Read this,
it is very interesting !
It also tells you, what the FED is doing to you !

I've worked on nuclear subs. The questions posed on this site http://www.worldslaves.citymax.com/page/page/1769161.htm about the subs shows his ignorance about them. See my post about homemade nuclear reactors. One of the criteria of learning to run a nuke power plant such as these was to know how they had to be built to work and the difference between a reactor setup and a bomb. The reason I point this out about the above page is that it takes his credibility down a notch or two and makes you wonder about the other things he talks about. Fluoride isn't good.... and swallowing the story of pretty teeth is absurd. Chlorine is cheaper and eventually evaporates from the system with a good enough bacteria kill to give a standard coliform test a clean zero. It even works in municipal wastewater systems which is thousands of times more polluted than the reservoirs. Go figure....

Kenbo,
Not many people know this but a reactor can be designed to produce high voltage direct electricity instead of heat. This eliminates the ineffficiency of the steam/turbine process that wastes energy.

Bruce,
Would this be that thing that you are keeping to yourself for now or do you have any links to references?
Kysmett,
No, it is not the thing that I have been keeping to myself. It is an old Dec. 27, 1955 patent.
It is titled "Generation of Power" U.S. Patent No. 2,728,867 - http://www.tinyurl.com/4zkvm
I used this example in one of my lectures.

Bruce,
I've heard of this....? Is it thermocoupling or free electrons from the process of fission? ???

Just read that patent Bruce. Thanks for the link. I wonder, though, how much heat in the nuclear reactor is actually caused by beta particle emmissions as a percentage. It talks about beta collection and alpha degradation throught the insulating layers, but nothing about heat in any other way. Is he saying that a reactor properly configured in this manner would run cool? If not do we have the materials that could stand up to that kind of heat without the need for cooling?
Thoughts only... do you have any further insight in this or is this irrelevent when compared to the production of voltage between the conductors and the rods?
Kysmett,
Column two of the patents indicates... "beta rays may be conducted externally of the neutronic reactor tthrough terminals as electrical energy rather being dissipated in the form of heat energy in the reactor." However, you are correct, the patent doesn't further elaborate on the heat generated from the alphas, etc... Do the thermal neutrons generate heat or not? I would think that a small fission battery could be designed using a cold neutron source that would not generated too much heat.
-Bruce P.
My only problem with this is the relativistic way in which we view heat in reactors, when compared with our normal lives. Is not too much heat still more than, say, what occurs in a combusion engine? I don't mean to be a pain, just looking at the possibilities.
All of the satellite power sources used or currently use that method to generate power from nuclear reactions, because of anti-nuclear activist worries about a possible explosion releasing radioactive debris from a failed space mission. NASA has looked at storing power in high speed super efficient flywheels and permanent magnet dc generators to siphon off power from the flywheel.
