Hey, Abd, may be the best way to catalyze thinking would be to set up a simple experiment to make a cell phone video: Rich Murray 2011.08.08
a simple transparent hot water system to model the behavior of a Rossi reactor: Rich Murray 2011.08.08 use glass bottle with a long neck going from the side up at an angle, or a bottle with a long top neck that is tilted at an angle, full of dyed water up to a few cm above the start of the neck -- slowly raise temp to boiling on a stove or hot plate -- boiling water will start spewing gently, with careful adjustment of the input heat, as a froth up the tube -- if a clear hose is attached to the tube, then it can curve to lie flat for a distance, showing how much water condenses and runs along the bottom half or so of the diameter, with froth, mist, and steam moving faster above it -- allow hose to curve down gently at the final meter to a submerged transparent glass container full of clear water, enough to cool and catch all the water and froth, which will be carrying some of the dye -- if the input heat was from a hot plate, then the input electric power could be compared to the increase in temperature of the final water bottle, which can easily be insulated -- the whole system can be insulated with fiberglass wool, allowing just enough exposure to enable webcams to monitor the flow at various places, with a prominent digital clock in view -- the video can be set up to run in slow motion or allow inspection of single frames -- any able experimenters game to try this? try runs with different size gaskets reducing the output diameter of the exit end of the hot water Murray reactor. set up a mike to record the bubbling sounds at that point. probably be good singing tea kettle at times -- might as well use some tea bags to generate the dye -- then can bottle and sell the final evidence... can also use a raised container of already brewed, cool tea water as a constant pressure source through an adjustable faucet to deliver a continuous flow into the Murray reactor, which can only exit through the single outlet -- study how complex the dynamics of this simple nonlinear system are, and how much adjusting a person has to do of electric input and input water flow to generate a fairly stable overall flow for over 10 minutes or more -- another version would use a heating resistor within or outside the the top of the inclined exit tube, before any limiting small bore exit gasket, as the sole electric power heat source -- do runs live online for all to see -- allow unfettered discussion on a public blog and put all of it in the public domain. within mutual service, Rich Murray [email protected] 505-819-7388 ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
