[Vo]:Change in the air
Since the publication of the Rossi independent third party report on the ecat, I have noticed a distinct change in the attacks on Rossi and in more to the point, LENR in general. There has been a continual flood of ideas and papers regarding various aspects of LENR (and its various iterations) operation. I think that there is a general mood of acceptance that even though no one knows for sure the LENR mechanism, the mechanism exists. I see a rapidly increasing interest and very exciting times ahead. The floodgates have developed a crack, and the waters are rising. - No virus found in this message.

Re: [Vo]:New Rossi Patent Appln..publishes Today
Blaze, interesting this was filed in April and Rossi was already describing the shadows cast by the coils far ahead of the controversy after the released report..and to give Rossi credit his explanation does have the ring of truth. The reacting material was much hotter than the heating coils making them by comparison into lamp shades/ insulators trapping some of the light and heat trying to escape the reaction. This seems like the simplest and therefore most likely explanation for the shadows.

[Vo]:RE: [Vo]:Re: [Vo]:RE: [Vo]:Can the wave function of an electron be divided and trapped?
From: John Berry Also, if you seek a transient effect, does heat exist in a moment? Heat is a chaotic form of random microscopic changes in kinetic energy, if so there should be windows where there is no change in momentum which could be argued to be as localized moments of zero heat? John, That is an interesting thought from several perspectives. We could call it a “localized freeze” or simply “subradiance,” which is well-known under that name. Even though we do not normally think of semi-coherency as being related to “lack of” a parameter, there is no reason we cannot phrase it that way. First – whenever there is superradiance in a larger system, there is corresponding subradiance – for a net energy balance of zero, if no outside energy enters the system. Secondly, this goes back to the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam problem, first written up at Los Alamos 1955, which seeks to explain how seemingly chaotic systems often express regularly ordered periods (such as hot and cold bifurcations). In effect subradiance powers superradiance. Finally, a “localized moment of zero heat” is more likely in the situation where there is a bifurcation between superradiance and subradiance at extremely small dimensions, such as a nanometer sized cavity… and especially where there are gaps in the emission spectra due to Casimir dynamics. Jones Beene wrote: An interesting possibility about FQHE – in the context of LENR, is that there could be a transient version inside a Casimir cavity. The phenomenon of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) occurs when electrons are contained in two dimensions, cooled to near absolute zero temperature, and exposed to a strong magnetic field. On the surface, it would seem that this cannot happen in LENR as a static phenomenon, as the temperature is way too high… but electrons confined inside a dielectric Casimir cavity, which is inside a metal matrix - even at 500C could experience a transient version of FQHE in a situation where SPP are supplying the strong magnetic field, and virtual photon exclusion by the cavity walls provides the cooling effect, and the inside of a Casimir cavity can be modeled as 2-D. The first and last are found in prior scientific studies, but the cooling effect is not seen in the literature, AFAIK. Not sure what direction you are going with this – but in 2010 – we were talking about fractional electron charge (AKA: FQHE) as being the driving force behind one form of LENR – at least the non-nuclear version of LENR and possibly the Mills’ version - which happens at the nanoscale or in Casimir cavities. Several times since then, the fractional Hall effect has been tied to thermal anomalies. https://www.mail-archive.com/vortex-l%40eskimo.com/msg40603.html “I won't go into all of the lore of monatomic hydrogen, going back to Langmuir, or the Mills' version of fractional hydrogen called the hydrino - except to say that there is another possibility that encompasses both of these phenomena - and it can explain other hot hydrogen (HH) phenomena or anomalies, so long as we limit it to two dimensions. This possibility would also suggest that a Casimir cavity is or acts 'as if' it were a two dimensional space. There are a number of papers on this second prerequisite, many of them by Calloni, but I will save that for another time. The argument is sound. According to Laughlin, electrons can form an exotic state with fractional charge in two dimensions. Unlike the putative hydrino, this seemingly odder beast is accepted by the mainstream. It has even won a Nobel. Consequently, taking this bit of insight to the next level - given that all electrons are happy to form pairs, it is suggested that HH is itself related to FQHE via paired electrons.”

The USPTO has an 18 month embargo on publication, which is optional and not required - and they chose not to avail themselves of the delayed publication. That is a strategy choice. You can find this stature online: (35 U.S.C. 122 Confidential status of applications) The implication is that they want to get the most basic version of the device protected and in front of the public immediately if possible. These is a very limited scope patent – and could get through, but it may not protect very much. There is no mention of isotopes or a particular catalyst. This means that they cannot protect the use of any catalyst, other than as a trade secret, but catch-22 – if the devices is not described well enough so that a practitioner “skilled in the art” can make and use it, they are in trouble on the basic claim. This is the so-called “enablement requirement” of 35 U.S.C. 112. The purpose of the requirement that the specification describe the invention in such terms that one skilled in the art can make and use the claimed invention is to ensure that the invention is communicated to the interested public in a meaningful way. Thus if MFMP can replicate the device for any gain, then Rossi is in a good position.

Quick read : most of it describes the physical structure and results of the first (2013) independent test. It says nothing about what the reaction is, other than it contains nickel and produces hydrogen. Banding/shadows : for the melted/banding run it gives the dimensions and positions of the bands and the heater elements. The dark parts are where the wires are. It ascribes these to shadow, though I still think those wires (based on the Penon pictures) were too thin to produce shadows from the internal, diffuse source. I think that the result from the different energy transfer of ceramic and the gaps in the ceramic (where the energy would have to be transferred by radiation or conduction through a gas). I deduce that the conduction through the ceramic won. It still means that the energy was coming from inside, and not from the heater wires. 600 is new - describing an assemblage of 18 reactors [0169] A system 600 for producing heat, according to at least one embodiment, is illustrated in FIG. 17.

Re: [Vo]:New Rossi Patent Appln..publishes Today
Are you not amazed that a patent is issued for a device of this type and not for one that claims cold fusion as the source of energy? What are the chances that the inventors actually brought one of these systems to the patent office to prove that it works? It is very sad that our field is treated as the unwanted kid while everyone else gets a free ride. It leads me to suspect that organizations with a large amount of influence have been aware of the potential of LENR type devices for a long time and have gone to great lengths to suppress their introduction into the world. If the technology has been known and kept from being developed then those responsible for this behavior should be taken to the shed out back and given a beating. This posting sounds a lot like a conspiracy theory and I suppose that is what it is, but the actions of the patent office give it credibility.

Re: [Vo]:New Rossi Patent Appln..publishes Today
That is a good point Alan. It is an interesting coincidence that the thought came into my mind just before it was published. That concept will become of much importance as applications for the CATs begin to appear. I can imagine that complex systems of these types of devices will be developed which depend upon the environment into which the individual units are imersed. Actions and control methods must be adjusted to take advantage of the local configuration. My simulation of an individual HotCat type device indicated that it should be possible to design it so that it remains stable over a large range of core operating temperatures. The forth order radiation power sink is a major component of that design plan. If these individual units are then grouped into a system such as a large oven, then the reverse radiation from the heated interior of that oven change the equation significantly. I can readily obtain a latching condition where the individual CATs continue to produce significant heat power without requiring any input heating from the built in electric heaters. As long as enough heat from electric heaters remains, then the overall COP for the complete system can become very large and hopefully under control. Of course the complete overall system has to be designed as a unit so that the oven can cool down once all of the electrical heating coils are turned off. The heat escaping the furnace must be larger than all of the heat power generated by the contributing latched CATs for this to happen.

RE: [Vo]:New Rossi Patent Appln..publishes Today
To take this part of the thread (re: a putative DCE connection to the Rossi patent application) - to its natural conclusion, there is one big … no huge … advance made by Rossi - over the Haisch/Moddel disclosure. That would be assuming that Rossi has actually seen the level of gain which is claimed, whereas H/M saw little gain in their prototype … which could have been for any number of reasons but mainly because you also need SPP. Therefore - the natural question of looking at the two together is this – can the Casimir effect be enhanced by high temperature (and SPP)? Thanks to Google, we have an answer, since this citation pops up (behind an annoying paywall) which indicates that the Casimir is indeed enhanced at high temperature. Imagine that. http://www.nature.com/ncomms/2014/140709/ncomms5364/abs/ncomms5364.html Abstract: The temperature dependence of the Casimir–Polder interaction addresses fundamental issues for understanding vacuum and thermal fluctuations. It is highly sensitive to surface waves, which, in the near field, govern the thermal emission of a hot surface… the observed increase of the interaction with temperature, by up to 50%, relies on the coupling between atomic virtual transitions in the infrared range and thermally excited surface-polariton modes. In conclusion – the Haisch/Moddel patent may explain slight thermal gain via DCE, when hydrogen is absorbed into ceramic cavities of the proper size, but which the original inventors could not document enough gain to matter. Yet Rossi has found using a much higher temperature regime - which he may not have explained correctly in his patent application using SPP in combination with Casimir. Each got part of the answer, but it requires looking at both to see it all. So where do we go from here?

Re: [Vo]:New Rossi Patent Appln..publishes Today
OK ... I re-read the paper more carefully. They only recorded data when the steam temperature was above 101C at atmospheric pressure, with actual steam temperatures rising from 121.3C to 139.7C So it MUST have been 100% dry, and super-heated -- no need to measure the quality. (OK : I could quibble a little, that the boiling point depends on the actual atmospheric pressure, or at least corrected for altitude.) I ran this through my steam calculator. They took water from two tanks, at slightly different temperatures --- starting at 21.6C and 22.4C, and ending at 54.9 and 46.8 so I used the highest value of 54.9 The time of the test is not given, so I set it to a nominal 1 hour. First, using their conservative values -- reducing the amount of water used (to 2295kg) and not counting the heating of the steam (Quality=1) This gives a COP of 11.081 -- which is close to their value. (The energy to heat he water to boiling, and then to superheat it is very small compared to the evaporation). http://lenr.qumbu.com/ecatcalc.php?plot=Plotever=cefzx0=0efzy0=0efzx9=9efzy9=9esl=1epbr=2enm=Patent+Reactor+600+--++1MW++--+Conservativeedh=1edm=0eds=0eif=2295eip=140.7ecp=0eox=1eoxr=2et0=22.4ep0=1et1=54.9et2=100er2=1 However, their procedure complicates things : they apparently return the water straight back to the same tank, so it actually rises from 21.6 to a final value of 54.4 and a highest value of 54.9 (and similarly for the second tank). As the inlet water temperature rises, so does the steam temperature. They use the highest temperature values in their calculations, so they again under-estimate the COP. To try and estimate the true COP, I divided the time and water flow by 100, and then used the start and end temperature values. (In each case I use the highest temperature of the two tanks -- I could use a weighted average.), and the full volume of water. This still assumes that all the generator power goes into heating. This gave a COP of 13.2 at the start, and 12.7 at the end So I'd say that the actual COP is around 13
Re: [Vo]:New Rossi Patent Appln..publishes Today
