Abstract

Results of the analysis of the isotopic and elemental composition of the fuel before and after work in the Rossi heat generator, as well as in similar reactors. As a result of Rossi reactor operation (excess heat 5800 MJ generation) a dramatic change both the elemental and isotopic composition of the fuel was happened. In the fuel of reactor AP2 (150 MJ of excess heat) there was a significant increase in the content of Cr, K, Si, Na, Mg, Ca, Ti, V and decrease the content of Ni, Mn, Cl, Zn, Cu, Al.; small increase of the ratio 6Li / 7Li was detected. In the fuel of Chinese reactor (>13 MJ of excess heat) a slight decrease of 6Li content. was detected. On the GS3 reactor (17 MJ of excess heat) isotope changes in Nickel and lithium were not detected.
