The hydrovoltaic effect is a physical effect that directly converts the mechanical energy (raindrops, rivers, waves) and environmental thermal energy contained in water into electrical energy through the interaction of water and materials. Water is the source of life, and electricity is the foundation of modern technology. Replacing primary energy and achieving carbon neutrality is the goal of my country's sustainable development in the next 30 to 40 years. The most abundant energy source on earth is the thermal energy that exists around us and in the atmosphere, from the sun, through water evaporation, condensation, rainfall, rivers, lakes, driving the earth's water cycle and maintaining the earth's freshwater resources. The interfacial physics and mechanics processes behind the hydroelectric effect involve multiple levels from micro to macro, including new green energy, surface interface physics, water-related ecology, biophysics, complex system science, cross-scale theory and calculation, and hydroelectric effect material design preparation, etc. While generating electricity, hydrovoltaic materials can also promote the process of evaporative cooling and the generation of purified water, which is a new way to simultaneously alleviate major human problems such as electricity demand, global warming challenges and lack of drinking water.
The characteristics of Three Aviation are the traditional advantages and main line of development of the school. With the emergence of new technologies and new applications, great changes have taken place in the field of Three Aviation . Especially in the context of competition among major powers, China's research and development of future aerospace equipment is urgent and strong. It is not only necessary to narrow the gap and strive for upstream in the existing mainstream technology directions, but also attach great importance to emerging cross-cutting research and seize development opportunities.
Faced with the severe situation of aerospace products with increasingly complex demands, tighter delivery deadlines, and increasingly heavier tasks, the aerospace and defense industries must undergo data transformation to achieve fundamental innovation. Stay competitive in a tough environment of lower costs, higher standards, better performance and greater capacity. my country has gradually attached importance to aerospace digital engineering and invested a lot of research and development funds. However, the digital design tools used in my country's aerospace industry still rely heavily on Western countries. In the international competition of next-generation aerospace equipment, planning the layout in advance and developing advanced design theories and digital/intelligent design tools is a feasible way to achieve overtaking on curves and avoid being controlled by others.
The Frontier Institute will face the future development trend of aerospace vehicles and power, explore and sort out several key research issues that cross disciplines, implement goal orientation, give full play to the school's existing discipline advantages, and combine the country's layout to increase aerospace equipment innovation (such as JKW Innovation Bureau, the two aircraft special projects, the National Natural Science Foundation of China Interdisciplinary Science Department, etc.), focusing on research on digital aircraft, digital engines, new unmanned aerial vehicles, and intelligent technologies for deep space exploration spacecraft. The Frontier Institute will aim at the bottleneck, subversive, and forward-looking research directions in aerospace dataization and intelligent technology, and carry out research work on three platforms: the aerospace CGRO platform, the aerospace digital twin platform, and the deep space exploration intelligent technology platform. . Build a scientific research team focusing on cutting-edge cross-directions such as new concept aerospace vehicle and power system technology, new methods and new theories of aerospace scientific issues, and help the high-quality development of our school's aerospace science and technology talent team.
