Howdy this is somewhat of offf topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors
or if you have to manually code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted
tto get advice from someone wiith experience.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Will there be some sort of link to something like Google Drive with the data from the clamshell experiment similar to the GlowStick series?

Quoting Bob Higgins:

@Bob Higgins Please may I stress the need for calorimetry (to convince all the skeptics) rather than relying on a complex mathematical simulation. All it would require is a sealed perspex box around the whole apparatus with a measured flow of ambient air going into the box and a measured delta temperature of the air coming out versus the air going in. Small adjustments could easily be made for the ambient air inlet pressure & humidity.

A highly reflective surface on the inside surface of the blocks would also help increase the COP by reducing the heat input required for any given operating temperature.

* * * it will not be possible to do with the Ni+LAH fuel which is electrically conductive. The fuel will short out the electric field. * * * * Doing this would require a dielectric seal at the plumbing end of the tube (presently a metallic seal).


It's not 0 ohms. Whatever resistance it is will be almost 7 times greater at 1200C. If you are amenable, would you measure the resistance sans metallic seal with the fuel loaded before proceeding. I'd do it myself but lack the facilities to handle LAH safely at this time. Thanks.

@Rigel,
I presume the MFMP online video you were watching was of the "!Bang" experiment - obviously so named after the fact. That occurred during a time when we believed the high pressure H2 liberated by the LAH (hundreds of bar) was necessary for the reaction. Since then we have discovered that the experiments that produced excess heat were the ones that leaked, and the actual H2 pressure needed was below 1 bar absolute (a slight vacuum). At this lower pressure there is far less H2 present and less danger. Still it makes sense to be safe. I will take your advice and re-double my efforts to protect against bad outcomes.

While it certainly would be possible to establish an RF electric field in the dummy alumina fuel that way, it will not be possible to do with the Ni+LAH fuel which is electrically conductive. The fuel will short out the electric field, but you could drive an RF current through the fuel that could provide an RF magnetic field. It is a complete unknown what effect such a current would have. Doing this would require a dielectric seal at the plumbing end of the tube (presently a metallic seal).

Given the arrangement of a vacuum pipette inside the stainless steel beer tube, it might be possible to inject RF into the fuel like this:.

@Bob Higgins

Thanks for the update. I did wonder what programs you were using. Another small request. Could you add a text label next to the resistors and caps to specify what aspect they are modelling. For example, I assume that V1 is your ambient temperature, C1 your heater thermal capacity, R7 is your heater to ambient transfer,R6 your heater to fuel transfer, C6 your fuel heat capacity etc (Or something like that).

I added to the live doc above a description of the thermal simulation and the updated results. Have a look at the end. "My kingdom for an optimizer!"
