ALL LONGS - THIS IS A MUST READ. THE ADDRESSABLE MARKET FOR THE AOT HAS EFFECTIVELY DOUBLED based on Tao's recent findings from the AOT test on the Keystone Pipeline. The author of this review of Tao's 7 page paper that will be presented tomorrow to The American Physical Society is a scientist and an expert in his field.

REVIEW OF PAPER AND
COMMERCIAL IMPLICATIONS

Below is a summary of the key new ef
fect identified in the paper.

For a certain reduction in viscosity,

Under laminar flow, the power required reduces in
direct proportionto viscosity.

Under turbulent flow the power required DOES NOT reduce in direct proportion to viscosity.

It is more like 1:2

Reference

Tao Page 1

“For example, to increase the flow rate by 30% we only need to increase the pressure by 30% for laminar flow, but for a turbulence flow we need to increase the pressure by 58.3%;”

Therefore if AOT only reduced viscosity if would be BEST for upstream laminar pipelines and LESS attractive for midstream turbulent flow.

However what is shown in the paper is that AOT not only reduces viscosity but also suppresses turbulent flow, making it laminar and more efficient for a given flow rate.

I’s much more than just being about the percentage benefits.

The change massively expands the potential market of AOT within
the midstream market (to a much larger scale than has been appreciated previously).
