  • Andrea Rossi

    Dr Vitaly and Irina Uzikov:
    Thank you for your kind concern.
    Here few minutes ago the wind was 135 km/h.
    I do not have problems, I am working safe in my lab.
    No merit at all.
    Hope to meet you soon,
    Warm Regards
    A.R.

    Dear Andrea!

    Many people now worry about you and at the same time are confident that this time you will also overcome all difficulties.

    JPR:
    Correction: the wind now is 55 mph ( 85 km/h ): I read wrongly the data, the speed of 85 miles per hour ( 135 km/h ) will be reached later today.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    LilyLover,
    Thank you for your very kind sustain. Yes, the cat didn’t flinch.

    JPR:
    I am working .
    We have a tornado now.
    I can see from a small window a very interesting pattern of vortexes produced from some geometries. Very inreresting.
    I am safe, well shielded.
    This morning the force here is higher, winds at 85 miles per hour ( about 135 km/h ).
    Obviously curfew has been ordered. The flooding here is foreseen between 5 and 10 ft ( 1.5 to 3 m ).
    The E-cat QX is hurricane proved now ( he he he ). Things are going to get worse, though.
    Now I got a window of internet, that most of time is disconnected. Sorry if for today and tomorrow I could gave to delay the publication of the comments.
    Warm Regards
    A.R.

    Irma permitting?

  • LilyLover

    Dear Andrea,
    You & your family and and your loved ones are in my thoughts and prayers.
    May you be fully protected.
    At all, if your cats get subjected to endurance testing by mother nature, may the kittens grow out of this stronger and better.
    Lots of love.

  • Frank Acland

    Dear Andrea,

    Do you have a backup electricity source in case you lose power? Will it be enough to allow you to continue your work with the QX?

    Stay safe,

  • Andrea Rossi

    Tom Conover:
    Thank you for your inspiring citation from Psalms.
    May God help they who are risking right now to lose all they have after the action of this damn hurricane.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Tom Conover

    Dear Andrea,

    My wife and I are praying for you and all those suffering from these atypical storm systems. I understand your decision to stay at your work place, but … well, we are praying. I am at a loss for scripture to share for the last few days, but this morning, I hope, I have something of value to share. We all have you in our prayers, my friend.

    Tom

    Ps 90:12-17;
    12 Teach us how to count our days
    So that we may acquire a heart of wisdom.
    13 Return, O Jehovah! How long will this last?
    Have pity on your servants.
    14 Satisfy us with your loyal love in the morning,
    So that we may shout joyfully and rejoice during all our days.
    15 Make us rejoice in proportion to the days you have afflicted us,
    For as many years as we have experienced calamity.
    16 May your servants see your activity,
    And may their sons see your splendor.
    17 May the favor of Jehovah our God be upon us;
    May you prosper the work of our hands.
    Yes, prosper the work of our hands.

    Yrka:
    Thank you for your concern. Very kind. Right now from the window of my lab I can see a strong surge of rain and wind, but still not exceptional.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Steve:
    Thank you for ypur concern.
    Our factory is hurricane resistant, my family is safely lodged, I am hurricane proof: as a matter of fact, I am more hurricane than Irma ( he,he,he ).
    Speaking seriously: the storm is increasing right now (12.10 P.M.), wind and rain are surging, but the core of it is moving west, saving to our place the harder part. So far. We all are worried for the people in the Keys, where it seems the hurricane will unleash all its power. They need our prayers.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    JPR:
    Also today the E-Cat QX is making properly his job.
    So far Irma did not hit, in this moment we are just experiencing guts of wind and some rain typical of the average storms in the Miami area in this season.
    The hit is foreseen by this afternoon, by the route of the events cone has changed, in the sense that the hurricane cyclon is rotating toward west, so that it should not hit frontally our area.
    The part of Florida that is supposed to be frontally stricken by the hurricane is now the area of the Keys, between Key West and Marathon.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Lucio Martini,
    Thank you for your insight.
    Warm Regards,

    Dear Ing. Rossi;

    Let me explain to you why the Carnot cycle can not be obtained with steam

    Because you do not waste time, I’m sending you a sketch on which I designed the Rankine cycle that develops between points: 1-2-2′-3-4, to which I have superimposed the cycle of Carnot that develops in points 2 “-2′-3-4 The two cycles, obviously working at the same temperatures and pressures I hope that both visible I hypothesized that the two cycles will develop between:
    T1 = T4 = 40 ° C p1 = p4 = 0.07375 bar = 7.375 kPa
    T2 = T3 = 250.33 ° C p2 = p3 = 40 bar = 4000 kPa
    I save the calculations, the results are:
    ηR = 0.345 (Rankine)
    ηC = 0.402 (Carnot’s)
    with x=71.5% in point 4 stop expiation steam (x is the ratio of the steam that mean 71.5% steam and 28.5%water in a wet steam)
    As expected, Carnot wins.
    However, the problem to realize this loop is in point 2 ” (where x=30.55%)
    It is impossible (or almost impossible) stop the condensation with a steam with x=30.55% title (at counts). In addition compress the steam wet would cause serious cavitation problems and finally in boiler where we have the steam at 250 ° temperature it would enter steam at 40°C with predictable thermodynamic mismatches.
    In the point 3 last problem is this: after turbine expansion, the value obtained x = 71.5% is low, should be x= 90% (but better more) to avoid problems of damage to the turbine.
    To avoid turbine problems, the saturated steam must be overheated in step 3. Saturated steam (in both cycles). But overheating would not get Carnot’s cycle. The overheated part is an isobaric, not isothermal transformation!
    Dear Ing. Rossi, I had, Ihave, and always will have it maximum esteem for you and how much you is doing.
    I also hope that the new E-TIGER QX directly produces electricity.
    Steam would be a problem in special way for the domestic plants
    While I am waiting “my” E-CAT, I have been one the first subscribers.
    Sincerely, and wish you all the best.
    Lucio Martini.

    P.S. I also calculated what happens by moving points 2 – 3 to 30 and 50 bar
    maintaining the condensation at points 1 – 4 at 40 ° C
    obtaining ηR = 0,355 ηC = 0,583 for 50 bar and ηR = 0,332 ηC = 0.382 for 30 bar but point 2 “keeps changing only slightly (x=30%: x=27% in stop condensation 2” Carnot very hight for the pump. But: x=70.3% ; x=73% in both cycles, very low for the turbine)

    Update (Irma permitting)?

  • Steve

    Andrea,
    I’ll be praying for you and for your family’s and team’s safety.
    I trust you are in a safe location, high enough not to be overcome by the water surge.
    I have been too busy with the Law School to routinely post on JONP, but I still read it most every day.
    Please keep up yur most important work,
    Steve

    Dear Dr. Andrea Rossi.
    With fear I wait for the attack of Hurricane Irma on Florida.
    I hope for your strength of spirit and strength of the walls.
    Good luck!

  • Andrea Rossi

    Brokeeper:
    Thank you for your protection. Don’t worry. I saw much more difficult situations than this.
    I am just working with the E-Cat QX and happy to. Nobody is going to stop us, if our work is useful and well done, as difficult as it might be ( it is ).
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Abd ulRahman Lomax:
    I strongly appreciate your candor.
    Your prayers in this specific situation will be useful not only to me, but to all the Floridians. Let’s hope for the best, after we have prepared for the worse. Anyway now, at the eve of the hit, I am working on the E-Cat QX, albeit I sent away all the rest of the team several hours ago. The hit will arrive tomorrow starting at 3 PM Miami time. I am most curious than worried, though. Never seen anything of the kind before, therefore something will have to be learnt, positive or negative as it might be.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • I’m praying for your safety and that of all in Miami, a city that was hospitable to me when I attended the trial, saw the settlement coming down, and saw the joy on all sides that it was over, leaving everyone to pursue their future. All the best, Abd.

  • Brokeeper

    Dear Andrea,
    It is obvious enemies abound to see your work’s destruction, especially those who: ”walked according to the course of this world, according to the PRINCE of the POWER of the AIR, the spirit that now works in the (those) children of disobedience:” (Eph 2:2). What his children have not yet been able to do; he is now targeting you directly as ground zero. He does not want your vision for this world to succeed. I and those here (I am sure) will be praying for those remaining in southern Florida but also specifically for you and your team’s family’s safety.
    May God protect and bless you all.
    Brokeeper

    Dear Andrea,
    I am sure that your lab is in a solid building and no windows that can be broken or that are properly sealed. Probably you even got a generator to maintain the ongoing tests.
    But what about you and your family and colleagues? They all stay there too?
    I have seen the devastating damage Irma caused on St. Maarten island. There is no building without immense damage.
    Please be careful!
    Kind regards, Gerard

  • Luciano Cavalli

    Dr Rossi:
    Since the E-Cat reached max 200 Celsius of T, the ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) is more fit to be coupled with the E-Cat to produce electric energy, isn’t it true?

    Dear Readers:
    I decided to remain close to our factory, where probably the hurricane Irma will hit Saturday and Sunday. Therefore I do not know if the internet broadcasting will work: nobody has idea about this.
    As a consequence of this consideration, I am not sure if I will be able to publish and respond on this blog next Saturday and Sunday “throughout the ordeal” as Frank Acland wrote hereunder.
    If the internet will work, I will do as usual, otherwise I will keep again blogging as soon as the internet will be fixed.
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Frank Acland:
    Thank you for your concern.
    We decided to remain here, well protected, but close to our working place.

    Dear Andrea,

    It seems like whatever the exact path that Irene takes, south Florida will experience some very severe weather. I wish you the best, and hope that you, your family, your colleagues and the E-Cats are secure throughout the ordeal!

    Best wishes,

    We are working today.
    Tomorrow we have to close for the mandatory evacuation. Saturday and Sunday will be the truth days in Miami.
    Nobody can foresee exactly where and if Irma will land in Florida and what will happen, let’s hope for the best, while we have prepared for the worse.

    Dear Dr Andrea Rossi:
    I have been reading your comments for years and it wasn’t until today that I realized that your salutation “Warm Regards” maybe an intentional pun since the Ecat makes heat.
    Is it true?
