Imagine a mat of Carbon nanohorns enveloped by high pressure molecular H2 gas. A considerable amount of H2 molecules will enter the nanohorn pipe and would almost be trapped there . Jojo - One practical approach you might consider is to contact any or all of the various Labs that have been experimenting with carbon nanotubes for hydrogen storage. Over the recent years there have quite a number of PR articles like this: http://www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/News/2011/January/26011103.asp Many hits on google. Of course these Labs were NOT looking for energy anomalies, per se, but if there were any strong anomalies, could they have been overlooked? The initial response is sure - anyone could overlook a little extra heating, if they were not looking for it. They could overlook a small amount, but not a lot of thermal gain since part of the process to release the hydrogen on demand involves adding heat. Of course extra heat is what we want to see, but is a factor which would screw up their goals. Using this practical approach, the inquiry will eventually gets narrowed down to what - in addition to nanotubes and high pressure hydrogen, will convert a storage device into an energy device? i.e. another ingredient. I would think that it is probably worth your time to email a number of these researchers and ask them if anything which was suspicious has been noticed in thermal heating with various formulations.
