Dave, that was my first thought too, but in going over the construction of the heater coils, it turned out to be a pain to deal with the heater wire cross-overs. You would not do this just because you were planning to connect the array to a 3-phase supply. You could simply have an array of 3N, have single phase coils, and balance each phase with the single phase coils in the array device. To go to the trouble of making each unit 3-phase demands a better reason. I posted earlier that I believe that the 3-phase is specifically used to create a linear moving field (like a linear motor) to circulate the lithium plasma that likely forms at high temperature. This would make the device much more uniformly heated in the face of chaotic LENR occurring inside the reactor and would help avoid hot spots.
