Electric planes will fly circles around gasoline planes in
the near future. "In the drive to devise more efficient and durable batteries, one promising option uses carbon nanotubes, which not only can store far more electricity by weight than lithium ion batteries but also retain their charge for a much longer time." https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...charging-ahead http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8Pb_psj1A8 --- Mark |

Also, I included this video for conceptualization purposes only. The battery pack weighs 200lbs. In 10 years this will make a good comedy film. It's like looking at a steam engine in a volkswagon. (however it does fly) The new generation of technology will shrink that battery pack down to 5lbs, and the size of a cigar box. Once that occurs, you will see power beyond your imagination that will outrun a Cessna Corvalis TT. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8Pb_psj1A8 --- Mark |

Battery weight is simply a matter of chemistry -- and that imposes severe limits on its ability to carry charge. |

As soon as you improve your popcorn. Battery weight is simply a matter of chemistry -- and that imposes severe limits on its ability to carry charge. No sir that isn't correct. Battery weight is the mass of the container and it's contents. The chemistry is optional. The charge is electrical. It may exist in highly efficient molecular structures superior to the lead and acid water of the 1800's. --- Mark |

As soon as you improve your popcorn. OK, Buster: Just go down to your grocery store and take down a package of popcorn. Tell them I said you could have it and watch what happens next! Ok. Wait...this sounds like a trick. Nah, you wouldn't. Battery weight is simply a matter of chemistry -- and that imposes severe limits on its ability to carry charge. No sir that isn't correct. Battery weight is the mass of the container and it's contents. Â*The chemistry is optional. The charge is electrical. It may exist in highly efficient molecular structures superior to the lead and acid water of the 1800's. Yes -- either dilithium crystals I just can't see crystallized dilithium, with an internuclear separation of 267.3 pm and a bond energy of 101 kJ mol−1 it just ain't gonna happen. In other words...it's known in the "gas phase". Ok, let's go to the molecular orbital diagram: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MO_diag...ium_MO_diagram See... 1σg21σu22σg2. I rest my case. or the balonium/unobtainium ion exchange. People have tried the balonium/unobtainium ion exchange for years with no success. Contemporary thought now has scientists pinning their hopes on bull****ium/malarkium as a viable replacement. If you want a new battery to fly planes think carbon. I STILL haven't figured what kind of stuff you are smoking! Smoking causes herpes. I fly clear. --- Mark |
