I bet Rossi was trying to keep the reaction perfectly stable throughout the experiment. He could have detected an increase in temperature and wanted to throttle down the input slightly.

Lewan checked the current once at the beginning. (by the way: clamp meter are usually not very precise. But: assume good faith, he checked that instrument later). Did he made a recording of the current/power over the whole time? Was the current constant? Lewan says yes. Did he check periodically the current? We don't know.

Using two different methods, we are coming to the same result. Thats good. We are able to calculate the flow rate knowing: a.) the pump b.) stroke frequency c.) stroke volume Assuming a volume of 2 ml (in favor to the inventor, since it is the maximum value), we can calculate the flow rate by multiplying frequency and volume. Here we have (it's easy to hear in the video, listen to the regular "tok..tok" noise) 31 strokes/minute. Lewan tells us: 63.3 ml/min. This confirms, the the stroke volume was 2 ml. Now, we know also, that the maximal flow rate of this pump is 12.1 l/hr. How is it reached? 12.1/h divided by 60 is 202 ml/min. That is the value at 2 ml volume and 100 strokes/min. The maximum, right? What do we get at 31 strokes? It is 0.31 multiplyed with 202. Check: ist is 62. OK. Now, lets check it with the pumps "tok tok" noise of 14 of january: we clearly hear 60 beats/min. And that is 60 x 2 = 120 ml/min. BUT: in the report we find the value 292 ml/min (=17.5 l/hr). Or Lewan made a mistake AND the data sheet of the pump is wrong, OR the author of the report made a mistake. A big mistake in favor of the claimed principle. A 243 % mistake ! Or, in other words, the claimed power was much lower. Instead of 12.4 kW we have only 4.9 kW. (how we explain that is another issue) I have the impressio! n, that someone is OR cheating (don't forget: its also a big business) or someone is incompetent. -- NEU: FreePhone - kostenlos mobil telefonieren und surfen!
