   From www.geekologie.com, I presume?

   It’s much funnier with the original article.

   ____________________________________________
   Apparently suspended ceilings are popular in Russia because upstairs neighbors have a penchant for getting drunk and leaving the bathtub running all night.

   In Russia suspended ceiling is not only a stylish element of the flat interior, it can simply save your dwelling from flood made by the careless neighbors living above. Like in this case the practice shows that it is able to gather and hold all the water. Now the question is how to pour it off safely. But just imagine you wake up one morning and your ceilings look like this!

   If I woke up one morning and my ceiling looked like that I’d think, “damn, I got a sexy fuckin’ ceiling.” And then, if nobody was around, I might do some light to moderate fondling. Just kidding, I don’t care who sees.

Magnetic Air Car

Posted in Images on October 24th, 2008 by Phyreblade | Report This Post | Click to Add to favorites
Tags: Cars, Science!, WTF |

A new take on an old idea. An air powered car, with an on board compressor turned initially, by a magnetic motor powered by a high endurance, high efficiency automotive battery, and in steady state, by recycled compressed air.

Individually, all of these components, air powered cars, compressors, etc., already exist. Combine them with a little “Secret Sauce” and you get… The magnetic air car.

So far so good. Except for one thing. They claim that once in motion, you will get an *unlimited* driving range out of their combination. Supposedly without somehow violating the laws of physics.

Personally, I can see the potential for an extremely efficient system here, but *UNLIMITED* driving range? Unless that secret sauce is pixie dust or something, I’ll believe it when I see it.

   @Darthmalt,

   No mention of hybrid capacity, how would they store the energy (a flywheel would work, I suppose)?

   I’m guessing it is simply efficient, and the “unlimited” is simply marketing hype (“it’s range is unlimited… as long as you keep refueling”).

   But seriously, a car that candy is an expensive toy. It HAS to be high performance. Douches with too much money expect no less. I’m guessing it gets 20 mpg.

   @Darthmalt:They claim primary source of power is supposedly air, not electricity, so I think regenerative braking would be only of ancillary benefit, but even if it were purely electric, that would still not net them enough power to become self sustaining…

   @WistfulD: They don’t claim to be designing a hybrid, this is a purely air powered vehicle. No gasoline whatsoever. The energy storage mediums would have to be compressed air reservoirs and capacitors.

   And saying “unlimited” when they mean “extended” is kind of lame. Why start out the gate with a blatant lie? Obviously people are going to know the difference, and may be quite peeved when they run out of “gas” (literally) in the middle of nowhere…

    I think many of you misunderstand something…

    The scientific principal that dictates that perpetual motion is impossible actually states that you cannot sustain motion without an infusion of outside energy.

    As the vehicle moves, it collects a new source of fuel. It is essentially a ram scoop, which has been a valid scientific concept since long before it became even remotely viable.

    Since it is constantly taking in new fuel, this vehicle does not defy the principal of perpetual motion being impossible. It will continue moving only by infusion of new energy, and regular maintenance.

    (I know I’m a year and a half late for the debate… But in case anybody else stumbles in here.)

   Okay, befor you get all crazy American culture on me.. Harley-Davidsons “were” bad-ass back in the day.. Now they build some pretty crapy stuff- by crapy i mean “defective”. The market is directed towards rich doctors and lawyers -so now they build them to be broken. Without oil expect to burn your motor in 4 miles. Brakes suck- suspension sucks(ever follow one?-watch it weave around on the road)- the weight is top heavy- and wtf are you listening to a radio for? If none of this matters to you and you can afford repairs- then have fun with one. BUT- if you care about performance, strength, durabilty, even comfort- there are much better bikes for the same price. If your into the history and craftsmenship about motorcycles today- get an Indian. (i ride a honda and worked for harley 5yrs)

In Ascending order:
1. The London “Millennium” Eye – 443Ft/Mar 2000 (Off center A-Frame)
2. The Star of Nanchang – 525Ft/Apr 2006
3. The Great Wheel of Berlin – 607Ft/2009
4. Dubai Wheel – 607ft(or larger)/2009
5. Great Wheel of China – 684Ft/2009

Not shown:
6. Great Orlando Wheel – 400ft/2010
7. Singapore Flyer – 541Ft/Mar 2008

The final Dubai wheel size is currently still up in the air, since they may go for a 686Ft wheel just to outdo the Great China wheel… Typical Dubai…

   But you do have to give them props on the way they spend money. They are actually being very smart. Rather than rely on oil, they are investing significant amounts of that money into becoming a premium tourist spot, and creating tons of jobs in the process.

   At the rate they are going, (assuming they keep it up) I daresay they will be able to sustain the country entirely off the tourism even after all of their oil wells run dry…

    @Cplus3: I did watch that, it was interesting and irritating at the same time. Greed is an ugly thing.

    But I also believe that we are at the point where there are a lot of independents who can see the potential, and are really interested in advancing electric technologies to consumer levels.

    Once it gets cheap enough, the big car/big oil will soon no longer be able to strangle it, because a gazillion independents will want in on the ground floor.

    There are just soo many advantages, and the technology is almost primetime, I think it will soon become impossible to kill, no matter how hard they try. They will have no choice but to jump on the bandwagon.

    I can already see it happening…

Project Orion

AKA the worst rocket idea EVAR.

Project Orion was a NASA “Nucular” rocket propulsion system from the 1950s. Except that nuclear powered, in this instance means nuclear BOMB powered.

The Orion rocket was essentially a nuclear pulse rocket designed to use a series of controlled/directed nuclear detonations for propulsion.

Nuclear reactions are some of the most energetic for any given mass of fuel, and could technically be an ideal energy source for high endurance, long range, space flight applications.

However, used in this fashion, it comes at the cost of some rather horrific radiation related side effects. The movie on the sauce page, give a little humorous insight about the problems, crew member radiation levels, eyeburn etc…

And that doesn’t even cover the environmental effects that a number of sequential, high yield nuclear explosions might occur at ground level after the fact… *shiver* But I suppose it would be better than the entire planet getting destroyed…

   “environmental effects that a number of sequential, high yield nuclear explosions might occur at ground level after the fact…”

   Or you could build in orbit, use chemical rockets to get to a higher orbit, and then light off the pulse drive.
   Orion would be a great way to mine the asteroid belt, and get rid of those newkluler bombs so many are so very afraid of.
   “Sauce” contains an epic fail as well, equating the nuclear pulse drive with a nuclear powered ramjet. Entirely different concepts, sharing only the scary word “nuclear”. Well, that and “propulsion”, I suppose.

   Imagine an automated Orion spacecraft launching from lunar orbit and surveying the asteroids. Imagine the next generation of Orion probes using that data and sending the valuable asteroids back to a more convenient orbit for mining.

   Certainly not the worst idea EVAR … more like a visionary design waiting for an application.

   @bfd:
   I’ll grant you that building an Orion in orbit would certainly resolve the ground level radiation problem (though it is rather disturbing that all of the illustrations show only ground based launch platforms).

   However the other thing that bugs me is the mentality that nuclear waste is something we can just chuck “somewhere else” and not worry about it. Radiation is radiation, whether it is on earth or in space.

   The same applies for nuclear waste. We have seen, first hand, the kinds of environmental problems it causes, when dumped locally. And we know even less about deep space that we do about or own environment. Knowing this, it seems grossly irresponsible for us to continue that unhealthy trend in space.

   Besides the obvious disregard for the planet side effects, that is why I think this program phails. It would only make sense if was the only way to prevent the destruction of the planet in it’s entirety.

   The source page does also show a nuclear powered ramjet, though I didn’t get the impression they were equating the two, just attempting to list other forms of nuclear based interstellar propulsion…

   Worst idea evar? More like BEST idea evar! Possibly not the best idea for near-Earth travel, but space is big. Really, really, really big. You set off a nuclear bomb in the depths of space, all those lil radioactive particles go flying off at ridiculous speeds, and with nothing to “stick” to, and no gravity well keeping ’em down, it wouldn’t take very long for the radiation from the bomb to have dispersed to a level that it would be indistinguishable from background radiation.

   The “horrific environmental effects” are highly overrated. Ted Taylor and Freeman Dyson calculated the that the world-wide cancer rate would go up by one for every launch of an Orion craft.
   The proposed Orion craft was HUGE. Approximately the size of aircraft carrier. It would have been capable of reaching any planet in the Solar system within a few months, as opposed to chemical rockets that take 18 months just to get to Mars.
   Everyone should read The Orion Project by George Dyson and quit pissing their pants every time they hear the word “radiation”.

   @AgZed: True that. “BAD” words are what hold science back. “IF” this was build in space it could use solorwind to get far enough from our system to light them off BUT people don’t realize that “Empty space” is FULL of BAD radiation. Spliting an atom for energy is what the stars do. hello? did i lose anyone- the sun is NUCLEAR. The sun emits TONS of radiation every second.. what is a tiny blast in nowhere going to do?

   The line drawing was from a sci-fi book written in the 80s called “Footfall”. Basically, the earth is being attacked by genetically engineered elephants that aliens took from earth thousand of years before (they “elephants” were intelligent but without creativity). Orion is the story was humanities only great attempt to fight bon ack at their giant orbiting ship, but had to built and launched from the ground under cover to keep from being attacked. Better good science was written into the story, not a bad book at all.

   First and foremost, this was not really a specific “project” so much as a number of related plans, ideas, half-baked schemes, and partially worked out ideas all based around the idea of using nuclear detonation based thrust (a useful distinction, since nuclear rockets using fusion or fission as a energy/heat source also exist, and in the case of nuclear battery powered un-manned craft, have already been launched). Some of them are far more preposterous than others. Let’s remember that during that time, some really zany ideas made it onto discussion tables within the U.S. government. I remember hearing about people suggesting artificial harbors be carved into the Alaska landscape using atom bombs, but like Orion, never got beyond the storyboard phase.

   As to whether Orion is a good idea or a bad idea, there are at least two obvious facts. One) a hypermassive, Earth-launched, Saturn-bound craft with 14-20 crew was a pipe dream from the get go, had ramifications the designers never thought of, and would never work. On the other end, since controlled fusion power and antimatter have not exactly become efficient technologies like our most optimistic science fictionists had hoped, the orion drive (or a preposed updated “nuclear pulse drive,” which used more frequent, but smaller nuclear explosions much closer to the ship, capturing more of the resultant energy) is the only likely way we will ever have any kind of interstellar transportation. This is because it is the only rocket technology that has a hope of producing the total thrust per pound of fuel required to get to another star within even a century.

   Hopefully the human race will live long enough that eventually a mission might happen where an Orion engine powered mission will be launched (probably from orbit around Jupiter), and head towards the stars. Myself, I’m going to read some Arthur C. Clarke and hope that we don’t destroy ourselves before we get to Mars.

    @reboot: The world wide cancer rate would increases by one? I have a hard time buying that.

    Both Taylor and Dyson were *for* the idea long before they actually did any calculations about it’s feasibility and/or effects.

    People who want something to work often subconsciously skew their own research to make it look better.

    And most importantly, looking back at the fully documented, long term effects of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, there is a whole lot of physical, practical and measurable evidence that would indicate otherwise.

    I am not a scientific fear monger. I fully believe that fear of what *might* happen should never be a reason not to experiment with new and sometimes dangerous things.

    However I’m not a blind follower of scientific experimentation for the sake of scientific progress either. There are consequences, positive and negative to every action.

    And I believe every scientist has an obligation to weigh the consequences, and act not in terms of scientific advancement, but in human advancement. There is a big difference between the two.

    In this case, we have volumes and volumes of easily verifiable evidence that contradicts Taylor/Dysons estimation, including and far beyond just cancer rates, and any honest scientist will tell you that calculated theory has nothing on observed reality…

    Where on earth did you get the crap about genetically engineered elephants? The Fithp in Footfall are common-or-garden aliens; there is a plot-engine that comes from the fact that they are herd animals; they look similar to elephants but with multiply-branching trunks which they use like a pair of hands; but they do not have a Terran origin.

    That’s gotta be the most douche-like thing I’ve ever seen on a car, even worse than spinners or large rims on an old Impala.

    Spike strip kryptonite. Or, how about some sparkly 4WD doughnuts. The possibilities are endless.

An extremely efficient fractal based radiator design inspired by the Peano space filling curve. While the design is probably very efficient in terms of transferring heat to the surrounding air via conduction, compared to traditional radiator designs, I get the feeling it may not be quite as effective at providing radiant heat, as the vast majority of it’s surface area is obscured by it’s own convolutions…

   This would’ve made for a MUCH more interesting Star Trek Borg cube design.

   So what you’re saying is that I should use this in my water-cooling system?

   Cool design, but not paragraph is seriously confused about thermodynamics. These wouldn’t be efficient at heat transfer in any sense.

   reboot, I’m a little rusty, but this seems to be designed to have the greatest surface-area per volume contact (at least for a given tube radius) with air. Now, granted, if there was no air flow it’d be extremely bad, but it seems to me if you just put a fan behind it it would very effectively generate warm air.

   @ieattime20: If you have a fan it would be better, because then you are actually using convection, moving hot air way and moving in cool air. But air flow through that is going to be poor compared to a conventional liquid, cooled heat sink. It’s an issue of laminar vs. turbulent flow. The surface-area per volume isn’t maximizes at all; a coil with the same length of tubing would be much more effective.

   I think for a given tube size this still maxes surf. area to volume, given that’s sort of what the Peano Curve is all about (just imagine a given length of coil, but unwind one of the turns and stick it through the middle; now the ‘underside’ of the coil isn’t touching other coil and instead touches air).

   But you’re definitely right now that I think about it about the air flow; the coil has simple, non-chaotic airflow through it, ensuring efficient convection, while the Peano radiator goes all nuts.

   …Kinda makes you almost wish for a screaming match instead, doesn’t it? Tonight, on MCS: Thermo- and fluid dynamics!

   @reboot: I agree with most of the other who have posted here. For a tube of any given diameter, this is designed to maximize the surface area that can be presented to the surrounding air, for any given space.

   So from a pure surface area per given volume perspective, it should provide very good conductive heat dissipation. However from a practical perspective, I think you would need to force air through it in order to fully reap the efficiencies of the additional surface area it provides.

    That shit is tiny! You could fit at least 6 of those in the same space as 1 average sized radiator and it would probably be only 1/10 the wait. Along with its other efficiencies, this thing kicks the radiators ass.

    @Phyreblade: The problem is that without forcing air (or some other cooling fluid) through this, the interior will reach thermal equilibrium and stop transferring any heat. If you scale this up beyond a few inches, it won’t have anymore cooling efficiency than a lumpy box. There is a reason why heat exchange systems aren’t just thrown in a knot like christmas lights.
    And as I and ieattime20 have already discussed, the efficiency of the fluid flow around the tubing will be less than conventional designs.
    Its a neat design, but there’s no efficiency gain.
