Abstract:Great progress has been made after 14 years of experiments with the gas-loading D/Pd system. Six watts of “excess heat” were generated in a gas-loaded D/Pd system for 9 h continuously. This experiment has been repeated six times already in various configurations. The “excess power” density in the Pd disk is more than 100 W per cubic centimeter, which is about the power density in a fuel rod of a thermal neutron fission reactor.
