Normally, the system transfers ~80% of input power into the water that circulates through it. (That is, the COP is 80% -- and for once this is the correct term.) The rest comes out of the electric motor and the "pump" itself. Both machines are far too hot to touch. You would be severely burned by them.
In the tests described in this report, the first test produced a COP of 75%, which is exactly what you expect from a system producing no anomalous heat. The second test produced 100%. Since the electric motor and the pump were too hot to touch, and radiating kilowatts of heat into the room, that was roughly 30% excess heat. They would have to be stone cold to transfer 100% to the water, which is absurd and obviously impossible. Later tests with improved calorimetry that I observed produced COPs ranging from 80% (no heat) up to 115 to 120%. The latter is 40% excess heat, which is not tiny at all. Customer site tests also yielded similar results. An error seems unlikely to me. It is an interesting video, and I think the company is still in business. > Yes, but they never talk about the excess heat. http://hydrodynamics.com/ - Jed
