Notes
- Single cell thunderstorms are 1e15 Joules (multicell more, superstorm much more!) - use that for comparison, not atomic bomb.
- 16 million of all types per year, 100K in US, 10% severe
- find reference!
CAPE (Convective Available Potential Energy) 1500 J/kg, 100 kPa -> 1e4 kg/m2, half -> 5e3 kg/m2, 10km x 10 km = 7.5e14 J
- Power extraction - compression wave with downstream tension wave, depends on speed of sound
- Iron magnetics, Kevlar tension member, carbon coating in launch loop rotor
- Iron magnetics, carbon coating in power loop rotor
- Pisacane, carbon sputter yield is low at 1000 eV, trace references and software
