Wherever different metals meet, and heat is available, a thermocouple may form that is capable of delivering large currents at very low voltage. Hence the need for careful measurement. (BTW, obviously not a very efficient way of generating electric power.) [snip] > > From: Axil Axil > This is another reason why I believe that Rossi is telling >the truth about his reactor.
