Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] H2O2 combustion chamber



Pete, sorry , i did not mean to insult you, but to me peroxyde is rocket
making, not subs you are dealing basically with an explosive and a very
corrosive material.
peroxyde was a direct cause of multiple deaths in subs.
so i dont understand why the trouble when the futur in mini subs is
somewhere else.
murphy' law : if something bad can happen it will!!
Right now the most advanced studies by navies in mini subs propulsion are on
how to produce  or store O2  in large amount in a mini sub so it can feed
fuel cells.
it is safe, very powerfull , expensive though but probalbly the next step in
mini subs not powered by a nuclear reactor.
peroxyde should be limited to unmanned vehicles like torpedoes which have
severe power choice requirements anyways
