Design blueprint derived from the source paper (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.24199668): This study sizes a Carbon Dioxide Electrolysis Unit for Oxygen Production on Venus for operation in the Venus surface environment and reports the result as SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED. The design is developed from stated physical relations and a shared environmental basis, and every performance figure is computed by the deposited script rather than asserted. Among the computed results are oxygen production target of 2.0 kilograms per day, average electrolysis current of 279.2 amperes, cell operating voltage of 1.35 volts, electrolysis power of 401 watts. Mass and power budgets are assembled from components so that they can be audited, off-design behaviour and materials uncertainty are discussed openly, and the limits of the sizing are stated in full. The system is a civilian science and construction design intended for a robotically serviced surface station. The principal computed results are venus pressure bar of 92.0; venus temperature k of 735.0; venus density kg m3 of 65.0; venus gravity m s2 of 8.87. Further results include venus solar day h of 2808.0; venus night h of 1404.0; oxygen target kg day of 2.0; average current a of 279.2. The design is a computed study for peaceful surface operations on Venus — power supply, thermal control, construction and resource handling for a surface station — and it has no targeting or weapon application. Status: DESIGN BLUEPRINT — SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED — NOT BUILT. All numbers are simulated values from the source paper's computation, deposited with this blueprint as compute.py and results.json.
