Bob Higgins to test HCl / ultrasound treated AH50 Ni frozen powder...[UPDATE#1 - Experiment is LIVE!]

Written by Robert Greenyer on .

In his own words

"I have started the 32 hour calibration sequence using the reactor tube that I will be filling with fuel on Wednesday (5/3) or Thursday 5/4) for the next fueled run. I am experimenting with the fuel preparation now. The plan is to etch the Hunter AH50 Ni powder in 15% concentrated HCl (by mass, about 10°Baume') at 50°C in ultrasound. Then the powder will be rinsed (multiple times) in degassed H2O, drained, and frozen in an attempt to fracture the particles. Following that, the powder will be heated and vacuum dried. It will be mixed with 10% LiAlH4 as the fuel. The protocol will include heating to 1200°C and at some point reducing the pressure to see if Li boiling can be stimulated.

The data for the calibration and this experiment will go into this Google Drive folder."

UPDATE#1 - Experiment is LIVE! 

 
"The 15% HCl etchant was first heated to 50°C in a water bath in the ultrasonic tank. The photos show the use of a Kodak process control thermometer for measuring water temperature because the setpoint by the ultrasonic cleaner is highly inaccurate. After 1 hour coming to temperature, 7g of AH50 Ni powder was slowly added to the etchant and the ultrasound was turned on for 10 minutes (120W). At the end of this 10 minutes, the flask was removed and the etchant was leaf green. The flask was placed in a fixture having a magnet at the bottom of the flask to hold the Ni powder and the etchant was drained into a bucket of water (ALWAYS add acid to water - NEVER add water to acid!). 25ml of degassed water was added, the flask swirled, placed in fixture, and drained again - this was repeated twice. Next, 25ml of the degassed water was added and the flask was put back in the ultrasound bath for 2 minutes, and then drained as before - this was done 5 times. Finally, the flask was wiped dry, stoppered and placed in a ziplok bag and put in my freezer. Tomorrow I will dry the powder and hopefully be ready to load it into the reactor tube that is now performing a calibration."

"The experiment will last about 46 hours. I am going to try a program I created that will automatically copy the data files to the Google drive as they are ready. Hopefully, there will be a steady stream of data throughout the night. This run includes the features that we have discussed. It will have heating to 1200°C, drop-backs to 900°C with a short transition back to 1200°C, and at 1200°C there will be a pressure reduction to low pressure to see if I can make Li boiling occur. "

I'm amazed, I must say. Seldom do I come across a blog that's equally educative and interesting,
and without a doubt, you've hit the nail on the head. The issue What is an R&D advisor: Lifelinefinance.in/.../11280 something too few folks are speaking intelligently about.
I'm very happy that I found this during my hunt for something relating to this.

Is this the right way to do it? This is the right way to say that if the lamp lights up, there will be a shadow under it." As if spinning, Yoo Baek-dang looked at the two alternately, with his round face and eyes spreading roundly while fanning. Then he continued with a long sigh. "Oh, my. Now that I see it, these two are truly the deceased of the world.

The one who rushed with Gwangso was a young, or blue, young boy Danju, the son of the Hyeollang Hyeoknyeokgang River, who must be the son of the Hyeollang Hyeoknyeokgang River. The vice president of the Mahyeolbang glanced at Rinyoung. I'm afraid that I'll be hit by an enemy.

In this way, for a moment, you can even see my face. Sina forgot that it was cold and looked at him still. Actually, in my dream last night... I saw Ludat. Loudat is a dream, but he keeps saying "Affines". Sina smiled. "Anyway." The draft is coming up soon. There are only 7 days left until Hanukka Day... Right... Even the day I leave here with Princess Apinez...

It felt like a disaster that managed to prevent it from happening was just around the corner. I was wondering if Ditt had conveyed his words to Ludrat. And to Sherika. "Please, Loudrat..." Please contact me...!" SEON ASNAEL. Among the names that are so unfamiliar and inconsistent, Sina said painfully. You do everything properly.

Words such as foreign language ... all of them, horses.I couldn't understand.Why are you talking shop?Where are you going, but for people?Miserabl e and insecure.I feel all alone be on the wall.Be in places like this is why he felt, than any other place and time for a separation.From the floor cracks, feeling that happens ...Felt uneasy and does.The most bad feeling about it.

Absurd story feel, so he don't read 'Nao is well in testing novel, 101', 'knitting, thirty seven knit', mainly to passages such as, 'Napoleon's maxim', 'an interesting historical novel.', mainly practical, even if books (?).

'present only two all gibunieot' Cena is, but it's not easy to understand, such as that phrase emerged as a bundle of romance novel is a big reader.When I was young, but memories of hard when you read fairy tales, young stars unread person is no one and one or two books, it's a fairy tale, not memories.So, or gradually, for this kind of confidence.

In the novel 'I felt like I was walk on the pink cloud' is a phrase one day ever wonder very much about.I can't see any stretch, and say 'pink cloud' to association that it is only a sunset and dawn are very hopeful, come to think of it ever guess that been to describe their mood and I feel very emotional.In addition, 'The world looked light.',.

Also because of an ugly sissy like Anise. The world of the lake where he grew up was full of pretty things. Lakes waving in many colors. Fairies dancing there. But when he came here to Zion, he was shocked to find out that Anise was his fiancee. Gray drab hair color, eye color.

The thing is, his dear friend... Gadiel said bitterly. "Wesroad..." It was a very distant past. "Seon Goddess!! You tormented Seon Anise again!! You made a girl cry!! I can't believe it!!" The age of El is ten years old. Upon hearing the rebuke, Goddess was dissatisfied.

It used to be, and even more so now. At this moment, I am so vividly tired of this place. thoughts come to mind again. This position is the Throne, with heavy responsibility as the armrest and people's excessive expectations as the backrest. What lies on his footstool is the past, his fate, which he had no choice but to do. The one that hurts his heel the most

Gadiel was hanging his shoulders. It has been a hundred and six years since I stood in the place of El Yazion. I've been here too long So Tron's Spirit, Whipriel. The communion with him gradually disappears, and the power to summon him to his free will also weakens. Why does Idaji have to stand here for so long? this is always off

And I go to Face Healer and make him get regenerative surgery. That guy is too presumptuous. Who am I to say that I'm struggling after others? Then he lifted his navy eyes and looked up at the sky. It's only been about two weeks since I saw him, but I felt like I've been separated for quite a while. Over the past decade, I've been grinding them and digging herbs in spring.
