Efficiency?[edit]
I read the three external links, but nobody states anything about efficiency. If I understand it well, the Magnesium is only a medium - all the energy is taken from solar panels, which supply the laser which isolates the Magnesium from its oxide. So the question: is the overall efficiency greater or lower compared with an electric engine supplied from a battery charged by solar panels? Consider that the Magnesium injection cycle also requires water to run... and lasers... Aldoaldoz (talk) 14:30, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
How does it work ?[edit]
There's a discussion on the French Wikipedia talk page about this, because it's not clear whether the reaction only involves water and Mg, which would be too slow a reaction. Then I found this : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flameless_ration_heater . Could it work the same way ? Elpiaf (talk) 15:22, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
