Has anyone told Haydn?

Hmm.

<<PDX is a pump, a mixer, a heater and a macerator. It can be used to transport fluids with high solids content, entrain different materials, heat ingredients or blend recipes. It is a revolution in fluids handling and processing>>

If it's a macerator, perhaps it's time to say "Goodbye" to exploding toilet misery?

It's a fancy eductor/ejector, a spiffy thermodynamic pumping device which, if you read between the small print, requires a source of steam. Whether wet or superheated, I know I wouldn't want to be anywhere near a steam system installed by your average boatyard fitter. High pressure steam is dangerous kids, so don't try this at home.

Its going to require a nuclear reactor to generate enough power to propell a tinker tramp up to 100kts ph isnt it? ))

I can see the Governments getting interested in this. Just imagine all the stokers needed for all the stinkies.... in the engine bay/room with a shovel and a heap of coal. TCM alone could probably employ 8

Course they are - but this gadget isn't the answer (although I like the idea of a supersonic shockwave down the toilet).

What you need is:

2 copper strips down the length of the hull
and a very large magnet in the bottom of the boat. - Maybe electromagnet

Apply lots of volts to the copper strips so large lecky current flows between them

Turn on electromagnet (forget ordinary magnet)

So you have an electric current flowing this way through sea water
and a magnetic field going that way.

So acording to Mr Faraday's left (or right) hand rule you will get motion of the conductor the other way.

So water shoots backward which acording to Mr Newton means boat will shoot forward.

Magic -

No moving parts (except perhaps bloody big generator)
Nothing to get twisted up in nets, ropes etc.

Further development could be to twiddle magnetic field a bit so instead of going that way it goes t'other way which will send water squirting sideways - like a combined bow and stern thruster.

Also could have little magnet thingys at back like sort of deflector plates so as to squirt backwards and across a bit - so no rudder.

Who needs steam?
