I am building a reactor based on this concept. What bet are you talking about? Since I am building a reactor based on this theory, will you provide me money to build one?
The total cost of my entire system is less than US$1,000. Send me US$1,000 and I can proceed. (Actually, I have the money and am proceeding, but if you are willing to give me money, I'll take it. But there is another more critical need that I have if you are willing to help, if you live in the U.S.) Jojo BTW, I have considered Axil's concepts below and I believe it will create very little Carbon Nanotubes. The creation of CNT will require a fairly static atmosphere envelope to allow the ionized carbon atoms to condense onto existing seed material - which may be a nickel atom. If the reactor environment is turbulent, the ionized carbon atoms will not condense onto the substrate to grow a CNT. What you get for sparking in a hydrocarbon gas is lots of Hydrogen and lots of CH4 and lots of unstructured carbon soot. Too solve this problem, I have modified my reactor design to have a static environment during the first phase - the CNT creation phase. Then a turbulent environment to distribute the CNTs to the nickel reactants for the LENR reaction. ----- Original Message ----- From: Cy Cle To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Sent: Monday, June 18, 2012 10:36 PM Subject: RE: [Vo]:Could the ECat be a CVD reactor?

Vaporizing bulk carbon is not easy from a practical point of view. In an easier way, without any oxygen in the reactor’s envelop (important), under the action of a spark plug discharge plasma at 60,000C, the hydrocarbon gas would decompose into hydrogen and some sort of carbon dust. This dust may form as carbon nanotubes(a one dimensional superconductive cluster) which would store electrons from the plasma produced by the spark plug. This long thin tube would be superconductive and concentrate negative charge like a capacitor. These nanowires would be electrostatically attracted to the nickel powder, they would attach themselves electrostatically head on to the nickel powder, and their accumulated negative charge at their sharp tip would reduce the coulomb barrier where their sharp tips contacted the nickel powder. This is not the way Rossi’s reaction works, but I think that it is a better way. Rossi’s secret sauce is heat activated to accumulate charge; but the carbon nanotubes accumulate charge in proportion to the discharge rate of the spark plug. If you want to increase heat output on a nanotube based system, just increase the spark plug firing rate. Control of heat output is a simple process with an advantage of simplicity over what Rossi has been struggling with over more than a year. Cheers: Axil"Putting a money bet on that theory. Will support any one wanting to build a reactor incorporating this concept.Physicist
