All round car designer

Chapter 24
State Key Laboratory of Steam Academy.

"You mean, the team I'm going to guide is just the two of you, Zhou Fei, are you the captain, the driver, and the technical backbone?"

Xu Nan felt that he must have heard it wrong. This may be the most nonsense sentence he heard today.

"Mr. Xu, it's only the two of us for the time being. After the school's recruiting activity starts in October this year, the size of the team will definitely grow." Zhou Fei couldn't help correcting.

"I don't know about you, but it's not an easy task to design a car and successfully compete in formula. Suspension, engine, aerodynamics, car electronics...these all take time and effort. , relying on the two of you alone, unless you directly use someone else's racing car to make a small modification, it is impossible to complete it at all."

Xu Nan persuaded patiently.

"Teacher, you don't need to worry about these things. I will solve them by myself. I am looking for a teacher this time. I mainly hope that the teacher can help to contact the relevant machining factory. Some parts after remanufacturing need special processing. In this regard, the teacher's There must be more resources than us.”

Zhou Fei smiled, as if he didn't take what Xu Nan said to heart, as long as he can solve the machining problem of the parts, then he can do it with real knives and guns.

Xu Nan stared at Zhou Fei for a long time, but in the end he could only say "Okay". Who made him the instructor of this team? When meeting such a student, Xu Nan could only "admit it".

"Wait a little longer." Xu Nan stopped Zhou Fei and Jiang Yang who were about to leave, then took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Mr. Chen, I'm Xu Nan, I want to ask you for all the car models of the Jisu team in the past... Yes, yes, then I will send someone to get it from you, okay..."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Nan looked at Zhou Fei and Jiang Yang again, "You two go to the traffic building to find Mr. Chen Yan Chen, and I will ask him to prepare the racing car model designed by Jisu Racing for you. The file is too big , it is inconvenient to transmit directly.”

This Chen Yan is the instructor of Jisu Racing Team.

Although he might not be able to use these models, Zhou Fei was still very moved when Xu Nan did this. After thanking him, the two walked towards the communication building.

"Brother Fei, everything else is ready, what about the money?" Jiang Yang asked worriedly.

This is a very practical problem. Whether it is the engine or the body material, it requires tens of thousands of yuan of capital investment. Without money, everything is useless.

"The money has already arrived. The total is 20 yuan, which is only a lot more than the budget of the Jisu team." Zhou Fei did not hide anything, and replied with a smile.

"20?" Jiang Yang's face was full of surprise, "Where did you get so much money, could it be that you are a hidden rich second generation?"

"Fart rich second generation, don't worry about where I got it from, anyway, I got it through legal channels, you just have to remember, don't make a fuss, let's make a big deal out of silence!"

Now that Zhou Fei said so, Jiang Yang didn't ask any more questions. The two came to the communication building, found Chen Yan's office, and got relevant model materials from him.

Everything is ready, and then it's time to bury your head and work hard.There are two weeks left before the final exam of this semester, Zhou Fei decided to set aside five days for review, and the rest will be spent on the research and development of the Mercedes-Benz team's first racing car.

The first thing is to determine the model of the engine and how to modify it.

According to the competition rules, the team can choose either a single-cylinder engine or a four-cylinder engine. The advantage of the single-cylinder engine is that it can greatly reduce the weight of the vehicle, but its disadvantage is that the power is definitely not as good as the four-cylinder engine, especially in In terms of high-speed obstacle avoidance and durability, a single-cylinder engine will inevitably suffer.

In the past few competitions, Jisu team used all single-cylinder engines, but for this year's competition, they have decided to abandon the horizontal bar and switch to four-cylinder engines.

But Zhou Fei's decision surprised Jiang Yang, because he actually chose the single-cylinder engine that was abandoned by Jisu!
"Although the single-cylinder engine has a weight advantage, if you encounter a top-level four-cylinder engine, this advantage will soon be compared. Even Jisu has given up the single-cylinder. Why do you still use the single-cylinder, Feige? Haven’t you always disliked the lack of power of a single cylinder?”

Jiang Yang felt very puzzled.

"The reason why the single-cylinder engine did not benefit in the previous competition was because the competition rules limited the displacement to 600, but this year the organizing committee has carried out a restructuring, and the displacement of the engine has risen to 700. The power disadvantage has been greatly reduced, as long as the supercharging is done well, the single-cylinder engine can still beat those four-cylinder engines."

Zhou Fei pointed to the new competition rules on the computer and explained.

To be honest, Zhou Fei feels a pity for Jisu team to give up the single-cylinder engine this year. After all, Jisu is definitely the one with the most say in all teams in terms of single-cylinder engine.

After Zhou Fei said this, Jiang Yang noticed that the rules of this year's competition had changed so much. It seemed that Zhou Fei was well prepared.

"Then our engine also uses the CRT single-cylinder engine of the island country Benma Company?"

"Yes, just use the engine from Jisu before." Zhou Fei nodded.

It is not easy to design a brand new engine in a short period of time. The best way is to use the existing engines in this world.

"Then the next engine modification?"

"You don't have to worry about this, I've already figured out what to do."

The biggest change Zhou Fei will make this time is the fuel injection system of the engine. Since the world is still in the transition stage from carburetors to EFI, Zhou Fei doesn’t mind giving them a hand and making carburetors a thing of the past. !

After the matter of the engine was settled, the two of them discussed the suspension, steering, and braking systems. However, Zhou Fei felt that compared with the power system, the changes that needed to be made to the chassis were not large, so this was not a big deal. Not the main problem he needs to face.

As for the electronic control, Zhou Fei does not intend to make too obvious innovations. If electronic equipment such as ABS and ESP appear for the first time in the occasion of the college student formula competition, Zhou Fei feels that it is a bit overkill. .

How can you kill a chicken with a butcher's knife!

Let's save it for future mass production cars.

With these preliminary technical solutions, the next step is to show their true strength.

Zhou Fei has already opened the model of the car that Xu Nan wants to come over on the computer. To be honest, it is not of great reference value. What's more, Zhou Fei didn't intend to learn from any racing car in this world from the very beginning, because Behind him, there is an entire car civilization of another world as support!

There are still a few days left before the exam week. While Zhou Fei is busy reviewing, he is also preparing for the restructuring of the engine. Anyway, his requirements are not high, as long as he can pass the test. Jiang Yang, a college bully, can help to focus on the key points. , Zhou Fei is not worried.

On the first night of the exam, Zhou Fei was still busy drawing pictures in the dormitory. At this time, his mobile phone rang suddenly. Zhou Fei picked it up and saw that it was his old father at home!

After being reborn for so long, this was the first time Zhou Fei received a call from his family!
