Part 5/6:
After reaching points between 800 and 900 watts, the team reflected on their findings, likening them to previous established experiments. They used the calibration data to validate their methods and to further investigate potential variables affecting their results, including possible issues related to the sealing of the fuel tube.
Participants highlighted considerations about the sealing materials used in the reactor’s construction. The team agreed on the necessity to explore and validate the adhesive methods used and suggested testing alternative sealing techniques to prevent loss of hydrogen or other valuable gasses during experimentation.
