Brillouin has both good and bad design items in their system. Starting off with the bad part, Brillouin uses wire as a substrate for their reaction. The limited surface area that contains the cavities and bumps on the wire surface where the LENR reaction takes place is limited. Because of this fundamental limitation, Brillouin will likely never achieve a high coefficient of performance (COP) that marks superior operation of a dominant cold fusion system.
In contrast, the systems from Rossi and DGT due to the use of very small particles have orders of magnitude more surface area and therefore very many more cavities owing to the topology of nano-particle piles. They both use low boiling point metals to catalyze copious nanoparticle production. This helps a great deal. But the method of stimulation in these Ni/H reactors is very poor in the Rossi system and just a little better in the DGT system… but not as good as it could be… owing to the nature of their low voltage drawn out 24 kv pulse. On the other hand, Brillouin partially makes up for their poor numbers of nuclear active sites by using a sharp excitation pulse to excite the NAEs into energy production. By sharp excitation, I mean very high voltage and short duration nanosecond electrical pulse that is fast enough in duration to avoid destroying the NAE. Unlike both Rossi and DGT, Brilloiun has demonstrated that pure electrical stimulation can produce cold fusion. When the Brilloium system is taken as a whole taking into account the good things in the system with the bad things, the system is a below average performer forever constrained by its use of a wire substrate. It may be possible to combine the use of billions of small particles together with a sharp nondestructive low amperage and high voltage electrical stimulation producing a large instantaneous power pulse. This may result in a totally controllable high performance reaction with a very high COP potential. As far as I can tell, nobody has yet tried such a Brilloium/Rossi hybrid system yet, but it just might work.
