I have been computing a number of time domain transitions between different outer glass temperatures versus input power levels for the Celani replication project. After a lot of hard effort I have been able to work out a process which allows me to generate excellent curve matching between the measured values and my process model. The pressure change effect is clearly visible and detrimental to an otherwise essentially perfect time fit.
The model I am using does not require any excess power to be generated in order to work properly. There is no way to be certain that the Celani concept does not actually generate extra energy, but that case is becoming easier to support as the testing progresses and our tools become more accurate. I would like to see additional calibration attempts with inactive wires to ensure that our results are solid. It would be unfortunate if this type of system does not generate additional heat since it so closely resembles other systems that we have great confidence in. I only wish that we had access to the same quality of data to review concerning operation of these other devices. It would not take long for the team to determine how well they perform. Dave
