In the case of this lab, not sure where they got it from because their load is so small that nobody would suggest a three phase set up for it. It’s stupid to have to supply that kind of hardware for a load with less than 5KW. This load was less than 500 watts. That’s like 4 light bulbs.
So the three phase load is pointless! The waveform modification is pointless on a heating element!

If the answer is not what I said....then it’s wrong...
I’ll tell you what we do use waveform modification on...would you like to know?

The first test used 3-phase power, the second DID NOT.
The paper says:
“The E-Cat HT2’s power supply departs from that of the device used in December in that it is no longer three-phase, but single-phase: the TRIAC power supply has been replaced by a control circuit having three-phase power input and single-phase output, mounted within a box, the contents of which were not available for inspection, inasmuch as they are part of the industrial trade secret.”
Never mind....I’ll answer it anyway because your links you keep giving me don’t work so I don’t know if it was discussed.
The answer is, Inductive heating....not a wye hookup resistive coil load as described in the test papers.
Induction can use very little electricity and over time can heat to pretty high temperatures...in a controlled small space. But it would require a additional coil not shown or described in the test papers..and the current would need a way out, either through a wire or any conductor, even a metal support that loops back to the power source, preferably aluminum.
