I'm not too surprised. I think she's got just the right amount of Osaka in her that she's innocent, but not clueless. Or was it the other way around?

I do like that she's got her own style of baka, different from Raven.

Pix or it never happened! :-D   It is however often possible to walk across Lake Eyre.


--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? on 25 Oct 2012, 12:43 ---Can you think of anything that beats water for specific heat? Let alone heat of vaporization?
--- End quote ---
Ammonia (NH3) has the highest specific heat capacity of any known substance. ;)  It's not as good as water for latent heat of vapourisation, but its convenient phase-change temperatures make it a very useful refrigerant.

Elderly nudists are the best nudists!

Is it cold in here?:
Ammonia, 4.7 J/g/K (yes, as Akima said, better than water. I was surprised.)
Helium, 5.2 J/g/K
Hydrogen, 14.3 J/g/K

That innocent-looking "per gram" conceals a really important practical issue. A gram of water, or of ammonia pressurized into the liquid phase, is spectacularly more compact than a gram of hydrogen or helium. A heat sink big enough to contact a gram of hydrogen would be much less convenient.

Now, if Momo is air cooled by default, she may have heat sinks mounted directly on electronic components, in which case her waterproofing would have to seal her air vents and not let water contact the heat sinks, and then we'd be back to the overheating problem.

Are we overanalyzing yet?

Method of Madness:
Not even close.
