the design of the damage management system now, but I think the improvement of the damage management system is really necessary, and this set of damage management design does not add much weight and space, and the volume of the 022 type can be added completely, and it will not affect the overall performance indicators!"
” Yang Xiaoyi also felt distressed, why didn't she want to make the Type 022 more perfect?
After all, this is the first type of ship designed by her, and it is also a ship with the most innovative technology applications, which can also be said to be a ship that breaks through the convention, but now there is not much time left for the Type 022 design team, and the above requirements are that the overall design work of Type 022 must be frozen next year, that is, in January 2000, and transferred to the construction design stage.
The time is very urgent, only five months away, so although the damage management design that Lin Miaoyu took out made Yang Xiaoyi's eyes shine, it will affect the whole body if the design is modified, which is the most important reason why Yang Xiaoyi disagrees, and it can't affect the development and design progress of the 022 type because of this.
Yang Xiaoyi smiled bitterly: "Witty words, I know that you have worked hard to make such a good design, but you have to think about it, now we have only five months of time, and we must freeze the overall design after five months, if we modify the design of the damage management system now, it may delay the entire design schedule, resulting in our entire team not being able to complete the overall design work as scheduled, and then affecting the construction design work and construction plan in the future, do you understand what I mean?"
” Lin Miaoyu nodded and said: "Mr.
Yang, I understand, but I don't think this will affect the progress of the overall design, but as a ship designer, we should also design safer ships for our navy's soldiers, right?"
I think it is very important to improve the design of the 022 type damage management system, I ask Mr.
Yang to give me two months, if I can't complete this work, I will bear all the responsibility!
” Of course, Yang Xiaoyi knows Lin Miaoyu's background, her parents used to be shipbuilding engineers in Jiangnan Changxing Shipbuilding Group, and now her father is also the director of the Ship Radar Electronics Research Institute, and more importantly, Lin Miaoyu's boyfriend Shen Huan is the one who proposed the preliminary design of the Type 022 missile boat, and she certainly has the right to propose to modify the design.
As soon as she thought of Shen Huan, Yang Xiaoyi understood that the reason why Lin Miaoyu was so confident was that maybe it was really Shen Huan who would help her behind her, after all, the 022 missile boat is a small ship, and the damage management system is still very special, one is its double-body structure, which is born with the defect of difficult damage management, and the watered ship on one side will tilt rapidly, and it will be more difficult to maintain balance; Second, the activity space in this small ship is relatively small, coupled with the high density of equipment and weapons installation, and the space for human operation in it is limited; In addition, in the event of a fire, the aluminium hull is even more dangerous, so it is very difficult to design a complete damage management system, and the cost may rise a lot.
So Yang Xiaoyi had no choice but to nod and say: "Okay, I will report your suggestion to the director, this is not something I can make a decision alone, I'm afraid I need to report to the superior leader!"
” When Lin Miaoyu heard it, he said happily: "Thank you, Mr.
Yang, I believe that the superior leaders will agree, even if the design progress is delayed a little, it is worth it."
I see it this way, our Type 022 as an innovative missile boat, we must improve the previous design of the ship's damage management mainly by hand, first, our advanced missile boat, to have a highly automated monitoring system, for example, in the design of the fire protection system of the missile boat, it can be designed for centralized control, not only in a specific cabin, but even through the central compartment remote control.
In this way, after the degree of automation is greatly increased, the lives of our missile boats and their crews can be protected to the greatest extent. ” The damage management of the ship is indeed very important, in the history of the damage management caused by the failure to cause the sinking of warships, the most famous of which is the Royal Ark aircraft carrier of the Empire on which the sun never sets, when it was only hit by a torpedo, under normal circumstances, as long as the damage management is effective, through pumping and plugging, to maintain the balance of the hull, it is completely safe to return.
But in fact, due to some problems in the design of this aircraft carrier, after being hit by a torpedo, the whole ship lost power, and it could not be repaired in a short time, and the final hit part kept flooding, resulting in the sinking of a huge ship.
Forty years later, in the Battle of the Falklands, the destroyer Sheffield had the same problem, because of an unexploded anti-ship missile, the whole ship lost power, and the ability to manage damage was lost, and finally it capsized and sank in the water.
The damage management design is to allow the warship to save a lot of capabilities in the case of damage, so that the damage management system can play a life-saving role.
For example, if the ship is hit by an enemy weapon during the operation, the command cabin of the ship will inform the whole ship of the accident compartment, location, and the nature of the damage.
Of course, damage management is not only these, but also includes damage control of weapons and equipment on board, harmful gases, etc., in addition to the design of the damage management system to be perfect, it is also necessary for the crew to be well-trained and have a very proficient training in the use of the damage management system on the boat.
