Independent Testing on Hyperion Reactors Praxen Defkalion Green Technologies Global Ltd. (PDGT) is ready to further allow third parties to evaluate its core technology: a multi stage LENR reaction between Nickel and Hydrogen.
PDGT has successfully completed its scientific, technological and engineering steps necessary to sustain such a reaction with results exceeding a COP of 20 and with temperatures capable to exceed 650 degrees Celsius. As it was announced in our November 30th Press Release, a series of third party tests on Hyperion products have been scheduled to be performed within the first months of 2012, immediately after our product’s certification. This announcement does not refer to such product tests. Independent tests have already been scheduled. With this announcement, PDGT welcomes further requests from internationally recognized and reputable scientific and business organizations interested to conduct their independent tests on “bare” Hyperion Reactors. Tests will be conducted following mutually agreed protocols based on the general principles herein. Test Objectives Measurement of excess heat produced by reactions within Hyperion reactors Measurement of “bare” Hyperion Reactor COP (i.e. total energy consumed versus energy produced) Measurement of radioactivity during testing Measurement of reactor’s stability using its control mechanisms Type of Testing Parallel run of two identical Hyperion Reactors connected in parallel to the same electric energy sources for pre-heating and the same Hydrogen input source. The active Reactor #1 will be equipped and prepared ready to trigger and sustain a steady reaction. The Reactor #2 will be empty of any powders and with all triggering and control mechanisms deactivated. Following a parallel test run of both Reactors for at least 48 hours, the two Reactors will be switched for a second run (Reactor #1 empty and Reactor #2 active) in order to authenticate the same results. Configuration & Measurements Both Reactors are of the same configuration, placed in the same room with a 50-60cm distance from each other. Both reactors will be identically isolated. Calibrated thermocouples of the same type will be connected inside each Reactor chamber and attached in the outer surface of each reactor. All four thermocouples will report their measurements to the same data logger and PC logging software. The pressure of the Hydrogen circuit will be monitored and logged with the same sample rate as the thermocouples logging (i.e. 1/sec). All electric consuming devises attached to the Reactors will be measured and logged (Volt and Amps). All electric supplies to the reactors will be through a UPS unit to avoid grid problems and any possible fluctuations. Monitoring of any type of radioactivity from the tested Reactors will be performed following a 24hours measurement of the testing environment, to be used as base measurement. Cooling Method Cold air may be blown to both Reactors through their isolation if the maximum safety temperature level as defined in the test protocol is reached in the active Reactor. Measurement Methodologies 1. On Heat Energy and COP Differential Thermal Analysis: Following the test run, the Temperature/Time logged plots of inner and outer thermocouples will be used to calculate: The difference of integrals between the Temperature/Time logged plots of inner thermocouple measurements of the two Reactors. This results to the calculation of the absolute excess heat energy produced by the active Reactor. The difference of integrals between the logged plots of each pair of inner and outer attached thermocouples attached to each Reactor. The difference of the respective energy of the absolute excess heat energy produced by the active Reactor versus the total electric energy consumed by the active Reactor (heater and controls). This results in the COP of the active Reactor. Reactors will be weighed before and after testing. 2. On Radiation A Muller-Geiger tube, calibrated to the environment base radiation level, will be used to measure alpha and gamma emissions from the active Reactor. 3. On Stability The active Reactor’s thermocouples measured temperatures, both inner and on outer surface, will be maintained stable with a fluctuation of no more than +/- 10% during the whole testing period, as observed after the triggering of the reaction in the active Reactor. 4. Other Measurements No other measurements (e.g. calorimetry), will be performed during such “bare” Reactor testing. The existing already released specifications of Hyperion products relating to system performance, stability, safety and functionality will not be tested during this series if tests. Reactor’s Performance It is expected that tests will conclude a COP in excess of 20 Publication of Protocols and Results The detailed test protocols will be published by PGDT before any third party test is performed. Test results may be published by the independent evaluators in the media they choose and in our site, jointly. ------------- Following the above, PDGT remains committed to its vision as a pioneer in LENR technology. Hyperion products can be used as a cheap, clean and green energy source for households and industrial applications. PDGT remains committed to the world at large, providing its technology with responsibility and diligence. __________________________________________ Praxen Defkalion Green Technologies Global Ltd.
