Robin, I don't understand- excuse where is the pressure of hydrogen measured? It is adsorbed absorbed in the nanometric nickel, the temperature increases there up to say 400 C- I don't think the reactor has a manometer on it. Peter On Thu, Feb 24, 2011 at 10:39 PM, Horace Heffner wrote: > > On Fe

More notes I do not know if they used a pump, or simply let the water flow from the tap. I have used both methods at various times, and so has Dennis Cravens, although not for such a large flow rate. They said they checked the flow rate "several times" which I assume means it was measured manually

A source close to the recent 18-hour test of the Rossi device gave me the following figures. These are approximations. Flow rate: 3,000 L/h = 833 ml/s. Input temperature: 15°C Output temperature ~20°C Input power from control electronics: variable, average 80 W, closer to 20 W for 6 hours Note
