[Vo]:Rossi's E-Cat: modulable output or not?
Hello group, Have a look here: http://www.journal-of-nuclear-physics.com/?p=360cpage=11#comment-27734 [...] Is it easy to adjust the output power of that unit or is it just “on” or “off” 10 kW? # Andrea Rossi March 14th, 2011 at 2:16 PM Dear Mr Mats Heijkenskjold: Yes, you can adjust it, by means of a potentiometer . Compare with this: http://www.journal-of-nuclear-physics.com/?p=360cpage=5#comment-20066 # Andrea Rossi January 21st, 2011 at 3:44 AM Dear Mr Di Stefano: 1-The output of a single module is not modulable. The output of combined modules is modulable turning on/off one or more modules [...] This seems to be contradicting information. I wonder if there have been actual changes or if Rossi is deliberately spreading misleading information. Cheers, S.A.

Ask him the same question 3 times and you get 4 different answers! I wonder if there have been actual changes or if Rossi is deliberately spreading misleading information. I cannot tell. It could be deliberately misleading, or confusion, or he changes his mind, or he simply does not know the answer. One person who knows him better than I do said the problem is that Rossi's imagination is so vivid, he sees what he wants to see, instead of reality. - Jed

... or else Rossi (more likely a subcontractor) really did add a common control element to the circuit between the two answers, which would not be surprising at all. It would be more worrisome if Rossi 'made up' the identity of a Board Member. That would be in reference to George Kelly of the University of New Hampshire, who still has not surfaced, AFAIK. There was a famous professor with that name there (now deceased) in social sciences, and the present one could be a former professor by that same name. The problem then is not that there is no one presently at UNH so named, but could there have been two? Every bit of verification helps, so why hide this?

That is not a great trait in a researcher. (Obviously.) (And now I'll crawl back under my rock, where I've been hiding out for the last week or two...)

The PWM scheme is basically throttling back a runaway reaction that doesn't really have any stable state between starvation and runaway but creates stability using duty factor. The PWM has to be balanced against the slower heat extraction loop so the controlled increase or reduction of any individual module (while maintaining over unity) is going to be relatively slow - I don't think any significant fast change in output power other than totally quenching the reaction is possible BUT he may be able to side step that issue by small PWM manipulations To 100 reactors at a time such that the device can respond to load variations.
