Yeah, A brass plate fitted to the hull would work
great... like a giant heat sink. Problem is the unit would have to be custom fit
for each hull. Which might not be a huge issue now that I think about it.
PSubbers are mostly all mechanicly inclined or know someone who is. I'm pretty
sure they could figure out how to fit a heat sink to the hull.
It wouldn't be anything more complex than a snaking
of brass/copper tubing over a copper plate that would have to be bolted and
formed to the inner hull salt water would probably go best with this,
should transfer heat a bit better.. plus not be as volatile as alchohol.
Although alchohol would still be better from a pure efficiency viewpoint. Then
again regular coolant would probably be more efficient... but that's not within
the constraints I'm envisioning this.
