Well, there is a fluorescence connection to the Graneau
("big water") experiment, but it is not obvious, nor
necessarily derived from solar exposure.
Graneau may have found excess energy, but that does not mean
that he got the explanation exactly correct. I submit that
the real source of the excess energy in Graneau's work is
ultimately ZPE. Both the energy derived from breaking of
hydrogen bonds in a 260 atom **water cluster** and any
excess mass derived from exposure to cryogenic temperature
would be derived ultimately from ZPE. It matters not that
the bond energy content is calculated as negative or
positive at the outset.
The Casimir force can be restated to be the mechanical
effects of a "particular spatial strata" which can be
repulsive or attractive within a particular "hierarchical
aether spectrum"- which Frank Grimer is calling beta-aether.
The Casimir is also a "vacuum fluctuation," since that
strata is not physically located in our 3-space but instead
is located in the "active vacuum" (reciprocal space) - as
distinguished from the literal meaning of that word,
"vacuum."
The Casimir is also a secondary (or derivative) "field," but
with field-effects which are dictated by its local geometry
in which spatial effects are operating and focusing or
shielding electromagnetic fields and to a lesser extent, the
omnipresent neutron flux. That is why the Casimir force can
be called a derivative form of ZPE - it only dictates how
other primary fields operate at close spacing - in the case
of the beta-aether, we have what seems to be a spacing of
about 2-20 nanometers.
BTW there are some arguments which try to deny the
self-sameness of the Casimir and ZPE - which are often
political (science-agenda ploys), rather than purely
scientific. For present purposes, the Casimir will be
(re)defined to be a subset of ZPE - which, yes, is an agenda
statement, but an accurate one.
It is my contention that the "local geometry" where the
Casimir force is working is related directly to Dirac's epo
field which is the basis of the ZPF (and is basically a
"negative energy" field). According to the expert on Dirac
theory, Don Hotson, the epo acts as if were a BEC. That is
to say, we move through the Dirac epo field "as if it wasn't
there, without any resistance normally, because it acts
uniformly from another impinging dimension, but with
"super-fluidity."
Super-fluidity is a characteristic of a BEC. When in Quantum
Mechanics, we hear of the "froth of virtual positronium" -
we are referring to the interface between normal matter and
this epo-BEC, which interfacial contact causes some
disruption at time scales that are too short to be noticed
normally. The initial geometric problem with this
interpretation of the Casimir being a subset of ZPE ot the
epo-field, is that the epo is based on a particulate-size of
less than one angstrom, while the Casimir is strongest at
about 8 times this linear dimension- or a spherical volume
increase of about 400 hydrogen atoms.
Coincidentally, this is the exact size of the
water-particulate of Graneau's 'active water' --- which is
water which is maximized in these clusters due to exposure
to high altitude cold - and/or solar. The result is more
clusters per unit of water. This is the *Icosahedral Water
Cluster* of 280 atoms, which can be seen on Chaplin' s fine
site:

When this structure is violently fractured we have a
mini-Bridgman effect and energy release. As Horace
says -"Bond energy" in a traditional sense is an energy
well, and may be a *lack* of potential energy, not a source
of potential energy, BUT as Frank suggests, it does not
matter if (initially) that bond energy is positive or
negative, because it is thereafter shifted by Casimir power
law acceleration to higher order where the eventual kinetic
effects of our 3-space are always calculated as positive.
If Graneau is listening here is a suggestion - try using
superchilled water at about 30,000 psi and around 126 degree
K in order to get into the water through the ice-3 or ice-9
regime, after which there should be an enormous phase change
and double-boost on a discharge of current ! IMHO you
should get far more than the doubling of energy which you
now see - perhaps an order of magnitude more. There is a
possibility that some mixture of cryogenic water with or
without liquid air, when injected into a diesel engine, can
substitute for fossil fuel, in whole or in part.
OK. It may be a small possibility... even miniscule, but it
deserves to be tested experimentally. To me this is the
future of nanotechnology - fuel nanotechnology which
capitalizes on the Casimir effect using cheap materials
(water and air).
