It seems like a sensible test if nuclear reactions/transformation are
suppose to be occurring.

No instruments are perfect. You never get exactly zero. There is always a
bias, positive or negative. A small bias is meaningless.

To quote Mizuno's book, "Nuclear Transmutation":

it is not necessarily the case that heat production means a reaction, and
no heat means no reaction.  There may be endothermic reactions that absorb
heat instead of producing it.  This is an important clue to understanding
the reaction mechanism.  In many experiments until now [1997], samples that
did not produce heat were put aside and not analyzed.  I believe important
data may well have been overlooked when these samples were ignored. (p. 94.)

Cooling is not against the second law. 

There exist "endothermic"
chemical reactions how makes cooling. 

There also are endothermic
nuclear reactions. 

This includes 7Li+n→ 4He+3T +n -2.466 MeV, observe
the negative sign (-). 

And fission of light elements and fusion of
heavy elements.

Cooling only goes against the second law if the particle(s) never give
the entropy back to their surroundings, which is not known

 Is this then

Re: [Vo]:excess power as either anomolous heating or cooling

2013-01-27 Thread Jouni Valkonen
I would say with 99.98 % confidence that anomalous cooling hints to the 
calibration error of instruments. There should not be any doubts for that.

Cooling and going against the second law of thermodynamics, however is not that 
particularly surprising. Entropy decreased at large scale when the universe was 
just three seconds old. The primordial nucleosynthesis compressed huge amount 
of energy into protons and alpha particles. This caused entropy to decrease in 
isolated system. Also in supernovae explosions, entropy decreases when energy 
is trapped into atoms heavier than Ni-62. 

Hydrino formation goes also against the second law of thermodynamics and it 
causes thus the cooling of isolated system, because hydrinos are stable. 
However as I know that Mills' theory is wrong at fundamental level, this does 
not do as an explanation. However, hydrinos are interesting thought 
experiments, because it is trivial to envision logical conditions where the 
classical second law of thermodynamics will fail in isolated system.

Is this then yet another failure for cold fusion, or is it still too early to 
tell?

It is mentioned in a few places in the discussion. In one instance, if

 "negative power".

[Vo]:excess power as either anomolous heating or cooling

2013-01-27 Thread Harry Veeder
The MFMP results are not looking very good at the moment as excess
heat appears to be marginal or non-existent. However, the data now
suggest the possibility of some slight anomalous cooling effect. I
don't know if this cooling is real or the result some minor
calibration error, but it raises the question of how we estimate
excess power.

Although we tend to associate excess power with anomalous heating, it
seems to me that a system can exhibit excess power (or over unity)
through either persistent anomalous cooling  or persistent anomalous
heating . But what if the system oscillates between periods of
anomalous cooling and anomalous heating? Simply taking a time average
would make the excess power appear to be much less or even
non-existent.
