I'm using the following grit size conversion chart for the sandpaper for use on the nickel mesh in my Mizuno replication experiment.

Mizuno lists this in the supplemental:
Silicon Carbide Wet-Dry Abrasive:…

My criticism referred to the overall progress (or lack thereof) in the conversation. I said "There's a general tendency to confuse temperature with power". Power refers to both the electric input to the heater, and the heat and other forms of power…

In my home lab I have been - intermittently - playing with a plasma system. This has a hefty 15kV Neon transformer delivering AC power (at the moment) driven by an auto-transformer that can push this up to 20+kV if required. The vacuum equipment is not…

In that case, you are right!

(Quote from JedRothwell)


JedRothwell what you say is true, but Desireless didn't wait for it to stabilize. The plot he has shared covers a period of 20 minutes. If his reactor is anywhere near the mass of Mizuno's then it takes hours for it to…

Not so much Desireless, as Clueless perhaps?

After fully cooling, the cell pressure had increased from 305 Pa to 343 Pa. So there is still some leakage after cleaning the sampling valve. I've ordered a diaphragm-sealed valve that is better suited to retaining Hydrogen, and that will be installed…

Unfortunately it appears Desireless is another replicator that has discovered the high thermal conductivity of Hydrogen/Deuterium and confused it as excess heat. Desireless is measuring external reactor temperature with and without Deuterium for a…

MR3 Cal1 is now streaming if anyone is bored enough to watch. A longer heater cartridge is installed so the temperature profile is a bit different from MR2
