I am not allowed to say..... repeatedly.

I sure hope he has put his work down on paper or memory or some sort.
Because if what he is doing actually works and he passes away....all that research is gone.
Is he really that aloof? and cares not for his work? or the proof of his process?

New Russian Parkhomov/E-Cat Replication Claim: COP over 3 at 1347C


Well, Parkhomov has now detailed the procedure to light off a reactor and how to get a COP greater than 3 at over 1,300^c so electrical power generation by steam turbine is certainly out there on the table now.

Parkhomov tells you exactly HOW to go do it -- he puts it out in the public domain by doing so.

Rossi has no unique marketable secrets once Parkhomov puts it out in the public domain.

New stuff, the low temp thin wall reactor mentioned might be labeled "the room heater core" by someone wanting to commercialize what Parkhomov has just delivered to us.

Rossi's technical lead is now whittled down to about zip, as the others make rapid progress.

The Russians have shown that they are perhaps going to be the leading country in LENR research with them having just about caught up with Rossi at this point in time.

The Chinese are there too, keeping up with whatever has been published.

Oil and coal long futures are down again .....

China has problems right now, and the US economy is doing "better?" and our dollar has more trust than the alternatives?

Or else you can say the currency market is a monkey shite crapshoot that goes up and down and up and down .....

This past year Rossi has invented and built and proved out a much larger 250 kilowatt "tiger" core which is not a hot cat variety that is much more efficient than the old e-cat cores.    COP is well over 20 at all times, with some tigers apparently churning out over 100 COP due to some very long self sustain run periods.    This core can apparently exceed the melt temperature of nickel in areas of the core and keep on making heat.

And remember, this is gen 1 on the tigers with the software under development, so it will only get better over time.   Remember, right now this one vertical rack makes up a 1 megawatt steam plant.



All current plans for small to mid-sized commercialization seem to revolve around this core type.   This is the core type that sees all the distributors in all the countries beginning to take pre-orders to sell steam heat.

Industrial Heat did NOT buy all of Rossi's IP, and they certainly did not buy any new stuff that Rossi hadn't invented yet.   I think the head of IH was telling the truth when he said that IH and Cherokee simply backed Rossi with the needed capital at a critical juncture in order for him to make the jump to from theory to commercialization and that IH does not have any hands on ownership in the development process per se.    

Industrial Heat is the Rossi distributor for the Americas and China however.   Industrial Heat likely is represented on the Leonardo board, but details like this have never been disclosed.

The little 10 watt cores of the original 1 megawatt steam plants are all pretty much water over the dam now, and the original 1 megawatt plant is running off the 4 tigers now with all the banks of 10 watt cores sitting there as "total failure backups".   Drop in an extra 2 tigers for maintenance/redundancy and you could yank out a container full of racks for the small no longer current cores.


=========================================


Rossi still needs to develop a still much larger unit replaceable cluster system, a 10 megawatt cluster, which will be the size required to move on into coal fired power plant refurbishment work.   Rossi's newest large core designs seem to be hot cat varieties, but so far have not shown the needed long term durability yet.

To do this development work he will need a very large commercial boiler to utilize the output from such a mega cluster.

By my count a total of 6 nations now have admitted LENR initiatives on a national level -- America (DARPA and NASA) is included in this list although it is still mostly held secret.

America's program is over 5 years old and has been top secret until NASA let the LENR rocket engine out of the bag several months ago.   DARPA is hanging closed mouthed still at this time, but Rossi has dropped hints he sold them a plant a while back.   They may be asking  Rossi for a Tiger plant now, which is cool but it will go silent with whatever uses they find for it.

It is rumored that DARPA has a few LENR heating units installed in cold climates for environmental use testing and has one prototype power generator station that "exists" somewhere.  

Rank these as reliable as Intel Brown Vapor rumors and you'd be about right ....

As the technology moves past the Model A era and into the public Model T era then we will see more evidence of "old style" LENR tests come poking out of odd corners all over the place.

Anything new and powerful is going to be held as a military secret for just as long as possible.   That is what is called "military advantage"out in DARPA land.

or, the Tesla story...

http://www.e-catworld.com/2015/08/12/abstracts-of-conference-paper-for-octobe...

'There are 35 presentations listed on a variety of topics dealing with cold fusion/LENR and ball lightning. One that might be of particular interest here will be the work of Alexander Parkhomov, K.A. Alabin and S.N. Andreev who will be presenting “Results of Isotope and Element Composition Analysis of Nickel – Hydrogen Reactors Fuel”

Their abstract reads:

Results of isotope and element composition analysis of fuel before and after 4-day work in the reactor similar to the high-temperature Rossi reactor are presented. Comparison to analyses of Rossi reactor fuel and others nickel – hydrogen reactors are made.

Some other titles that caught my attention are:

Erzion Interpretation of Rossi & “Lugano” Experiments with “Hot E-cat” Cell
Miniatoms of Hydrogen – the Key to Theoretically Explanation of Low-Energy Nuclear Reactions
Tectonic Conditions of Cold Fusion Preparation in the Earth Crust
Calorimetry and Temperature Monitoring of Ni + H2 System under the Influence of an Electric Discharge
Nuclear Fusion and Transmutations of Elements in the Earth’s Core
Development of Breakthrough Technology of Steam Turbine with Heat Supply Based on Clean Low Energy Reactions (LENR)"


I have said several times that the Chinese government is taking LENR seriously and has a quasi-military program of over a hundred scientists working on it in secret.   They are driving for LENR automotive functionality just as fast as they can.

The Soviet thrust is a little more academic in nature but is showing the size of their effort by this conference.

Note that Parkhomov is still their lodestone, but Parkhomov has not been idle lately either.


===============================


It is also worth noting that mainstream Russian and European career nuclear scientists are part of this effort -- in America all our mainstream boys still have their heads ducked down protecting their posteriors.

With all the millions of vehicles on the road now and in the future, big oil is still going to get richer.
And if COP takes over house heat and electric generation..... it will take "decades" for the automobiles to filter out.
That will give big oil a chance to change their refining factories to battery factories or such.
Same companies, different energy for sale.
Don't think you are going to buy an LENR machine for the house anytime in your lifetime... maybe your great-great-grandkids or their children, but you or I will be rotting in the dirt for a few before any are deemed safe and efficient enough for home usage.
Face it, you and I both know how politics work, their homes and pockets first, then the rich, then the upper class, then the upper middle class, then us....
