Mark, To be a bit contrarian: this looks like bad science to me. I think it is part assumption error, and part a relic of cavity super-radiant emission (Dicke-Preparata) by nanotubes, which emission is partially focused on a good blackbody emitter. If fact most of the effect could be

I don't believe Inductive Heating only occurs in AC, as in Alternating. The current does not have to be alternating as in reversing directions periodically. All that is require is a time varying current, which could be Direct current, as long as it is varyinng. The important thing is the

The article makes it appear as if they stumbled on the effect, but the abstract (click link at end of article)makes it clear they were looking for the effect because some new models of joule heating predicted it. harry On Tue, Apr 10, 2012 at 11:21 PM, Jojo Jaro jth...@hotmail.com wrote:

Inductive heating usually requires a time changing current in order to heat the nearby conductor. Maybe the current in this case is more like a series of quantum pulses which might have the time varying property required. A great deal of the effect would depend upon the relative magnitude of
