Large clouds of hot, salt water steam would be an annoyance (at a minimum) to the deck crew. It would also be a highly corrosive material that could serious complicate maintenance of both ship and aircraft. Use of fresh water would likely be an excessive demand on the evaporators. The piping of cooling water suggested earlier would be a better idea. It would likely be cheaper that major modifications such as a "ski jump" and permit the continued use of the vertical capability of the aircraft. A water cooled heatsink built into a part of the deck designated for "hot" aircraft makes a lot of sense. You could have a place underneath to stash beer, like the old sub- mariners did. In electronics, we have similiar problems, we usually solve using Al heat sinks, fan air cooled, as the cheapest. Screw a few Al heat sinks to the bottom of the locations of the deck permited to take the heat and engage any fluid to cool it, even water if space is tight, yawn. Ken Pray tell, young Skywalker, what type of electronics have you designed that has a few thousands pounds of metal land on it, controlled by a navel aviatrix, blasting used JP4 and other noxious and profane gasses as high speeds and easily a thousand degrees of the Farenheits? I'm getting a case of beer and a lot of popcorn, this is going to be a good one. Note to Wiki: another cite for the 'Why do EE degrees have a BS in front of them....' Frank, note you've replied to me 3 times, somewhat sarcastically on a topic that is borderline boring for most, but I own a patent on a 'new and improved' woodstove, so I have an extra interest and specialized knowledge on the subject, so I find the problem intriguing, About "degrees", and "diploma's" mine are buried somewhere in archives, rusting away. Ken Great, now post a link to that patent. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired Patents are those legal things that get tossed into archives, to be forgotten about, but your request is interesting, do they put that online |?| I'll check. C-dyn is old school and for transactions use snail-mail contracts, for example today we received an order in the mail via snail, from Vermont, that was posted Nov.30., for customized electro gEAR. I'm thinking of complaining about the snail-mail speed. Recently, I received 1st class Air-mail products from Indiana, it took 10 (f**king) days to hit our box. If anyone is interested in an experiment, I'll send you an Xmas card, we can do addresses via email, but mine is hEAR, http://www.trak4.com/earco/index.html so mail us a card. Love & Kisses Lynne & Ken |
