“Brilliant, truly a marvelous idea…” Dennis said excitedly. Originally, he had planned to immerse the combustion chamber in a bath of cold liquid to achieve a cooling effect, but Lynn’s design was clearly more energy efficient, because the air came directly from the airstream of the fighter jet during flight.
Lynn sketched and scribbled, incorporating many ideas into the design. The thruster, after several revisions, came to resemble a patchwork monster.
But as long as it was useful and efficient, that was all that mattered!
Whatever was convenient was the way to go!
“Why does this thruster structure look so strange?” Dennis glanced over Lynn’s revised blueprints and asked, quite perplexed.
The design looked like two funnels put together end to end, with their narrow parts joined together.
“This is the most fluid dynamic structure I’ve researched recently. I expect it to double the speed of the airflow and liquids passing through the duct without a problem!” Lynn’s lips curled into a smile as he explained. This structure was actually the famous de Laval nozzle, also known as a supersonic ejector.
Dennis frowned as he looked at the blueprint. He believed in optimizing the structure of the thruster duct to increase speed, but the idea that merely changing one structure could double the existing speed seemed a bit exaggerated.
What do you think?
