![]() How much power is there in ths air mass known as an huricane? Assuming that the only cause of a system like that developing is the sea temperature and the lack of crosswinds. The dynamics of the system can and have been measured from their fall out. To dump thousands of tons of water they need to pick up thousands of tons of water. Having picked up thousands of tons of water, the adiabatics take it to the extreme. I assume that at the top of the clouds the heat is dissipated to the place it came from originally: The stars. For when it falls back as ice and whatever, the overall effect is that the sea temperatures return to "normal" and can be five degrees cooler than they were before the storm. But there is a sliding scale of diminishing returns with them, as these systems are not stationary. What is the heat cost or energy value to the system to do all the above on the move. |
