That's the flow of the condensate water, and it is not constant.
Okay, that is what Heffner and I suggested.
The energy produced has been measured on the secondary circuit, so I
didn't take a record of the primary flow rate.
I wish he would record _everything_. Sigh.
In any case, the flow rate of the pump of the primary circuit is
regulated at 15 l/h.
4.2 ml/s. That sounds plausible.
Rossi sometimes gets numbers wrong -- as do I. But he usually tells the
truth about things like this. He has no reason to lie in this case.
Since it took about two hours for the reaction to start I guess this
means tank is 30 L, as discussed here.
It occurs to me that at 18:54, when Lewan measured 0.9 g/s of
condensate, that would indicate 2 kW, but that is assuming it was all
vaporized. If there were "slugs" of water coming out at that time, then
there is no telling how much enthalpy the 0.9 g represents. I guess I
was a little too quick to celebrate this apparent correlation.
