    An experimental investigation of possible anomalous heat

production in a special type of reactor tube named E-Cat HT is carried

out. The reactor tube is charged with a small amount of hydrogen

loaded nickel powder plus some additives. The reaction is primarily

initiated by heat from resistor coils inside the reactor tube.

Measurement of the produced heat was performed with high-resolution

thermal imaging cameras, recording data every second from the hot

reactor tube. The measurements of electrical power input were

performed with a large bandwidth three-phase power analyzer. Data were

collected in two experimental runs lasting 96 and 116 hours,

respectively. An anomalous heat production was indicated in both

experiments. The 116-hour experiment also included a calibration of

the experimental set-up without the active charge present in the E-Cat

HT. In this case, no extra heat was generated beyond the expected heat

from the electric input. Computed volumetric and gravimetric energy

densities were found to be far above those of any known chemical

source. Even by the most conservative assumptions as to the errors in

the measurements, the result is still one order of magnitude greater

than conventional energy sources.
