I would love to see the best available chart of
"heat-after-death," showing
the thermal curve for a substantial time frame after
electrical power has
been cut.
Here are two:
http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/PonsSheatafterd.pdf
http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/DardikIultrasonic.pdf
The heat release is not sudden in either case.
The last (Energetics) paper has been overlooked to a large extent on the
various forums. But it is mystery why anyone (who is interested in
ultrasonic nuclear reactions) would give the secretive LeClair the slightest
consideration, when this open and impressive information is out there. Very
high COP seems possible.
BTW - heat release (after death) in the Pons paper is not sudden and does
not look like there could be a contribution from phase-transition. However,
the Dardik paper shows exactly the kind of see-saw effect which one might
expect from sequential phase transitions - operating to cause secondary
fusions, after power cut-off (fig 7,8 and 9). Of course, Dardik's entire
paper shows these kinds of temporal thermal pulsations (possibly expected
from ultrasound).
There is no indication of self-power, indicating that ultrasound is always
required to be on, but plenty of indication of slow cool-off - which is a
different thing. Figure 9 represents exactly how one would expect
"recalescence-reactivated-fusion" to look like, after power turn off...
which is continuing spiky bursts of heat, tapering off gradually.
The most troubling thing about this paper, given the very high gain and
fabulous COP - is here we are 4 years later and there is not much indication
(public at least) of the kind of progress one would hope for, with this as
the start. The group is aligned with Duncan, in Missouri - and so on, but is
there more to the story? Many do not trust Dardik's MD problems - but so
what?
Maybe in the USA, there is bureaucratic intransigence in our DoE or DoD
making them too slow and bloated to move rapidly with something so
promising... (as what Energetics seemed to be showing 4 years ago) but given
the Israeli connections of the Dardik group - and the greater need for an
energy breakthrough over there, and the rapid advances that Israel often
demonstrates in other fields (reverse-engineering of advanced weaponry, in
particular) ... one has to ask: did the Israeli military manage to take a
version of this program "black," in the sense of turning it into a secret
program?
Hmm... A look at Google satellite's view of Energetic's (former?) facilities
in Omer shows a both potentially a large facility (but - there could be many
unrelated tenants there), and also, the added blurriness one sees in a few
top-secret places, courtesy of google - indicating someone wants it to stay
fuzzy... which could be part of a cash-flow strategy.
