Rob, it would be an easier task if Rossi were able to restrict the environment within which his device operates. If he were to pursue this too far, then the applications for which his ECAT can operate are quickly reduced.
Now is the time for him to optimize the control system and he appears to be doing just that. The challenges he faces are difficult.

Ok, suppose that it is extremely difficult (I don't want to say impossible, as nothing is impossible) to enhance the thermal contact between the source of energy and the sink, wouldn't it be wise then to put the whole system in a temperature controlled box (let's call it a refrigerator) with a constant temperature to obtain a stable environment for the E-cat? To bring up another analogy it is my understanding that when you have a steam engine and you are turning at several handles and wheels at the same time it is extremely difficult to get the system stable with an optimum output. It sounds to me that Andrea is having a similar problem with the E-cat, he should try to "freeze" the environment of the E-cat as much as possible and then work on ONE control to gain better COP. Kind regards, Rob
