			<description><![CDATA[Even if Rossi and Defkalion have a practical LENR solution they will not share "IP" with community. This project allows a public validation of LENR irrelevantly to assumption about validity of Rossi or/and Defkalion claims. The bottom line is that such public project makes the believe or disbelieve in Rossi and/or Defkalion totally pointless.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[We do pull vacuums between gasses and then purge the supply lines repeatedly. We are confident Oxygen is not getting into the cell in the current phase of the test because the pressure inside the cell is so much higher than atmospheric.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[While the conjecture about the configuration of Rossi and Defkalion reactors is interesting, I am concerned that you may be taking their claims too seriously. I won't argue the validity of their extravagant supposed results here but I have to point out that if they are right, there is not much point to this research. If Rossi and Defkalion are virtually ready, as they claim, to sell commercial, stable and certified kilowatt level LENR reactors, what are you doing with single wires and arguable, low power levels? What's the point if the problem is already solved? Your research makes the most sense if Rossi and Defkalion can not be believed. Thus, how they configure their reactors is sort of moot, don't you think? As it happens, I don't believe Rossi and Defkalion and I think what you are doing is an excellent idea! Sorry to interrupt but I think it needed to be said.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi guys, great work and your efforts are much appreciated. A question that came to mind that perhaps was already addressed elsewhere: how sure can we be that no oxygen - hydrogen reaction occurs inside the tube?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Perhaps Celani adds just enough Ar to ensure that the temperature gradient across the gas mixture is great enough to reach the activation temperatures in the centre of the tube whilst ensuring the glass wall temperature remains below the softening point (~270 Celsius).]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi Robert - nice to be of help I also noticed in Celani's papers that he obtained the best results at wire temperatures as high as 900 Celsius. I would suspect (from some experience) that heating these kind of wires to very high temperatures with high current is not too problematic - provided you take care not to induce too great a thermal shock - i.e. increase/decrea se current/temp slowly.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Reading Celani's papers the gas admixture is 75/25 H2/Ar. This makes no sense to me - why add a smallish proportion of inert gas (unless it is a typo in the paper)? The thermal conductivity of Argon is 10 times less than H2. The addition of 10/90 H2/Ar (for example) might make sense if reducing the thermal conductivity of the gas admixture enables the necessary temperature to be reached to initiate the LENR.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[As expected (read message #9), as ambient temperature increases (perhaps due to people presence, lights turned on, etc), calculated excess power decreases. This what I can see from the most recent data from the live page here: http://data.hugnetlab.com/ It is likely that no excess heat is being generated at all, currently. It's true that this is still the beginning, though.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@mario palladino: personally I don't agree much that data smoothing to remove irregularities. They are part of the experiment. Let's get rid of them physically (for example by fixing the power supply), not artificially by software. By the way, there is a new data point every 2 seconds, so the data rate is 0.5 Hz, not 24 Hz. It's true that in other blog posts here I did propose data decimation in order to save server bandwidth, but decimation, if not extreme, retains most of the trend characteristics for each data series (especially if we're just cutting out what cannot be displayed due to lack of chart display resolution), does not smooth out the existing data. Note: to clarify, since I write here often, I'm not a sponsor or a member of the MFMP team.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@Igor: they say that the same result will be accomplished by reducing hydrogen pressure inside the cell. In that way convective heat transfer towards the glass tube can be reduced, obtaining higher wire temperatures. Of course, improving heat insulation would be the best option (and for the occasion, replacing the glass tube - since the inside would not be visible anymore anyway - with a steel tube might be a good idea for several reasons). That probably goes outside the scope of the current experimental phase (more or less exact replication of Celani's results with the same set-up).]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[As of now it looks like the more ambient temperature decreases, the more the calculated apparent excess heat increases. There appears to be a direct relationship between these, which leads me to believe that at the moment no excess heat is being generated at all, since reactor temperatures are also slowly but constantly decreasing too. If this is true, then during the USA morning with people around the reactor, apparent excess heat should decrease again to yesterday's initial values. A bit of a disappointment, but even Celani as far as I know doesn't have a 100% success rate with new treated wires. The ones that work, though, should clearly (and reliably) do so.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[One fix you might like to consider is to put an external glass tube over the quartz tube. This would provide you with both insulation and a clear line of sight. I used to do this in my copper vapour laser research. (In my case to stop UV) You could hold the glass outer tube in place using ‘PEEK’ ‘O’ rings placed around the quartz tube (these O rings are usable up to 550 Celsius). Cut one of the O rings to provide an air pressure equilibrium path. http://machinedesign.com/article/peek-o-ring-seals-minnesota-rubber-and-plastics-0201]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks guys for fighting and (hopefully) lighting fires throughout these past few days. The results are very interesting so far and especially the insights as to what is going on. I found this presentation by Celani to also be very helpful: http://www.22passi.it/downloads/Celani_ICCF17_Trasp3.pdf]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi Rats, We saw something fascinating in the data that lends credence to some of the claims and configurations of players in this field. We are agnostic to the specific maker or inventor of a particular approach, we just want to see if we can help get the New Fire lit. We are not setting out to show that a person is or is not telling the truth - we are just following the evidence and this evidence that we have seen come out of the first few hours of our first experiment is seemingly showing something really interesting.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[It's interesting to note that currently active wire impedance is steadily increasing. This appears to be correlated with the decrease of hydrogen pressure inside the cell (probably leaking). Calculated excess power appears to be very slightly increasing too. However it's being significantly affected (at this level; I guess it wouldn't matter if excess power was larger) by irregularities in input power due to the power supply. A certain cyclical component in the output power chart trend definitely seems to be related to such power supply issues.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I don't want to turn this blog into one of those farcical ecat websites but it concerns me that you are mentioning Rossi and Defkalion while conducting serious LENR experiments. I think it has been quite conclusively proven that both have been lying through their teeth.]]></description>
