Hello Haiko, I watched-intermittently, the videocast of the Zurich conference sunday 10:00 up to 17:xx (now).
I have very mixed feelings on that. 1st) Adolf and Inge Schneider, TransAltec Inc., Zurich/CH, the organizers, are a quite dubious couple 2nd) Rossi's presentation did not show anything new, neither in the positive nor in the negative 3rd) Other presenters are obviuosly scammers of the lowest grade: His presentation: ...Novel Concept for the Conversion of Heat into Electric Energy, with Demo Highly efficient method for generating electricity from low temperature heat Dr. sc.nat. Hans Weber, London/GB and Zug/CH... some catchwords I noted while watching: ---- ARCMIRA group no mechanics shop 7 shell(my words) companies, mainly located in GB piezoelectric/pyroelectric devices wilhelm reichs orgon pyrocapacitor supercap not yet ready to convert substantial amounts of energy I am not a mechanical person an investor wanted to buy our whole research for a quarter million, but we are not yet ready I prefer drehspulinstrumente (moving-coil-meters) -- the beauty is, you need no battery the Higgs boson this is elementary electronics I am a radioamateur Das ist ein UKW/MW/LW-Drehkondensator (variable capacitor)... 150 500kHz (explaining his setup) I had not sufficient time in the hotel the effect ( of pyro-piezo) is in between the mechanical-electrical-thermal the whole thing is in development, as you see; you see that it is important to use moving coil measuring instruments, not digital ones I wanted to show how we work unfortunately it is not yet independent of the power supply. ---- This was absolutely hilarious and makes any person with minimal technical sophistication tear out his hair and run away screaming. Cool Dr Rossi did not. Understandable. (The honest person he is, he refused the title 'professor') Sidenote: If You are core presenter on a 'conference' like this, and ran away screaming, this would translate to a mental health issue of your own. Probably Rossi does not have such a filter anymore, because he has been pushed to the fringe so often. Rossi made no error in extrapolating the possibility of a 1GW ecat, as asked from the audience: answer: It is 1000 1MW ecats. I have to agree. I made a couple of screen-snaps, so maybe I upload one or the other, just for all to get an impression.
