It was his calling Dave's modelling efforts a "toy" that ticked me off. I don't think Andrew, EE, will bother us in the future. ;)
Re: [Vo]:Spice model explains eCat non-exponential waveform, supports David Roberson's linear-response theory
I think the analysis of the curve shapes is gross over-interpretation. First of all, it's not clear from the paper that the square wave at the input really represents a measurement, or an artist's conception. As far as I understand, it's taken from the video, but all they really say is what the peak value is, and what the cycle timing is. They don't say it drops to zero between the peaks, and they don't say how rapidly the change is. I got the impression that they just drew a square waving using the measured cycle times and the peak voltage. Second, we don't know what other loads may be in the circuit inside the box, since there is no measurement on the output of the box. The observed cycling of the temperature is entirely consistent with a cycling on the input to the ecat between two levels very far from zero, and therefore representing much higher input power than claimed. And the cheese video shows how easy it would be to fool the meters into showing zero input during part of the cycle. It doesn't mean they used the same method, only that meters are not difficult to trick. Since it's clear the wiring was set up by Rossi, since it was already running when they came in, there is no transparency here at all. The blank run used a different power regimen. What's the use of that? It's a first class farce. Nothing more.

Harry/Dave: Andrew is borderline pathological skeptic. when challenged by Dave to do a Spice model so they could compare them to see if they get the same results, and if not, why, what does Andrew do? He starts with the insults and name calling. Typical for a pathoskep who is called out on the carpet and has no place to hide, so he attacks the opponent personally. tries to propagate the perception that his opponent is not competent.

Well - it does matter if the waveform falls into the category of "superwave" as claimed in Dardik's applications - "System and method for producing anharmonic multi-phase currents" WO 2008156979 A3 or "Pulsed low energy nuclear reaction power generators WO 2005017918 A3" and others. In fact, this prior art could be the most logical reason for the secrecy... Jones

Re: [Vo]:Spice model explains eCat non-exponential waveform, supports David Roberson's linear-response theory
That's a nice piece of reverse engineering - Kudos. My only issue with it is the plot in the report, which definitely shows square waves. Mind you, these were measured on the input side of the control box. So it's possible you've uncovered a secret about the actual drive waveform.

The actual shape is probably a superposition of the square-wave (resistor heating) and triangular (ecat). (My curve shows what happens when the on/off cycle is too slow.)

No, the net heat INPUT, from joule heating plus anomalous heat. The capacitance represent the specific heat * volume, and the resistors to "AMBIENT" represent the convective and radiative OUTPUT. > Are you saying it is a highly regular triangle?!? I suppose not. Just > that in general a triangular wave of heat would make this kind of > wave form. In this run I applied the joule heating and the anomalous heating separated in time. Now I need to combine the two by applying the two pulses (square and triangular) in an overlapping pattern before it decays. (I've previously convinced myself that the T^4 variation of radiation isn't significant in determining the shape of the pulse).. Oh ... and what happens when (as Siegel etc .. demand) you turn off the controller? Duh : it'll just decay as shown on the right !
