Subject: [AR] Re: exothermic heating of water
About 25 years ago, Tom Pickens(?) flew a fair-sized steam rocket at the first
Tripoli launch I attended. Electrically heated. It was at an away pad, so
when he launched it there was a huge white cloud but was almost silent (at that
distance).
If memory serves, the water was heated and pressure built up by electrolysis.
If that's correct, it's no wonder that the thing was far away. Stoichiometric
mix of hydrogen and oxygen gases under high pressure and elevated temperature...
