A Lattice Energy Converter

A Lattice Energy Converter

Frank E. Gordon* and Harper J. Whitehouse

E-mail: feg@inovl.com

As previously reported, a Lattice Energy Converter is capable of spontaneous-initiation and self-sustained production of ionizing radiation and the conduction of electricity from a specially prepared palladium electrode that is occluded with hydrogen without the use of naturally radioactive materials. While the LEC is relatively simple to construct and the experimental results have been replicated, the underlying processes are complex.

In this paper, we will present experimental results along with analysis based on more than 150 years of research into the metal-hydride system and more than 120 years of research into the conduction of electricity through gases.

I don’t know why he calls it a Lattice Energy Converter — it is an ionization battery. But there’s not really supposed to be that many ions present in the non-nuclear experiment. He presents very Strong evidence that hydrogen is reacting somehow to produce emissions that ionize the surrounding gas.

He wrote to Jed Rothwell:
“In any event, these results are unexpected, easy to replicate, and they don’t require a lot of expensive instrumentation which might lead to a lot of replications and make it harder for the scientific community to ignore. I was serious when I said that my grandson was going to replicate the experiments for his 8th grade science fair project. Hopefully they will stimulate a lot of related research that has been ignored.”

The results and replications are being discussed here:

Frank Gordon and I are working on a how-to recipe for his experiment. As a first step, I will transfer the Speaker Notes to the Acrobat file that I uploaded. Adobe Acrobat is supposed to do this, but it does it wrong. (Adobe software is annoying!) Here is the second Speaker Note:

A lattice energy converter (LEC) is a complex device from many perspectives: physics, mathematics, electrical engineering, thermodynamics, and material science. Shown is a LEC cell connected to a DVM with a 10 MΩ internal impedance. The cell consists of a Pd working electrode codeposited from an aqueous (H2O) PdCl2 and LiCl solution. A brass counter electrode coaxially surrounds the working electrode and is positioned so that it is electrically isolated from the inner working electrode. The cell was evacuated after which hydrogen (1H2) gas was introduced into the cell, typically raising the absolute pressure to between approximately 500 to1500 Torr, and the valve is closed. The DVM was connected and a spontaneous voltage was measured. If no voltage had been measured, the cell would be disassembled and additional Pd codeposited onto the electrode and the cell then reassembled with new gas. Our experience is that if the cell doesn’t produce a spontaneous voltage on the first assembly it will after the second or third attempt. The voltage is typically highest when the DVM is initially connected and then drops to a nearly steady value determined by the load presented by the DVM’s input impedance. Over several days the voltage slowly may decline further. For the cell shown the voltage even declined to the point that the voltage changed polarity and the absolute value of the voltage started to increase. After several more days the voltage slowly returned to its initial polarity. We don’t fully understand what is happening but one possibility is that the difference in work function between the inner Pd-H electrode and the outer electrode is slowly changing.

Seems like the batteries of yesteryear were Nickel Hydride’s. Don’t get me to lying about their internal configuration.

This topic has a following, people who wish to learn and discuss the materials presented.

Please refrain from posting anything that doesn’t legitimately address the issue.

The issue isn’t whether we allow skepticism, it is whether we allow hyperskeptics and skeptopaths to ruin the scientific dialog. Civil discussion of the involved science is desired.

Wonder Warthog keeps the list for now. You shoulda been added some time ago. My list on my home page is likely to be less accurate than his list, but I do show you already on it.
