			<description><![CDATA[>Also, because the system is so low impedance (0.75 ohms) and we aren't doing a real 4 wire resistance and voltage measurement, undoubtedly, some of the measured input power is actually making heat in the copper feed wires outside the calorimeter. So I guess this the reason why increasing power to the wire bundle while keeping the total power constant was decreasing temperatures, right? If with this setup some power gets wasted outside the reactor, this would also prevent even at a low level (for example, something like 10W inside/20W outside 0W inside/30W outside) cycling power while keeping the total constant to create an active internal H2 flux. It would be interesting to know if in CTC #2 which currently has a simpler wire setup, this would be doable or there would still be similar issues.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Yes, it appears that low of a voltage (~4 volts) the power supply can't push that much current. I guess we had never run it at that condition before. At higher voltage it can do a full 6 amps. Also, because the system is so low impedance (0.75 ohms) and we aren't doing a real 4 wire resistance and voltage measurement, undoubtedly, some of the measured input power is actually making heat in the copper feed wires outside the calorimeter. This test, therefore, has turned out rather un-useful. It wasn't hard to do, though, and was worth a try.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[So, I seem to understand that the power supply can't output much more than 4.0A, and since the wire has a rather low resistance (0.75-0.80 Ohm) this means that the amount of power that can be applied to it is limited, am I correct? This would also prevent the on-site 50m wire bundle oxidation protocol I previously suggested. Too bad, I was looking forward to seeing this experiment. Do you have anything planned on this regard? (for example using the same total wire length with a lower amount of wires).]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Something went wrong with the 50m wire bundle after power to it got increased to 15W: http://i.imgur.com/FdSR9Ua.png http://i.imgur.com/FdSR9Ua.png I think the power supply couldn't manage to keep up with it anymore and started feeding noise, which disrupts input power readings among other things. Still, it would be really interesting if input power on the wire bundle really was around 3W (as of writing). If that were the case, then it would mean that a significant amount of excess power (>20%) started getting produced. I doubt it is, however.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[From what I was just reading the Debye temp is lower with nano size particles. Also, no one really has talked much about superparamagnet ism. Accordingly, when an element is transitioning into this state magnetization can randomly flip direction under the influence of temperature. It seems this should generate electrical current. Could that affect our resistance measurements?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@MFMP: for the "anything goes" department, this suggestion recently appeared on the Vortex-l mailing list about using potassium carbonate (K2CO3) is a rather inexpensive thing to try. It could even be attempted on the CTC cell. The paper linked on Lenr-Canr.org especially is quite an interesting read. http://tinyurl.com/o83tbqb One thing worth to note is that the glass tubes Celani uses (borosilicate glass), can contain potassium carbonate. I wonder if tiny quantities coming from them might have a role in producing the [apparent?] excess heat that couldn't be triggered so far in steel walled cells like the CTC cell.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I think it could be a good idea to let the cell evolve from high pressure to low pressure. I think also that could be good to let them evolve "naturally," without applying vacuum, because I feel that we have to reach greater load ratio. We are at 80%, so in a couple of days, we can reach 1:1 load ratio, and that could be very interesting. If this is true, H2 absorption ratio should decrease (and so pressure fall). Which I'm not sure, is that the calculation are ok. Could you please explain in detail how do you have calculated the load ratio? I mean, it seem too easy to load at 80%, without a decrease of absorption rate. Maybe Nickel isn't the only place H2 is being absorbed. Can we precisely characterise that? I think it could be fundamental in order to understand current behaviour. And why I think it could be good to let evolve it from High to Low pressure? It is only an idea, but could be related to the H2 movement from bulk to surface of the wires (like it happens in the H2 purifier machines that work with palladium filter). But for that, more H2 in bulk is needed, to obtain a great effect (my hope, of course) Just my 2 cent]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[There are indications that when internal pressures drops to a very low level, output power increases very slightly after the CTC cell has been reloaded at 10 bar: http://i.imgur.com/oILV33t.png http://i.imgur.com/oILV33t.png I would try to investigate this in an effort to speed up the emergence of positive results. For example: - Deliberately load and unload (by applying vacuum?) the cell in a relatively fast way - Use higher loading pressure - Try oxidizing the wire slightly (could it be that when pressure drops significantly below 1 bar, a small amount of air leaks into the cell?)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Temperature analysis should be interesting here. When low H2 pressure was reached, top temperature was ~513C, but no "overshoot" (which is indeed the opposite). When high pressure, we can see that, after an initial top temperature (but less than 513C ) convection movement are established, and temperature decrease to a lower value. Do you agree with this interpretation? Is H2 inertia at the begin of hot phase an explanation of such behaviour?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Ed, Part of what they say they do is remove the face centered atoms from the FCC crystals The unit cell of nickel is a face centered cube with four atoms per unit cell. These cells are then joined together to make the lattice. I'm not sure there's such a thing as an FCC atom It's possible to remove atoms within the FCC lattice (group of unit cells) and there is speculation that these "voids" play a pivotal role. One of the ways is to affect lattice construction is to control the micro-evolution of the crystals. aka temperature/tim e annealing. Another way is through cold rolling of the metal.]]></description>

I wonder if that is how they do it. Another possibility is that the crystal shape created when it oxides and then loses the oxygen to reduction by hot hydrogen may approximate the Defkalion crystal unit.]]></description>

I did have a company that makes the machines that make nano powder try to sell me one. They are not that big it just zaps a thin wire with a huge current turning it to vapor. Then there are vortex separators to collect the fine powder that condenses out. for the sintering problem that is why people add ZrO2 as an anti-sintering agent Even at 3um I ended up with a 6 cm diameter by 30 cm long solid cylinder, I did not use ZrO2]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'm not familiar with any particular suppliers, but I read about one powder production process which sounds worth exploring for our candidate species. It involves spraying molten metal alloys (like nickel & copper?) through nozzles and into a quenching medium, either gaseous or liquid, with the right combination of velocity & cooling rate to solidify before hitting the bottom of the vessel. Depending on the quenching conditions, interesting particle surface conditions are created which could be consistent with NAEs. Varying the nozzle size and process pressures allows you to adjust the particle size. I vaguely recall a number of discussion points centering around why 3-20 micron particle sizes were likely to be most appropriate, besides the Rossi-said part of it, but I'm not certain enough in my recall to cite the particular justifications. I do know that recent discussions on Vortex and elsewhere make very good points that I've also considered important about the need to have good thermal coupling between the reactive particles and the heat sink, such as the chamber walls, etc. There seems to be little evidence that thermalized particle emissions in the chamber walls are the source of heat; rather, it must be conducted primarily through the bulk material which contains the reaction. Without a good thermal path to ambient, this will lead to destruction of this reaction site rather quickly. For this reason, I personally don't consider bulk powder-based research to be likely to yield much fruit. Rather, the active material needs to be applied in some fashion to a heat-removing surface, perhaps partially sintered in place, or coated with something that still allows the NAE sites exposure to gaseous hydrogen. IMHO, anyhow.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[A good way to test the hypothesis in #101 without disassembling the cell and running it empty (or with a dummy load known to not be LENR-reactive) with pressurized hydrogen might be to cool it off and try to apply 37.75W directly to the constantan wire bundle, without using the external heating wire. Since heat will radiate from the very core of the reactor assembly, temperatures should increase more progressively throughout the cooler outside layers, hopefully with a diminished chance of showing strange oscillating patterns. If this overshoot effect will happen again, then I won't know what to think other than maybe this was actually due to a real LENR effect or some different artifact I couldn't pull out of my hat.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I think data from the latest run is showing that the overshoot effect is pressure-depend ent. The greater the pressure, the more the difference in temperature between the peaks. Also, after seeing data from past days at lower temperatures, I think the higher the difference between the previously set power level and the newly set one is (meaning, the higher goal temperature and temperature delta are), the more this effect is prominent. Sanjeev's explanation in comment #99 might be therefore correct. EDIT: this is what I think might be occurring: The more hydrogen is in the cell, the more heat is convected away from the cell walls. This however doesn't happen immediately. As soon as power is applied, the reactor walls get more heated than they normally would as they are directly heated, but internal convection for that power level hasn't kicked in yet due to some system inertia. When the gas starts moving it transfers heat from the reactor walls to the inside of the cell, which heats up but also makes the reactor walls cool slightly. This process takes place continuously. What we have here might be some sort of very damped oscillating thermal transfer between the reactor walls and its internals, both of which are ultimately trying to reach an equilibrium temperature. The higher gas pressure is, the lower this temperature gets, because the more heat will be convected off the reactor walls to other portions of the reactor tube (its bases?). I'm afraid this might be a plausible non-LENR explanation for what we're seeing here. So this might be a completely different effect than what Edwin Pell is seeing. That it looks similar, according to him, might be a coincidence. (sorry for editing this several times over)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I guess the overshoot can be explained. The outer part is heated instantly when power is turned on and then slowly loses heat via convection inside the tube. Once equilibrium is reached, it stops cooling. The stranger part is the 1 C rise in temperature after that. Once the cycling is over, you should keep it on for many days and see if the temperature keeps on rising. At this time the rate is 1C per 3 hour.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@Sanjeev: that would be extremely interesting, however the geiger counter didn't log anything (although probably there are too many layers of metal for weak gamma emissions to reach it). By the way, inner tube temperature is now higher than it was before the outer tube started getting affected by it. This means the cells producing a higher apparent excess than it did at the beginning of this power step, although still very small, just barely above the confidence interval. http://i.imgur.com/TGtUApM.png http://i.imgur.com/TGtUApM.png]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Last comment (couldn't the 1000 characters limit be increased?) I checked the past 24 hours of outer tube temperature data to be sure. http://i.imgur.com/3c0e4lG.png It has increased only in the past few hours after reactor temperature got increased to 500°C. So it's now understating its output power, while it didn't when it was being tested at lower temperatures. However, it still shows an interesting behavior! After the anomalous spike at the beginning and a dip in temperatures we can see that it's now increasing again, as inner tube temperature data also shows. So maybe something real is happening, and is not stable, which would be a good sign in my opinion.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Ok, maybe before getting excited too soon more cold-blooded analysis of the data is needed. http://i.imgur.com/UnNGS0O.png http://i.imgur.com/UnNGS0O.png Why is the T_Reactor increasing in temperature before the wire bundle resistance increases? This seems to indicate that something is happening to the reactor walls rather than the wires. Power seemed to increase at the beginning like this: http://i.imgur.com/pOOEPlp.png http://i.imgur.com/pOOEPlp.png However, the inner tube (which contains the stick) and outer tube of the CTC cell seem to tell a different story.

			<description><![CDATA[@Ecco, Yes, the overshoot effect is interesting and its not how a normal resistor behaves. A normal resistor will quickly approach the final temperature and stay there. Here, in your graph, we see it going about 12C above its equilibrium temperature, which may mean some heat production, but the pressure dynamics make it complicated to draw any conclusion. May be pulsing the power at right duration will drive it higher and higher ? Like, turn off the power when it overshoots and reaches peak, then turn on again, it should shoot up higher.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@MFMP If we interrupt power very briefly (a couple seconds, or otherwise the minimum needed to make T_Reactor drop below 450°C), can we reproduce the "overshoot effect" immediately? This is a test I would like to try ASAP. If this works (skeptical but hopeful here) you've found a trigger for sustained xs power!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[A bit disappointing that it just turned out to be something caused by somebody inadvertently bumping on it, but it also shows that essentially nothing worth of mention happened in these 4 days of power cycling. Internal cell temperatures appear to have decreased to their old value for this 26W input power level, however output power reads ~0.2W more than it used to. If this isn't a real increase (I doubt it is), then you will probably have to revise your confidence intervals in the experiment documentation, as the stick placement inside the inner tube appears to be critical and you might want to account for differences from its ideal location. Likewise, the effect on output power by diurnal ambient temperature variations should be taken into account too. Just my opinion, though.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@ All Logging my actions yesterday skipped my mind towards the end of the work day. I was "sniffing" for a hydrogen leak with the combustible gas detector. I must have bumped the CTC a little too much. I adjusted it a few min ago (9:50am local time). It looks as though it hasn't come down all the way. I will see if there is still something out of place. I believe everything is back in order. We will see how it equilibrates.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Internal reactor temperatures are now 4°C higher than they used to be before the *event*. Wire resistance is also higher than before by a sizable margin. Perhaps prolonged H2 exposure finally started to do some damage to the constantan wires (which more or less reinforces my idea that to see interesting things you want the wires to be hydrogen-embrit tled). Output power doesn't seem to be any higher than before, though. If anything it's slightly lower for some reason. This looks like one of those typical anomalies in LENR experiments where strange things happen inside, but nothing does outside the reactor. It would be interesting to see what happens at lower or higher power levels.

			<description><![CDATA[@Edwin Pell: there haven't been power down steps, only power "off" ones, and in those there isn't a similar inverse behavior that I can see. Anyway, since it isn't affecting output power it must be a very small effect, maybe local to the internal thermocouple. As a side note, I think the resistance decrease and general trend in output power might be correlated to ambient temperature and internal pressure at the same time. http://i.imgur.com/EQVQGQO.png http://i.imgur.com/EQVQGQO.png Output power especially correlates almost perfectly with the inverse of ambient temperature, so most probably nothing anomalous has happened so far, unfortunately. This was to be expected though, since fluctuations were quite small.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Back on the CTC cell. This is resistance data for completely cooled off wires at varying gas pressures. I used 5 minute average data except for the 2013-6-28 16:29 row, which was 1 minute average (immediately after the cell was filled with 10 bar hydrogen). http://i.imgur.com/E58uD19.png http://i.imgur.com/E58uD19.png It appears that wire resistance might be very slowly dropping, although there are differences in gas composition and progressively decreasing pressure. It would be ideal if a cool state test with standard air were performed. That would give a useful comparison point. If we take 0.7265Ω as a starting point, R/R0 would now be 0.989 BTW, if under air you apply power directly to the wire (instead of using the external heating), you can oxidize that only, instead of the entire cell, which would be detrimental to its structural integrity over prolonged time under H2).]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[#40 Ecco 2013-06-29 16:26 I had this discussion with popeye at ECN last year. The enbrittlement theory fits a couple of the clues that have turned up during tests over the years, Piezo generated gamma rays included. From what I've read, embrittlement is a reversible effect until fractures happen. I'm not sure how that affects the clues we have to date though. I wonder if in the final answer to all questions will include a combination of things to create the effect. (such as embrittlement before annealing)]]></description>
