Think of it as similar to hi compression automobile engine (race car) being more efficient vs a low compression engine (tractor engine). Not exactly correct but a way of starting to think about it

I worked on this drive. It's a 3.5 drive. A long time ago. Time for my daily nap and Centrum shot.

I once got to visit a jewelry manufacturing site where to get in and out you had to go through an MRI to ensure you didn't pick any gold or platinum dust on the tour. There were pallets of gold lying on the floor worth about 200 millio

How does one extract power if it barely warms up? Does it generate electricity directly?

My guess is the 460 has direct injection fuel system which allows for higher compression from charge cooling so more efficiency (~8%?).

Why not use nuclear for decarbonizing the atmosphere and for production of liquid hydrocarbons for industrial uses when the wind is blowing and sun is shining and when the renewable are not available use nuclear for base loads?

One of the reasons to use quantum gyroscopes is that will be accurate to within 1m or so after a day long underwater traverse of 1000 km or more. Communication while fully under still sucks though.

We use to race here in CO (which gets hot but not as hot as Texas admittedly) by dipping our Nomex suits in ice water and racing with ice bags in the suit that leaked so two cooling mechanisms in action. Works for 45 mins. It was great to g
