Chapter 1840: Long Fei's Ultimate Dream (Part 1)

APU is the abbreviation of Auxiliary Power Unit, which means auxiliary power unit. It is usually located at the tail end of the aircraft, and its core is a small turbine engine, which is a power unit other than the main engine of the aircraft. Its function is to independently provide power and compressed air to the aircraft, and some APUs can also provide additional thrust.

In layman's terms, before the aircraft takes off, the APU provides the aircraft with the power and air source to start the main engine; When the main engine stops in the air, at a certain altitude, the APU can be started at high altitude to provide power for engine restart; after the aircraft lands, the power and air source provided by the APU can be used for lighting and air conditioning in the cabin and cockpit, so that The main engine with high fuel consumption and high noise is shut down in advance.

Especially before take-off and after landing on the ground, it is definitely not economical to fully open the main engine of the aircraft, and the APU will come into play. Under normal circumstances, the power of the APU is not high, two to three hundred kilowatts is enough.

The Allison 250 turboshaft engine that Guo Tailai came back from Lolorong is the most suitable APU, and it is also used in some small aircraft and trainer aircraft. The power is suitable, 260 kilowatts, 353 horsepower. Several Bell helicopters use this engine , This kind of power is not bad even if it is used in a car, but it is used in a motorcycle?

"I'm not satisfied with the power of Allison250, so I plan to upgrade this engine a little bit." Guo Tailai was not surprised by Mi Feifei's surprise at all. It's interesting to play something different!

"You're already using airplane engines, and you still need to upgrade?" Mi Feifei finally accepted the whims of the big boss. It can't be called whimsical, as long as the big boss thinks, these can always be realized, but, isn't it too exaggerated?

"Upgrade to at least 300 kilowatts, more than 410 horsepower, so that's fine." Guo Tailai stated his goal calmly, without feeling anything wrong.

The motorcycle that Guo Tailai will make is the Y2K motorcycle that MTT will launch in the future. However, Y2K uses the original engine, which is the power of 260 kilowatts. Guo Tailai is still a little dissatisfied with this. He wants to verify what he has learned, and he has to go from easy to difficult in this way. Take out some future technologies.

MTT shocked the world when it launched the Y2K in 2008. The biggest highlight of this motorcycle is the turbo engine with a power of 260 kilowatts, a top speed of 365 kilometers, and a price of 150,000 US dollars. This car can't start compared to a traditional piston engine model, but it runs at a speed like a piece of butter gliding over a hot pan, silky smooth, all the way to the end.

What is even more fascinating is that when the Y2K motorcycle is running, it is not the sound of an ordinary piston engine, but the sound of an aircraft engine, which is completely different from ordinary motors and even more beautiful than the sound of an F1 racing car engine The sound waves will definitely make the rider linger. To put it bluntly, street bombings are more attractive than ordinary cars.

In addition, with a powerful power of 353 horsepower, the weight of the engine is only 60 kilograms. Such a unit weight power is even better than the Dodge Terminator (Dodge Tomahawk). But Guo Tailai is still not satisfied with this, and has to increase it to more than 410 horsepower.

"Then why don't you think about using airplane engines in cars?" Mi Feifei didn't know how to evaluate the big boss's wild idea for a while, so he could only ask with a wry smile.

"Because someone has achieved it!" Guo Tailai said with a face of reason: "The drag races played by foreigners, not to mention airplane engines, even rocket engines, not a few people put them on cars and play them. It also makes no sense.”

Those crazy foreigners in the drag race can pile up the engine power to 10,000 horsepower at every turn, and the Optimus Prime truck can accelerate to 100 kilometers within three seconds. However, many times those players play with disposable toys, and even the car cannot be driven on the road at all except for drag racing. Guo Tailai is not interested in this kind of one-off gameplay. If he really wants to play one-off, he would rather make a rocket or something. That thing is also one-off, and it will definitely run faster than any car.

"Then why don't you use a car engine on a motorcycle?" Mi Feifei still couldn't help complaining. Putting an airplane engine on a motorcycle is beyond people's imagination, okay?

"I used it!" Guo Tailai replied calmly and seriously: "You forgot, the Terminator motorcycle I cooperated with Dodge in the United States uses the engine of the super-running Dodge Viper!"

Mi Feifei closed his eyes and smiled wryly. The Dodge Terminator is not produced in China, and Mi Feifei is not an enthusiast, so he forgot about that car. He opened his eyes and saw the big BOSS looking at him innocently, as if he was still waiting for him to question him. After all, he still didn't want to say anything, so he could play whatever he wanted! Anyway, it sounds very creative, and maybe the news will spread, and it will also trigger a carnival among motorcycle fans and Mr. T fans all over the world.

Dinner is eaten by three people. Lin Jiayi slept all day, and when she was woken up by Guo Tailai, she had recovered a lot, at least the dark circles on her face had completely disappeared.

Lin Jiayi wasn't surprised at all when she got up and saw Mi Feifei was there. While washing up, in the large bathroom of her suite with Mi Feifei, Lin Jiayi directly gave Mi Feifei a questioning look.

Mi Feifei smiled and nodded, looking very satisfied. Although today is the first day, but the wonderful feeling makes Mi Feifei feel a little regretful, he should have taken the initiative earlier, and delayed enjoying it until now, it is really a failure!

During the meal, Mi Feifei told Lin Jiayi about the aircraft engine motorcycle that Guo Tailai wanted to make, but Lin Jiayi didn't seem surprised at all, but instead glanced at Mi Feifei with disdain: "Isn't this just for fun? Airplane You helped look after the submarine and everything else, and you’ve made tens of thousands of tons of super yachts, so it’s worth making a fuss about playing a motorcycle?”

"That's right!" Mi Feifei nodded speechlessly and admitted that even more exaggerated than this, a motorcycle is a big deal?

"Jiajia, what's the situation with the pocket money for this trip to the United States?" Guo Tailai listened to the funny, changed the subject slightly, and asked about the income from the United States.

"The time is short this time, and the publicity cannot be exaggerated. Unlike in Iraq, the content of the news cannot cause panic consequences, so the profit is not very much." Lin Jiayi replied calmly: "The rate of return is less than 2%. It has been safely withdrawn, and the profit is probably more than 270 million US dollars. That is, the investment of the business jet company has been earned back, and it is pocket money."

"Less than 2% earned more than 200 million?" Guo Tailai was shocked: "Do we have a principal of 30 billion U.S. dollars?"

"Leverage was used." Lin Jiayi explained angrily. After such a long time, the boss is still so careless in investment, so he trusts himself so much?
