Hello Mitch2
Here are a few new things on heat conversion that you might find interesting.
We worked for a couple of years with springs and many absorbent materials. Springs were effective at first until we listened to a six-month-old application and replaced them with new springs.
Spring fatigue set in on the original set of eight. We realized that losing a minimalist amount of tension produced a higher loss of dynamics when using the application for sound reproduction.
I recommend checking the old with a new set annually. As spring fatigue sets in, ears might not pick up on the losses over time. The musical presentation also suffers. Without an A to B comparison, you might think it is time for a new amp, different wires, or speakers simply because a design fails slowly over time.
We then realized there were weight handling and tension issues with every application. This model would not serve our needs as we searched for a universal way to manage vibrations without premature failure and would compensate for any amount of weight without the cost of constant mixing and matching parts.
Converting energy to heat is again the most popular methodology for dubbed decoupling or isolation devices. It is hard to prove what percentages of resonance convert to heat when absorption or damping is applied.
An accredited Russian Scientist has discovered a new physical paradox
“Saint-Petersburg Polytechnic University recently published documents supporting that heat generated from resonance conversion became airborne and then again was attracted back into the chassis in the form of vibration titled Ballistic Resonance hence re-establishing the problem of resonance build-up in a constant repetitive state.”
Ballistic Resonance shows that heat energy from phase cancellations and absorbent materials is born again. Once airborne, heat returns to the original device of mass that created it. Therefore heat dissipation is a returning process of vibrational energy affixed to the parent mass and eventually seeks and locates the ground plane via resonance transfer. Heat is a recurring problem at best.
Another discovery: Researchers uncover a new way heat travels between molecules
by Ali Sundermier, the University of Pennsylvania, released their findings, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, showing that heat transfer occurs when the electron moves between two molecules that are at different temperatures. Electron transfer is possibly the most important process in chemistry, according to Nitzan."Half of the chemistry is electron transfer processes," he said. "It has been investigated for 100 years on the molecular scale."
Our research displayed a sluggishness in sonic when working with less efficient or so-called isolation and decoupling products. In audiophile terms, we lost the leading edge dynamic and shortened the decay of the sound. When used with tubed or solid-state amplifiers, the component’s operational temperature climbed to create more heat.
Heat establishes excessive inefficiencies in operation.
The noise in electricity is the initial problem forming resonance. Rapidly grounding electronics and loudspeakers came next. Finally, the sound room was built and is unlike anything you have ever experienced took us thirty years of product development.
We are a live music-listening organization. A goal of mine is to produce the dynamics, harmonic structures, and decays associated with the live performance. Mechanical grounding allowed us to achieve the closest I have come to capturing the live event.
We travel to hear sound rooms and playback environments. If you are such a traveler or want to listen to a sound room you can build, the Energy Room is open for auditions.
