  • Collective QED...

    Quote from AlainCo

    Today I've attended LENRG Conference...
    Manythings were discussed (business proposal, scientific programs, collaborations, business model) and I'll have to work to make few articles...


    However to explain the concept of collective Quantum…


    Alain,
    Being an electrical engineer, it seems to me that while the metronomes are asynchronous, their collective energy is minimal. When they are synchronized due to ancommon base (the bottom on which they are attached is not fully damped and can move), then their energy becomes massive with an high Q-factor which combines the energy of alle thee indivudual metronomes. It is like a resonating flute, where all the individual air molecules combine together to produce a tone, or speaking in the electrical metafore a 'L-C resonator'. An undaped resonator can reach enormous powers and I assume that Luca Gamberale thinks that that may be the 'force' behind LENR. It is like Axil's vortex which does th same.

  • MFMP GlowStick Test-Run today

    Quote from me356

    Sad news, but I believe it will work next time!


    Can somebody show/tell me connection of the heater? Maybe using variac is not the best method. You can control the input power with for example triac - there are finished PCBs from ebay for even $3 that are able to handle 2000W.


    The difficulty is that it is not easy to make a resister coil such that it exactly suits all requirements: Maximum available voltage and current (mains supply)
    Maximum required power. Maximum and minimum currents that can be controlled with the temperature controller. It is difficult to adjust those with the wire diameters that are available and the power you want to deliver to the small area of the heater coil. 8)

  • MFMP GlowStick Test-Run today

    Quote from barty

    Disappointing information: The test showed no excess heat! ;(
    But due to the power supply Alan Goldwater was not able to get more than 900°C.
    So he was not able to get the same conditions Parkhomov and Lugano had.



    I wonder why that was not discovered when they did the fuel-less test... ?(

  • ICCF-19 forbids attendance of Ugo Abundo's association

    Quote from barty

    Quote: “<b>The Committtee of ICCF19 decided not to give voice to the Open Science Research in Italy! And We of Open Power.</b>


    As you can see in Our newsletter of April, in PDF attachment, the Committtee of ICCF19 decided not to give voice to the Open Science…


    I do not know the Open Power Association but I assume they are focussed to LENR. What can be the reason for ICCF to leave them out?

  • LENR at Tohoku University by Yasuhiro Iwamura

    Finally universities start to show interest in LENR!
    I hope it will lead to a snowball effect and that many others follow. :D

  • Join the Demonstration for LENR! May, 2, 2015

    Marjorana, that is exactly what I try to organize in the Netherlands. One group of four students has just started to do such an attempt. I am trying to involve more technical colleges (bachelor level) for doing the same. The more the better and I am being supported by several websites! I hope our initiative spreads around the world and that Cold Fusion becomes mainstream soon. :thumbup:

  • Vessela Nikolova: independent confirmation Lugano Testers continue to investigate

    I am quite surprised that Cern now seriously inverstigates LENR. I know from inside information that Cern was one of the parties that deliberately torpedoed the Pons and Fleischmann investigation and made Cold Fusion a pseudo science, shame on them! Therefore I do not trust them and assume that they will use the knowledge to again ban CF to enable them to continue building Ither in France.

  • Brian Ahern: Parkhomov replication

    Exciting Brian!
    According to Axil EM radiation may play an important role to both the initiation and the damping of the LENR effect. For this reason the impedance of the heating coil and control circuit may be important and should be as low as possible. Because of this reason you should not drive your heating circuit via a transformer. If you need to use a transformer you may put a small capacitor (High Frequency) over the heating coil. That may be important to damp the LENR runaway and avoid hot spots and exploding reactors.
    BTW, from next week Monday onward I will guide four University students (Technical Physics) with a similar attempt. I will be following your attempts closely and wish you all the luck.

  • Rossi is not indispensable anymore for Industrial Heat

    Maybe the deal between IH and Rossi was as follows:
    IH: "You reveal to us how an E-cat can be made and we make a working reactor. If it works, then we offer you $ 13 M and a place to develop a 1MW plant that must be brought to one of our customers. You are further free to do any new development as you like. If the 1MW plant works and to full satisfaction of our customer during 365 of the 400 days, we offer you full support for commercialization of the E-cat, which you can supply under your own name. We will take 50% of your profit".


    What do you think?

  • planning stage for a replication

    For an arc you need some level of vacuum or a very high voltage (about 1000V/mm at normal air pressure). It helps when the nickel is evenly spread over the full length of the tube. I am not sure how good you can control this HV source. In case of an arc you need very short response times and no capacitors at the output of your source.I have proposed using a microwave for heating elsewhere, but I have no idea how effective that is with nickel powder. Besides that, it is not easy to control the microwave output other than by on-off. On the other hand it might enhance LENR.Maybe it is easier to use an internal molybdenium heating wire?
