Speaking of "intentional deception" in a patent application ... (which BTW voids that patent application if it can be proved - and is not tolerated by USPTO) there is the issue of MHD.
Any patent or claim that proposes to convert heat into electricity based on MHD is probably nothing but hot air, unless... they have benefitted from the Russian connection (to be explained). It has been a dozen years since this first came up, but now, it is all starting to makes sense. (unless, of course, the following explanation is giving BLP more credit than they deserve). Any direct conversion feature (heat into electricity) would be highly unlikely without the Russian resource, since there is no commercially available hardware in the USA to accomplish the task. Literally billions of dollars were been spent over the past 50 years trying to adapt MHD conversion to coal and natural gas as the first stage of a compound system with steam second. NASA and DoE both failed. The technical challenges are overwhelming. In fact, the only place where commercial MHD was placed into actual service was Russia. Japan may have licensed the tech from Russia. This comes to mind now, since there was indeed a type of direct conversion device which is similar to MHD and was the primary part of an earlier BLP effort known the "reverse gyrotron". To become an informed observer on this demo next week, one can best understand the present situation with bit of history - and with an appreciation of "Cuccia coupling". (short summary: Cuccia coupling is the only known way to convert UV, which is where the hydrino energy originates, into electron acceleration and it is done via microwave as the coupling agent). Once UV is absorbed, the hot electrons are separated by vector alteration and collected on an electrode, just as if we were dealing with a high powered triode. OK - This device may not be part of the upcoming demo, since Mills has lowered expectations to almost zero - but to my thinking in the historical context, it would be the one detail which would not only make this demo into something extremely important, but also clarify what is going on. An associate who followed BLP closely before he died - related that years ago (circa 2002) when Mills failed to adapt a gyrotron successfully in his first version, the Russian group below contacted BLP with a working model of a device that could do it, but Mills' ego was such that he rebuffed them. Perhaps he had a change of heart - and now, a decade later - we see the results. I see one of the Russian papers is still up. Pictures of the working model gyrotron are shown. Maybe BLP came to its senses and is now working with whatever capitalist company in the "New Russia" took over this technology. Or maybe BLP was waiting on their patent to expire, who knows? http://jre.cplire.ru/jre/sep99/1/text.html It is possible that Mills has adapted a Russian gyrotron device to do this. Otherwise, the chances that a home-grown MHD system is being used for direct conversion seem slim-to-none, due to the extreme technical challenge. Even Mills does not have the financial resource for that. Jones
