TACTICAL LENR BATTLES- DAY 4

MOTTO

The weakest link in a chain is the strongest because it can break it. (Stanislaw Jerzy Lec)

To continue where I have interrupted yesterday: we don't know the roles in the Hot Cat Opera.
Ni, Li, H, Al,?,?... I have already told you that  all the operas are the same (the tenor wants to make love to the soprano, but the baritone tries to prevent this). If Li is really essential than
perhaps the unique ingredient we can use is this nasty LiAlH4. But what is then the role of H -besides making high pressure (not measured in real conditions but causing explosions and harm.). Is the high pressure a necessary condition for the useful reactions? Our temporary ignorance goes so far that we have no idea that alumina is also participating in any way at the process, or we can make reactors from other, more refractory materials?
LIALH4 is difficult to manage and Svein Utne has written:
 A Proposal to help widespread LENR replication effort:

Excellent, but perhaps not radical enough. It seems the weakest link in the replication saga is the building of the reactor's body - this is difficult and time consuming. I think after knowing if the mixture used by Parkhomov- 1 gr. Ni powder+ 100 mgr LiAl H4 works- a first action would be finding a specialized unit for manufacturing good quality ceramic (alumina plus ceramic adhesive of optimized composition- selling tens of this reactors. Some ready charged with the active stuff, some charged only with nickel powder, some for trying alternative compositions.
Similarly it will be very useful to work out and standardize (in some limits) the calorimeter 
part of the device. 
I hope the electrical part- resistors can be made a strong link in the chain. For those who have problems, there is the alternative imagined by me- heating the  reactor with molten tin from 1000 to, say, 1300 C, nix electricity but perhaps it works. Rossi has studied a gas heated E-Cat too.
Tomorrow it will be a very important day of the Parkhomoviada- an experiment performed in collaboration with Bob Greenyer from MFMP. Following it, it will be easier to organize effectively and efficiently- the W.W. Replication Campaign.

The first 3 links here- a relevant combination- we do not have separate Information, Energy and Materials Revolutions see please: 
http://egooutpeters.blogspot.ro/2011/08/technology-mon-amour.html

The three revolutions are interpenetrated and interdependent. Unfortunately Cognitence and Probletence - simply bad, ill thinking annihilate great part of the positive effect of Technology revolution and make dreadful things as sadistic crimes for the sake of the Good and genocides  for an idealistic pure future- very possible.

  1. Hi,
    Nice to see you liked my proposal.
    Also I think we need some electronic guru that could sell maybe Arduino with equipment for measuring the temperature, current and voltage, and log this data.
    The last part is the heating coil.
    Maybe the MFMP people could initiate this after the return from Moscow. Then they have maybe more knowledge of what is needed and what task others could help doing.
    What we need is someone to coordinate this, specifying the tasks, giving lings to person willing to do their parts, and collection the data and presenting it on the web.
    Then it will be like a race to find the combination that makes the system run at a lower temperature, or more stable or with a higher COP.
    The ideal situation would be to find a way to make it start at only 400-600 degrees Celsius and then have some powder that will absorb Hydrogen at higher pressure if the temperature keep rising to 1000 degrees, so is will run by itself between 400-1000 degrees with no input power.
    Interesting times.

    1. Dear Svein,

      surely I have like your rational and pragmatic proposal.
      I agree with your other ideas exposed here- and I think after getting the data from Parkhomov- MFMP we shall discuss- protocol, plan etc and try to find a coordinator entity.
      Direct correspondence, I will write to you.
      Best,
      Peter

      PS It seems at 500-600 the reaction needs some additives, Hot Cat works only at very high temperatures.

      PS 2- The silence of the Lugano Testers is disturbing.

  2. Hi Peter,
    I got several proposals on how we can get his testing rolling in a larger scale.
    We could have a list where peoples put down what mix of powder they wanted to test, and then a different column for sponsors. If they want to pay for it themselves, they will also be the sponsor, but there could be a long list of sponsors on a specific mix, and when the sponsored amount reached a surten value, the bone was put in production.
    Regards
    Svein

    1. Thanks,

      let's wait the experiment of tomorrow
      if you do not mind, please write me to peter.gluck@gmail.com

      tack!

  3. Rossi's current reactor design is a Rube Goldberg Machine. In engineering, KISS is the rule. keep it simple. The best route to a functional LENR reactor is the fuel cell technology that uses ions to produce electricity directly from the LENR reaction through the use of ionic membranes.

  4. I have already built and tested a very inexpensive arduino based thermocouple logging system.

    *It will soon be posted to http://nilih.com and will be followed by a hydrogen sensing system.*

    Total cost can go below $20 USD for a single K-type entire system which can serve data live to the internet and can automatically email data to a mailing list. Each additional channel adds about $10 USD to the system cost.

  5. Hi Nicholas
    That is very good.
    I think we need to sample room temperature and maybe two high temp probes just to detect if one high temp thermocopler is drifting. Then voltage and current.
    What more do we need? Date and time of course, but what else?
    How often do we need to sample? Every second? or every 5 sec?
    Regards
    Svein
