LENR with Zeolites
| October 1, 2012 | Posted by admin under George Miley - Lenuco, Iraj Parchamazad, Melvin Miles |
Ruby Carat of Cold Fusion Now conducted an interview with Iraj Parchamazad and Melvin Miles. Most of the interview is with Iraj Parchamazad, where he talks about his LENR research at the University of LaVerne, in LaVerne, California. Zeolites are said to have some unique properties including an intrinsic electric field, resonances, and cavities allowing only certain sized molecules inside. Followers of LENR will note that some of those intrinsic properties have been found to be important for LENR in the past. Dr. Parchamazad showed two reactors that are very small, and his approach is similar to that of Dr. George Miley in that no external energy is applied. The zeolite is infused with very small palladium particles (10-20 atoms each) and deuterium is applied at pressure. Dr. Parchamazad noted heat generation in 10 out of 10 experiments. In this case, any heat generation is infinite COP because there is no input power. Dr. Miles made an off-the-cuff remark during the interview that the energy density would be on the order of a megawatt per gram, but Dr. Parchamazad was understandably cautious about that remark. Dr. Parchamazad hopes to scale up the reactor and conduct additional experiments with fine measurements of the amount of palladium being used. In addition, he would like to measure for nuclear byproducts such as tritium, but noted he could use some modest private funding.
Overall after watching the entire video I liked the approach, the intranet is a really great tool for these types of individuals.
At first from the mechanical perspective as soon as I heard the word zeolite I figured oh great “kitty litter” reactor.
when I saw the glue and plastic and threaded fittings I went oh great no pressure and then I found out “no heat”.
What interested me though was the fact that what they were contending added to what my friend a retired nuclear physicist that used to work at Livermore Lab for the past 10 years has been preaching to me about the zeolite they were using in one area of research. He states he has invented a battery system years ago (I have heard that one before)using the zeolite process.
One of the facts he stated over and over is that the zeolite is like a heat battery. The more heat put into the refining process the more heat generated (electrical)as a product when exposed to water or in this case 2H. So heat is required to make the material in the beginning and is like the magnetic product from the produced magnet. It takes gauss oestreds or watts in, to produce a magnetic field sufficient to magnetize an object causing measureable gauss in the object proportional to gauss ostereds put into the magnetizing field. So again I figured great why did they leave that out.
There are other important mechanical issues I had seen that I want to comment on after I watch this over again.
The fact is that our government labs use it for experiments, the zeolite is abundantly available relatively inexpensive, and it does store heat ( heat in equal to heat out).
I found their approach very sincere and honest and even though a few things aren’t completely disclosed, this method of disclosure seems to work well for exhibiting work and possibly using the intranet as the work is being completed will be the way of the future for inventors to get their work out there. The rules have changed in the USPTO, we are now a “first to patent” country our president signed it into law this year.
It’s actually been that way in reality for quite along time. The independent inventor get’s an idea, makes the product, and needs money to advertise to get sales, a method to keep track of that, a manufacturing facility, and plenty of workers to build product. Well every step subtract the reward a little and then what you end up with is more work and less profit. So even though the law in the US has always stated “first to invent” the patent gave the inventor a right to hire an attorney to go back to try to prove he or she was the inventor, “was” the first inventor. If your inventing things you don’t manufacture because that costs a bunch of capital outlay and “all” your inventive time dealing with manufacturing and people issues.
So these two men and their example of the work they have done have shown they have experienced a long dedicated history of observing quantum fluctuations, and really interesting was the production of sodium and potasium which if I am not mistaken is the chemical produced in the body to extend and retract a muscle. Very interesting the geometry also, it seems we are entering into the age of awareness that there are and have been multiple methods for alternative energy production and storage.
The only difference now is that the prices are going higher on current fuel for internal combustion engines generating our electricity, and our awareness that the alternative solutions are comperably priced when compared to the other costs involved when depending on earth resources for energy. But still it seems always a trade off, energy in is greater that energy out and all costs incurred in do not produce the entire input into product out. The value of our earths oil far outwheighs the value of going somewhere or consuming electricity. The suns radiant energy is sufficient to charge up the zeolite in a reflected situation during sunlight and then recover the equal amount of heat for cooking at night when the sun is down. Great research and great video.
After the second time watching this video the 500 degree heat to prevent the oxidization was not that clear as to approximately how much heat the process takes. That’s one thing about the Rossi, Defkalion and the other claimants of LENR fail to clearly detail in their announcements.
What they put in is an electrical product for the Rossi, Defkalion, and others LENR products, then the kw is calculated in and thermal calculations are made out. This is a slight of hand effort to “confuse” just a regular person trying to understand if something is working or not.
There are miles of endless ways to deceive people using this method and for that I am relatively confident quite a bit more effort is put into trying to convince others that it is possible to make LENR work in an e-cat or Hyperion than any apparent manifestation into reality of the claims they have both made.
Everything takes electrical energy and it is made apparent in the physical world by a rotating flywheel driven rotationally by reciprocating elements powered by some type of fuel. BTU to Kw or Kw to BTU that’s a straight up constant formula, but that’s not the correct way to rate a product for efficiency, there are many more factors to consider.
Like elements need to be calculated, if the e-cat, Hyperion, or the Zeolite method produce heat BTU then great, let’s take the electricity off the input and convert that to BTU thermal energy. They all are using thermal product result for calculation, and electrical input figures and converting them. Let’s go the other route and convert the Kw input into BTU and then divide the output heat differential (total rise NET) in total heat per volume of liquid and don’t worry about the steam, there likely has never been steam from the LENR reaction viewed in the video exhibit’s, simply the input in BTU was the power result in steam.
I am sure we will discover LENR by further exploration and the final result will need to be electricity out is greater than electricity in, and compared to the total effort involved in costs to make that happen in real life.
For example eating food = calories = btu = energy for you to do some work that disipates btu as you work and depending how physically heavy the work is and how much you have eaten in food product allows the work to be done for a specific amount in time. Those simple testing methods work when something actually performs as anticipated or claimed.
So how could a person keep working with no food for fuel, if there was more work accomplished than the food consumed that would be efficient.
For example compare what it has cost in lives, money and resources to make examples of fission reactors. Not one has come close to performing in output compared to what the costs are to produce electricity with that method, but we still pour money into the places knowing that in a few years there will be no fuel left, those supplies are really limited and there are no new ones as of yet.
