There is no silly trick, and I did not touch or change anything of the the calorimeter.
If this was done the other way around, it would seem no less miraculous than other examples.

Just as I suspected, the Laws of Nature (so called Constants) are stochastic. Someone is apparently hacking the OS of the universe simulation we call reality. Not me, but I'd love a button for Undo!

I am surprised at how incurious the crowd is at the report of Insufficient Heat.
Anyways, I am working on it.

An endothermic reaction? My reaction is, it is probably a mistake. Maybe not. The other day Mizuno asked me if I have heard of endothermic reactions in cold fusion, other than the expected chemical effects at the beginning of an electrochemical experiment. I said I have not heard of any. I don't why he asked. I will let him know about your results.

I'm reminded of Brian Ahern's study of the Manelas sample. It's a reported example of a non-chemical endothermic effect.

There was no reactant, so I doubt that anything endothermic happened, especially for 4 1/2 hours.
I did just now check to see that water was boiling at 100 C with the temperature data logger, and it did.
I know how I precipitated the event, but duplicating it exactly is something that I am quite reticent to try again. I am now working out how to do something similar, but more safely.
Just a hunch, but perhaps this would work more easily in Japan than the USA. I am not sure enough about that to say that with anything other than just a hunch that could easily be wrong.It might be interesting to see if successful replications of Mizuno cluster in certain countries, though.

Let me clear that I have strong doubts as to how something similar could happen (reversed) to Mizuno or others in such a way that only the active reactor design would show apparent positive results and not the control.
-
The temperature seems to be back to the usual range this time.
Have to wait to see if the usual Delta T comes back too. It barely made it to a delta of 9.7 C last time, when closer to 14+ C is more usual.
Edit: The Delta T has come back, confirming the increased temperature is real.
Now to see if I can make it cold again....

We many times could see short periods of endothermic reaction behavior. And also Takahashi is fighting to understand it . See TC4 behavior.

Wyttenbach May be if the system pumps energy it may also creates matter ...?

Yes. I mentioned Takahashi to Mizuno, and sent him some reports. (I forgot to mention that here.)

Did you ask Mizuno about the source of the Palladium he used?

Yesterday I finished de-loading the cell, then added 350 Pa of fresh D2. The cell was left at ambient temp overnight, and finished this morning at 173 Pa (loading ratio 0.21).

can Thanks for your excellent graphing. Regarding timing of this run, figure 6 of the Mizuno/Rothwell report seems to show excess heat appearing in R20 almost immediately, though we don't know the timing of any precursor steps. Figure 8 of that report also shows that significant heat doesn't appear until the cell reached around 250 C. So for this run, it seems the goal should be to aim for higher heater power rather than longer dwell at the lower operating points. So I will step to 80 watts (cal=249 C) next.
-
Hmmm.
Seems to doing the normal thing again, this test, although I thought it would go low this time.
I guess I will try a few undangerous things and see if any have an effect. -

It seems there was an outgassing event during the 80W step, judging by pressure behavior.

I thought I knew what was going on, but disproved it with another perfectly normal run. I am just about to shut off the heater for cool down and will check the data in about 2 hours. But with a delta T of 13 and 493 C it looks normal. So more or less I have no idea what happened on Wednesday.
I will reveal what I found Wednesday morning before the anomalous test, now.
After apparently “pushing” the electrical noise around for a while, doing diagnostics, I checked the main electrical service panel for the whole house and found that the main ground cable where it should bond to the main neutral cable from the pole was dead loose. Like almost two full turns of the set screw loose. So a basically floating neutral for the whole house. So I tightened up everything in the panel that I could (all else fine), then ran the anomalous Wednesday test.
Seeing the suddenly low heat, I figured that the floating neutral caused the AC voltage to climb, giving more heat for my earlier tests. So in theory all subsequent tests should have come out with lower heat than before fixing the ground. But the next two tests look like all the others. Just the one test is low. And the temperatures are reported independently from the heater power so it is hard to fool the whole system by messing with one variable.
