| We report the excess heat and metallurgical electrical behavior of type "B" (anode plate) Pd/D2O/Pt Phusor-type LENR devices, driven at their optimal operating point (OOP). They were examined for 4-terminal Pd conductivity, near-IR emission, and both calorimetric and heat flow measurements. The excess heat generated, based on the input power normalized delta-T data was ~175% [peak input power 1.99 watts, at the end 2.14 volts]. Using synchronous 4-terminal measurements, prior to and during excess heat, there is a supralinear rise of intrapalladial electrical resistance for applied voltages (to the solution) >78 volts. In addition, there are two temporal components to intrapalladial conductance that decreases to loading for these 6-terminal devices. The shorter time constant (<5 seconds) is unlikely to be due to deuteron loading. We discuss several possibilities, including possible electrodynamic ordering of the intrapalladial deuteron lattice. |
