Thanks, that makes a lot of sense
There were a number of BBC scifi shows that used similar set pieces
Yes, I was torn by the disparity between the excellent rendered visuals, moon base, shuttles, and practical ideas of inhabiting the moon; and the complete lack of constraint to reality with the idea that a nuclear fuel storage facility could generate enough thrust to push the moon not only out of Earth orbit, but clear into different solar systems
That said, I used to eat dinner watching it due to show times, and imagined myself working on the moon some day. I had never considered it was being used to propagandize against nuclear energy
oh I guess I really hadn't thought about heating needs. The batteries generate heat when being charged or discharged so I was just assuming they never really would need external heating.
I live in Iowa, and I've heard some pretty brutal accounts of bad EV performance when it gets really cold here. All rechargeable batteries perform poorly in the cold though, I remember NiCD batteries being absolutely terrible in the cold.
Market consolidation and monopolies are an inevitable outcome of Capitalism, that is why capitalism is regulated in America
Those who chafe at the idea of being limited in that fashion, have worked over the last 80 years to subvert this regulation (and the taxation that goes with it), and convince the American people that Starve the Beast is the only thing that will make them truly free
The BIG LIE is that the Beast (US Government) is the only thing keeping them from being proles
It's never a war crime the first time, let them get a hearing at the Hauge first
incorporate advanced refrigerant-based and liquid cooling circuits
That's nothing new, AFAIK, all EVs already do this.
75kW is a lot of heat. Think about the heat from a 100w light bulb (99% of which is heat) Now stack 750 of them and feel the sun!
Also, this car isn't flying down the freeway, forcing massive amounts of air through the radiator to cool it. This one's parked, and only has the forced airflow of the radiator's fan to keep it from melting into goo.
But that 75kW is talking about the charger, which may be able to handle more than one vehicle, or larger vehicles like EV trucks and busses, so the number is likely a lot smaller for the average EV car. But still, lotta heat!
Usually rapid chargers produce quite a bit of heat in the battery, how are they managing this?
I assume the EV stays turned on and runs a cooling loop and blasts hot air out a radiator somewhere, but even that has to have its limits?
By your powers combined, I am... the British Colonies!
