extra neutrals as heat sinks?

[kimbo]

i've heard recently that placing an extra neutal plate outside the outermost drivers seems to aid cooling. why?

Maybe, but why would you need that if the reactor is built right there is no unwanted heat. Some heat is necessary and beneficial. It is the excess heat of a poorly designed reactor that causes the problem.

It is also said that high heat reactors make para-hydrogen, while low heat reactors produce ortho-hydrogen, the preferred hydrogen, and that is what we want.

Roland, I'd be interested in reading that one... Got a link handy?

Excellent post Kimbo. Bio I sent you a patent that deals with this too. The temperature is extreme to make any significant difference though. The use of magnets to change the spin that is what is important. A cooler running reactor to a point is always better but there is a point where it becomes inefficient the cooler it gets and also the opposite the hotter it gets. There is an optimum or ideal temperature for a reactor and varies because of a number of variables and so is different for almost every reactor. Even things like altitude effect it.

...glad someone understands all that stuff!

Thanks for the link Kimbo...

[BioFarmer93]

OOOOooooohhhhh YEEeeaaahhhh, Got one- thanks....

[kimbo]

hey bio farmer.... wht is that great looking pic you use as your tag? and have you got a link to a blow up of it?

[lhazleton]

Kimbo,
The photo Gus uses is one he shot from his home planet before moving here...;)

[BioFarmer93]

Nah-nah nahw SON! Don't MAKE me waste these here frequent flyer miles I done saved up just to use the rest of a stale half empty canowhoopass on a scrawny yankee-boy!:p

-besides, you can't even SEE earth from my home planet.....

i have done dry cells with cooling fins for hot countries

It was in George Wiseman's book on browns gas forgot if it's his 1st or 2nd book. I believe it was also mentioned by Boyce.
