Stealthy submarine with no rotating components could be developed with critical pump tech
A British fusion energy company is set to provide critical high-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnet technology to support a U.S. submarine program. Tokamak Energy has been contracted by General ...
To this end, the defence research organisation has launched the Principles of Undersea Magnetohydrodynamic Pumps (PUMP) programme, a 42-month effort aiming to build on the success of MHD at small ...
Electromagnetic pumps exploit the interaction between magnetic fields and conductive fluids to generate flow without moving mechanical parts. Designs range from conduction pumps, which impose an ...
Taking a plot point from the 1990 Sean Connery movie thriller The Hunt for Red October, DARPA is working on a super-silent submarine drive that has no moving parts and provides propulsion through the ...
DARPA is trying to use new more powerful superconducting magnets to triple the efficiency of a Magnetohydrodynamic drive for ultra-quiet navy ships. The PUMP program will develop an electrode material ...
Within the next 15 years, NASA, China, and SpaceX plan to send the first crewed missions to Mars. In all three cases, these missions are meant to culminate in the creation of surface habitats that ...
