I don't believe Inductive Heating only occurs in AC, as in "Alternating". The current does not have to be alternating as in "reversing" directions periodically. All that is require is a time varying current, which could be Direct current, as long as it is varyinng. The important thing is the

Mark, To be a bit contrarian: this looks like bad science to me. I think it is part assumption error, and part a relic of cavity super-radiant emission (Dicke-Preparata) by nanotubes, which emission is partially focused on a good blackbody emitter. If fact most of the effect could be measu

The article makes it appear as if they stumbled on the effect, but the abstract (click link at end of article)makes it clear they were looking for the effect because some new models of joule heating predicted it. harry On Tue, Apr 10, 2012 at 11:21 PM, Jojo Jaro wrote: > Correct me if I'm wrong,
