RE: EXTERNAL: [Vo]:CANR explains the original Papp engine

2013-03-08 Thread Roarty, Francis X
Jones ,
 I am ok with negating the sealed  heat engine  but since we aren't talking 
about combustion but rather what you referred to once as a cold engine I remain 
open to a possible sealed cold engine based on  changes in isotropy where 
reversible  chemical reactions runaway when compression reduces bounding gas 
pocket  geometries around ionized gas like hydrogen down into the active 
Casimir region such that disassociation is discounted below the amount of 
energy returned when the gas immediately re-associates.  My hypothesis is based 
on Jan Naudts paper regarding the hydrino  as actually being relativistic 
hydrogen and a 1996 paper  Cavity QED by Zofia Bialynicka-Birula. The two 
papers taken together suggest that Casimir supression results in what Puthoff 
would describe as a reduced vacuum pressure in the same way that an observer 
in a deep gravity well or approaching C would perceive  us on earth as being in 
a reduced vacuum pressureand greatly accelerated/catalyzed. The only 
difference is we tend to consider Casimir supression as negative from our 
perspective because we insist on considering our macro perspective of space 
time as being the zero reference point when there is no 3D motion...apparently 
we have to start thinking about 4D displacement when we delve into lattices and 
especially vacuum suppression geometries and the defects that make these 
suppression values dynamic. Puthoffs vacuum pressure can be considered the 
standard pressure that defines the stable elements in the periodic table and as 
such helped us derive COE and is the source of HUP as virtual pairs enter and 
exit our plane displacing real particles equally and randomly along all 3 
axii... Your mention of Casimir geometry as approaching the limit of 2D may be 
one clue to how ZPE becomes unbalanced / biased against one of the axis we 
experience in our frame in the same way the Paradox Twins exist on phase 
shifted 3 of 4D's relative to each others frame. This also explains the time 
dilations reported and gives a better working mans concept for catalytic action 
instead of the current metrics description based on surface areas. This is all 
to reiterate my suspicion of a self assembling HUP trap that reduces the 
disassociation threshold of H2 or D2 that is common between all the 
players..Mills, Papp, Mahg, Rossi..even the menisci of bubble fusion to explain 
the observed plasma...although the dynamics are probably the biggest discount 
to the disassociation threshold the fact that vacuum pressure is lower in the 
cavity and doesn't require energy to propell the gas near C suggests 
contributions through time dilation as well where the reversible reactions are 
actually occurring much slower from the local perspective of the gas atoms 
themselves. Are we possibly trading time for energy by spatially unbalancing 
HUP from our reference frame?

In the history of the Josef Papp saga, Gene Mallove took a special interest in 
a few details that are not well-known.

There was a video of a US Navy military sponsored explosion, a cannon 
reported by Gene to have used Papp's technology. I haven't seen the video, but 
it is available from IE. What would be more interesting than a poor video (but 
we can only guess what is reported) is the actual Navy report of this test. 
Maybe someone should put in a FOI request for it.

Historically, it looks like there could have been a number of explosions of 
radium compounds that were more intense than chemical reactions but much of 
that info is not online since it goes back in time over 100 years.

In addition to a short half life, radium is extremely chemically reactive. This 
could be a clue in what is going on in a radium-powered engine, as the patent 
describes. In CANR the idea has been around for a long time that chemical 
reactions can cause(catalyze) nuclear reactions, or speed up nuclear decay by 
many orders of magnitude.

The first reliable  instance of this phenomena is found in the deuterium 
chloride trigger for the first device developed at Los Alamos in the 1940s. 
This was the Kistiakowsky trigger named after Dr. K - the Head of the 
Explosives Division of the Manhattan Project. The chlorine must 
photo-activated to cause deuterium to release neutrons, possibly by 
stripping.

Can radium chloride be triggered like DCl when the photo-activation is arc

LENR is nowhere close to influencing oil prices, and how can you control
inflation by shorting Big Oil ?

The sell-off could be technology related, however. But it is old and not
green. Curiously - it is Nazi technology, so at least they gave us something
of value. You can call it Messerschmitt Fuel from an improved version of
Fischer-Tropsch.

Pilot plants are producing a barrel of premium low sulfur diesel for $66, or
$1.57 a gallon, using gas at $4 per thousand standard cubic feet at small
plants near the shale. In contrast, it cost Exxon about $124 a barrel, or
$2.95 a gallon to make premium diesel from Texas crude, almost double. Would
you want to keep Exxon knowing this? 

Smart money seems to be selling Big Oil because there is a glut of shale
gas, and the new technology allows conversion of that gas to diesel fuel and
heating oil at less than the cost of crude. It's a no brainer and LENR is
out of the picture. This glut will not last more than a few years according
to experts.

An eventual price drop at the pump could put at least $200 billion back into
the US economy which had been going to OPEC, so all the talk about sequester
is probably hype. However, the bad news in California is pump prices have
not dropped much, because we are cursed with the Chevron hegemony and
undeveloped shale gas. But that can change.

This article from Oilprice.com is a really good bullshit. It will take ages
before LENR will have an impact on oil prices, and therefore on energy
prices. Big banks, and big oil companies will have (or already have) a
strong fight against LENR. But surely it will not be like it's explained in
the article.

With 10 GW or even 100 GW of LENR energy available, the energy prices might
start to be slightly affected. For comparison, 100 GW is a little more than
what France has of electrical power installed. Suppose Rossi and others
start to produce LENR reactors, how long will it take to have 10 GW of LENR
energy available? 3~4 years at least, guess from my thumb.

Fran, good point.

Your basic suggestion sounds viable if the facts support it. A
hydrogen-based reaction (Casimir or Casimir instigated redundant ground
state reaction in a noble gas matrix) would be a more interesting
proposition if we could show that Papp had used hydrogen in his gas mix, but
there's not much evidence for that. 

Another possibility, if there were persistent ions in the gas (aka hydino
hydride), is a version of the exploding or variable capacitor model. John
Berry posted on this once
(http://www.mail-archive.com/vortex-l@eskimo.com/msg32772.html) but I'm not
sure anyone ever suggested that this particular engine is a version of it.  

 

H2 could arguably have been a common contaminant in tanked helium in that
era. Back in the late sixties, helium probably did have a fractional percent
or more. H2 could also have been Papp's trade secret, but if the energy
comes from f/H - it materializes as thermal gain. There should be lots of
heat for UV radiation. The exploding capacitor scenario is also a heat
engine proposition.

 

If the engine is marginally air-cooled, and hydrogen ionization and
redundancy is occurring - then its temperature should rise rapidly during
operation. It the cylinder does not heat up, as appears to be the case, then
it does not seem to operate as a heat engine and it seems to violate Boyle's
law. The advocates of this engine might say that the purpose of the mix of
noble gases was to take the fill as far away from an ideal gas as possible.
No problem with that, but the explanation does not imply that heat can
completely disappear for one area of space. 

 

IOW - even if there is a thermodynamic cooling anomaly of major proportions
due to the non-ideal gas mix, that does NOT mean that an engine of this type
is capable of self-running without a heat source. And it means that a
self-runner requires two completely separate miracles - the anomalous heat
source and the anomalous cooling source. 

 

If Josef Papp found those two miracles at the same time, then maybe he also
invented the 300 mph submarine :-) and was the most misunderstood man on
earth (till AR came along).

Ex nihilo: Dynamical Casimir effect in metamaterial converts vacuum
fluctuations into real photons
March 8, 2013 by Stuart Mason Dambrot

Copyright © PNAS, doi:10.1073/pnas.1212705110 (Phys.org)

 —In the strange world of quantum mechanics, the vacuum state (sometimes
referred to as the quantum vacuum, simply as the vacuum) is a quantum
system's lowest possible energy state. While not containing physical
particles, neither is it an empty void: Rather, the quantum vacuum contains
fluctuating electromagnetic waves and so-called virtual particles, the
latter being known to transition into and out of existence. In addition,
the vacuum state has zero-point energy – the lowest quantized energy level
of a quantum mechanical system – that manifests itself as the static
Casimir effect, an attractive interaction between the opposite walls of an
electromagnetic cavity. Recently, scientists at Aalto University in Finland
and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland demonstrated the dynamical
Casimir effect using a Josephson metamaterial embedded in a microwave
cavity. They showed that under certain conditions, real photons are
generated in pairs, and concluded that their creation was consistent with
quantum field theory predictions.

Researcher Pasi Lähteenmäki discussed the challenges he and his colleagues
– G. S. Paraoanu, Juha Hassel and Pertti J. Hakonen – encountered in their
study. Regarding their demonstration of the dynamical Casimir effect using
a Josephson metamaterial embedded in a microwave cavity at 5.4 GHz,
Lähteenmäki tells Phys.org that the main challenge in general is to get
high-quality samples. In addition, Lähteenmäki adds, they had to ensure
that the origin of the noise is quantum and not some unaccounted source of
excess noise, such as thermal imbalance between the environment and the
sample, or possibly leakage of external noise.

Modulating the effective length of the cavity by flux-biasing the SQUID
(superconducting quantum interference device) metamaterial had its
challenges as well. The pump signal needs to be rather strong, yet at the
same time one wants to be sure that no excess noise enters the system
through the pump line, Lähteenmäki notes, and good filtering means high
attenuation, which is a requirement contradictory to a strong signal.
Also, Lähteenmäki continues, at 10.8 GHz the pump frequency is rather
high – and at that frequency range both the sample and the setup is rather
prone to electrical resonances which can limit the usable frequencies.

 In short, the flux profile needs to be such that the pumping doesn't
counteract itself. In addition, trapping flux in SQUID loops can also
become a problem, limiting the range of optimal operating points and
causing excess loss. The researchers also showed that photons at
frequencies symmetric with respect to half the modulation frequency of the
cavity are generated in pairs. In general, with frequency locked signal
analyzers today the extraction of this correlation is not particularly
problematic – especially since the low noise amplifier noise is not
correlated at different frequencies, Lähteenmäki explains.

That said, issues related to data collection and averaging include
amplifier gain drift and phase randomization of the pump signal (relative
to the detection phase) if the state of the generator is changed. The
noise temperature of the low noise amplifier sets some limits to the amount
of data that needs to be collected, especially in the case where one is
operating in the regime of low parametric gain.

Lastly, the team also found that at large detunings of the cavity from half
the modulation frequency, they found power spectra that clearly showed the
theoretically-predicted hallmark of the dynamical Casimir effect. Large
detunings imply low intensity of generated radiation, notes Lähteenmäki.
This means long averaging times, so the system should be kept stable for a
long period.

 Also, the system needs to be fairly resonance-free over a large range of
frequencies to get decent data – and/or one needs to know the
characteristics of these resonances and noise temperature of the low noise
amplifier rather well. Lähteenmäki points out that addressing these issues
required a number of insights and innovations. We combated amplifier drift
by continuously switching the pump on and off, and recording the difference
in the observed output power, suitable operating points were searched for
using trial and error, and trapping the photon flux was eliminated by
applying a heat pulse to the sample and letting it cool down again.

The researchers also magnetically shielded the sample with a
superconductive shield, and minimized the effect of losses by changing the
coupling of the existing samples by making different valued vacuum coupling
capacitors with focused ion beam (FIB) cuts. However, Lähteenmäki
stresses, our biggest issue – ruling out the source of classical noise as
opposed to quantum noise – was accomplished primarily by

 You're one minor and one major industrial revolution behind in this
 analysis:

 Minor:  The emergence of the east Asian giants has already fundamentally
 changed the political economics of technology deployment.  They are much
 less encumbered  than is the West and much more motivated to apply their
 manufacturing flexibility.  This is like a combination of the Nazi
 economic
 miracle and the post-war German economic miracle.

I did! Thank you for it. Nothing special I'm aware of.

 

Do you belief than LENR will change the energy market in less than 3 years?

Ah, I only read as far as your phrase will take ages where you called
bullshit.  3 to 4 years out (not exactly ages ), you're right: the
futures contracts are unlikely to be significantly altered by the
announcement of fully functional Hot-CAT from Rossi or similar announcement.

On the other hand the market cap of oil company shares take into account
the value of resources in the ground and those quite possibly could be
affected significantly within 3 to 4 years of such an announcement.

A close friend of mine is an economist. He says that the valuation of any
company extends into the future for decades. In this case, he said that if
it becomes generally known that a form of cold fusion is commercially
useful, and if nearly everyone agrees that is true, that would mean oil
companies have no long-term future. The present value of oil companies
would plummet. The price of oil would also drop sharply, because the oil
companies would want to sell off their inventory quickly.

That has been my gut feeling for a long time. He confirmed it.

In other words, it is not just the commodity value in 4 years that matters.
In this situation the oil companies would be like companies manufacturing
vacuum tubes in 1952, after transistors were announced. Even though not a
single transistor had been sold. savvy people knew they would soon erode
sales of vacuum tubes.

It would be interesting to look at the surface of the inflation-adjusted
price of triode vacuum tubes vs volume shipped through time from 1947.

The same surface, substituting total market cap of vacuum tube companies
for triod vacuum tube price would be an interesting comparison.
