How can we make sure that 1MW e-cat is true during a presentation? It is certainly not hard to emulate the e-cat performance at home with 600W, 1KW or maybe a laboratory with a 5KW source to heat water. But for a fake e-cat, it would be required 140KW to 1MW to emulate the big e-cat.
Regarding the input power of the 1MW power plant, today Rossi added this: http://www.journal-of-nuclear-physics.com/?p=501&cpage=3#comment-54536
Dear Marcia: The maths of your question are quite messy, so let me make it simple: in the worst case, we consume 170 kW to produce 1 MW. In the best case we consume nothing to make 1 MW. The average is 85 kW to produce 1 MW. Warm regards, A.R.
Perhaps the best way to make sure that the 1MW plant is true would be to measure the output energy while the input is zero. 1 MW of heat in such conditions would be quite hard to fake (the test would have to run long enough, ie more than a few seconds - possibly minutes - without a noticeable drop in output heat. Of course one would have to pay attention to possible external sources of power or heat).
Cheers, S.A.
