Dear Eric, I was not present at the Defkalion test, but at GSVIT we are four people [?] Gamberale was present, of course. He did repeat later the measurement (after a few weeks), alone.
In the Lugano report they perform a dummy measurement: it is enough to calculate the resistances in the load. In the run test, they provide the power dissipated in the wires before the load; this is the hidden wattmeter, since inverting the power values you can get the rms currents in the load. These currents are in the range 40-50 A rms, as it is written in some part of the report. With these currents the power dissipation is three times the power measured by the authors. It's linear and clear... I wrote it to Hoistad and just after Rossi was very aggressive against me, inviting me to read Electricity for dummies, saying that his resistance drops by a factor of three passing from 450°C to 1200°C and then stays constant up to 1450°C Of course of this VERY special inconel wire there is no trace in the TPR2. I think it is really VERY VERY VERY unprobable to get such a resistor respecting all the other constraints. That's all. 2015-01-10 20:42 GMT+01:00 Eric Walker <eric.wal...@gmail.com>: > On Sat, Jan 10, 2015 at 7:25 AM, Gigi DiMarco <gdmgdms...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > Two of us measured and discovered the Defkalion trick in the water flow >> measurement (or do you think it was really Gamberale?); if you like I can >> send you the proofs privately. >> > > Hi Giancarlo, > > Thank you for the careful analysis of Tadahiko Mizuno's and > Jed's calorimetry (I am not in a position to weigh your claims and Jed's > responses and take no position).
