Dear Andrea,
It seems that Li-air (LiO2) batteries development have made some progress. It may be possible that within a few years electric cars can run on one charge as far as patrol cars on one tank of petrol, having a similar energy content per litre and per kg: http://phys.org/news/2016-07-lithium-oxygen-battery-greatly-energy-efficiency.html
Do you think this type of development is a compatitor of the QuarkX or will it be an addition or even lead to a symbiosis with the QuarkX?
Thank you for giving your insights.
Kind regards, Gerard
For the wafer type Ecat utilising a boiler to encompass a slot and be used at higher pressures, it would have to be stayed similar to a conventional steam engine firebox, this would be complex and expensive to produce.
As a higher pressure alternative to the enclosing boiler with the slot entry, it may be possible to use two conventional dimple jacket panels, flat faces towards each other with enclosure plates on three sides to form a non-pressurised open slot, this assembly would be positioned with the slot vertically on the side, the slot gap would be dimensioned to provide a close side fitting Ecat wafer for good heat transfer, but still easily installed and removed on recharging.
Alternatively the gap between faces to be adjustable to accommodate wafer thickness tolerance variation or faces adjustable to open then close to clamp against the wafer surfaces on installation / recharge, both versions providing a smaller air gap and better heat transfer, flexible pipe connections required in both cases.
Each dimple jacket could have controlled amounts of water injected internally through single or multiple connections in the lower edge, with heat from the Ecat wafer then turning it into steam, the steam then extracted from a single connection on the upper edge.
Depending on design, dimple jackets can be produced for up to 20 barg / 300 psig = 215 deg C steam, or possibly higher, all depending on material of construction / tensile values at temperature / design code, against trade-offs on plate thickness for heat transfer and the various heat transfer coefficients.
The size of the ever expanding universe is defined by the speed of light times the age of the universe. Nothing can exist out side that diameter. Everything inside this diameter is subject to the curved time-space of the gravitational fields of all matter created by the big bang. Gravity is accumulative, so there can never be true “zero gravity” in the expanding universe and thus there can never be flat time-space in the expanding universe. Since nothing can occupy flat time-space and no state can change in flat time-space, what is the meaning of time and space within flat time-space?
Paul:
The issue is that, by the General Relativity, gravity is curved space- time: this having been accepted, it is like to ask if it has been born first the egg or the hen.

Hello mr. Rossi,
I am since many many years following the Information about LENR, I would like to ask you if it’s possible to tell when the E-Cat will come to Germany?
btw: can you tell me what’s your opinion about Victor Klimovs research about nanocrystalline effects/solar cells?
Dr Andrea Rossi,
I do not understand why you are receiving so many complaints about the fact that the E- Cat is not yet massively diffused: they do not understand the enormous importance of what you made with the 1 year test of the 1 WW E-Cat and the start of the production of the industrial plants. You made history.
Thank you for your hard work, that’s what you merit to hear.
Cheers,
Judy
Paul:
That’s Phylosophy, not Physics. In Physics ( General Relativity ) c in the vacuum is a constant independently from whatever is or is not there. Besides, nobody knows if there is or there is not “something” and here is anyway something to refer the speed to: the time during which the distance of the “FOSSIL” photons from us increases.
Beyond this point, the discussion becomes phylosophycal.
Warm Regards,
A.R.
The light that was generated by the first moments of the Big Bang is currently traveling through a space void of matter or energy. What does velocity mean when there is nothing to measure it against?
Dr. Rossi: I was having the same trouble with my tennis until I picked good partner, I would suggest rather than playing against your wife you start playing doubles with her. (: May I suggest playing just once a week does not cut it, the QuarkX can do without you a couple more times a week.
Dr Andrea Rossi:
What you said answering to D. is true.
Thank you for your solid work and congratulations for the start of the production of the industrial plants.
This is a historic event.

From a last month’s article inside E-cat World site, I found this nice comment about Andrea from Ophelia Rump (a reader particularly versed in scientific topics); the comment was an answer to another somewhat rude post and grabbed a record-breaking approval rate by readers:
“Get a grip on yourself, he is an eccentric old researcher with a blog and a chat thread, he talks to people who are interested when he feels like it. He is not a performing chimp entertaining your passions for profit. Have you not yet realized that he does not give a fig or a farthing what other people think unless they are supportive of him as a human being?”
Very nice and intense, in this complex story experience and intuition regarding human nature tells perhaps more than other cold-hearted scientific proofs, as another reader said sometimes ago.
“Old researcher” is way off, in my opinion, this daily schedule:
“from 6 am to 7 am I study Physics
from 7.30 am to 5 pm QuarkX and patents
from 5 pm to 7 pm litigation
From 7 pm to 8 pm exercise”
is tailored to an enthusiast beginner!
moreover, Andrea passes over his most productive phase of sleeping time, from 4am to 6am, when he’s racked and annoyed in the bed with the permanent revolution
Dear Andrea,
can you explain how you chose Sweden as Europe’s ECat manufacturing fab.
It is a matter of labor cost or workers efficency or tecnological environment or politics or financial opportunity.
Do you have some idea on how many labors will be employed!
Best Regards,Giuseppe
1) How many individual Quark X’s have been built so far that have proven to operate satisfactorily?
2) What’s the longest length of time a single Quark X has ran continuously?
3) How many Quark X’s do you have have running at the same time on a daily basis?
4) What is the general temperature range of a Quark X when configured to produce maximum electrical production?
5) Do you think that a factory to produce Quark’s could fit into a shipping container that you could then sell? For example, you feed components (fuel, tubes, wires, electrodes, etc) down one end, a line of robots do the assembly, and completed Quark’s come out the other end?
6) If the above is possible, could a small, compact Quark “factory” actually be a product in and of itself?
I would like to see the Quark X be mass manufactured by the billions in the shortest period of time possible. For this to happen, I think that production must be distributed across the world. You could begin by building one plant and manufacture thousands of Quarks. Then, after customers test out the first products, you could offer the plants for sale.
If you offer the plants for sale at a price no one can beat, then obviously no one will be able to come up with copy cat reactors they can produce at a lower price.
Brokeeper:
Manual labour, so far, but we are working very hard to complete our production capacity with the help of ABB.
I really hope we will have our robotized lines at least installed by the end of the year. I really hope, but there are problems to be resolved. A lot of work has still to be done.
Warm regards,

D.:
It is true exactly the contrary.
Not only I did not put obstacles to the R&D of our competitors, but our hard work has generated a scientific environment that has opened the doors also to them.
Before the event of January 2011, when we introduced our E-Cat prototype together with Prof Focardi of the University of Bologna, the LENR people was confined in a village of zombies and the LENR were globally considered less than zero. No one was financing any serious R&D in the field.
After my work LENR got a tremendous momentum that initiated serious R&D by concerns like Volvo, Elforsk, Mitsubishi, NASA, MIT etc etc etc. in all the world, obtaining the attention of the highest echelons of the DOE and the DOD in the United States of America, where before my work when somebody tried to introduce the concept of LENR the reaction has been similar to the reaction of Dracula in front of crucifix and garlic.
Without hypocrisy and false modesty I claim that without our work, our tests, our plants, without my extremely difficult work, in which I am leaving years of my life and part of my health working and studying an average of 12 hours per day now and 16 to 18 hours per day ( nights included) during the 1 year test of the 1 MW E-Cat, without all this the LENR would be still a village of zombies. With all respect, this is my sincere opinion.

Can you give us an update on the status of your work on the different versions of the E-Cat.
a) How is work going with the 1MW E-Cat plants?
b) Do you have multiple customers with orders in for the 1MW E-Cat plants (low temperature)?
c) How is work going with the QuarkX?
d) Is the QuarkX mature enough to be incorporated into industrial plants?
e) Do you have any customers with orders in for QuarkX plants?
f) What is the status of having a factory or factories ready to produce your products?
Dr Rossi,
Interesting to note some of the claims against Industrial Heat were dismissed.

It comes down to the question:
Does curved space-time create gravity or does gravity create space-time?
The gravity wave caused by the big bang is also traveling at the speed of light.
It would be interesting to note whether the first photons of the big bang occurred before or after the gravity wave.
