On Saturday, February 12 Jones Beene said [snip]The provocative conjecture of a poster known as "Axil" is that the EMC effect causes the hydrogen nucleus of a hydride to merge with heavy nucleus of the nickel atom when the momentum of the nickel atom is increased by the motion of vibration of the metal lattice to a certain level - which seems to be a threshold temperature in a narrow range. [/snip]
Once again the theme is "a threshold temperature in a narrow range". Many of these theories appear to be reaching the same conclusions. I arrived at the need for a "narrow thermal range" around the disassociation threshold for H2 based on an endless ashless chemical reaction driven in reverse by random motion relative to the changing nano geometry/energy density. My reasons aside the conclusion appears to be finding a consensus. The concept would suggest that cooling is every bit as important in the control loop as heating and that "growing" the output heat has to be Accomplished in a very balanced control of heat extraction, PWM triggering over the threshold and adequate rest time to achieve usable output levels. fran
