I couldn't imagine a way for the activation energies to be overcome to cause cold fusion, but I did think of a bunch of ways to create a device which appears to make excess heat and attract investors. I don't want to waste intellectual energy thinking of ways to cheat when I have no intentions of doing something like that, but doing so is also important, for it helps identify someone who is cheating.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Suppose you have some kind of magic black box that you claim makes excess heat. You say you can create a closed loop device, but that you haven't yet, for you are not a powerplant guy, rather a nuclear physicist, so in the meantime you have your 500kW generator here, which you invite the local techno-proles to investigate, to instrument with ammeters and voltmeters, and whatever flimflammer and pantookers they want, so they can convince themselves exactly how much power the black box is receiving.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Unbeknown to the innocent crowd, you have rigged a waterline that appears to go to the radiator, but actually it goes right past the radiator, and dumps the Diesel engine heat into the water surrounding your magic device. You could have young engineering students look all over and miss that. The structure upon which the generator sits is made of what looks like ordinary cheapy structural tubing, but that would be a clever disguise. It would carry water to the device. More than 2/3 of the energy converted by the generator goes into the radiator, so the engineering students would be going nuts measuring the electrical power output from the generator, or even the input to the black box, when the excess heat is actually coming from the waste heat from the Diesel engine spinning the generator.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>I don’t know if this is how Rossi is doing it, but I think even I could rig a water line that wouldn't be noticed or is hidden inside the support structure. I could get even more tricky: shunt some of the electrical power to heat the radiator, so that the students and investors would not notice that the bypassed radiator is cold. Then you rig the shunt wires to take off energy before the measurement devices which you invite the investors to install.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>spike<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
