An identity on Energetic Forum as it was harvested, not an account on this site. Nobody here has claimed it, and nothing connects it to a person by name.

What do these transducers actually consist of?

Somewhere I discovered a loudspeaker "super top" which said it went up to that level. I'll try and find it.

The impression I get from Keely circles is that the frequency that works is very precise. One would need to adjust +/-a couple of places in the second decimal place position, using 42.79khz or thereabouts.
the one linked is a piezoelectric materiel inside an aluminum block

Any ideas on how to make an adjustable/tune-able transducer ?
physical resonance has to do with how much metal and the geometry
you can weld on more metal,
you can cut off metal
not sure how well bolting on metal with work. would have to try it.
that sort of transducer only works at resonance,
changing the frequency would just make it not work very well.
the driving board likely seeks resonance to drive the part at
so, if you want to change the frequency, you likely have to make mechanical changes to the ultrasonic transducer

edit:
also, without looking at any of the details on this one,
the 42.8Khz was likely just what his 40khz ultrasonic transducer happened to resonate at.
ok, got it.
so we need to look for heat.
I suppose the heat is what is we need to harvest for energy anyway.

edit:
checking isotope ratios needs something like a mass spectrometer,
and is quite hard to tell the ratios even if you have one.
I have a question
can't we verify this is a working idea by detecting the radiation from it ?
gamma-rays are not that hared to detect, right ?, to low energy to be detected with low cost detectors ?
or looking for the other fusion byproducts ? maybe test for helium after it ran for a while ? bright line spectrum testing is not that hard to set up.
so why is the focus on measuring the heat out ?
I am all for trying to replicate it.
and seems like there is enough information here to do it

measuring power in heat accurately is not the easiest thing to do.
from the PDF
Measures of thermal power were executed using an air-flow calorimetry while a calibration was made
using an internal Tungsten lamp.
they also did not say the error window they had in the measurements, or at least not that I noticed. How you build it is going to make a big difference in that possible error
I just wonder if there is not some easy way to get a more accurate measurement. or at least one where you know what your error window is
I have always thought that metal is a mostly solid plasma, after all, they each have the same shared electron sate.
I wonder if the distance between the structures of that alloy they say is the same as the hot plasma the reactions would otherwise normally happen in.
