Release date - 12/06/11

Now, whether the video was just an advertising scheme is the question. The date

This document, “the E-Cat does not produce excess Energy” has some some 
strange assertions.


http://www.fysik.org/WebSite/fragelada/resurser/cold_fusion_krivit.pdf

"Where does the power go? Out of the E-Cat or the tube? Not very likely 
since the
losses are small, 5 kW is a lot of power and it would heat the room 
perceptibly."


It would heat the area around the e-cat, and people who have observed 
the tests tell me that it does. However it would not heat the room if 
the thermostat is nearby the reactor. On the contrary, it would cool 
down the rest of the room, in winter with central heating or in summer 
with central air.


It is a big room and I doubt that 5 kW would make much difference. That 
would be the equivalent of 3 U.S. electric room heaters. There are large 
offices with more heaters than that under people's desks. I have one 
myself. That's probably a violation of fire laws but anyway, they do not 
make the offices warm. Also, the aggregate office equipment and lighting 
in a large office or grocery store consumes a lot more than 5 kW but 
those places are not noticeably hot.


Anyway, Ekstrom is wrong. Most of the heat is going down the drain, as 
steam or hot water.

Steam is a fluid. I don't know about a hole in the device other than the one
the hose is connected to, but the reason steam vents to the room is because
the pressure in the device is higher than in the room. A ball rolls
downhill, and fluid flows down pressure. Of course gravity affects fluid
flow too, but the ecat has to push the fluid up first, meaning still higher
pressure is needed.

Near, maybe, but higher, definitely. It doesn't need to be very much higher
to increase the boiling point a little. It only takes 30 cm of water depth
to increase the bp by one degree C.

If Rossi uses a slightly elevated bp as evidence of dry steam, then the
issue is more than communication. The fact that the temperature is perfectly
flat indicates the steam is at, not above, the boiling point.

I do not know if he made them. I doubt it. Many of the commercial 
catalysts are deposited on carbonized coconut shells or "husks" (see). 
It is naturally occurring fractalized material. "Fractalized" does not 
appear to be a word, but you know what I mean.

As I understand the operation, fluid does not flow out. Steam is venting
from a hole in the device. Therefore, the pressure should be 'near' room
pressure. So perhaps the disagreement on pressure is simply a
communication issue.

[Vo]:Defkalion's Carbon Rings of Benzene

2011-07-11 Thread noone noone
The following was posted on the Defkalion forum.

The forum was closed the next day.

---

Dear Defkalion,

In your recent video posted to Youtube (in which  you present the Hyperion 
technology to the world) the screen in the  background has a partial chemical 
formula. The part that I could make  sense of, was the empirical formula for 
"benzene." In the background,  were carbon rings of some benzene like molecule.

I  found this quite interesting, because "officially" carbon and benzene  has 
nothing to do with the E-Cat or Hyperion technology (unless you are  suggesting 
that the technology is preventing carbon from being  produced). Unofficially, 
there are a few theories floating around the  net that some form of carbon may 
be utilized as a catalyst in the  system. The carbon could potentially promote 
the creation of Rydburg  matter in the form of hydrogen ion clusters. This 
cluster of hydrogen  ions (Rossi has already stated that the ability to create 
atomic  hydrogen and utilize it appropriately is key to make the device work)  
can then penetrate inside of the defects in the nickle powder. These  clusters 
acting like one large atom could then interact with the nickle  to produce 
fusion reactions. Here is the link to the full theory.

http://www.mail-archive.com/vortex-l@es ... 47026.html

Also,  a previous cold fusion researcher used carbon as a catalyst, but did  
not 
produce near as much heat as Rossi's system. Here is a link about  his work...

http://www.infinite-energy.com/iemagazi ... date2.html

There  are a few differences between his system and Rossi's. He used deuterium  
instead of ordinary hydrogen (Rossi claims that deuterium does not  work), and 
used platinum instead of nickle enriched with N62 and N64.  The platinum metal 
he used was also not in nano-sizes (as far as I  know). The researcher actually 
speculated someone could use nickle or  other metals. 


Finally, there is another bit of info that might  indicate carbon is involved 
somehow with the processes in the E-Cat.  This is from Ed Storms who is a 
famous 
cold fusion researcher...

http://newenergyandfuel.com/http:/newen ... n-reactor/


Quote:
On  Rossi’s path to discovery: “Rossi hit upon this somewhat by accident.  He 
was using a nickel catalyst to explore ways of making a fuel by  combining 
hydrogen and carbon monoxide and apparently, observed quite by accident, that 
his  [apparatus] was making extra energy. So then he explored it from that  
point of view and, apparently, over a year or two, amplified the  effect.”

Oh, one more thing mainstream scientists have found a use for carbon as a 
catalyst in fuel cells. The following link explains the discovery.

http://www.lanl.gov/news/releases/cheap ... cells.html

-- 

So here are my questions...

1)  What is the significance of putting the empirical formula for benzene  (CH) 
and carbon-benzene rings on the first slide of your presentation?

2) Did you put the formula and carbon-benzene rings on the slide for no reason 
at all (randomly) or does it have some meaning?

3) Does carbon or benzene (in any form) have anything to do with the Hyperion 
or 
Energy Catalyzer? If so, what? 


4) Was the formula and benzene rings a clue of some sort about the catalyst?

If the posting of the (CH) and benzene rings were random or meant something 
different I apologize for this post. 


Please  realize that there are many people in the alternative energy community  
that feel our civilization is not going to exist as we know it that much  
longer, without some sort of exotic new energy technology. I personally  don't 
think the world has another twenty years left, without an extreme  energy 
breakthrough. Many of us are convinced your technology works and  have intense 
curiosity about the processes involved. To be blunt, it  could be the 
technology 
that buys humanity enough time to get it's act  together, so we do not destroy 
ourselves or the planet.

Thank you for any information you can provide.



Defkalion responded with the following.



We used this presentation template, that you can download from microsoft  
taplate site, because of the colors. The chemical formula in the  background 
has 
nothing to do with our technology. We use benzene  (βενζίνη)-gaz or gazoline

On the following page a person details how Rossi stated he would publish their

not been published due to the fact he mentions CARBON as a possible catalyst.

Could carbon be the catalyst?

Do any of you have an idea of what the catalyst might be?
