ICCF-24 updates and other Anthropocene/ARPA-E news

  • 105,120,002 1kw LENR Electric energy tech units a year. From one factory.

    I suppose...

    As I said, 1 kW is too small for most applications. You want a range of sizes from 1 kW up to ~100 MW. Most of them on the low end, with the average around 20 kW. That is for electricity. For automotive engines you need ~100 kW per unit.


    Why would you make them all at one factory?!? That makes no sense. You would have to ship them long distances. What if something happens to that factory, such a fire or an earthquake? We do not make all automobiles in factory, or all chocolate bars, ladders, or insulin. Why would we make all cold fusion devices. There should be factories in many countries all around the world.

  • all at one factory?!?

    One cell phone mega factory was used as an example. There are many cell phone mega factories all over the world.

    A battery giga factory would be another example of how rapidly 1kw LENR Electric solid state CMNS energy gadgets could be churned out. I think the complexity of a smart phone makes it a better example.

    The race to dominate battery giga factories is certainly of interest. Similar enough to imagine such a race to fill world energy needs similarly, no?

    1kw is easy. Electrical engineers know how to wire these together for 10 or 100 or 1000... in a nice box.

    Title

    WE ARE OVER ELON MUSK’S 100 GIGAFACTORY TARGET FOR SUSTAINABLE ENERGY: DO WE NEED A TERAFACTORY? 17th May 2020

    Quote

    In a 2016 National Geographic documentary, Before The Flood, Leo DiCaprio looked at an array of technologies that could move the world to a low carbon future.


    The documentary led DiCaprio to meet Elon Musk at a Tesla Gigafactory in Nevada that was under construction. They had the following exchange:


    Elon Musk: “Batteries are critical to a sustainable energy future.


    “We did calculations…what would it take to transition the whole world to sustainable energy, what kind of [battery cell] throughput would you actually need… You would need 100 gigafactories…


    Leo DiCaprio: “100 of these…that would make the United States…


    EM: No, the whole world


    LDC: The whole world?


    EM: All energy


    LDC: That’s it?


    EM: Yeah


    LDC: That sounds manageable

    I think the significance of the location, and gravitas of the sponsor has triggered the curiosity of people and organizations that would not have otherwise been interested. And we can also thank Team Google for laying the groundwork so these people could sponsor, attend, and participate without facing backlash by their mainstream colleagues. That was one of TG's stated goals; to make CF cool again. Get rid of the stigma so everyone could look at it on it's merits.

    Now from where will come sufficient great xsh, results to interest them enough to consider a relative fast plus value ?

    it reminds me the former Padua atmosphere where we have seen the Brazilian economic minister.

    WO2020077269A1 - Methods and apparatus for facilitating localized nuclear fusion reactions enhanced by electron screening - Google Patents

    TITLE

    METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR FACILITATING LOCALIZED NUCLEAR FUSION REACTIONS ENHANCED BY ELECTRON SCREENING

    CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

    [0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/744,867 filed October 12, 2018. The subject matter of this earlier filed application is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

    STATEMENT OF FEDERAL RIGHTS

    [0002] This invention was made with government support under Contract Nos. NNC14CA16C and 80GRC017C0021 awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The U.S. Government has certain rights in the invention.

    FIELD

    [0003] The present invention generally relates to nuclear technologies, and more particularly, to methods and apparatuses for facilitating localized nuclear fusion reactions enhanced by electron screening.

    Abstract

    Methods and apparatuses for facilitating localized nuclear fusion reactions in a globally cold deeply screened fuel source are disclosed, where the volume of cold fuel is much larger than that of hot fuel participating in fission reactions, maintaining structural integrity. Such a deeply screened environment may facilitate the combination of shell and conduction electrons and plasma channels created from external x-ray and/or gamma irradiation. Deeply screened fuel nuclei can tunnel at lower energies, and can much more effectively scatter at high angles, leading to increased tunneling probabilities. Local "hot" fusion conditions may be created by providing neutral hot particles (e.g., hot neutrons) that are substantially more effective at high angle scattering off charged fuel nuclei and can deliver around a half of their kinetic energy in one collision to result in a hot fuel nucleus. Such methods and apparatuses may have various applications, such as heat or medical isotope production.

  • Akito Takahashi says...


    I am confident of our results by Gas Loaded Powders: conference paper and presentation slides as;

    (PDF) Characteristics of Excess Power Generation in MHE Experiments by D-System (researchgate.net)

    (PDF) Characteristics of Excess Power Generation in MHE Experiments by D-System (researchgate.net)

    : giving an answer.

    High heat power reproducibility by light hydrogen gas and nano-composite CuNi/zirconia powder at over H-loaded (H/Ni>1.0) condition at elevated temperature is attained. Irrefutability is seen by no alternative explanations than the TSC theory.

    (This is our stressing points again at ICCF24 with our two presentations by M. Hasegawa and by A. Takahashi: https://www.iccf24.org/program )

    I think, the generation of sustainable clean high density heat power by the light hydrogen “nuclear” reaction is of most important point. Irrefutable common theoretical explanation to cover both H-system (light hydrogen) and D-system (deuterium) is of key in underlying physics

  • By the sounds of it there are already several teams in the running for the X-Prize. The committee that will meet during the ICCF to iron out the details will probably need to take that into account and set the bar high.

  • Might the Ultimate X--Prize be full market entry and replacement of halF of all carbon based energy by 2030?


    All together now, perhaps not too high of a setting on the bar. I believe that, collectively, it can be done 👍


    Cold Fusion All Together Now


    Sort of a catchy phrase...


    Having the X--Prize ICCF-24 committee deliberations during the conference sounds great. An amazing task, qualified people... I wish them well and look forward to the final presentation.
