Re: [Vo]:Rossi, Lucifer, and Phos (brazing alloy)

(for those who are not accustomed to weekend postings on vortex, the following account may be partly factual, partly wild guesswork, and partly attempted cynical humor). The secret sauce of Andrea Rossi, which is the identity of the ingredient(s) besides nickel which makes his reaction more robust than the others in the progression ... going back to Piantelli and Thermacore, circa 1991, has been a subject of intrigue since his original demonstration. IOW in the early 1990's substantial thermal gain was seen or claimed with Ni-H reactors - in the tens of watts level at low COP, but twenty years later - something which Andrea Rossi added to the nickel, perhaps inadvertently, allowed a more robust gain, going into the kilowatt level. More recently, many including the geniuses at NASA have suspected that SPP was the key to understanding... but SPP (surface plasmon polaritons) requires photon emission. Things did not add up. BTW - up until the time of his 2011 demo, Rossi was paying his bills by working as a metal fabricator in New Hampshire (basically copper pipe fabrication, aka: plumber). This is no secret and he admits it on his blog. In retrospect, what was once a secret is that Rossi's breakthrough was probably always there, in plain view, as they say. Hidden in plain view - it is almost laughable in the continuing Rossi saga. The next devilish dot to connect: P or phosphorous or Phos. Every good plumber uses phosphorus self-fluxing alloy, called Phos, since the element P is an extremely reactive nonmetallic (metalloid) element, a pentavalent pnictogen, a compound of which was once called lucifer's powder but which is seldom mentioned as a reactant in LENR. Phosphorus is the element which allows cigarettes to be lit with matches, and allows SPP to be lit in a reactor. Phosphorescence is the general term for a light-emitting material. That lack of prior mention in the LENR field is why P could have remained Rossi's secret for so long, not to mention that Rossi himself was probably unaware of this detail until sometime near the end of 2012. A strange design feature of E-Cat, which has been noted from the early days of Rossi is his crude (appearance) copper reactors which were brazed in a way which leaves a lot of residue near the joint. This residue turns black, and gives the appearance of crude craftsmanship - but in fact, it is nearly impossible to braze good joints that do not look this way since you risk a leak when you go for pretty. Phosphorus-containing brazing alloys are used for this in many applications as a substitute for welding, since they are self-fluxing, when joining copper to copper, making strong joints at minimal cost. Self-fluxing phosphorus alloys when in contact with nickel produce nickel phosphides. Paper of interest: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ja403440e Anyway, the first form of elemental phosphorus to be produced by alchemists and magicians in the Middle Ages was white phosphorus, aka magician's dust, which can explode violently, and emits a faint glow upon exposure to air, and was called lucifer's powder, referring to the light-bearer of Gnostic tradition. Finally there is the dot called Chemiluminescence of which nickel phosphide is a prime candidate, which will in fact provide the photons which are required for SPP. If the above connect-the-dots scenario is correct, then now we know the identity of Rossi's secret sauce = Phos. And the curious thing is that Rossi may not have realized the secret himself until later. This can explain why he may have had so much trouble in replicating the device for observers in early 2012 - since if he tried to make his reactor look pretty for the guests, by eliminating the flux from the brazed joints; but in so doing, Rossi probably also eliminated the phosphorus which bleeds into the inner wall; and it took him some time to figure out
Re: [Vo]:Rossi will become a destroyer of nations.
I suppose that will be so. Disruptive technology will often be seen as the destroyer of the status quo technology. When a nation banks on the status quo and such a disruption occurs, that nation gets destroyed. There are several examples in history, such as those dealing with the business end of gun powder explosives which today you can simply buy over the internet as ammunition. The indigenous populations of the Americas and Australia didn't quite appreciate the subtle points of the civilization argument when they were being hunted down. Gazprom isn't the only entity threatened. Exxon, Standard Oil,Mobile, Shell, Gulf, etc. But these guys have money and they know what business they are in: Energy Production. So it will only be a matter of time before they negotiate a deal with IH Rossi for the production of energy, which they PURCHASE. In my view, ALL of these guys will need Stirling Cycle Engine technology, such as CYPW Cyclone Power which has been starved for RD funds until this date. That's one of the reasons why I decided to buy CYPW stock, which is looking increasingly ugly of late.

But it will be in a steep decline, with producers desperate to sell of their inventory. It took a long while for automobiles and airplanes to wipe out passenger train service. That happened from around 1920 to 1965. But the industry was in decline the whole time, with intermittent crises. In the 1930s the government had to take over the railroad pension system. In the end the Pennsylvania Railroad, went bankrupt. In 1900 that had been largest, most politically powerful corporation on earth. That power availed them nothing once the technology became obsolete. Ocean liner service declined more rapidly from 1945 to 1960. Like the passenger railroads, this was not an industry you would want to invest in, or work for. It was a fiscal disaster. All conventional energy sources such as oil, coal, wind and nuclear power will lose value the moment people realize cold fusion is real. Within a few years the stocks of the companies will be worth nothing. Wind and solar will be gone. The others will lose money for a generation as they gradually wither away. This has been the pattern with obsolete technology in the past. There is no reason to think it will not repeat in this case. - Jed

Hi Robin Yes, of course that would work - but most of the participants in this H-Cat thing already have the multi-plate HHO cells, which cannot be easily modified to do what you suggest. My aim was to come with a simple fix that might allow them to see Ni-H gain with what they already have in operation. BTW this guy on YT has an elaborate membrane system for separation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU6576HSrbc ...yet since complete separation is not required, a single membrane over the bubbler can do the job cheaply and quickly. If the HHO, which is normally a 2:1 ratio is partially separated into two streams, one of which is say 3:1 and the other is 1:1, then the extra hydrogen in the first stream is not only enriched but also thermally activated by the flame - which is the substitute for Rossi's resistance heat. This could allow the Ni-H reaction to proceed on the unoxidized fraction of hydrogen. Since the gain there is at least 6:1 according to Andrea Rossi, then the net efficiency which is seen now could jump from 77% well into the range of overunity... ... with the proviso according to Andrea Rossi ... which does not inspire universal confidence levels (but that may change in a couple of weeks). :-) attachment: winmail.dat
RE: [Vo]:Rossi will become a destroyer of nations.
From: Axil Axil ... There is a fair chance that Russia will become a failed state ... Maybe... maybe not. Paraphrasing an old saying: It's not wise to divide a Russian bare before it has been killed. ...and its all Rossi's fault. Rossi will become a destroyer of nations. IMHO It would not be anymore Rossi's fault - not anymore than if he was in the business of manufacturing assault rifles and bullets, and some deranged lunatic decided to express his feelings by culling a populated shopping mall of half its paying customers with the gun and bullets Rossi is hypothetically responsible for having manufactured. After all the hand-wringing and recriminations have been delivered, after the last WHY DID THIS HAPPEN...AGAIN!!! is delivered by enraged and bereaved relatives, after perhaps some time later when a tiny iota of legislative sanity is finally restored within the United States and decent gun control laws are passed, in the end it will still remain, it will always remain the fault of the individual responsible for shooting the weapon, not the manufacturer of the weapon used or the bullets used. Likewise, if Putin gets his way and invests the bulk of his country's pension fund in Gazprom, and should Rossi's eCats (or some illegitimate progeny, like BLP) come to fruition, the blame will go squarely on the shoulders of Putin, not Rossi. If another revolution roils Russia back into the 17th century, the likes of which haven't been experienced since Dr. Zhivago; as disenfranchised peasants drag Putin out into the people's public square some fine below zero February winter day for an appointed meeting with a firing squad consisting of volunteers formally employed by KGB, the last words Putin is likely to hear are, You little дерьмо,why didn't you invest in eCAT? Axil, perhaps I have misunderstood the initial intent of your speculation. Perhaps you were just trying to be glib or sarcastic. (Sarcasm - I can understand and appreciate.) The point is I don't know if you really DO believe and stand by what you have stated here. With nothing to go on, all I can say is that such speculation astonishes me to no end. It strikes me as misplaced logic on a grand scale. Expressed conclusions such as these wouldn't bother me so much - except for the fact that I have found myself wondering if it is the norm rather than an aberration, particularly within my country, the United States. (Please understand, I realize you are not a United States citizen, or please correct me if I am mistaken on that matter.) What concerns me is that if such misplaced logic is more the norm, perhaps it might help explain why better gun control in the United States never seems to get passed. The fickle finger of blame never stops wagging. The finger never get pinned down. I hope you will set me straight and inform me of the fact that I had simply not perceived the sarcasm in your statement. /IMHO Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson svjart.orionworks.com

RE: [Vo]:Low cost minimal Rossi-effect experiment
Since the only byproduct of the H-Cat operation is water, it is possible to have a completely closed-cycle with no exhaust. From: Eric Walker I wrote: In light of these points about tetra-carbonyl nickel and dioxin, the hobbyist attempting to carry out an experiment involving a reaction between H and nickel adsorbed onto the surface of a catalytic converter should be careful about dealing with the offgas, especially if copper turns out to be a significant byproduct of the reaction. On second thought, these byproducts are probably not too much of a concern, as they probably require a hydrocarbon to form (e.g., gasoline). Eric
RE: [Vo]:Low cost minimal Rossi-effect experiment
-Original Message- From: Robert McKay A gallium aluminum reaction might also be a good way to go; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JasZ8V6LpbQ This would make hydrogen, but also make it difficult to judge the efficiency. Plus, as mentioned in another post, when a fraction of the HHO is combusted, that heat (and light) can supply the threshold energy input which is needed in the Rossi reaction. At least with the HHO cell for supplying hydrogen - the input power can be read with a meter - so there is no doubt how much is going in. These cells are fairly efficient 70-75% so to reach a net level of overunity, the gainful Ni-H reaction, which happens for that fraction of hydrogen which is not burned initially, probably needs to be COP~2, but according to AR: no problemo... oops make that: nessun problema.
Re: [Vo]:Increasing probability of Rossi being real upwards, to 35%
The E-Cat has no threshold for irrelevance. In terms of probability, the E-Cat is like a civilization killing asteroid impact on the earth. Even if there is only a 1 in ten million chance that the E-Cat is a viable paradigm changing energy device, its mass adoption will have catastrophic extinction consequence for the status quo. Sooner or later, if the E-Cat is supported by physical law, it will be built.

[Vo]:The Controversial Physics of Curling
The curling controversy continues. :-) COLD HARD SCIENCE. The Controversial Physics of Curling https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CUojMQgDpM BTW I have done my own tests with three metal cylinders each with different diameter-to-height ratios on two different surfaces (synthetic ice and melamine). I can get them to curl in the same direction as a curling stone on ice as long as they only complete one-quarter of revolution. If they complete more revolutions they would curl just like the over turned glass shown in the above video. Harry

IMHO It would not be anymore Rossi's fault - not anymore than if he was in the business of manufacturing assault rifles and bullets, and some deranged lunatic decided to express his feelings by culling a populated shopping mall of half its paying customers with the gun and bullets Rossi is hypothetically responsible for having manufactured. After all the hand-wringing and recriminations have been delivered, after the last WHY DID THIS HAPPEN...AGAIN!!! is delivered by enraged and bereaved relatives, after perhaps some time later when a tiny iota of legislative sanity is finally restored within the United States and decent gun control laws are passed, in the end it will still remain, it will always remain the fault of the individual responsible for shooting the weapon, not the manufacturer of the weapon used or the bullets used. Likewise, if Putin gets his way and invests the bulk of his country's pension fund in Gazprom, and should Rossi's eCats (or some illegitimate progeny, like BLP) come to fruition, the blame will go squarely on the shoulders of Putin, not Rossi. If another revolution roils Russia back into the 17th century, the likes of which haven't been experienced since Dr. Zhivago; as disenfranchised peasants drag Putin out into the people's public square some fine below zero February winter day for an appointed meeting with a firing squad consisting of volunteers formally employed by KGB, the last words Putin is likely to hear are, You little дерьмо,why didn't you invest in eCAT?

The point is I don't know if you really DO believe and stand by what you have stated here. With nothing to go on, all I can say is that such speculation astonishes me to no end. It strikes me as misplaced logic on a grand scale. Expressed conclusions such as these wouldn't bother me so much - except for the fact that I have found myself wondering if it is the norm rather than an aberration, particularly within my country, the United States. (Please understand, I realize you are not a United States citizen, or please correct me if I am mistaken on that matter.) What concerns me is that if such misplaced logic is more the norm, perhaps it might help explain why better gun control in the United States never seems to get passed.

You can also just add Aluminium (in any metallic form), to an alkaline solution. Pure Hydrogen evolves rapidly and readily.

Put a gun to my head with 10,000,000 chambers and a bullet in only one of them selected at random and offer me $100 every time I pull the trigger, I would pull that trigger a number of times. Why? Well obviously I could use the money, and more-so the risk of dying from getting in a car to go to any work place and working in that place and coming home would be about that anyway. And this would be a lot faster. The rates are apparently about 1.5 per 100 million vehicle miles, considering that you must drive to and from work multiple miles and include the risk of work (highly variable, but it is a 100% time/life suck either way) that makes this game of long odds Russian Roulette quite attractive by comparison.
