When I say precise method I mean the inclusion of the specific data to be obtained, where it is obtained, and the formulas applied. You wrote: Indeed, continuous experiments easiest way is to use enthalpy sensors, that gives as total enthalpy for any given moment. Even more simple is to

The simplest solution is to use a *Steam Water mixing* *valve*,in which the heated mixture coming out from the demo is mixed with a constant flow of cold water, you can know the enthalpy performance in any moment. Peter On Tue, Sep 27, 2011 at 7:41 PM, Horace Heffner hheff...@mtaonline.netwrote:

First I would add to my previous message, that I think that Peter's method is more accurate than measuring pressure. That is because in order to find out correlation between pressure and enthalpy we need to do very careful calibration. In short run high accuracy may be difficult to archieve, but

Dear Horace, The missing variable is cooling water flow- to be established by Rossi- water that carries the excess heat generated by the 52 (?) Fat Cats and is partially transformed in steam- F1. The flow of mixing water- condensing the steam is say, 5-10 times greater than F1 see please the

We have to measure HEAT OUT (enthalpy) and this is the unique relevant variable, steam, water, pressure, dryness, even F1 (this HAS to be measured anyway) are not relevant. When I speak about steam water mixing it is because I have used the method many times many years ago. But I bet that Rossi
