Let us work together to build a publically accessible 2 kW reactor

Dear all,

i am thinking that now since Alexander Parkhomov demonstrated a working reactor showing all it's internal components.

If Mr. Parkhomov is willing to help and advise with his knowledge (I suppose he will be stopped by the russian government who want to force him to work for them and keep everything secret from now on), we could do the following:

Why shouldn't we try to mobilize as many people as possible who are willing to donate and work together to build a large reactor, that is actually capable of supplying electrical power and that we open to the public so everyone who is interested can come and convince him/herself of it's operation?

What better way could there be to convince all the sceptics?

We have to ask different groups who will probably show interest, like greenpeace and so on.

Let us start advertising and send thousands of e-mails and letters.

After all we have seen so far we have to make sure that the heat insulation is good enough to keep the reactor at thermal equilibrium with dE_generated/dt=dE_dissipated/dt and T=const.

Then the temperature of the reactor will not drop and the reaction rate should remain constant.

We have to think about whether to choose a boiling water or pressurized water reactor design.

Parkhomov proved: It is not difficult to build the reactor. At least not for professional researchers and engineers.

Rossi wanted us to think so, yes. There is only one reason why this technology is not spread already. Rossi has not started to sell the reactors because he is forced to withhold. He is forced to "integrate" the ecat into the market. As he continues to say in his blog. And in this case "integrate" is just a circumscription to say: People, I am forced to restrain my work by the oil tycoons. They want to stay billionaires and multi-millionaires by polluting our environment and destroying the future of our children.

This technology does not just have the potential to "integrate", it has the potential to completely destroy and rebuild the market.

Some powerful, very powerful people don't want to lose their invested money in oil technology.

We need real street demonstrations.

Hello Me356,

what do you think about starting to advertise or even public demonstrations?

It is an interesting idea, but it is very difficult to develope a reactor.
We see that Rossi took years to reach the good performance, reliability, from a non negligible budget.

There is others direction to help LENr to develop.

One is to raise…

I tried lobbying and I even spoke to some official from the ministry of economy but he redirected me to the (scepticistic) science community. "I should convince a professor
to do the experiments again..." he said... although Parkhomov already proved it without doubt.

If people really wanted it, probably within 5-10 years we could all be using this technology. This way it will take decades and damage to our environment will already be too severe.

I constantly hear people stating that the development is difficult because it took Rossi many years.

It is actually relatively simple!

There is NO need for shielding against radioactivity.

There is seemingly(!) no risk of uncontrolled chain reactions because the reactions are bound to the solid state. A melting of Ni is halting the reactions!

So why are you saying it is more difficult than building a fission reactor?

It is evidently not.

Rossi is a good chemist. But he is neither a physicist nor a nuclear engineer nor an electrical engineer.

He is one person and his company is ridiculous.

Just because it took him many years it does not mean the development is difficult in general given all available resources of the world.

Now, one can ask why should we use all available resources.

Well, because this technology is probably the most important of the first half of this century.

And it is important for each and everyone of us. Seriously... renewable energies will not save us. It occupies too much area and does not leave enough room for 10+x billion people. The energy density is too small.

So I ask why should we NOT use all available resources?!!!

Forget about the f**** Mars missions while there is still hunger and starvation and far too expensive energy here.

We are not talking about the new iPhone, damn it!

This technology has new dimension of importance.

@me356

I was talking about these kind of demonstrations

@me356

We don't just have indications.

A working "ecat" was installed by Rossi at a factory side of a company. They are reporting that it is working.

Maybe more importantly an experienced physicist proved that a mixture of lialh4 and Ni is emitting heat which does not originate from chemical reactions.

1g emitted 2 kW so 1000 kg will emit 2 GW just as the largest nuclear plants do.

We already arrived at the last phase you are speaking of: The technology is ready for industrial R&D and a large scale prototype but it is hidden.

But this is still only "Rossi said...". We still can only trust what Rossi says. We don't have…

You can forget about Rossi, but Parkhomov proved it.

Of course I agree, undoubtable proof means you either do the experiment yourself or a "renowned" university is doing it and publishing a paper in a "renowned" journal.

But that's the catch! This is not going to happen without enough people trying to convince professors at a university to replicate the experiment.

They all have their own research in some other field and LENR is discredited as being complete physical non-sense. Even daring to do an experiment related with LENR is putting your career at a risk. So no one dares.

Possible.
But in my oppinion the right way to convince university scientists is…

I hope you are right! That would be great. I think this is becoming off topic, but: Did the MFMP say which universities they want to send the reactors to?
