BlackLight Power, Claims Game Changing Achievement of the Generation

[d3x0r]

You have to ask... why isn't all the free hydrogen in the world in this lowest-energy hydrino form, if it exists?

Because the lowest energy state is not the most stable.
An ice cube is a lower energy state, but strives to go to higher energy states if available.


Equilibrium isn't nessecarily the lowest.


The fuel is renewable something like "by releasing the hydrino into the ambient it absorbs radiant heat and returns to a 1/1 instead of 1/137'th energy form"

There's a good comment on:

The 1MW of heat dissipation divided between 6 faces mean that 166.67KW/ft^2 must be dissipated by his 10MW in 1ft^3 device. ??

The best numbers I can find for transfer to water is copper at 455W/(m^2*K) K=C-273.17. That places the Delta temperature at 3670C. The only problem with that is that copper boils at 3200C and water goes super critical at 322C.

Ok, lets ignore the boiling copper and go to steam. Steam to copper is only 455W/(m^2*K) which means that temperature of the outside of the device must now be at over 100,000C or near the temperature of hot fusion. ;~( Things go down hill from here, but I look forward to seeing what he has. :~)

Technical challenges indeed. Stirling says he reckons it'll be 1-3 years minimum...

A good page on water explosions:
http://tesla3.com/free_websites/water_explosion.html

"At MIT (6,7). It was shown that the discharge of 3.6 kJ of stored capacitor energy would create pressures in excess of 20.000 atm. In 7 ml of water. 3.6 gm of water was ejected from an accelerator barrel at a velocity of the order of 1000m/s, sufficient to penetrate a ¼" thick aluminium plate."

"While not in all, but in many discharges under differing experimental conditions of varying capacitance, initial voltage and water volume, the kinetic energy of the water jet was larger than the electrical energy that had been stored in the capacitor bank."

"... A 2 mf capacitor was charged to voltages in the 1-10 kV range and discharged into a water column through a 38 mH inductor. At voltages up to about 6 kV, the water acted as a relatively high resistance and the circuit decayed as an overdamped RLC circuit.

Resistance decreased with time. When the resistance dropped below about 10 W (Ohms?), the water would explode if the capacitor still had sufficient energy."

By making some assumptions about the fog jet's mass and velocity distributions, we can use (1), (2), and (4) to solve for m1, μ01, and μ02  and then calculate the fog explosion's kinetic energy.

The researcher is to be congratulated for reproducing Graneau's work so closely, even to the point of making the same false and circular set of assumptions, as well as using the incorrect Conservation of Momentum argument to account for the momentum transfer to secondary projectiles.

He cites the early papers co-authored by Peter Graneau and George Hathaway, but no reference is found to the later, more definitive work of Hathaway and Graneau that took place after 2002, and that involved literally thousands of "shots", lots of high-speed film and video photography, velocity measurements, and of course the shock-wave imaging using the high-speed Schlieren photography. This later work eventually caused Hathaway to reverse his opinion and endorsement of Graneau's reported findings.

Quoting Hathaway:

I published a rebuttal of the Graneau excess-energy claims a letter to the editor of Infinite Energy Magazine V12 #71 2007 (pg 4). In it, I claim that the conclusions which I published together with the Graneaus in Jnl. of Plasma Physics were not logically able to be derived from the experiments we performed together. In other words, while there may be some gain mechanism in water subject to electric arc discharges, it has not been proven by experiment.

The paper in JPlasPhys referred to is the second of the "works cited" in Tucker Leavitt's report.

Thanks for the link TK

Jerry Decker at Keelynet says this:

How many years have we heard about Blacklight, yep since 1991 and still no product on the market, just like Searls' free energy/flying saucer, Newmans' gyro electron power spike free energy, Lees' thermal free energy power and Moellers' flying car, Negres' compressed air car, ad nauseum, we NEVER SEE THEIR PRODUCTS FOR SALE...every so often when they need money or attention, they post another sensational demonstration or claim that never results in working devices we can buy and use. So take this latest announcement with a huge block of salt like all the other announcements they've made over the last 23 or so years. Put up or shut up. - JWD
