Method for producing thermal energy

Abstract  
The invention relates to a method for producing thermal energy, wherein
light, initial material is introduced into a plasma arc (10) which is
located between a cathode (4) and an anode (3) and which is adapted to
fusion processes by supplying electric energy into the plasma state. A metal
cathode, which allows particles which are produced in the plasma to be
diffused, is used and allows a fusion process to take place in the metal
grid. The invention has a high degree of efficiency in corresponding systems
such that said method can be used anywhere where fossils and/or renewable
and/or chemical fuel can be used, in order to use the thermal energy
directly or by conversion.

I'm not sure its photoelectric.  Looks more like the high voltage plasma 
arc through water system, and again very similar to the Graneau/Pappas 
system and featured on a good number of you tube videos, except that the 
last time I looked a number of these you tube videos had dissappeared, 
which I thought was a little odd. However, I have copies of a number of 
them if needed to demonstrate prior art.

I don't think it claims to involve a photoelectric effect; it does not
appear to make any attempt to explain what's going on.  It seems to be a
water torch invention in the lineage of Brown's gas, where water is
dissociated into hydrogen and oxygen, and it tries to improve upon a 1990
cold fusion patent [1].  It refers to water rather than noble gasses, so I
think the comparison to Papp's device only goes so far.  But it definitely
reminds me of many of the electric arc devices/experiments.  The present
patent focuses a lot on the electric arc and the waveform used to drive it.

It is surprising to me that someone can write all of this stuff up and get
a patent for it.  There is very little to clearly differentiate this patent
from any number of experiments and patents that are out there.  I recall
hearing that in the European patent system, you get a patent automatically
upon application, but this does not imply that it is defendable.

Jones--

Why do you say the patent appears to be photoelectric?

It seems to identify  another way of loading a Pd or other metal with D or H 
or both at the surface of the metal and inducing solid state fusion  of the 
loaded materials--probably D based on what the inventers  say.

I agree with your assessment.  However, it does imply fusion of D and in fact 
uses the term fusion.  The following is a copy (translated from German with 
some mistakes) of the paragraph 12 of the patent :

Particularly preferably, the cathode material has been found to palladium, 
which is a result of its comparison to the other in the given materials high 
electron work function of 5.6 eV particularly well. With corresponding cooling 
of the cathode can thus much more of a produced by the resulting at the cathode 
heat electron current through the plasma arc can be prevented, as this for the 
heat generation process contributes nothing or these rather hindered as to 
produce a desired direction cathode particle to trigger fusion of the not 
produced in the cathode or impeded. Similar to achieve with other materials, it 
is necessary because of the lower work function of a much higher expense of 
cooling in order to prevent the undesired electrode current from the cathode 
and to minimize.

Reading the whole patent is interesting, especially noting the timing of 
controlling input energy pulses.
