The total reactor (the ecat) clearly participates in the heating of the fluid, so the comparison of the overall power density is relevant. The much lower (claimed) overall power density coincides with the first demonstration that was not supposed to rely on making steam for the power calculation. It also coincides with what Rossi calls self-sustaining. That's suspicious.
If I understand you, you've just said that the fact that the power density in the most recent test coincided with the power density in the "self-sustaining" mode is suspicious. Why do you say that? Or is that what you meant at all? (I'm having trouble with the antecedent to "That".)
I understand the issue regarding steam (and "suspicious" isn't the word I'd use) but I don't see the connection between the self-sustaining mode and the 28 Oct overall power density.
