To me this statement made by Professor Levi about the 18 hour test he
and Rossi did is scary:

“/*Minimum power was 15 kilowatts, and that’s a conservative value. I
calculated it several times. At night we did a measurement and the
device then worked very stable and produced 20 kilowatts.”*/
/*“Now that I have seen the device work for so many hours, in my view
all chemical energy sources are excluded,” said Giuseppe Levi.*/
/**He explained that this time* he chose to heat the water without
boiling it, to avoid errors.*/
/**/
/*Initially, the temperature of the inflowing water was seven degrees
Celsius and for a while the outlet temperature was 40 degrees Celsius.
A flow rate of about one liter per second, equates to a peak power of
130 kilowatts. The power output was later stabilized at 15 to 20
kilowatts.*/"
130 kWs of heat coming from something the size of a small door knob is
really scary. No chemical source that I know of could have done that.
Had I been there, I would have started to very quickly move well away.
I sure Levi and Rossi needed to freshen up their Bonds briefs after
that event, even if the COP was in the 100's.
I think the actual energy was lower.
It is not possible to transfer an energy of 120 kW via a small surface
into the water without producing steam bubbles.
It is for example possible to hold a glowing peace of iron under water
and it keeps glowing. This, because a thin layer of steam covers the
iron and isolates the heat from the water. Blacksmiths do this.
I know this from my 10 kW gas boiler. This is a tube boiler. we had
several times repair work done at the domestical water pipes. This
caused air bubbles in the water. As soon as these air bubbles enter the
boiler, small audible steam explosions happen in the boiler and it spits
out steam, air and hot water.
Essentially this means the backpressure goes up, the water flow is
reduced and the water temperature rises.
