Status: anhängig/in Kraft
This means "pending" in german patent jargon. -
I wonder if Airbus might have been in discussions with Defkalion. They claimed to collaborate with a few large global corporations on special applications for LENR.

Looking in description:
Not excitating with RF under some temperature ?
why? to avoid gammaQuoteDisplay More
[0024]It is preferable that the controller is configured such that the field generating means does not generate the reaction generating or sustaining field if the temperature is not in the reaction chamber above a predetermined critical temperature or not in a predetermined operating temperature range.
[0034]
It is preferable that the control by the thermoelectric layer is energized to drive the field generating means for activating and / or maintaining the exothermic function upon reaching a predetermined operating temperature.
[0035]
Preferably, the thermoelectric layer provides only above a certain temperature sufficient energy that allows the controller to control the field generating means for activating and / or maintenance of the exothermic function.
Less energy is generated due to a lower temperature, therefore, the electric field is not generated.
[0045]
The LENR material and process parameters are preferably selected such that configurations are avoided where harmful electromagnetic radiation or baryonic such.
B. Neutron radiation can be avoided.
[0049]
It is assumed that in case of faulty control or monitoring and control of a dangerous radiation fields can be generated.
A dangerous radiation may occur if no collective absorption of electromagnetic radiation occurs.
This is particularly the case, if not, the reaction space is at a suitable operating temperature.
An operating temperature is a temperature above a critical temperature for LENR processes.
Customarily, particularly for Ni-catalyzed processes such operating temperatures at about 500 K or above.
In processes using carbon nanotubes, typical operating temperatures around 1000 K. Depending on the material are also lower temperatures imagine that will lie above the Debye temperature.
[0050]
If, in the reaction chamber reaches a temperature below a critical temperature or such threshold temperature, unwanted radiation may occur.
Such conditions may occur, for example in a modification by persons in a random situation or accident, or z.
As in a random increase of heat dissipation during operation.
According to one aspect of the invention, a power supply for the controller is formed such that the controller, when the reaction chamber is not located at the operating temperature and thus below a critical temperature, is not supplied with sufficient voltage or sufficient energy, and therefore no exothermic process by trigger pulses is activated.
The cell is at a sufficiently high temperature, the energy supply is sufficient, so that trigger pulses can be generated by pulse width modulation, which activate the exothermic process.Describing many feature of the fuel particles...

It is preferred that the LENR material is a LENR + material containing a fuel material with specially formed micro and / or nanoparticles to catalyze one or reacting in a LENR + process, and / or that the reaction chamber dry with LENR material containing nanoparticles and hydrogen is filled.
[0026]
It is preferred that the LENR + material micro- and / or nanoparticles made of a metal which is selected from a group comprising Ni, Pd, Ti and W, which nanoparticles with a polymer coating or coating and poloxamer with radiation- cavities or ion track method produced are provided.
[0040]
In the apparatus and method LENR processes are used, which are known in principle.
In particular LENR materials are used as they are described in WO 2009/125444 A1, EP 2368252 B1 and WO 2013/076378 A2 in principle.
Preferably, specially designed micro and / or nanoparticles are used in the material.
In a particularly preferred embodiment, the micro- and / or nanoparticles are specially coated, especially with a Poloxamerbeschichtung (PF68) as the coating in [2] is described.
Cavities therein are preferably produced by a process as described in [3].
[0044]
For example, materials and reactions are used as 2013/076378 A2 and / or WO are described in WO 2009/125444 A1.
[0107]
The tubes 24 are embedded in a foam 44, the specially designed particles - nanoparticles - made of nickel and other ingredients - coating of PF68, prepared as described in [2] described, and zirconium - containing.
This foam with nanoparticles is the LENR material 45 with which the reaction chamber 16 is filled.
[0108]
In these so designed nanoparticles cavities are generated by a well-known from [3] process.Why they shape is different from DGT ... because it is better!

[0036]
It is preferred that pipes or tubes of the heat transfer device are simultaneously formed as electrodes or poles of the field generating means.
[0072]
However, in the particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, a thermoelectric generator is not used to generate the usable, but uses a thermoelectric energy to supply the control of the reactor itself, the voltage output can be regarded as a controlled variable simultaneously.they claim some limited theory, assumption

In the process, used in particular LENR hydrogen is converted to helium gas, a great amount of useable heat is released.
The process takes place at an operating temperature, which - in contrast to the temperatures required for plasma fusion processes as such.
B. run in the sun - are easily traded in industrially produced reactors.
For this purpose, a suitable substrate made of nickel or another metal suitable for this purpose is used with a correct internal geometry, wherein attach hydrogen particles into cavities in the metal lattice.
By a pulsed electromagnetic field - or by other appropriate fields - stress zones are created in the metal and the expended energy is concentrated in very small spaces.
[0046]
The inventors believe that in such LENR processes of the hydrogen nucleus, which is a proton in particular, a nukleidinternen restructuring at the level of the weak and strong interactions is subjected.
Products on this can then be further deuterium in a reaction chain starting from deuterium He4.
The 4He is not free but bound to the substrate lattice.
The limitation or restriction on this bound state is created by the electromagnetic fields that appear in the vacancy.
[0047]
As is already known in LENR processes, resonance effects are used to enhance the electromagnetic fields.
Special effects occur at about 15 THZ and 11 microns.
The resonance effects are excited by a pulse edge which is initiated by an electromagnetic field across the electrodes.
[0066]
In the technology presented here, a dry cell is used in a preferred embodiment, ie, a reaction chamber with non-liquid filling.
Possibly can be used a gas mixture of hydrogen and / or potassium compound.
The energy for excitation in these systems is supplied to pulsed.
This allows special Systemzugstände - Rydberg atoms - are excited.
The Rydberg atoms behave electromagnetically for a short time as a neutral nucleon.
This is a merger with an electrically charged nucleus possible.
This principle is already accepted by a number of companies - see Leonardo Corporation, Defkalion Green Technology, Brillouin Energy, Bolotov.
[0078]
LENR and LENR + can not be equated with "cold fusion", but have further explanatory principles that are based on plasmon resonances; in particular find multibody dynamics rather than processes between catalyzing Nucleon and reactants, suggesting an involvement of the weak interaction of the core processes.
[0079]
The LENR + systems are preferably carried out so that it causes a controlled active environment such.
B. triggers or prepared by brief application of heat, and thus the reaction.
Through selective pulse width modulation (PWM), the process is activated and deactivated.
It is expected that the flanks of the pulse shape in the high frequency region of the resonance system or a hydrogen atom artificial, for example formed from defects, and plasmons, stimulate, and thus promote the reaction.
The system is then adjusted so that the process dies of itself if no further excitation occurs.
[0110]
The locations of the hydrogen nuclei are in this configuration, a high electromagnetic stress or load and can thus undermined different exothermic reaction channels, as described by the LENR- technology, which in turn is defined as follows:
Due to the temporary nature of the discharge are all frequencies that can excite hydrogen in the lattice near the cavity reached.
Specifically, the natural frequencies below the lowest orbital (sub-low orbit own frequencies) are responsible for the combination of two hydrogen nuclei and the exothermic process.
These natural frequencies are further supported based on the Stefan-Boltzmann law for blackbody radiation, the Gamow-frequency is in resonance with the optical particle size.
To achieve this goal, a Schaumkavitätgröße of 7 nm should be generated in the foam-forming method, but can also function different Kavitätsgrößen.
The result of the reaction is a deuterium-core, which results from an electromagnetically coupled state of the two hydrogen protons near the wall of the coated nickel nanopowder.
Other processes towards He4 occur in the presence of zirconium.
The EM excitation generates EM waves at the surface of nano powder particles.
Along the wall boundary layer, the hydronium adhered to by chemical bond forces.
The voids in the grid array, which are generated by the Schaumprozessingredenzien, electron pair of a pair of hydrogen-vacancy in the lattice and generate quasi-atoms (quantum dots).
At this point the hydronium polarized and can couple with the neighboring hydronium to form a "quasi-deuterium".
This bound state has a lower energy than that for the unladen grid and the free hydrogen.
This energy is transferred by a mechanical multibody process on the grid.
The multi-body process is based on electromagnetic (EM) forces and Phononentransfer.They criticize other reactor, which look like E-cat, or wet cells, or vaccuum

So far, though LENR cells are already known, but they work with the risk of unstable exothermic effects that can lead to failure or harmful explosions or harmful radiation.
Also pulsed systems are possible, but they are not self-sustaining, not self-sufficient.
A pulse of energy is used to heat the operating temperature for the reaction.
At the operating temperature of the exothermic process is initiated.
This process is stable, but stopped after a period of time on.
According to this second type of known LENR process is stable, but not self-sustaining and self-sufficient.
It has a low efficiency compared to stand-alone systems and therefore need additional external power and control.
[0060]So far, we expected that LENR cells must have a vacuum in the internal mechanism or a wet operating environment.However, high internal mechanical shock can occur by vacuum or wet operating environment that cause stress due to mechanical loads. Under environmental stresses, suchB. oscillations or vibrations may occur.Because of this property previously conceived LENR cells, the reliability is deteriorated when operating in a vehicle or in the transport sector.
and they claim their technology allow vehicles ulike othersQuoteDisplay More[0062]
Preferably, each cell core unit is designed in a very compact design.
As a result, high reliability can be expected since only low internal stresses occur under operating environments.
Compact design is energy cells for other conventional energy conversion systems already prior art; but the combination of a LENR cell with a compact load-free mechanical design is not known.
[0063]
Due to the characteristics of the self-sufficient while stable system and compact design, a LENR technology for the first time in such a manner that they can be used in systems with strong mechanical vibrations that can often occur in the transport sector.All that allows you to understand the interest of the invention and the role of the claims.
It seems to be far from a paper patent.
