    I’m still learning from you, as I’m improving myself. I definitely love reading everything that is posted on your site.Keep the tips coming. I liked it!

  • Andrea Rossi

    Steven N. Karels:
    Component failures. We must invent a component that does not exist, but we are close to resolve the problem. I cannot disclose the particulars of the problem.

    Dear Andrea,

    Previous versions of your reactor passed your 5 sigma reliability trial and worked well in the 1MW machine. Can we assume the recent problems are all due to the electricity generating parts of the reactor?

    Hey, Frank Acland:
    “We Slander” made an interesting outing: writing “My best bid for a date is 1st April” he publicly confessed that the best bid for his dates is April 1st. I think for the first time he did not make a slandering comment, don’t you ?
    By the way, I wish the best to you and the Readers of your blog,
    Warm Regards,
    A.R.

    Dear Mr Rossi,
    Your fantastic paper
    http://www.researchgate.net/publication/330601653_E-Cat_SK_and_long_range_particle_interacions
    and the connected video
    http://www.ecatskdemo.com
    has started a revolution in the field of Physics related to the quantum fluctuations and the reduction of entropy.
    I think this is the real reason of the unbelievable statistics of it.
    Ad Majora,

    Dear Andrea Rossi,

    You alluded to reliability problems associated with the operation of the eCat SKL. There are many forms of reliability problems:

    a. Component failures
    b. Out-of-spec performance
    c. Control issues
    d. start-up and/or shut-down problems.

    Can you characterize the reliability problem or problems you are experiencing with the SKL?

  • PlasmaFan

    Dear Andrea,

    You state…

    D: reliability in long time
    Warm Regards,
    A.R

    Is this reliability issue due to any of the following:

    a) Failure of electrical components in the control box.
    b) Wear and tear on any part of the device caused by the ballerina herself.
    c) Contamination of the gaseous mixture.
    d) Leakage of the gaseous mixture.

    Can you tell us more about what component you’re having to work on?

    Dear Andrea,

    You mention that you are working on ensuring reliability from the E-Cat SKL. What do you think about using technology like a battery to store the electricity produced by the EC SKL, to provide a smooth and constant source of electricity for the end use?

    Best wishes,

    Frank Acland.

    Dear Dr. David Haws, dear Andrea,
    Thank you both for clearly posed questions and your concrete answer to understand the status of ECat SKL issues and hence, arising from it presentation. I think that you know better than me how to deal with this problem and my advice may seem trivial. Nevertheless, at the risk of being annoying and not even knowing the principle of generating electricity in your device, I would dare to give some advice regarding the solution to the problem of long-term reliability.
    Usually the solution lies in achieving uniformity of everything, sizes of structural elements (outer and inner) – tubes, etc, materials, fuel length, supplied electricity and its parameters, rates of change of power, etc., even taking into account the daily cycle and annual cycle (Shnoll’s and Nicolay Lazarev’s experiments showed a change in all parameters, even beta decay of up to 5%). Moreover, that we all are still imperfect in a full theoretical understanding of the Lenr effects.
    But the main attention should be paid to fuel and its components. Components (if you used the same) should be from the same batch, powder of one form and one monofraction. They should be preliminary mixed with high uniformity before placing into tube with control operations. Maybe also preliminary pressed in order not to lose its uniformity before placing into the tube.
    And one more very strange advice. Many years ago I prepared everything, but did not have time to apply it at my experimental stand, when I wanted to catch the characteristics of so called strange radiation. According to my assumption (maybe I am mistaken), strange radiation, generated by any LENR processes, should influence the course of time (slow down or accelerate it). For this, I used a frequency shift from a crystal oscillator placed in different places near the stand and outside it.
    Best wishes to you and to your team.
    Bonne chance!

  • Dear Dr. Andrea,

    I have followed your progress for many years from afar. But recently my excitement is overwhelming. Regarding your current efforts with the E-CAT SKL are the issues you and your team are working related to:

    A) Stabilizing the plasma to produce consistent electricity?
    B) Resolving issues with the control system to consistently produce electricity? Or,
    C) Working issues more related to commercialization such as ensuring a long run time?

    Thank you for sharing so much with us. Best Wishes in your Efforts.

    Dear Robert Luk, I read your paper ‘How to handle risky experiments producing uncertain phenomenon’ and found the content most interesting from the perspective of an independent researcher

    The paper implies that there are experts capable of ascertaining the credibility of a previously unknown phenomena based upon known accepted scientific principles. Where I find this process is flawed is how the procedure of investigation is handled entirely by these self appointed experts. There is a very simple way to ascertain the true worth of any phenomena and this is to sit with the person or persons who engineered the phenomenon from the original idea. Have them explain to the experts how this idea came to them, why they did what they did and then let them reproduce the experiment as they originally did with the experts looking on but not being involved with any part of the demonstration. If the phenomena is unable to be reproduced then everyone goes home and no more time is wasted. If the experiment produces conclusive proof of a useful phenomena then the experiment should be credited as a breakthrough and the person or persons being recognized for helping to usher in a new field of scientific discovery. it’s really not that difficult of an operation.

    My own experience with regards an important new technology is for these experts to say, no you are not allowed to demonstrate it because it is before its time. So this rests my case with certain new technologies and these experts within the establishment. The eminent Ruggero Santilli discovered this flawed system and so too did Fleishman and Pons whose wrong labelling over their experiment as cold fusion sealed their fate. My bi-polar unifying field oscillation technology was patented. My other technology an outgrowth of my original technology has not been patented as this too I consider a technology before its time until Andrea informed readers of the JONP of his desire to put his E Cat into a self sustain mode. The required technology I doubt will not be allowed, certainly not on ResearchGate but it will be interesting if it is able to be demonstrated. My own thoughts are that the experts will come in so fast, even before the project becomes initiated because of the far reaching abilities of the technology
    Regards Eric Ashworth

    Dear Dr Rossi,

    You said that the complete Ecat SKLs will be recycled when the reactor charges are renewed.

    This will have the benefit that any improvements to the Ecat SKL design will be brought into service as the reactors are routinely renewed.

    Best Regards for the presentation of the Ecat SKL. You are right to wait until the product is fully ready for the market.

    @Rodney Nicholson,
    I think yoyr idea is good.
    During the initial period to have the grid as a backup is opportune and it is also a simple connection by means of a cable to the junction box.

    Dr Rossi,
    Do you think that the “scalable ubiquitous EVO” can explain in some measure the Rossi effect and the Ecat operation?

    Dear Dr Rossi,

    As we all sit and wait (with baited breath) for the SKL presentation and results of the independent test, I wonder if it would not be advantageous to publish the results of the current customers units in action.

    Its not necessary to publish the actual customer, but the usage, costs, costs savings, general details, time up time down, heat produced, something for the fans to talk about, process, to deliberate on, to get excited about.

    Best regards

  • Hi Chuck:

    “Dear Andrea,
    When it will be possible to use the Ecat as a main energy source do you think it will be opportune to maintain the grid as a backup ?
    Warm Regards,
    Chuck Davis”

    Given the problems with the grid, among them cost and terrorism, might it not be better to back up Ecats, where that is essential, with another, or several other, Ecats?

    It seems to me that one of the great advantages of Ecats is likely to be to dispense entirely, eventually, with the grid, and focus on local power generation. This way the supposed potential terrorist threat to bring the entire system down would be eliminated. Terrorists might succeed in bringing down one city, but not the entire country?

    Rodney.

    1- all is recyclable
    2- it is cheaper to reprocess
    3- no, but I never said we would be able to separate isotopes. It was an idea proposed from a Reader.

    A.R.

  • Andrea Rossi

    Chuck Davis:
    Yes.

    Dear Andrea,
    In the reprocessing of spent fuel for either the E-Cat SK or E-Cat SKL:
    1. Would you know the percentage left of the spent fuel that could be recycled?
    2. Would it be more efficient and less costly to create from scratch new fuel or cheaper to supplement it with reprocessed spent fuel?
    3. You once mentioned you would reprocess spent fuel to collect isotopes. Do you still have plans for this should there be any accumulated isotopes? Thank you.
    With much respect,
    Brokeeper

    Dear Andrea,
    When it will be possible to use the Ecat as a main energy source do you think it will be opportune to maintain the grid as a backup ?

    watching at the same time
    http://www.ecatskdemo.com
    and observing carefully, I discovered that the “zitterbewegung” (tremor) of the plasma ball is due by pulsations that have a regular frequency.

    I am sorry, but to answer your question I should have to disclose confidential issues.
    I cannot add information to what has been published. But I know the feeling, I too have inferiority complex effects when I can’t understand issues that are kept confidential.
    It’s a common destiny.
