I-NASA yakha i-prototype enkulu 'yenjini engenakwenzeka'

Naphezu kokugxekwa, impikiswano, kanye nokungabaza okukhulu okushiwo ososayensi nonjiniyela emhlabeni wonke, uhlelo lwe-NASA lwe-EmDrive alufi. Amalebhu e-Eagleworks kulindeleke ukuthi afanekisele le njini ye-magnetron engu-1,2-kilowatt "engenakwenzeka" phakathi nezinyanga ezimbalwa ezizayo.

Kumele kuvunywe ngokusobala ukuthi i-NASA ayibeki izinsiza ezinkulu zezezimali noma izinsiza ezibalulekile zabantu kulokhu. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, noma kunjalo, akawushiyi umqondo, ngoba ukuhlolwa okwalandela, ngisho nakamuva okwenziwa ku-vacuum, kufakazela ukuthi idrayivu enjalo inika amandla. Ukwakhiwa kwe-prototype ngokwayo akufanele kuthathe isikhathi esingaphezu kwezinyanga ezimbili. Ngemva kwalokho, cishe izinyanga eziyisithupha zokuhlolwa nokuhlolwa kuhlelwa. Ekusebenzeni, sizothola ukuthi lokhu, osekuvele kukhulu, umfuziselo wenziwa kanjani.

Ekuqaleni, i-EmDrive ingungqondongqondo kaRoger Scheuer, ongomunye wochwepheshe bezindiza abavelele eYurophu. Le phrojekthi yethulwa kuye ngesimo sesitsha se-conical. Umkhawulo owodwa we-resonator ubanzi kunomunye, futhi ubukhulu bawo bukhethwa ngendlela yokuhlinzeka ngokuzwakalayo kwamagagasi kagesi obude obuthile. Ngenxa yalokho, la magagasi, asakazekela ngasekugcineni okubanzi, kufanele asheshiswe, futhi ehlise ijubane abheke ekugcineni okuncane. Ngenxa yejubane elihlukile le-wave front, kufanele basebenzise ingcindezi ehlukene yemisebe emikhawulweni ephambene ye-resonator futhi ngaleyo ndlela bakhe ukusunduza okungeyona iqanda ukuhamba komkhumbi. Kuze kube manje, kuphela ama-prototypes amancane kakhulu akhiwe nge-thrust force ye-oda lama-micronewtons. I-Xi'an Northwest Polytechnic University of China yenza isivivinyo ngenjini ye-prototype esebenzisa ama-micronewton angu-720. I-NASA ikuqinisekisile ukusebenza kohlelo olwakhiwe ngokomqondo we-EmDrive kabili, okwesibili futhi endaweni engenalutho.
