Alan plans to run the GS2 reheating, starting tonight. It will be streaming live as before, but hopefully with better resolution thanks to a new computer! Alan will start the slow warmup around 11 PM PST, then go to sleep. I'd like to have someone monitor the stream and wake me by Skype call if anything looks dangerous - any volunteers, please send a message of commitment to [email protected]

In case you missed it Alan said this about his reactor a week ago.

"After reconnecting the data system, I find that the fuelled reactor still had 13 psi of positive pressure after sitting idle for 28 days. The pressure was 32 psi at the start of this period, so there has been some permeation into the Alumina and/or continued absorption by the fuel. "

The reactor from my test April 3-4 is still fueled and still shows hydrogen pressure. I'm restarting it, using the temperature profile suggested by [lexicon]Alexander Parkhomov[/lexicon] at ICCF19. The first ramp is up to 250 C over 3 hours, where it holds for 2 hours. Then it will ramp up to 1200 C over the next six hours and hold there. It's a slow process by necessity, so check back often.

I join to the overview.

it will be a interesting day
@Denis Vasilenko are you planning something new tests soon?

Now is the experiment over after some problems. It seems no excess of heat.
New try will give new possibility.
Thanks Alan

The thermocouple finally failed at 18:00 UTC and appears to have fried the input side of the HUGnetLab board and possibly the PID controller aswell. So obviously the test was stopped at that point.

After everything cools down, I'll do some surgical disassembly (hammer and chisel) to see what caused it. The cell will be further disassembled later to extract the fuel for analysis, and the data file will be postedfor analysis by the crowd. Thanks for watching!
