Thank you for calling CF a surface effect, perhaps we have to add that it is a local effect, only separate point like active sites generate the heat. Unfortunately micron thin layers evaoprate immediately- can you imagine how much is 100W.sq.cm? And can you tell me a single* real example of heat excess obtained with such layers in the Pd/D2O system?* I have not lied when I was alive, should strat do it now? Should I give non-usable examples, advices to my grandson???
