The pump is rated at 12L/h, and at the end of the run the rate is doubled, according to Lewan. So it was at most 6 L/h, not 16 as you claim. But Lewan actually measured the output rate to be about 3.5 L/h, and we have no evidence that the input rate was any higher than that. > > This will make it cool to room temperature in ~40 min., the way the > original did. > > I don't understand where you get this. At 19:08, the hydrogen pressure was eliminated, and the input flow increased, and then it cooled from 117C to 105C by 19:52 (44 minutes later). That's 12 degrees in 44 minutes. Not 100C in 40 minutes. You seem to be making stuff up. > Obviously there was *some* water going out, because otherwise the heat > exchanger would not have gotten hot. Nothing would have reached it.

Why would he lie?
