Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

definitely..

Why bother? You are a Curl-Risch "sycophant".. (whatever that is) :-)

Hi Peter, been a while..

Ok, here goes.

When the first half cycle is running, each junction type is consuming energy..The hot junction consumes energy in heat transport..and, the cold junction consumes energy in heat transport..

Both sides are consuming energy to do that heat thing that they do so well..(always loved that saying).

When the current reverses, both sides again consume energy to provide heat transport..it's just that the heat transport is in the opposite direction, so the heat (cold) neutralizes, leaving nad for cable heating or cooling.

The junctions do not cancel each other out...

""This implies that the junctions look like non-linear resistive components""peter

Agreed..

Also agree that prop delay and cable length have nothing to do with it.

""Perhaps what John is seeing is an artifact of the accuracy and predictability of the cable construction?""peter

Ummmm, Peter? That is exactly what I've been saying all along.If you recall, I asked JC about if he had correlated the materials with the test results....the response was ugly...

""It would be interesting to test multiple sample of the same cable....""peter

Yes, that would also be indicative of reproducibility of the manufacturer.

Cheers, John
