Gu shuofen: blue sky sends affection and casts "War Eagle" for the country

2021-11-04

From scratch, he presided over the establishment of China's aircraft design system and promoted the construction of China's aviation industry system; Selfless and selfless, as the founder of aircraft aerodynamic design in China, he has always been committed to promoting the development of China's aviation science and technology; More than 90 years old, his wish still continues to soar in the front line of scientific research On November 3, Gu shengfen, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Sciences and chief designer of J-8 and J-8 II aircraft, as the winner of the national highest science and Technology Award in 2020, received a heavy medal in the Great Hall of the people in Beijing. His eyes once again focused on the prestigious New China aircraft design master. Aviation dream from childhood: let China's aircraft design have its own soul "Chanting Fen", his father chose these two words as his name. In addition to the word "chanting" according to the Chinese traditional family, he also took the meaning of "chanting the valiant of the world's virtue and chanting the Qingfen of the ancestors". The name is like a man, sir. The wind is high and the water is long. People familiar with Gu shuofen say that he has no distractions. He has a specialized and persistent hobby developed from his childhood - a heartfelt longing and fascination for aircraft design and manufacturing. In 1937, the "July 7th incident" broke out, and the bombing sound of the aircraft became the most impressive sound of Gu shengfen's childhood. In 1940, at the time of national crisis and foreign aggression, 10-year-old Gu Songfen received a "special birthday gift" - an aircraft model from his uncle, "which was very rare at that time". Gu Songfen was out of control and immersed in the world of aircraft. In the war years, air raids and bombings made the young Gu shuofen plant a seed in his heart. He secretly vowed: "we must make our own aircraft!" With this seed, Gu shuofen resolutely went to the north with snow and ice. In 1951, at a difficult time of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, new China's aviation industry started hard. In this year, Gu shengfen, 21, closely linked her life with the aviation industry of her motherland. In 1956, Shenyang aircraft design office, China's first aircraft design organization, was established. Gu shengfen, as the first core member, served as the leader of the pneumatic group. Under the leadership of pioneers such as Xu Shunshou, Huang Zhiqian and ye Zhengda, he started the journey of self-designed aircraft in New China. Aerodynamics is the soul of aircraft design. At the beginning of aircraft design in China, aerodynamic design methods and means were completely blank. The first challenge Gu accepted after taking part in the work was the aerodynamic design of China's first jet aircraft, Jian Jiao 1. He devoted himself to studying and studying foreign data, and finally put forward the aerodynamic parameter design criteria and aerodynamic characteristic engineering calculation method of subsonic aircraft, and successfully completed the design of j-jiao-1 aircraft. Trying hard to solve design problems: three skies to "find problems" for the aircraft Like still water flowing deep, Gu Songfen is elegant and quiet. Colleagues and friends said that he was knowledgeable and memorized like a "bookworm". More than 90 years old, he still insisted on learning and always said to everyone: "what I can do now is to read some books, recommend them to relevant comrades, and sometimes translate some materials to give young people some help as much as possible." Elephant the great form has no shape. Gu Songfen is modest and pragmatic. In his work, he went all over the professional groups and laboratories in the design room, the experimental factory and the model processing workshop. Gu shengfen is found in the assembly plant, final assembly plant and test flight station of Shenfei department. He has become good friends with many old workers. Like a sharp sword out of its scabbard, Gu shengfen is persistent and fearless. In order to solve the problem of transonic vibration of the J-8 aircraft, he took off by the J-6 aircraft and observed the flight flow spectrum of the J-8 aircraft. The distance between the two aircraft was kept at about 5 meters or even closer In 1964, China began to develop the J-8 aircraft, which is the first high-altitude high-speed fighter designed by China. Gu xuanfen, as the deputy chief designer, was responsible for the aerodynamic design of the J-8 aircraft, and later presided over the development of the aircraft. One problem after another, one experiment after another... Time seems to be static on Gu shengfen. No matter what period or difficulty, he can face it calmly; But time is boiling here. He is fearless to move forward for the ideals and beliefs in his heart. On July 5, 1969, the J-8 aircraft made its first flight. However, in the subsequent flight test, the aircraft vibrated strongly, which made all the researchers hang their hearts. In order to completely solve this problem, Gu Songfen decided to take the Jian Jiao 6 plane to heaven and observe the vibration directly behind the test plane! According to Lu Mingdong, a test pilot who was flying the plane at that time, he recalled: "President Gu was nearly half a hundred years old at that time, but regardless of the impact of high-speed flight on his body and the potential crash risk, he resolutely took a telescope and camera and observed and photographed the dynamics of the plane at an altitude of 10000 meters, which shocked and moved all the comrades present." After three close-up observations above the blue sky, Gu shengfen and his team finally found the crux of the problem and successfully solved the chattering problem of J-8 transonic flight through later technical improvement. Dream by dream, blue sky and deep feeling: concentrate on one thing and stick to doing one thing well Gu's office is like a "forest of books", and he can always remember the location and content of each book. In the eyes of his family, he is undoubtedly a "workaholic"; In the eyes of colleagues and students, he is the "big man" who can always help the poor and solve the danger. Today, Gu shengfen is suffering from diseases. After two operations, he is still thinking about the future of China's aviation industry. "Since the establishment of the first aircraft design office, China's aviation industry is destined to take the road of independent innovation." Wang Yongqing, chief expert of Shenyang Institute of aviation industry and chief designer of multi-type aircraft, commented on the direction pointed out by Gu shengfen. "What Gu taught us is not only the design and innovation of aircraft, but also let us learn not to care about questioning at any time and always adhere to the truth. If we do our own work well, the gold will eventually shine." as a student of Gu Songfen, now he has also become the chief designer of J-15 carrier aircraft of academician Sun Cong, President of the China Academy of Aeronautics, recalled his contacts with Academician Gu with deep feelings. Throughout her life, Gu shengfen insisted on doing a good job in the development of aircraft. "Gu is always the 'eternal Idol' in the hearts of our young people," said Zhang Dongbo, senior business manager of the aviation industry science and Technology Commission, as a representative of Gu's young colleagues. Gu rarely has a social position. If he is not related to his major and job, he will basically decline. From small things, people can always feel Gu shengfen's frugality and simplicity. Some aviation postgraduates working next to Gu shengfen once joked: "academician Gu's furniture may be older than us." "His life is very simple. Eating the canteen is delicious in his heart; he is very strict with his career. He often tells us that we must concentrate on our own aircraft design." this is the special feature of Gu Shufen in the eyes of Zhao Xia, a former colleague and chief model designer of Shenyang Institute of aviation industry. "Gu Shufen's participation in the work coincided with the founding of new China's aviation industry. He was the witness, participant and witness of the nearly 70 year process of China's aviation industry. He always practiced the spirit of scientists in the new era, the spirit of aviation serving the country and the mission of aviation power. He dedicated everything to the blue sky of the motherland and the party." Aviation industry group spokesman Zhou Guoqiang said. His life in his 90s, 70 years of scientific research career and Gu shengfen's experience have witnessed the 70 years since the founding of new China's aviation industry. (outlook new era)
