Whatever Happened to Cold Fusion?

Hence the PLC control of temperature in the Rossi device.
Terry, I agree the PLC controls the heating cycle but the anomalous reaction
has to be cooled down under the threshold in order to trigger it again and
again- Cooling may not be as
The whole EMC thing appears to be about quarks, and the inner working of
quarks.

Robin,
That is sadly the case, and the conversion to electricity is therefore
doomed to be at low efficiency. How low? is the question.
I hope

If thermal runaway is only a startup issue, cascaded cells might not
be an issue.

I thought so too at first but now am not so sure. Rossi may be able to use a
small safe COP and series up the reactors to produce

Even if it isn't a start up issue there is a certain ambiguity to threshold
temperatures with catalyzed gases where even superheated steam can still
provide cooling.

The Rossi reactor was running at 40:1 output the day before the Jan. 14
demo. As often happens with demos, it failed to work as well that day. It
did not work at all for a while and the audience was getting rowdy.
It can easily go above 400 deg C. Carnot efficiency will not be an issue.

Considering a Rinnai R94LSi NG. Anyone have one? Should I wait on a
Rossi Ecat?
Well, it is true that if the only thing needed for the reaction to proceed
is to maintain a narrow range of temperatures, say it is between 390C and
400C, which probably aligns with a phase-change in the active material --
then not only can superheated steam provide some cooling but more
Villa reported no gamma emissions or other radiation significantly above
background from the Rossi device. Celani, however, said that he did detect
something. Here are the details he related to me at ICCF16, from my notes.
He attended the demonstration on Jan. 14. The device did not work at
