Re: [Vo]:Spice model explains eCat non-exponential waveform, supports David Roberson's linear-response theory

2013-05-29 Thread Joshua Cude
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.

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

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

Duh : it'll just decay as shown on the right !

Even a square-wave will give a non-exponential waveform.

To make any real conclusions I'd need to see -- from the dummy run --

a) The temperature rise with full power, from cold, until stable, and then 
falling again.
b) A run with full power at a duty cycle of 35% (Suggested by Cude)

Given those, I could make a first-order guess at the eCat's power profile.

Bazingafeathers. The control box (blue and yellow) consumes a few watts (think

It controls the Triacs (lets talk single phase -- the black-and-yellow boxes) 
which lose quite a few watts (therefore the grilled enclosure).

The blue on/off square wave is just the average power run through the triac, 
which modulates the power by clipping the sine wave.   If you really, really 
wanted to, you could modulate the triac with a triangular pattern and you would 
get the wavy line.

There are NO secrets in the cable. Rossi may have discovered that an overall

report. Bazinga.


Bazingafeathers. The control box (blue and yellow) consumes a few watts 
(think laptop).
It controls the Triacs (lets talk single phase -- the black-and-yellow 
boxes) which lose quite a few watts (therefore the grilled enclosure).


The blue on/off square wave is just the average power run through the 
triac, which modulates the power by clipping the sine wave.   If you 
really, really wanted to, you could modulate the triac with a triangular 
pattern and you would get the wavy line.




The only problem is that the cable between the control box and the
device contains secrets. That's your next reverse-engineering
mission :)


There are NO secrets in the cable. Rossi may have discovered that an 
overall wave-shape other than a square-wave or triangle wave works 
wonders. But what it is DOESN'T FURGING MATTER.

The diagram reminds me of constructions consisting of springs and dashpots
in series and parallel which are used to model viscoelastic materials.
see e.g.

His circuit diagram could be considered an electric model of force
interaction at the atomic scale within the Ecat's fuel.

 Let's make sure I understand these 4 plots. I understand your diagram thus:

  The blue square wave goes through your toy model and emerges as the
 green double exponential.
 The blue triangular wave goes through your toy model and emerges as the
 green curve that looks very like the power curve in the report.
 The toy model describes a thermal simulation which translates electrical
 input to the device to radiant power output.

 OK so far?

 Assuming yes, here's what I think you've shown.  The control box consumes
 power as a square wave (which is what the report measures on the input
 side), and outputs a triangular wave to the device. The device's output
 power profile (radiant heat) comes out as per the report. Bazinga.
