Jed, "Correction: With a counterflow heat exchanger, the cold fluid

What cold fluid are you talking about? I thought we were told the
return temperature to the 1 MW plant varied but was typically ~60C.
Because it varied it made the precise heat flow difficult to calculate
and Rossi told the ERV to ignore it entirely to be on the conservative
side.

Returning it was at 60 deg C. That is what Rossi told Lewan. The
reservoir remained level so it was the same water looping around.
So if there was any process heat in the next room, it came from a
heat exchanger and it had to be cooler than 60 deg C.

an average temperature somewhere between 104 and 60 deg C.
