Re: [Vo]:Calculating the Energy of an atom using the equation for an isolated conducting sphere.
Hi Lane. It's good to see you are still kicking. I have not done much since the publication of my book. Occasionally I update it, but I consider my work to be done. For sure, there is no money in it. Even with the help of your web page, that attracted thousands of viewers, I still did not sell many books. In economic terms a continuing effort in this area, for me, is fully diminished. I believe we are all there. My latest effort is in writing apps. They can sell them for 99 cents. It has not been easy. I first downloaded the programming module, Ellipse. It was obsolete. Now I upgraded to Android Studio. My computer would not run Android Studio and I had to load a software hardware accelerator. This required getting into the computer's BIOS and manually changing it. Finally, gasp, Android Studio and the cell phone emulator were running on my computer. The next steps proved equally confounding. The Java operating system confuses me. If you want to make something simple like draw circle of radius r; you have to make a code that looks like this: @ overide mycircile extends package In short, I could not get the Java to draw even a simple circle. So then I tried to download the C++ Andriod compiler NDK. Nothing happened to the Android Studio operator's page after the download. C++ is sure not compiling. Darn, I know how to draw a circle in C++. Its involves only one line of code. The Android code comes bundled in several packages. One of them is XML. Yes, you got to do them all to draw a simple circle. It requires about 6 programs and 40 lines of code. XML was a way to encapsulate data. For example, if you had web page that was static and you wanted to add something dynamic like today's temperate; you would have the server send the temperature to the web page bundled in an XML data file. A Java Script in the HTML page would pull in the XML data and display it within the static web page. Android XML does not carry data. It displays a static view similar to HTML. There is not way to send data to the android XML. I am so confounded that I am ready to give up. The next time I see those little Androids riding on the buss, I will know that they are crazy mad. Good work Lane and commend you for your perseverance. For now, I gave up.

RE: [Vo]:Calculating the Energy of an atom using the equation for an isolated conducting sphere.
Nice work Jeff, You have made Mills more accessible, but I’m not sure he would agree with everything that you have done here, due to the implications. This is also very similar to what Michaud is showing – with the huge emphasis on 511 keV value, which permeates the entire field of LENR… kinda’ like the smile of the Cheshire cat… and it is all tied into Hotson/Dirac and the epo field. And although you state: the “Transition State Orbitsphere” (TSO) is created at orbit state n= alpha = 1/137.036 (i.e. FSC or fine structure constant … where matter and energy are indistinguishable by any physical property” according to [Mills] … yet, for some strange reason you stop there, instead of actually identifying and analyzing that precise mass-energy state as being relevant in itself – such as the end product of “shrinkage”. To cut to the chase, when you multiply this fundamental value of electron or positron mass (511 keV) by alpha (along with a relativistic correction) the result is essentially the same as the mass-energy signature of the DDL – which is equivalent to dark matter (and is unlike Mills’ actual prediction). The actual value as it is showing in dozens of cosmological papers, appears to be 3.56 keV as opposed to 3.73 keV, which difference is the relativistic correction. Are you unaware of the cosmology papers behind this? They can only serve to boost your case. If this 3.56 keV value is indeed the end of the road for ground state hydrogen redundancy, then it should be the most important value in all of physics, since it would explain dark matter as an isomer of hydrogen – which is most of the mass of the visible Universe, so why not most of the mass of the invisible? … yet everyone in LENR appears to be avoiding cosmology like the plague. I hope that is not because it goes back to Dirac and not to Mills, but of course – the similarity could all be a “coincidence”. Yet, since this particular value is the hottest topic in cosmology these days, it is a mystery why observers here on vortex avoid connecting real observation in another field with theory - to explain LENR as the energetic creation of dark matter, and not a nuclear reaction. In the eyes of the mainstream, if the 3.56 keV x-ray is verified in experiment, the field could change almost overnight from “pathological” to “cutting edge”… From: Jeff Driscoll take a look at Appendix 2 starting on page 62 of this, it is very similar to what you did: http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20150105175045/blacklightpower/images/3/33/BLP-e-long-1-5-2015.pdf this comes from the summary of pair production on this page http://blacklightpower.wikia.com/wiki/Pair_Production the website is a wikia for Blacklight Power's theory, On Sun, Jan 11, 2015 at 11:02 PM, Lane Davis seattle.tr...@gmail.com wrote: I just released a new paper on modeling the Atom and photon as a capacitor and producing the correct energy levels.

As far as I can tell, based on GUTCP, n = 1/137 (but *not* n = 1/137.035999) would be the theoretical *stable* atom end product of hydrogen shrinkage. A hydrogen atom at orbit state n = 1/137 has an angular momentum that is exactly equal to hbar (the reduced Planck constant which has units of angular momentum). All electron stable circular orbits for a hydrogen atom have hbar of angular momentum and is a requirement of GUTCP. I wouldn't focus too much on the TSO being the end point of shrinkage - it's more the birth of the electron in pair production. All the GUTCP rules or postulates produce nice clean equations that show the TSO being the birth. There is no clean neat calculation to get from say, n = 1 (or for that matter n = 1/4) to n = 1/137.035999. But there are nice neat calculations to get from n = 1 to n = 1/137 based on the same postulates and rules (at the same time there is data and experiment to back up the rules, such as conservation of angular momentum and conservation of energy). The best example of this is to look at the correspondence principle write up that I put in Section 4, page 85 of http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20150105175045/blacklightpower/images/3/33/BLP-e-long-1-5-2015.pdf (if the link changes, which it does if I update the pdf, then click on summary here) http://blacklightpower.wikia.com/wiki/Pair_Production Every fractional orbit state drop creates a photon that perfectly follows classical rules. Dropping to n = 1/137.035999 would release a photon that didn't fit into the correspondence principle. So it's easier to think of n = 1/137.035999 as the birth of the electron - at least in terms of nice neat calculations. If an electron does shrink to n = 1/137.035999 then it needs some messy process (with no precise formula that has, for example, part per thousand of accuracy) of releasing energy to get there .. but I assume it could happen when atoms bounce around at high velocities so that it could give up this tiny remainder of energy (the portion in the decimal of 1/137.035999). To cut to the chase, when you multiply this fundamental value of electron or positron mass (511 keV) by alpha (along with a relativistic correction) the result is essentially the same as the mass-energy signature of the DDL – which is equivalent to dark matter (and is unlike Mills’ actual prediction).

Are you unaware of the cosmology papers behind this? They can only serve to boost your case. As far as I know, the 3.5 keV bump that the comologists measure is not a sharp line, and if it is real and based on hydrino shrinkage, then it is a continuum photon with a range of frequencies with a cut off of a photon having 3.5 keV. I don't focus on it because there are too many inaccuracies of measuring the cutoff frequency - it's too imprecise. If this 3.56 keV value is indeed the end of the road for ground state hydrogen redundancy, then it should be the most important value in all of physics, since it would explain dark matter as an isomer of hydrogen – which is most of the mass of the visible Universe, so why not most of the mass of the invisible? … yet everyone in LENR appears to be avoiding cosmology like the plague.

Re: [Vo]:Report on Mizuno's Adiabatic Calorimetry revised
Bob Cook frobertc...@hotmail.com wrote: I am not sure how Mizuno measured the 10.8 Watts of power used by the pump. It says in the report: Mizuno used the WattChecker watt meter to measure the electric power consumed by the pump, which is 10.8 W. I think the pump specifications indicate the pump uses about 22 watts. No, as I told you, the specifications are written on the side of the pump, and they are: Iwaki Co., Magnet Pump MD-6K-N Maximum capacity: 8/9 L/min Maximum head: 1.0/1.4 100V 12W/60Hz, 12W/50Hz This is also in the report. I plan to talk with the pump vendor technical staff to better understand the performance of this type of pump and the wattage vs voltage/amperage specs and the efficiency. Please do not waste their time. The heat from the pump cannot possibly affect the calorimetry, for the reasons I stated here and in the report. I do not have the same report that you have identifying the pump specifications on page 24. My version of your report, dated November 14, 2014, does not include the specification you state exists . . .

Web browsers sometimes fail to see they are not accessing the latest version of a page. As a general rule for anything on the web, when in doubt, press Reload. I think by baseline you mean a condition at which the energy introduced into the circulating system by the pump creates a temperature of the reactor and water bath and all the reactor internals that is the same and in equilibrium with a non-changing differential temperature between the ambient atmosphere and the water bath. Exactly. This is shown in Fig. 19. Heat is measured based on the difference shown with the purple arrow in Fig. 7. The bottom of that arrow points to the temperature of the water which already includes heat from the pump. In any case a good description of baseline conditions is warranted. What is the matter with the description on p. 24? It does not seem complicated to me. - Jed

You are wrong. This is not what I say. This is what Fig. 19 proves. If your graphs show something else, your experiment is different. Perhaps you are using a different kind of pump, or more pressure in the tubes, or perhaps you have confused the effects of falling ambient temperature with rising water temperature, as you did before. In the second paper you wrote: GSVIT-1) We do not agree at all. The pump was not stopped during the test and, as Rothwell says, we are speaking about a differential temperature increase equal to +2.5°C. . . . No one said the pump is stopped during the test. It runs all the time. If it were stopped, the test would fail because the heat from the reactor would no longer be collected. The pump power turns out to be about 4 W. Suppose, for the sake of argument, that is true. And suppose that raises the temperature by about 6°C. (Obviously that cannot be true because nowhere do we see a 6°C elevation above ambient, but let us pretend it is true.) In that case, all of the excess heat calculations must begin at a baseline 6°C above ambient, because the pump is always left on. Therefore this has absolutely no impact on the excess heat measurement. - Jed

RE: [Vo]:Calculating the Energy of an atom using the equation for an isolated conducting sphere.
From: Jeff Driscoll Ø I wouldn't focus too much on the TSO being the end point of shrinkage - it's more the birth of the electron in pair production. All the GUTCP rules or postulates produce nice clean equations that show the TSO being the birth… Well – if you want to believe that Mills got everything right – then that might be true, but I do not buy it due to the litany of failures, glossed over as if they never happened. Another valid perspective is that “America’s genius” missed quite a very of the more important details which explain anomalous heat from hydrogen, and that he did not get everything right. If he had, BLP would not have suffered through the dozens of disappointments over the last 24 years in getting a product to market. He is further away now than ever. An immediate commercial product is something that Parkhamov’s experiment could stimulate this year, assuming it will be quickly replicated… and why not assume that, since it took him only weeks to pull it off. But the main thing that Mills did foresee, and perhaps he deserves the “big prize” for it (once it is proved beyond doubt) - is simply that the electron of a hydrogen atom can become stable in a redundant ground state. Once that is accepted – it implies that ONLY the lowest of these redundant states is going to be the stable end-point, and since this ultimate stable state corresponds to the recent cosmological findings of dark matter – DDL, it all adds up to the possibility that Mills is partly right and partly wrong.

Re: [Vo]:Report on Mizuno's Adiabatic Calorimetry revised
Jed is correct, when the pump is turned on and everything reaches steady state, (using his example) the pump is putting in 4 watts of power to the tubing, the reservoir and the LENR chamber and all these tubes and the LENR chamber emit 4 watts of thermal power to the ambient at steady state. Then when the LENR experiment is turned on, any delta T can be attributed to the LENR device, not the pump (assuming the pump doesn't change speed).

In the second paper you wrote: GSVIT-1) We do not agree at all. The pump was not stopped during the test and, as Rothwell says, we are speaking about a differential temperature increase equal to +2.5°C. . . . No one said the pump is stopped during the test. It runs all the time. If it were stopped, the test would fail because the heat from the reactor would no longer be collected. The pump power turns out to be about 4 W. Suppose, for the sake of argument, that is true. And suppose that raises the temperature by about 6°C. (Obviously that cannot be true because nowhere do we see a 6°C elevation above ambient, but let us pretend it is true.) In that case, all of the excess heat calculations must begin at a baseline 6°C above ambient, because the pump is always left on. Therefore this has absolutely no impact on the excess heat measurement. - Jed -- Jeff Driscoll 617-290-1998

Re: [Vo]:Report on Mizuno's Adiabatic Calorimetry revised
Dear Giancarlo, Thanks for publishing your report in English so that many of us that do not speak Italian can understand it. There is no disagreement between the method that I used to calculate the kinetic transport power and what you would have calculated with the same numbers since we used the same basic principles. I relied upon the information from Jed about the mass flow rate of the pump where he stated that Mizuno had told him that it was 8 liters per second. If you match that rate with your 5 mm pipe as you have stated as a plan for replication of Mizuno's experiment then you will obtain my results. I do not have a pump and 16 meters of 10 mm inside diameter tubing before me to determine exactly what flow rate is obtained. It is going to be necessary for you to either obtain a matching pipe or for us to verify exactly what flow rate is being measured by Mizuno before a final answer can be established. Jed apparently believes that the friction within the 16 meter tubing is not sufficient to reduce the unloaded pump fluid flow rate to a value that is anywhere close to the 2.31 liters per minute that you are proposing. In your report, you state that you are matching the performance seen by Mizuno as far as fluid flow rate is concerned but I strongly doubt that this is occurring. If you make additional calculations you will see that the pressure required at the pump output is (10 mm/5 mm)^4 or 16 times as large when achieving the same flow rate for a 5 mm tube as compared to a 10 mm tube. This is a dramatic difference and you find that you quickly run out of head room when using the 5 mm tube for your test. Just this reason alone should be sufficient for you to realize that your replication attempt is failed. And, as further supporting evidence, the pumping power needed to reach the 8 liters per minute flow rate when using a 10 mm tube is only .192 watts which is well within the operational range of the MD-6. We can approach the power required to match Mizuno's flow rate from another direction if you wish. The mathematics implies that the power required to drive a certain ratio of flow rates varies as that ratio to the third power. In your case that means (8/2.31)^3 or 41.53 times less than to reach 8 liters per minute. To take your example: 41.53 * .074 watts = 3.07 watts. (your numbers). So again, you would need to have 3.07 watts of pumping power delivered to the water stream in order to reach 8 liters per minute of mass flow rate just as I have shown. Giancarlo, you are the one that must defend your procedure to show that it truly replicates the experiment conducted by Mizuno. I am merely demonstrating why you have failed to do so. Unless you can prove that you are not damaging the operation of the pump in some manner by your technique then you can not expect me or anyone else to take seriously your claim that you have proven that there is no additional power being generated by Mizuno's device. Why are we expected to accept the notion that a pump that is being driven into overload by high pressure operation per your demonstration is not adding significant additional power into the water stream? The forces acting upon the pump are very much increased by your choice of pipe diameter and it does not take much imagination to expect the internal bearings to overload in a manner that generates significant heating as a consequence. I can not say with certainly that your technique is completely without merit, but you are also left with many issue to resolve before you can claim a good reproduction of the cooling system used by Mizuno. And, since you see powers that fail to match those derived from the experiment, it suggests that you are making some major error. If we continue to discuss this subject in additional dept, I believe that we will eventually come to a mutual understanding with respect to your effort. I remain neutral in my acceptance of whether or not excess power is being generated by the Mizuno experiment and I hope that you remain flexible. I await your response to this posting and perhaps we should begin considering additional tests that you can perform to help verify the facts. I like the horizontal flow demonstration that you used to measure the mass flow rate for the 5 mm tubing. Can you do the same with 10 mm as a beginning step?

Jeff, I could agree entirely with you. I've have some problems with the internal and external calorimeter time constants that are too short. But let's go on and assume that what you say is completely right. Now can you tell me where in the Mizuno's results (excel files and figures) you see this behaviour?

Then when the LENR experiment is turned on, any delta T can be attributed to the LENR device, not the pump (assuming the pump doesn't change speed).

Also, I have performs extensive calculations within a spreadsheet that is based upon the lift head versus fluid flow rate of this model pump. It is capable of delivering less than 1 watt of fluid power into the water coolant under the best of conditions. My actual calculation is .75 watts at 6 liters per minute which I rounded off for convenience to 1 watt. I included both potential as well as kinetic energy related powers. Any additional power imparted to the water must come from pump friction and thermal leakage through the construction materials. Without further careful measurements we or Gigi can not assume that the pump used by Mizuno is operating at its specification limit of 3 watts. Of course the measurement of 4.5 watts by Gigi is certainly not representative of a pump that is in good condition. The pump manual has several warnings about how easy it is to damage it and that strongly suggests that Gigi and his team has done just that in order to obtain their non representative performance. No one but Mizuno knows the status of his pump during those tests so the only conclusion that can conservatively be drawn is that the skeptical report by Gigi and team should not be considered valid. The pump manual states that the water reservoir must be at least 1 foot above the pump input port in order to prevent possible air intake along with the coolant water. Operation under conditions that do not meet this requirement can damage the pump according to the manual. Unfortunately, in both of the cases being discussed

Re: [Vo]:Report on Mizuno's Adiabatic Calorimetry revised
I agree completely with Jed as long as the ambient is kept at a constant temperature. Any constant source of power introduced into the system will eventually result in a fixed delta between the device coolant temperature and the ambient. The time constant associated with the transient delta is quite long according to Jed's data but if enough time constants pass, the temperature will settle down at a fixed value and remain constant. Any new power applied as a step will result in a ramp to the temperature curve much as is seen during his testing. I do have a concern about what occurs when the ambient changes. I consider the change in ambient as being the equivalent of an input power application who's value is proportional to the ratio of the rapid change in ambient degrees to the total change above the normal stable ambient. For a simple example assume that 1 watt of power is leaking into the test system as a result of pump power. When settled out we can assume that the coolant resides at a temperature that is 4 degrees greater than ambient due to the long term application of the 1 watt leakage. Now if the ambient rapidly changes by 1 degree I believe that this is exactly the same as a signal appearing that is 1 watt * (1 C/ 4 C) = .25 watts. The pulse nature of the input drive power and the resulting LENR heating is spread over a relatively large duty cycle enhances the effect of the input. In this case for a 10% drive duty cycle our leakage would behave like a 2.5 watt valid signal. I may be mistaken in this model and perhaps Jed can clear up any errors.

Re: [Vo]:Report on Mizuno's Adiabatic Calorimetry revised
It appears as if Jed and Mizuno have the situation under control. I will be relieved when the variations in ambient are taken out of the picture since that will make analysis of the system much simpler. You might be correct that I got the direction of the pseudo input wrong. It is so easy to get mixed up when you think about these types of systems. Allow me to present the logic that I used to derive the behavior observed when an ambient temperature step takes place. First, it is assumed that the ambient is steady and the temperature of the coolant has settled down and no longer is changing value with time. If power is leaking into the system from the outside such as by means of the pump network then the coolant must obtain a temperature above the static ambient. This is required in order for the heat to flow outwards from the test system into the outside world. In this case heat is flowing across the delta in temperature at a rate that is proportional to that delta. Since the coolant is hotter than the ambient, heat is flowing from the coolant to the ambient. If the ambient now undergoes a step upwards the difference between the static coolant and the new ambient is less than before. Since a lower delta is now measured, less heat flows outwards from the coolant to the ambient. Before the step, all of the heat associated with the pump power was flowing through the insulation and to the ambient environment. Now, once that step takes place, the delta become smaller and less heat flows outwards. The difference in heat flowing is directed into the thermal capacity of the coolant and test device. This then should cause the temperature of those components to rise. I believe this behavior would be the same as would be observed by a real signal adding its heat currents into the calorimeter. A check to this thought is established by considering where the ultimate coolant and device system temperature stabilizes. Eventually, that combined temperature rises until the same temperature delta as before the step is reached. If that happened to be 4 degrees before a +1 degree step, the coolant temperature should move in the same direction as the step beginning at the hypothetical 3 degrees of delta slowly upwards to 4 degrees where it stabilizes. Perhaps I am overlooking something in my mental model that someone will point out.

When ambient changes a great deal over a short time, calorimetry becomes too complicated. You need to throw away those results. Or use them for a limited purpose. Mizuno has reduced fluctuations and I hope he soon eliminates the overnight temperature change. I consider the change in ambient as being the equivalent of an input power application who's value is proportional to the ratio of the rapid change in ambient degrees to the total change above the normal stable ambient. Do you mean when ambient temperature falls? This would look like input power . . . but only if you do not record the ambient temperature! As long as you see it is falling, you know this is not actually input power. The hard part is when you have actual power plus a falling ambient. It is difficult to separate them out. It is not worth the effort. Just toss out the data. If ambient temperature rises (and you don't notice) it looks like heat vanishing in a magic endothermic reaction. Now if the ambient rapidly changes by 1 degree I believe that this is exactly the same as a signal appearing that is 1 watt * (1 C/ 4 C) = .25 watts. Well, it is not the same because we have a record of the ambient temperature. As I said, suppose you take a glass of warm water and put it outside in January. The difference between ambient and the water suddenly increases by 20 deg C. That does not mean a heat source appeared out of nowhere. It means the water does not instantly cool off. With this system, if I have derived Newton's cooling coefficient right, 1 W going into the water should produce a 1.5 deg C temperature difference. - Jed
Re: [Vo]:Report on Mizuno's Adiabatic Calorimetry revised
I missed the simulation for some reason. Where can I find that? Sorry if I overlooked it. Do you have data that shows the mass flow rate when a 10 mm tube is attached to the pump output? I assume that a large pipe is on the suction port. You need to attach a full length 10 mm tube to the pump and measure the flow rate and heating as a main step. There are far too many variables associated with operation of the pump with the 5 mm pipe. I have pointed out several problems that need to be addressed. If you do this and also measure the AC power into the pump and then clean up the pump bearings so that the frictional losses are low then that will go a long way toward proving your position. Do you have any method of verifying that the frictional losses are as low as those of the pump used by Mizuno? The fact that you measure 4.5 watts versus a specification of 3 watts maximum suggests that something is wrong with your procedure. How do you explain that difference? Also, the difference between what you measure and what Mizuno and Jed measures may be nothing more than those associated with operation in a different pump pressure range and a damaged pump.

But I think that we can do something more: what will convince you that we are right and Mizuno is wrong? Regards 2015-01-12 23:17 GMT+01:00 David Roberson dlrober...@aol.com: Dear Giancarlo, Thanks for publishing your report in English so that many of us that do not speak Italian can understand it. There is no disagreement between the method that I used to calculate the kinetic transport power and what you would have calculated with the same numbers since we used the same basic principles. I relied upon the information from Jed about the mass flow rate of the pump where he stated that Mizuno had told him that it was 8 liters per second. If you match that rate with your 5 mm pipe as you have stated as a plan for replication of Mizuno's experiment then you will obtain my results. I do not have a pump and 16 meters of 10 mm inside diameter tubing before me to determine exactly what flow rate is obtained. It is going to be necessary for you to either obtain a matching pipe or for us to verify exactly what flow rate is being measured by Mizuno before a final answer can be established. Jed apparently believes that the friction within the 16 meter tubing is not sufficient to reduce the unloaded pump fluid flow rate to a value that is anywhere close to the 2.31 liters per minute that you are proposing. In your report, you state that you are matching the performance seen by Mizuno as far as fluid flow rate is concerned but I strongly doubt that this is occurring. If you make additional calculations you will see that the pressure required at the pump output is (10 mm/5 mm)^4 or 16 times as large when achieving the same flow rate for a 5 mm tube as compared to a 10 mm tube. This is a dramatic difference and you find that you quickly run out of head room when using the 5 mm tube for your test. Just this reason alone should be sufficient for you to realize that your replication attempt is failed. And, as further supporting evidence, the pumping power needed to reach the 8 liters per minute flow rate when using a 10 mm tube is only .192 watts which is well within the operational range of the MD-6. We can approach the power required to match Mizuno's flow rate from another direction if you wish. The mathematics implies that the power required to drive a certain ratio of flow rates varies as that ratio to the third power. In your case that means (8/2.31)^3 or 41.53 times less than to reach 8 liters per minute. To take your example: 41.53 * .074 watts = 3.07 watts. (your numbers). So again, you would need to have 3.07 watts of pumping power delivered to the water stream in order to reach 8 liters per minute of mass flow rate just as I have shown. Giancarlo, you are the one that must defend your procedure to show that it truly replicates the experiment conducted by Mizuno. I am merely demonstrating why you have failed to do so. Unless you can prove that you are not damaging the operation of the pump in some manner by your technique then you can not expect me or anyone else to take seriously your claim that you have proven that there is no additional power being generated by Mizuno's device. Why are we expected to accept the notion that a pump that is being driven into overload by high pressure operation per your demonstration is not adding significant additional power into the water stream? The forces acting upon the pump are very much

When ambient changes a great deal over a short time, calorimetry becomes too complicated. You need to throw away those results. Or use them for a limited purpose. Mizuno has reduced fluctuations and I hope he soon eliminates the overnight temperature change. I consider the change in ambient as being the equivalent of an input power application who's value is proportional to the ratio of the rapid change in ambient degrees to the total change above the normal stable ambient. Do you mean when ambient temperature falls? This would look like input power . . . but only if you do not record the ambient temperature! As long as you see it is falling, you know this is not actually input power. The hard part is when you have actual power plus a falling ambient. It is difficult to separate them out. It is not worth the effort. Just toss out the data. If ambient temperature rises (and you don't notice) it looks like heat vanishing in a magic endothermic reaction. Now if the ambient rapidly changes by 1 degree I believe that this is exactly the same as a signal appearing that is 1 watt * (1 C/ 4 C) = .25 watts. Well, it is not the same because we have a record of the ambient temperature. As I said, suppose you take a glass of warm water and put it outside in January. The difference between ambient and the water suddenly increases by 20 deg C. That does not mean a heat source appeared out of nowhere. It means the water does not instantly cool off. With this system, if I have derived Newton's cooling coefficient right, 1 W going into the water should produce a 1.5 deg C temperature difference. - Jed

Nice pictures! With data fitted theory you still can make predictions when you interpolate, I use it all the time. No need to throw away anything. But it is dishonest of society to ignore Mills, as I pointed out there is nothing written that are pointing towards an error e.g. ed. 2014 page 12 equation 134 is wrong or such, he has worked so hard with this that we should give such detailed critique or else critique is politics more than science. Even Rathke misses this point and that makes his work the work of a vicious politician. Or someone who wants to please one for the sake of getting golden stars.

Re: [Vo]:Report on Mizuno's Adiabatic Calorimetry revised
Bob, You have uncovered a pump specification that proves that the replication work by Gigi and allies is not accurate. They report to have determined that approximately 4.5 watts of thermal power is being absorbed by the circulating water under their test condition. This amount of reported power is clearly more than the pump should add and they need to explain why we should accept their data as accurate. Also, I have performs extensive calculations within a spreadsheet that is based upon the lift head versus fluid flow rate of this model pump. It is capable of delivering less than 1 watt of fluid power into the water coolant under the best of conditions. My actual calculation is .75 watts at 6 liters per minute which I rounded off for convenience to 1 watt. I included both potential as well as kinetic energy related powers. Any additional power imparted to the water must come from pump friction and thermal leakage through the construction materials. Without further careful measurements we or Gigi can not assume that the pump used by Mizuno is operating at its specification limit of 3 watts. Of course the measurement of 4.5 watts by Gigi is certainly not representative of a pump that is in good condition. The pump manual has several warnings about how easy it is to damage it and that strongly suggests that Gigi and his team has done just that in order to obtain their non representative performance. No one but Mizuno knows the status of his pump during those tests so the only conclusion that can conservatively be drawn is that the skeptical report by Gigi and team should not be considered valid. The pump manual states that the water reservoir must be at least 1 foot above the pump input port in order to prevent possible air intake along with the coolant water. Operation under conditions that do not meet this requirement can damage the pump according to the manual. Unfortunately, in both of the cases being discussed this was not done. The setup used by Gigi very clearly shows the pump mounted above the Dewar by several inches. The same appears true for Mizuno's experiment.

For example, when is the excess energy produced with respect to the time the spikes of electrical heat are applied to the electrodes? In this regard it seems that the excess energy production, if any, does not continue indefinitely, since the temperature increase levels off and then decrease without the spikes of electrical input to the electrodes.

They couldnt explain the stability of the atom in a classic way and Bohr postulated the stability of the atom. Mills found the solution to that problem. He proposed that the electron is a shell of current which is flowing in such a way that there are solutions to the Maxwell equations who correspond to the stable quantum levels of the electron in the hydrogen atom. What is more he found that with his model fractional quantum levels where also possible.

I wish he -- and others -- would The Iwaik pump, if running, would have added heat at about 29 watts per the pump specification. In my report, p. 24, I list the pump specifications. Mizuno measured the pump input power with the watt meter. It is 10.8 W, not 29 W. However, only a tiny fraction of this power is delivered to the water. Mizuno measured how much is delivered. It was only ~0.4 W. If you do not think so, explain why Fig. 19 is wrong. You can confirm that nearly all the electric power converts to heat at the pump motor. Touch a pump and you will feel the heat radiating. Many pumps have fans that blow the hot air out of the motor. With a good pump, the water is at the other end away from the motor, and very little heat transfers to it. This was more than enough to raise the temperature without any reactor heat source given the recorded decrease of 1.7 watts when nothing was running or reacting. Suppose this is true. Suppose it was 1.7 W and suppose that raises the temperature by 4 deg C. Pick any temperature rise you like: suppose it raises the temperature by 10 deg C, or 20 deg C. Here is the point, which I have made again and again: THE TEMPERATURE WAS ALREADY that much higher when the test began. The pump runs all the time.

This ability to minimize dispersion of reflected infrared light is just what the Ni/H reactor needs to form Surface Plasmon Polaritons(SPP) at high efficiency. * *As the temperature of nickel rises above its Curie temperature, Nickel's global magnetic coherence breaks down and it becomes para-magnetic. What then forms on the surface of nickel are localized magnetic vortexes on the micro and nano-scale. This spin vortex nature of the nickel surface also aids in the production efficiency of SPPs.* *Since SPP's are spinning vortexes of an entangled light/matter waveform, these vortexes of spin on the surface of nickel aids in SPP formation. * *But nickel alone provides just a start to the strength of a good Ni/H LENR reaction.

In the Hot Cat, for example, Lithium and Hydrogen produce nano-particles that carry the bulk of the strength of the LENR reaction. As in spark induced LENR and Hot-Cat meltdown, nano-particles that condense out of cooling plasma will carry the main portion of the SPP formation and associated power production.* *In closing, I predict that someone in the future will build an LENR metal vapor reactor that has a sustained operating temperature of 3000C ( a Hot-cat running in sustained meltdown mode).

A spark had penetrated a sheet of aluminum where an aluminum plasma was condensing into aluminum nanoparticles resulting in the formation of two EV types, a bright one and a dark one. Ken analyzed the magnetic field coming off the dark EV and he found that this type of EV acts as a magnetic monipole. In subsequent years, Nanoplasmonics pushed the analsys of these coherent balls of EMF further and determined that their structure was actually solitons or frozen and persistent EMF waveforms. The bright soliton is formed when a infrared photon and an electron from a dipole match energies and become entangled. The Surface Plasmon Polariton thus formed gets a spin of 1 from the photon and a greatly reduced mass of one millionth of that of the electron. These almost massless complex particles form a Bose Einstein Condensate at the drop of a hat. The dark soliton is more interesting and hard to understand. It is a composite particle of a infrared photon and the :Hole” (lack of charge) in the dipole. It has a positive charge and a spin of 2. I speculate that it is this type of soliton that has been seen by Frederic Henry-Couannier when he says: “If it succeeds to actually reach the metal it will recover neutrality (catch free electrons around) and disappear (evaporate) in a very short time.
