Because that is not what I envision. I envision a SS reactor vessel enclosed within a copper sphere attached to a copper pipe. The reactor vessel is suspended inside the copper and the water passes outside the SS reactor. Water does not enter the reactor vessel but passes around it. Otherwise, how do you maintain the H2 pressure? T
