    Indeed, its why I mentioned proper fighting chance rather than any guarantee. Things have to be put in practice. From the onset if you start with demagoguery though (and exploiting the broader sociological means that sustain such things like Merzifonlu has mentioned), it can get baked in a very...

    If we are to take a TH of 1500 C (1773 K) for F110 and assume TC of say 300 K. We get Carnot efficiency of 1 - (300/1773) = 0.83 For a TH of 1200 C(1473 K) Carnot efficiency would be 1 - (300/1473) = 0.8 We can assume the actual thermal efficiency (somewhere in 30 - 40% vicinity) faces a...

    Its alright my friend. Glad to meet your acquaintance. My ire is only towards those that wronged me and some others, quite needlessly and unfairly. Never the entirety of some place, it would be like judging entirety of a country on a few bad apples (who have been good apples to others, it is...

    btw, in the "internal affairs section" (where this coffee thread is), feel free to start some new threads for major categories you would like to see. Indian cuisine and other major endeavours you were mentioning elsewhere....if you feel a separate thread to coffee thread is warranted. If they...

    If you think about it, all it is is matter of provisioning extra fuel in the mission for two more burns (to leave lunar orbit and then to enter into earth orbit). Edit, looks like tweet got deleted, maybe replace with another one about the orbit change news marlii.

    Heh, it had nothing to do with my antics with the Bongs at all. I played devils advocate on number of issues to get a rise out of people (yes in stupid fashion a number of times - but that was always openly shown to be par for the course there). Those that knew me better, could see through it...

    Hello there, welcome to the forum. Don't know who you are (maybe you joined just around the time the Turks and I were kicked out of the place) or what selective reel you've been given on what happened and the precise set of sociopaths involved (running that place selectively) that gave zero...

    Yes, that is more or less accurate. The higher the temperature a turbine can process, holding everything else the same, you increase the Tout - Tin that marks the basic carnot efficiency (1 - Tin/Tout). Means you can either get higher thrust for each input, or get lower input (better fuel...

    Some say quantity has a quality of its own. I am of reverse opinion, that quality has a quantity of its own. If you keep quality high, there is much more quantity that actually permeates into heads that matter in meaningful way. Quality assurance also helps cultivate more quality quantity wise...

    Well you have to look at the specific RnD of 3d printing for something this size (though same happens with forging too, but production rate is just not a chokepoint issue). To achieve a certain QC, they can be incredibly slow and there is also the post-process finishing that might be needed and...

    In case folks assume HIP is same as mechanical conventional forges (hot or cold), they are actually pretty different. They utilize pressured gas (normally non-reactive Argon), normally in range of 50 - 200 MPa though I have seen some come to 300 MPa as well, all with a heating element as you...
