[PSUBS-MAILIST] Information Motherload
Hey guys, I was just looking through the PSU web site for the vortex
propulsion system, and I found a site that I have just got to share with you
all. I haven't even visited a small fraction of these sites, but the ones I
did visit were great. In fact I'll probably be spending significant follow
up time on these for my propulsion system. A side note: did you know that
the MK-50 torpedo weighs 750lbs, carries a 100 lb shaped charge, and can
operate at speeds of 40+ mph. It currently uses propulsion technology
developed at PSU I believe. Additionally, the vortex combustor that I
mentioned to many of you earlier uses alluminum powder and sea water in a
vortex combustor to generate propulsive force. OK, so Nemo's going to put a
350CID internal combustion engine in his sub to compete in a 1/4 mile
underwater race. If I can get my hands on the information from some of these
sources, I'll beat the pants off of him. Unfortunately, all they want to do
is give me the general specs on some of these systems. I wonder whether they
are confidential or whether they want to see green ($$$)???
