if Rossi use the good word and the mouse is a negative feedback (beside establishing a working point temperature), it is a very good news. Until recently I felt concerned that LENR have positive sensitivity with heat, unlike fission reactor in the stable zone.
The way it can have negative feedback may be smart... maybe it is a question of hydride loading and unloading. maybe is it not really negative by 90degree phase shift, because LENR may (?) be caused not by temperature or loading, but by temperature variation and loading variation.. if the cat is also 90degree shifting, the you have simply a negative transform function... it can even be more complex with heat variation inducing loading variation, and inducing power... another kind of solution could be that the negative feed back, of the phase shift is done at specific time-scale. I suspect that Defkalion use such time-scale transfer function variety... imagine a system which is slowly supercritical at short term, and subcritical at medium term... you just can just cause pulse that fade away... it looks like what defkalion shows This is only speculation, just to show that thing can be varied... as many people said here, the question of stability and control is not easy, but there are room for engineers ingenuity. after all the real secret of of fission reactor is the negative feed back between temperature and neutron capture. 2013/12/31 Axil Axil <[email protected]> > Could it be that Rossi is using words in the wrong way to describe his > invention as follows: > > It might be that Rossi is meaning that when the temperature of the Cat > raises, the mouse is turned off.
