There isn't much mixing with that low a flow. Also cold water tends to sink
to the botton. Also steam tends to rise to the top. Also the temperature
should form a gradient from cold to hot. In short the water is not the same
temperature. But more importantly it won't be evenly heated. Steam is not
formed throughout the water volume but only at the hot metal surfaces.

I'm glad you pointed that out because the calculation you seem to be
alluding to is incorrect. Its not correct to assume the water would be
heated evenly- it would not.
In the chapter "Initial running to reach vaporization" they write that
they measured water temperature at inlet and at outlet.
So I assume the whole apparatus and the chimmney was filled up with water,
and there must be enoug turbulence to assume roughly even heat
distribution.
Especially when boiling starts it must create a lot of turbulency
If we assume a fraudulent mechanism inside that prevents water from free
convection, then of course your argument is correct, but if we assume
fraud, then we cannot say anything, because we cannot look inside.
I must say I did not redo the calculation myself, but because this was
made by two independent scientists I think it is correct if we assume
water convection and therefore even heat distribution.
