But in this case, we want the elephant to (significantly) bleed out, so won’t we need a BIG needle?
If you want to move lots of heat away fast, you either need a big pipe or a very high flow rate.
“Gas-rich”, to me, also sounds as if it would be more dangerous.
- habinero 3y agoIn this analogy, the needle is as big as we can make it. Gas-rich is where the danger is, as I understand it. Those gasses expand as they get closer to the surface, and if they're trapped in viscous magma that doesn't flow easily and puts a lot of stress on the rocks above. The fluid basaltic lavas of Hawaii don't explode, they flow out and make shield volcanos. Check out geologist Shawn Wilsey's videos.
