New comment from chan Chan Says: More convenient arrangement just successfully tested. Reactants carefully suspended in mineral oil under inert dry conditions. A closed circuit using 1/4″ copper tube was serially connected to a Groco Gear Pump GRO-GPB1-12, this heat exchanger: http://www.brazetek.com/products/details/18/6/4-x-12-inch-1-inch-mpt-connections-stainless-steel-copper-brazed-plate-heat-exchangers/20-plate-brazed-heat-exchanger-1 and 6″ tube section wound with #24 gage wire. A T installed at the lowest point allowed installation of a drain petcock. A T installed at the highest point led to a vertical expansion container consisting of a 12″ length of 3/4″ copper pipe, open at the top. A computer monitored thermal couple was placed with suitable wrapping at the oil inlet of the exchanger. A Wavetek RFG is attached to the coil. The secondary heat exchange circuit is composed of standard steel piping with an adjustable pressure vent and makeup water supplied by a small pump. All was thoroughly insulated with fiber glass and aluminum foil. I am in the process of adjusting variables to boost from excess heat already obtained to self sustaining mode. This information is given to help those actually working on projects. I have no time for conversations. May I reprint the following from Rossi’s Journal: “#Bernie Koppenhofer November 21st, 2011 at 5:28 PM Mr. Rossi: It is my opinion you are on the right course. These people who want more testing are in two groups: 1) Those who want to steal secrets 2) Those who do not understand entrepreneurship/economics and the current state of our patenting process. Stay the course, concentrate on producing more E-cats for as many different parties and uses as you can and as fast(safely) as you can. Let your friends on this site help you as much as possible. # Andrea Rossi November 21st, 2011 at 11:31 PM Dear Bernie Koppenhofer: Thank you really much. You have understood perfectly the situation. Warm Regards, A.R. “
