As I understand it the temp Rossi claims to have measured are beyond the melting point of Ni and just barely under NiO which as Jones pointed out can't persist in a hydrogen atmosphere, Axil's spray coat of the reactors inner wall sounds similar to the sputtering applied to the inside of the MAHG tube used by Moller and Naudin and as such seems like a good candidate but I am hesitant to refer to this as an "accelerator in a can" since we obviously don't have the power to perform straight forward fusion. still some linear acceleration might enhance the penetration into Casimir geometry where equivalent acceleration becomes inversely proportional to the cube of the plate confinement. In axils model it remains unclear if the heat is generated in the lattice or the h1-h2 plasma boiling up toward the heating element suspended parallel to the surface of the inner wall. I don't have an issue with Axil's solution because it does address the melt down issue by immediate extraction and I seem to recall someone mentioning that the heating element could also be the temperature sensor so the heat could easily be higher away from the heat sink immersed in a soup of h1 and h2. Another solution that comes to mind would be a Black Light plasma lamp on steroids -instead of a sun burned observer the intensity of pressurized hydrogen inside a closed reactor with a PWM tungsten or chromium heating element amplified by Terry's triode concept could provide a plasma form of star in a jar where the powder is releasing copious amounts of fractional hydrogen ions that are rising up toward the heater element - In this model the powder remains cooler and the heat is generated Mill's style where hydrogen in the plasma can self catalyze and you can choose between my 2 body or Mills 3 body reaction to extract ZPE. I don't think the fractional values would get as high in a self catalyzing plasma but might be able to compensate where higher spatial velocity results in a more rapid change in energy density. The point is this method would also share the heat distribution nicely across the inner surface of the reactor wall and is similar to what we know about the powder and the reactor from the Rowan confirmations.
