Hello group,
This got just posted on Daniele Passerini's blog: http://goo.gl/v2uqo

It looks like Brian Josephson will test an e-Cat module quite soon. He
announced this on the CMNS list:
On October 6 we will have the opportunity to make a long (more then
12 hours) test of one of the modules of the Rossi 1 MW generator. The
module will be opened to us and we will have the opportunity to
verify volumes and weights of the internal components.
Heat measurements will be done condensing all the steam produced in
heat exchanger and a secondary circuit where no water will be vaporized.
This is NOT an official test of the University of Bologna because the
contract is not active yet.

Andrea Rossi, who gave permission to Passerini to post the
announcement on his blog, added this as a clarification:
The measurement of energy will not therefore be made on the steam, to
avoid all the issues concerning the quality of the steam, but the
measurements of energy will be made on the delta T of the water of
the secondary circuit heated by the steam! This way, the amount of
energy produced will be calculated in an undisputable way. The steam
runs in a primary circuit, which is a closed loop, where the steam
is condensed after exchanging heat with the water of the secondary
circuit, which will never evaporate. Therefore, the energy is
calculated on the base of the delta T of the heated water and its
flow rate, indipendently from the temperature of the steam, that does
not enter in the energy calculation parameters.
I propose, they should monitor and measure both, the primary and the
secondary circuit.
This way they get two results for energy: The steam result and the water
result and can compare them.
This produces double evidency and gives information about the
measurements accuracys.
It would also be nice if they can calibrate the secondary circuit, using
a known electrical source.
If they have the ecat for 12 hours only then they can do this step after
the 12 hour test.
I hope, they have the time, money and manpower to do this.
Best,
Peter
