Ladies and gentlemen, according to the media, america has a blood pressure problem. I say no. We have a blood pressure surplus.
Suppose we assume the average american is 50 mmhg over the ideal systolic blood pressure.
Suppose that the average american contains 6 liters of blood.
According to bernoullis
Equation for incompressible fluids, if we can harvest that pressure with perfect efficiency, we can access 40 megajoules per
Person.
That's 12 billion mega-joules of american energy enough to launch ten million kilograms to space!
Think about it - why would the government fund vast
Public health campaigns to try to make us diet and exercise unless they had a compelling
Reason/d
They're not protecting our health/ they're
Citizens! Every time we increase our average surplus blood pressure ten percent we gain a ballistic cannon to space!
Protecting their space combat
Advantage!
How would you harvest any of that energy let alone all of it.2
In closing an idealized model is always a good
Starting point.
