Good calorimetry is difficult, but comparisons are not. Wouldn't it be sufficient to demonstrate two parallel implementations, one with an unprocessed CONSTANTAN wire and no H2, one with a processed wire and H2, and measure the difference using the same approach?
Why do I even have to pose this question? Questions like this are what cause the rest of the world to doubt the whole discipline. How hard is this? What am I missing? Help me out here.
