re: Bioelectronics (Living Batteries)
>An average Torpedo ray puts out 50 amps at 50-60 volts, but a large one
may put out 200 volts.
Does it have a 20sec rating? How about a 1sec rating? Have you computed
the Peukerts #? How about the power/weight ratio for the various sizes?
Can the piles be removed, the rays donated to a zoo, and the piles
maintained in a special high saline feeding solution?
:-)
I could picture Paramore and Crabtree harnessing these creatures for
both their electrical and machanical power.
How much do they weigh? Could they be used in the 64 class, and if so,
Bill, how would they have to be secured?
