Progress of Reproducing the Mizuno’s Experiment in QiuRan Lab
Hang Zhang and Si Chen Email: 715469127@qq.com
The objective of this study was to independently reproduce Mizuno’s experiment. We replicated the D2(H2)-Pd(Ni) reaction system reported in the literature[1].
On the other hand, we developed a different calorimetric system employing two calorimeters to measure the heat generated by the reaction system. One is a Seebeck calorimeter and the other is based on the hydrothermal temperature difference.
We improved the reliability of the Seebeck so that it achieves 0.1W accuracy consistently. We operated the D2(H2)-Pd(Ni) reaction system at different conditions.
The following observations were found to be reproducible: Condition 1: When the pressure of D2 in the system was higher than 6 kPa, no excess heat could be observed. Condition 2: Initially with ~800Pa D2 inside the system, we applied vacuum-pumping to the system for 5 hours, during which a negative excess heat (heat absorption) pulse was observed.
After rebalancing, we filled D2 to the system quickly to reach 800Pa again, a positive excess heat (heat generation) pulse was then observed, which peaked at 40W and last for 4 hours. Integration of the two pulses would result of a net gain of 40kJ excess heat. An input heating power of 250W was maintained throughout the experiment.
Condition 3:Initially with ~500Pa D2 inside the system, we repeated the operations of quickly pumping vacuum and refilling D2 to reach 500Pa, positive excess heat pulses were then observed in most cases. These pulses peaked at 3-5W and last for 3 hours. An input heating power of 250W was maintained throughout the experiment.
Condition 4: The pressure of D2 in the system was maintained at ~10Pa. Continuous excess heat power of 1.5-2.5W was observed while the input heating power was between 150W and 250W.
In conclusion, we were able to reproduce the Mizuno’s Experiment to a certain extent in QiuRan lab. The power level of excess heat was found to be related to the D2 pressure, input heating power and the vacuum-pumping operations. A
Although reproducible, the level of excess heat power in this study was far less than that observed in the Mizuno’s experiment. In QiuRan lab, we are building and testing new D2(H2)-Pd reaction systems for higher level of excess heat.

If someone says stop, then stop. Do not enter onto a thread on a topic you don’t like just to disrupt, rattle cages, poke sticks, insult the regulars, or engage in trolling activities, etc. ~Jim Robinson
The issue isn’t whether we allow skepticism, it is whether we allow hyperskeptics and skeptopaths to ruin the scientific dialog. Such FReepers who persist in polluting these threads have been asked to leave, and we are asking that they open their own threads if they have comments.

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.
Something is going on in this segment of science. There are a considerable number of research groups studying the matter.

Can you explain in English? Was this somewhat successful in replicating the experiment related to Cold Fusion?
Yes, it was yet another successful cold fusion replication.
Watch the video...see slide #4.
Thanks. Kevmo answered my question. I much prefer written word to watching vids.
I do too, but in this specific case, the pertinent info was in the video and not the text. In my case, I have "very" bad hearing, and uncaptioned videos are very, very painful to view. Fortunately, the relevant info was contained on a slide and not the spoken accompaniment.
I know, but a few words and it’s over:
“supports the possibility of cold fusion.”
