This post is just to check my understanding of the supposed structure
of the Rossi device.
As I understand it, the device elements, in cross section of the
reactor portion, are annular in nature, radially symmetric, except
for the band heaters which roughly approximate radial symmetry. The
following layers comprise the cross section, from innermost to
outermost:
1. Reactor material with hydrogen
2. Steel reactor container
3. Water
4. Copper outer jacket
5. Band heater resistors driven by 220 V
6. A lead shield
7. Insulation
An exception to the above is there is a resistance heater located in
or around the steel reactor container? There are temperature sensors
in the device which allow the controller to individually apply
current to the resistance heating elements.
