Well, he says they weigh the reservoir before and after. Other people who have observed the tests told me they weighed it. If the video was long enough we would see them do that. So I do not think you need to worry about the flow rate being incorrect. - Jed But then tell us please, why

I agree the gas flow out the end of the black hose seems to be visible right at the end -- whereas steam would be invisible for a short distance. Trained as a dishwasher since age 10, 80 miles E of Houston, Texas, I am sure that hot water gives off mist in low altitude, warm, humid climates.

Ho! I had forgotten about this one -- one of the early issues raised was that 14 kW of steam coming out the end of a hose should be a little like a rocket engine, and it would have been nice if some witness had mentioned that. Trouble was, there was no video, and witnesses didn't comment on

In the Essen paper, they were apparently able to examine steam coming out of an open valve in the top of the chimney, a separate exit from the hose. That would be why they were able to say that it was dry steam, it's easy to tell if you can see it. More accurately, if you can't see it until
