A major error in my previous post. It should be ~4J/gK x 70K= ~300J/g whereas heat of vaporization is ~2200J/g so obviously the inlet cold water will not be able to provide 100% of the cooling to condense the steam but only about 10%. But perhaps the large bulk of water in the E-Cat could provide the rest of it. I fail to see the purpose of the inlet temp sensor. Perhaps there was a sensor more toward the middle of the E-cat that Rossi decided to eliminate because it showed less than 100C and would have raised flags amongst the critical public. ----- Original Message ----- From: Joe Catania To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Sent: Friday, July 22, 2011 8:43 AM Subject: Re: [Vo]:Uppsala University Denies Rossi Research Agreement
Yes its not measured but it follows that it must be higher due to the increased pressure. ----- Original Message ----- From: Damon Craig To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Sent: Friday, July 22, 2011 6:59 AM Subject: Re: [Vo]:Uppsala University Denies Rossi Research Agreement The steam temperature is not measure at the location of evolution but futher along in the device toward the exit. For those of us adhering to the Water Flow-though Hypothesis, the thermometer is further toward the water surface at the height of the outlet where the pressure is less than that where it originates.

But one thing is for sure: it would seem that the metal surface which gives rise to the steam is under some mass of water which will increase the pressure somewhat over ambient. This raises the steam formation temp so that the steam over the ambient steam formation temp.
