Dr. Celani, It is rare to see you participating in a forum so I'd like to take advantage of it to ask you a few questions. I am also direct but I hope also polite and on issue.
I have followed some reports of your work over the years and some things puzzle me greatly. Perhaps you can shed some light on these:
1. Why not increase greatly the number of wires which are heated by a single heating element? The geometry I envision is to arrange the wires to surround the heating element and I think as many as 20 or even more wires could be distributed in this manner, perhaps on a ceramic framework in concentric sets. The result, if the wires function as you say, would be to produce much more heat out for a given amount of heat in.
2. Why not employ a high precision mass flow calorimeter like the design by Giancarlo and associates found here: https://gsvit.wordpress.com/20…te-calorimetria-a-flusso/ It would seem that this type of calorimeter or perhaps a Seebeck effect calorimeter surrounding the entire experiment would give more credible result than a single or a few points of temperature measurement.
3. Finally, if your wires make sufficient heat, it should be possible to construct an insulated container in which the wires would heat themselves. Then, all power input to the experiment could be stopped after initial heating at startup and the device would become "self-running". If it could do that for a long time, without fresh wires or other fuel, this would prove to anyone, including skeptics, that the source of heat was indeed a nuclear phenomenon. Control of the system to prevent thermal runaway or meltdown could be accomplished with coolant channels and a flow controller, possibly mediated via software like LabView.
I would like to believe that your experiments really demonstrate fusion but thus far, I and many others are not convinced. Replication by an independent and credible source would also be very helpful. I am sure if you were able to follow the above suggestions and anomalous heat was still found, it would be easier to get support. Thank you for considering the above issues and thank you for adding to the value of this forum by your participation.
As for Rossi, considering all the false claims he has made in the past, I do not think many people take him seriously any more about any of his claims, especially the extravagant ones he has made for his newest devices.
