Carbon Tax Repeal

[Chard]

None of this has anything to do with the actual topic of course... can I suggest don't feed the dumbarse troll.

But it's wholesome entertainment to wind up a free-energy wanker, man.

Winds ups make another angry to pleasure the poster.
However to date you have only succeeded in demonstrating you are a liar with extremely low intellectual capabilities.

You not repeat your post Steam the most efficient, now why is that?

I don't have to, asshole. You're the one claiming CO2 is a better alternative, despite it being explained to you why this is not the case. It's up to you to prove your claim, snapperhead.

According to you Steam is the most efficient because it has 200 bar pressure at +600*C and CO2 is less efficient because it has the same pressure at only +50*C.

What power generation system out there operates at 50C? Originally we were talking about a nuclear power plant, and there isn't a BWR or PWR design out there that operates anywhere near that low a temp. You can't use CO2 in either the reactor side or the generator side of the heat exchange system because of that (never mind the issues of CO2 being a shitty neutron moderator which rules it out completely as a reactor coolant). Than there's the issues with CO2 easilly displacing atmospheric oxygen, to a leak in the system is much more difficult to isolate and repair simply because of increased health hazards.

Steam is not charted above +600*C but CO2 at +100*C (the boiling point of water) is charted 10,000 bar.

At 100C and 10Kbar CO2 is a non-Newtonian superfluid, you fucking idiot.

Gollee such inefficiency of CO2 and only you noticed!

Is your use of the term "efficiency" going to be a repeat of your failure to understand what "average" means?

Stay out of Coles Supermarkets, their CO2 refrigeration mechanics poses great risk to your mind!

Hint*** Chard is an American. I don't think they have Coles over there (or even our Australian Woolworths).

OH BUGGER!

OH BUGGER!

Change of tact needed. They have an entirely different "voltage" over in the USA, don't they? No idea how that figures but ....... I'm sure you will find a way.

Just checked.

Australia 240V - 50 Hz
USA 120V - 60Hz

Voltage and hertz make no difference. The turbine remains the same!
The wattage is that of the turbine not the generator attached.
In the US I think they still go by horsepower?

I have no clue. I am not an Electrical Engineer.

Do you know how glass was discovered?

Using CO2 as a refridgerent and using it in the heat exchange of a nuclear reactor are two complety different concepts, you fucking idiot.
