Jones,
Although I could believe that a tiny amount of magneotcaloric effect
is taking place in the Newman/Bedini/etc etc devices, I claim it would
be undetectable certainly by any such method as Jean-Louis is using.
Magnetic cooling of the type I presume you are describing requires a
cyclic heat source & sink. Where is this is the Newman machine? If you
believe http://www.physlink.com/Education/AskExperts/ae488.cfm for
example, assuming you get a 1C change per Tesla in copper wire (where
JNL measured the temp) JNL would need about 2Kgauss for his measured
temperature change. I doubt that this is the flux dens. at the outer
surface of his coil. Most magnetocaloric experiments are performed with
time constants (between sucessive orient/disorient cycles) far lower
than the frequencies at which the flux is changing the the Newman coil.

George,
Yes. I absolutely believe that Naudin measured an
actual and accurate (tiny) heat loss, and in a
situation where there should have been a rather strong
heating effect ... Is this remarkable?
No! not really, and it does not verify the Newman
motor as being an anomaly either, or cohering ZPE.
BTW This kind of measurement is not rocket science,
and would not benefit in the least from expensive and
careful calorimetry, which would only affirm the
situation. It is real, explainable, and there is a
definite small repeatable heat loss.
The problem is in the interpretation.
Consequently, I do not believe it is evidence of
anything anomalous, beyond the well-known
magnetocaloric effect, which itself is not gainful:

But that is not how you phrased you previous comment,
George ;-)
I assume that what you meant to say is that you have
seen no evidence of an anomalous heat loss which was
in excess of the well-know magnetocaloric effect..."
... not that I am one to quibble over minutiae, but
Steven Lawrence hasn't posted in a while and we
someone to take up the slack ...

Jones,
If this is considered proper calorimetry, we're
in serious trouble.
I would suggest checking out
http://fluidproperties.nist.gov/cvht.html
for a NIST fluid calorimeter or even
http://earthtech.org/capabilities/dual/ for example
calorimeters in
which one could have a high degree of confidence.
Would you recommend
making an investment based on Jean-Louis' heat
measurements?
