James Bowery October 29th, 2011 at 11:40 AM What was the pressure at the output thermocouple? Why the electric power generator (genset) has not been turned off during the self sustained mode?
Andrea Rossi October 29th, 2011 at 11:46 AM Dear James Bowery: max 20 mm in water column was the pressure at the output of the thermocouple. The genset has been not turned off because we had to give energy to all the auxiliary motors: water pumps and electric fans of the heat dissipators. Of course the energy consumed from these utilities has not to be put in the energy balance of the reactors, because in an industrial application the energy is not dissipated, is utilized, and the pumps to move the water are necessary in this particular kind of test. In any case, all this is described in the draft report on http://db.tt/wu4OLbgk Warm Regards, A.R. - - - - - - Either he's lying, or 104 C steam was superheated -- and 100% Dry. Probably a few of the eCats were under-powered, so their input water overflowed --- giving the liquid water that was collected at the outlet.
