Re: Overheating CJ7, the story so far
 

3000 imperial gallons of normal water = 30,000 lb.
your gallon is less (3.8 instead of 4.55 litres), so that would be about
25,000lb
Deuterium has a molecular weight of 20 compared to H20s 18, which would make
it about 28,000 lb ; about 2/3rds of the weight of that 5,000 gallon tank
when full
or H20.

Re: Overheating CJ7, the story so far
 

All I know is, a pint's a pound the world around. EXCEPT, for this
heavy water used in the manufacturing of aluminum at the Alcoa plant a
little south of Dallas, Texas. I couldn't the number of hills between
there and the hazardous waste salt cavern at Galveston, there were none
going the other way.

Re: Overheating CJ7, the story so far
 

I never understood why the US went a different way on gallons -
1 imperial gallon of water weighs 10lb,
1 litre of water weighs 1 kg.
1 us gallon is 8 1/3rd lb

still, that must have been quite a trip, Bill !
