Calibration and Testing of the Challan E Wire Reactor
The recent developments in the reactor experimentation involving the Challan e wire have paved the way for key calibration processes and operational testing. The focus has been on understanding the wire's ability to generate excess heat beyond what simple electrical power would typically produce.
Understanding the Setup
The Challan e wire, integral to the reactor, is equipped with a runner for testing operations in a helium environment. The calibration process begins by progressively increasing the power to the wire, conducted in sixteen incremental steps across the full range of the power supply. At each level of power input, the team allows for a 45-minute waiting period to ensure that the temperatures stabilize before sampling.
