    Still (perhaps) to be explained by the Russian: Thermionic emission (electron emission) from a hot cathode (e.g. Thoriated Tungsten) in a vacuum tube (evacuated of air tubular shaped envelope); related: TWT (Traveling Wave Tube operation wherein electron 'bunches' transfer energy), Magnetrons (where in electrons under magnetic field influence excite 'cavities' within the tube to produce microwave energy), doping of semiconductor crystals for either excess electrons (N type material) or a deficit (P type material).


    I think cats fur rubbed against a glass rod (resulting in the subsequent movement and transfer of charges) has been covered in previous posts.

    It would help if they got, at least, the electron 'right' like Dr. Mills does. That would be a BIG step forward ... meanwhile, the rest looks like so much noise. The presentations during the IAP sessions at MIT were MOST impressive a few years back, but, where is the scale-up of the NANORS by Dr. M. Swartz? Working theory leads to working devices, again, ala Mills.

    and he said it was custom.

    It's NI LabVIEW. ALL signs point to LabVIEW as seen on the pic posted earlier. There is _no_ better language, with its rich selection of 'tools', widgets and functions (lying unseen behind the scenes doing the work) than LabVIEW for doing this kind of work. He probably subcontracted that work out, and doesn't know what the developer used.

    The control panel software is full-custom and looks great.

    From the appearance of the 'controls' on the panel it looks like an NI LabVIEW application ... I have done similar applications. LabVIEW is an excellent choice for this sort of work. All manner of graphical images can be added to the application front panel, as is seen in those photos.

    Is there any cooling on these experiments? How much heat are they actually producing? Why is it taking so long? Where is a closed loop test?

    Okay, "Walmart" shopper ... those details will be on the back of the shrink-wrapped, bubble-packed blister-pack you pick up in the hardware section ...


    Failure to have paid attention to incremental progress up to this point leads to these kinds of questions, and you expect a one-line answer? His investors have done their due-diligence, no one else apparently is capable of doing so with publicly available information, which Mills has actually been quite generous with? That's all I can conclude ...

    There is not a cloud in the sky, only the stuff the planes leave behind, Is that normal I ask?!

    Since WW2, when "contrails" (literally, "condensation trails") were observed to occur from high-flying aircraft. If you search on the internet, you can find pictures showing fleets of propeller-driven high-flying aircraft leaving contrails in World War 2 ...

    Supply and Demand Curve today - the idea here is to keep a 'margin' between the upper trace and the lower trace. If the traces meet, there is _no_ margin and any generator failure on the ERCOT system will pull down system voltage and frequency *since* there is no margin to replace the lost generation source. When voltage drops below a preset point and/or frequency drops below preset points, under-voltage and under-frequency "relays" kick-in and shed load from and at each generator in the system.


    In Texas, on a day like today, there are in excess of 1,000 power generation units in service, attached to the grid, feeding power into the grid at a multitude of points.


    ERCOT Issues Conservation Appeal to Texans and Texas Businesses

    Factors driving the need for this important action by customers:

    • Record high electric demand. The heat wave that has settled on Texas and much of the central United States is driving increased electric use. Other grid operators are operating under similar conservative operations programs as ERCOT due to the heatwave.
    • Low wind. While solar power is generally reaching near full generation capacity, wind generation is currently generating significantly less than what it historically generated in this time period. Current projections show wind generation coming in less than 10 percent of its capacity.

    By the time these 'articles' get written, Act I of the play has already closed out! Here's a graphical recap of the wind today - it was just after 12 "noon", about 1 PM, when wind was minimum today and it picked back up after that -



    Note: Left side of graph is MW, so top scale is 20,000 MW (where MW = MegaWatt)

    Endless scam of fake news. Why don't they correctly write di-hydrino??? There is no Hydrino state point end.

    I don't think you understand any of the observational lab-testing they have made, and present, in detail. To that end, can you be trusted for ANY observational lab-testing, even your own at this point? The evidence for my last point seems overwhelming ... no wonder LANR/LENR is turning into 'the never ending story'. Mills has devices - where is yours, demonstrating *your* 'effect' and theory?

    GUTCP postulates a zoo of Hydrinos. So far Mills found none of them

    Abstract

    Quantum mechanics postulates that the hydrogen atom has a stable ground state from which it can be promoted to excited states by capture of electromagnetic radiation, with the energy of all possible states given by En = −13.598/n2 eV, in which n ≥ 1 is a positive integer. It has been previously proposed that the n = 1 state is not the true ground state, and that so-called hydrino states of lower energy can exist, which are characterized by fractional quantum numbers n = 1/p, in which 1 < p ≤ 137 is a limited integer. Electron transition to a hydrino state, H(1/p) is non-radiative and requires a quantized amount of energy, 2mE1 (m is an integer), to be transferred to a catalyst. Numerous putative hydrino-forming reactions have been previously explored and the products have been characterized by a range of analytical methods. Molecular hydrino has been predicted to be paramagnetic. Here, we give an account of an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) study of molecular hydrino H2(1/4) that was produced as gaseous inclusion in polymeric Ga(O)OH by a plasma reaction of atomic hydrogen with non-hydrogen bonded water as the catalyst. A sharp, complex, multi-line EPR spectrum is found, whose detailed properties prove to be consistent with predictions from hydrino theory. Molecular hydrino was also identified in gas chromatography as a compound faster than molecular hydrogen.

    In the U.S., grid losses are 5% for transportation and distribution (T&D) combined. Not 20%.

    WELCOME to 'lying by statistics'; Expect larger losses for those longer transmission line runs from say Washington State etc down to loads in California and Canada (like Hydro) down into load centers e.g. the NE US incl the NYC area, versus shorter 100+ mile hops in other areas; so the 'aggregate' 5% figure can be quite misleading ...

    It was obvious from the very first paper that cold fusion cannot be chemical. F&P wrote: "It is inconceivable that this could be due to anything but nuclear processes.” They were right!

    Then again, as noted by the late Dr. Eugene F. Mallove almost two decades back now, these reactions could be Hydrino in nature ... see paper presented at ICCF10, August 2003 https://www.infinite-energy.com/resources/iccf10.html


    Quick, condensed excerpt (for brevity):

    In the spring of 1991, Dr. Randell Mills et al. reported significant excess heat from ordinary water cells with nickel electrodes, an energy which they deemed to be coming not from nuclear reactions, but from a new form of catalyzed shrinkage reaction via a drastically remodeled form of the hydrogen atom and a re-write of quantum mechanics, which is now called by Mills "Classical Quantum Mechanics" (CQM) [Now called "GUTCP" for Grand Unified Theory of Classical Physics].

    ...

    CF/LENR scientists, themselves outcasts from the Establishment, strangely enough have not paid much attention to Mills' experimental work. This is most unfortunate, because it is compendious and strongly supportive of excess heat but also of non-standard, highly anomalous, spectral anomalies from hydrogen systems.


    This stance can be explained because of the very strong resistance by CF/LENR theorists to exploring foundational flaws in Standard Quantum Mechanics (SQM). Mills' CQM [GUTCP] work could shed considerable light on the problem of CF/LENR- these are results that cannot and should not be logically separated from efforts to understand CF/LENR results proper.

    ...

    But Mills, while accepting that his "shrunken" (sub-ground state) hydrogen atoms ("hydrinos") may well cause nuclear reactions due to their more charge-neutral presentation to other nuclei, does not believe that the excess heat being reported in CF/LENR experiments is of nuclear origin- i.e. the direct result of nuclear reactions

    ...

    Mills' CQM theory ... does have two characteristics that recommend it:


    A. It seems to have very significant predictive power to suggest what hydrogen systems are likely to evolve excess heat, and which ones may not (more such predictive ability than most CF/LENR concepts), and


    B. CQM is not beholden to the "mainstream cold fusion hypothesis" (MCFH)- i.e. at least it allows the possibility that many instances of excess heat are not of nuclear origin per se.

    ...

    Mills et al. at BlackLight Power Corp. in Cranbury, New Jersey have mounted what is one of the most direct threats ever to the entire foundation of Quantum Mechanics, because the compendious experimental data sets- if valid- prima facie cannot be explained by Standard Quantum Mechanics (SQM). There is convincing excess energy data of large magnitude and there are spectral emission lines that do not correspond to previously recognized atomic structure.

    How does the above differ from this seminal work by Heinrich Hertz?
