Report from day 1 of the ECat Convention in Zürich
Andrea Rossi presented a report by „independent parties" („professors of universities" and „engineers from military environments"), signed by nuclear engineer Fabio Penon. All parties that participated in the report are still operating to complete their analyses and operations. The document will soon be online. Here's a few things I noted: - The classic ecat is stable at low temperature. „it has been safety certified from SGS for all Europe". But applications require hot temperatures: the „hot cat" - hot cat: analysts were allowed to dismantle the whole reactor system before and after operation. Rossi said he was only a observer and did not operate the system. But Fulvio Fabiani operated the security and control systems, as the report states. - It's problematic to store hydrogen in such a system (especially if you want to receive a safety certificate). Therefore, they had to develop a storage device that takes up hydrogen and releases it at a certain temperature. - Calorimetry: infrared camera (military devp for missiles). Therefore, the reactor must be ablack body. Paint had to be developed that stays black at 1200°C and was developed with the help of a company that produces paint for fighter engines. - Convection energy was measured (with border pixels) and corrected for. - All in all, Rossi was flowing, didn't have to think what to say, told an anecdote. „the hot cat is a war ship, not a cruise ship". „I'm investing in it and I believe in this product" By now the report is online: http://www.e-catworld.com/2012/09/high-temperature-e-cat-report-published/ LEONARDO engineer Flavio Fabiani spoke about security and controls, (made many jokes,) and left all questions to be answered by Rossi. Also Rossi's entourage from PROMETEON srl (Italian branch) didn't answer questions. It's up to the boss and will happen today: - One Central Control Single Unit per ecat in a fat cat controls: (a) water inflow, (b) temp in exchanger (reactor), (c ) security valves, (d) pressure inside the reactor, (e) dryness of steam, (f) input voltage and amperage. The CCSUs supervise single modules and bring them down if they malfunction - All CCSUs ae LAN connected and can be internet remote controlled - A fat cat (MW1) has 90 modules, 3 of them sleeping. „sleeping modules" will automatically turn on when another module turns off (eg when fault), stabilizing output There may be flaws in my report.
