    It has moved enough.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    It may be time to think about how to show Specific Power (W/kg) and Specific Energy (J/kg) of the QuarkX on a Ragone plot.

    Is it reasonable to predict that the “Red Dot” of the “Ragone plot” has moved a lot?

    Poetic regards,

    Joseph Fine

    Robert Curto:
    Correct. I am a decent cross country skier.

  • Dr. Rossi, What is Vasaloppet ?
    I had to look it up.
    Vasaloppet is Swedish for “The Vasa Race.” is an annual long distance cross-country Ski
    Race held on the first Sunday of March.
    The 90km, (56 mile) Course is in Northwestern Sweden. It is the oldest and longest
    cross-country Ski Race in the World, as well as the one with the highest number of
    Participants, 15,800 and Attendance 70,200.

    Sven:
    Yes, the manufacturing will be made in the USA and in Sweden.
    I hope to make the Vasaloppet next year!
    Thank you for your kind words.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Sven

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi:
    I am very glad that you have chosen Sweden for the manufacturing of your products for Europe. In Sweden you have a strong support, as I can see among my friends.
    I remember you wrote here long time ago you wanted to make the Vasaloppett…next year, maybe?
    Godspeed,
    Sven

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    You projected a refueling cost of $0.01 per kW and also stated that refueling would be done once per year.

    Assuming a conventional Carnot cycle electricity production plant of 1GW output capacity and a 40% Carnot efficiency means 2.5GW of thermal power generation. This suggests an annual fuel cost of $25,000. During that year, the plant, running continuously, would product 8,760 GWhr of electricity. Or about $3 per GWhr for fuel cost only. Obviously, other costs would add onto the actual delivered price. This assumes a very high COP so that no significant amount of output electricity is diverted to feed the input power.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Paul:
    We consider it irrelevant to be conservative, we put at the denominator of the COP the whole energy consumed by the QuarkX, but obviously some heat is dissipated; I measured a 2% loss.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Paul

    Andrea,

    What percentage of the input power is consumed by the ballast resistor?

    Thanks for the link,
    Warm Regards,

  • Andrea Rossi

    Prof:
    Good question, obviously related to the COP measurements.
    We have chosen a specific oil of Shell that has a precise data sheet supplied by the manufacturer.

    Dr Andrea Rossi:
    The puppets of the ventriloquist of Raleigh are continuing to talk in the blogs of your past, which makes two considerations pop up:
    First consideration: they use your past because they have not real evidence against you for the litigation, otherwise they would not lose time for archeology (they cite events of 25 years and more ago)
    Second: you have been completely cleared from your taxes issues in Italy and from all the accusations that caused you to go in jail and they know it, but pretend not to know to try to assassinate your character with fraudolent biased journalism
    Third: being the ventriloquist Tom Darden and the pious JT Vaughn so obstentatiously gracious guys, they should read the Gospel where Jesus says “Why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?”: I invite the Ventriloquist and the Pious to read the comment sent to this blog from Hugh H. Maguire about a week ago, where are reported the links to the criminal customary activity of Cherokee, that is the mother of Industrial Heat: there we can see that also the “charity” organizations of Cherokee are covers for criminal activity. I am sure that more investigation on this specific issue could reserve stunning surprises.
    And to them who want to know the real story about your past, I suggest to go to http://www.ingandrearossi.com
    Godspeed,
    Ing. Carlo Antonini

  • Russell

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi:
    Can you tell us what is the COP of the QuarkX?
    I didn’t understand it, yet.
    Cheers,
    Russell

  • Prof

    Dr Andrea Rossi:
    Are the specific heat and the density of the oil you are using as a fluid to cool down the QuarkX certan and precisely measured?

    Dear Andrea,

    To their dismay it’s not a cat but a tiger’s tail IH is holding running around in circles in an attempt from being eaten. 🙂

  • Abram

    Dr Rossi,

    Can you agree with this Statement:

    Rossi knows his technology works and along the way
    found out that IH are a bunch of unreliable guys
    that wanted to ditch him sooner or later?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Franklin Poehler:
    We’ll see. ( We will be first by far ).

    Frankie:
    No comment ( you won the bet ).

  • RPJ

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi:
    How much you think will cost the QuarkX tech per kW installed?
    1- more than 1000 $
    2- between 1000 and 500 $
    3- between 300 and 500 $
    4- less than 300 $

  • Frankie

    Dr Andrea Rossi:
    Reading all the published papers of the litigation it seems your foe has brought no evidence at all for the reason they did not pay you and, on the contrary, you gave a lot of evidence of the fact that they have to pay you. I bet you will answer “no comment”.
    Cheers,
    Frankie

  • Calvin Tell

    Dear Dr Rossi,
    Do you think that your effect will be able to be applied to ships?

  • Franklin Poehler

    Mr Rossi,
    Don’t you think the classic “hot fusion” will be put in the market before your Ecat, after the interview released by ENEA about the fact that they already obtained the plasma?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Prof:
    No.

    Thank you for your suggestion. I am not able to answer, because we did not experiment this particular application, yet.

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    Commercial hydrogen production might be a future application for eCat technology. Using a Sulphur – Iodine cycle and 950 degC thermo source (i.e., an eCat reactor), hydrogen can be produced from water with the Sulphur Iodine being reused. So, at first glance, the eCat technology appears feasible. Perhaps an application in future cars, with hydrogen storage within the vehicle or at the filling stations?

  • Steven N. Karels

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    You posted “substitution” for refueling an eCat reactor module. Do you envision:

    a. a throw away reactor (like a light bulb) or
    b. is it returned to the eCat factory for refurbishment and refueling (similar to an automotive battery)?
    c. Or does this depend on the size of the eCat reactor unit (20W, 100W, 1kW, 10kW)?

  • Prof

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi:
    The comment of Hugh H. Maguire is important. Can you make a comment on it not related to what will be discussed in Court?

  • Andrea Rossi

    Arjen:
    All that mess to produce hydrogen from water? You can do the same with electrolysis ! I did it with a battery and a glass of water ( 2 $ ). Obviously the issue is how much energy is consumed to separate hydrogen from oxygen, but what you are linking to seems all but energy saving. It looks fit to produce funds from the taxpayer more than energy. With all respect.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • arjen

    Dear andrea

    seems like hydrogen can be distracted from water with high temperatures
    see http://www.iflscience.com/technology/scientists-in-germany-switched-on-the-worlds-largest-artificial-sun/

    Are you also looking into this possibility , to use the heat of the quarkx to produce hydrogen?
    or maybe they could use the heat of the quarkx to implement in their system?

    kind regards arjen

  • Andrea Rossi

    Frank Acland:
    1- one year
    2- substitution
    3- premature

    We must wait the end of the R&D on the Quarkx.

  • Lars Lindberg

    Dear Andrea,
    Have you decided what the first mass produced products will be?

  • Frank Acland

    Dear Andrea,

    How long do you theorize that a QuarkX can operate without the need for refueling?

    When the time for refueling comes, will a QuarkX actually be refueled, or just replaced with a new unit?

    What do you currently project that the cost of a 1MW QuarkX plant will be, once mass production begins?

    Thank you,

    Frank Acland

  • Andrea Rossi

    James:
    Thank you for the suggestion.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Steven N. Karels:
    The refueling cost could be around 1 cent/kW, but these are still projections with a wide margin of error.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.
