Power to Volume;
Most important of all is having 25% higher volume power density (Figure 1)

Power to weight;
Weight half of the competing AIP technologies such Fuel Cell and Stirling (Figure 2).

Power production efficiency;
Other benefit is increased efficiency (resulting in increased electricity/power production for same thermal input) due to using sCO2 that provides extra 7 points compared to close challenger fuel cells (Figure 3).

Hizliresim have been hit hard with DDOS attack they stopped foreign IP from entering their website... Now no one but those in Turkey can see those pictures I have to reupload those images to another website now to promote Turkish goods

Its a power source for submarines.ıts called AIP (Air Independent Propulsion-Havadan Bağımsız İtki).Normal submarines can stay under water for 2 weeks.Every two weeks submarine have to go on surface.But with AIP system submarines can stay under water for 90 days like a nuclear submarine.

Wait, waaiiit. Let's get facts corrected.

...Normal submarines can stay under water for 2 weeks.Every two weeks submarine have to go on surface.

No way. A conventional sub, without AIP, can't stay submerged this long. Depending on the operational situation, e.g speed, can only stay submerged 3 or at max 4 days and afterwards will need a snorkelling.

...But with AIP system submarines can stay under water for 90 days like a nuclear submarine.

and a big NO again... The conventional submarines with known AIP systems can stay submerged 10 to 15 days depending on the type of AIP system and operational requirements, again.

Turkish Reis Class Type-214 submarine under building process can stay 2 weeks.

and a big NO again... The conventional submarines with known AIP systems can stay submerged 10 to 15 days depending on the type of AIP system and operational requirements, again.

90 days is max value of course it depend on what type of aip used

True, bcz. will have Fuell Cell AIP System.

....

NO. No such AIP system exists at the moment, at least i don't know. Will you be so kind to let us know which AIP system has this 90 days submergence figure?

Ahhh... That one. But it's still in R&D and development phase and there is no guarantie it'll be successfull (but, i hope it would) so, not counted for the existing ones. Thanks anyway..

Thank you for correcting me

You're always wellcome, have a nice day.

Position accuracy +- 0.01 mm = 10 microns? That is pretty awesome.

Makes one proud to see independent companies taking the initiative to put in the hard yards on r&d and bring out a end product like this above. Step by step, we are moving up to the league of the big players in engineering.

The Science Academy of Turkey Issues Statement on Freedom of Speech and Science

February 22, 2018


The Bilim Akademisi, the Turkish Science Academy, issued a statement noting its concerns on the growing restraints on freedom of speech and freedom of science presently in Turkey.

Their statement follows:

The Science Academy Statement on Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Science, February 2018

The Science Academy sees it necessary to publicly express once again its concerns on the growing restraints on freedom of science and on its sine qua non condition, the freedom of speech. We sadly observe that the problems we have previously pointed out1 regarding the freedom of speech are still present. The absence of any significant improvements, on the contrary, an increase in negative practices have turned the problem into a systematic issue.

As the Science Academy, we deem it necessary to underline once again the present legal situation which holds also under the state of emergency regime.

• Article 26 of the Turkish Constitution states that “Everyone has the right to express and disseminate his/her thoughts and opinions by speech, in writing or in pictures or through other media, individually or collectively.”2 According to Art. 15, cl. 2, this is a freedom that cannot be limited through any measure that violates the principle of proportionality and obligations enjoined by international law.
• As expressed by the Constitutional Court, “[…] freedom of speech, which is one of the pillars of the democratic society, is certainly valid not only for the situations considered favorable or innocuous or unworthy of attention, but also those which may be deemed negative, incorrect or disturbing by the state or some section of the society. Because such are the necessities of diversity, tolerance and open–mindedness present in a ‘democratic society’.3
• Again, according to the Constitutional Court, “As stated in the settled case-laws of the European Court of Human Rights, governments are obliged to tolerate even the harshest criticism towards themselves, because governments are the exercisers of the public force. A healthy democracy necessitates that a government is checked not only by the parliament and the judicial bodies but also by the other actors in the political arena, such as the non-governmental organizations, media or the political parties.4

”The full membership application of the Republic of Turkey to the European Union is still in process. The Progress Report of 2016 states as such: “In the past year, serious backsliding continued and gave rise to growing concern. Last year’s recommendations were not followed and can therefore be restated. Legislation and practice do not comply with ECtHR case-law. Freedom of expression has come under serious strain. Ongoing and new criminal cases against journalists, writers or social media users, withdrawal of accreditations as well as closure of or appointment of trustees to numerous media outlets are of serious concern. Selective and arbitrary application of the law, especially provisions on national security and the fight against terrorism, is having a negative impact on freedom of expression. The Internet Law and the general legal framework continue to enable the executive to block content without a court order on an unduly wide range of grounds.”5 It can be foreseen that the evaluation in the yet unpublished EU Progress Report 2017 shall be much worse. The expression of any opinion critical of the government’s present policies is now met with the charge of supporting terrorism, and this allegation itself is considered enough for the related persons to be detained or dismissed from their offices. It poses another serious problem that claims about faculty members being dismissed unjustly or because of their political view have not been subject to an efficient process of examination and evaluation so far.

Can we talk about any freedom of science where the freedom of speech is under such tremendous pressure? As it has been emphasized many times on previous announcements of the Science Academy, the freedom of speech is the foundation of the freedom of science; and it is the basic constituent of a libertarian and pluralistic society. This foundation is indispensable for all branches of science to freely form and teach scholarly views and knowledge, and to disseminate these through academic publications and by publicly expressing opinions. It is our responsibility to remember and remind that practices incompatible with a democratic society, limiting rights in an excessive or fundamental way, are violating both the Constitution of the Republic of Turkey and international conventions that we are a party to, including the European Convention on Human Rights.

Respectfully announced to the public,

The Science Academy Executive Board
13 February 2018
