Axil, You should have read the Vortex posting I may recently, repeated below (the data on arcing is especially informative) -
Lattice Energy LLC- Technical Discussion-NTSB Logan Dreamliner Runaway Data Suggest High Local Temps-May 7 2013 http://www.slideshare.net/lewisglarsen/lattice-energy-llc-technical-discussionntsb-logan-dreamliner-runaway-data-suggest-high-local-tempsmay-7-2013 The discussion of the energetics of electrical arcs is quite interesting. The temperatures, current and power densities attainable in low voltage arcs is quite counter-intuitive. Also, perhaps worth noting, is that crack formation on metal surfaces initiate breakdown discharges that create micro-volcanic ejecta sites. -- Lou Pagnucco Axil wrote: > http://www.bizjournals.com/seattle/blog/techflash/2013/03/details-emerge-on-boeing-787.html > > *Details emerge on Boeing 787 lithium-ion battery fix; FAA testing half > over > * > > Could LENR be proved by the meltdown of the Lithium batteries through the > structure of the Dreamliner. > > The cause of the battery fires is not yet known.
