Hi Jed, This is probably a naive question on my part, so I apologize for that. But in the interest of clarity I wonder if the definition of "excess heat" and "heat balance" is the same for all parties. I strongly expect it is of course.
It seems from what you said that the technicians measured heat from the device but apparently observed no excess heat due to LENR? Is the heat balance the continuous heat provided by the plant regardless of input? External power or LENR? I.e balance over time? Or, Is the heat balance the ratio between the thermal heat expected from the electricity supplied alone and the thermal heat supplied from the plant? (I assume it is this one) Was 1MW heat power ever provided from external power alone? before or during the test run, or was it run at a lower power level due to supply or engineering constraints? If so was 1MW thermal heat output from the plant? Regardless of the energy source? Or did the thermal heat decrease in line and in proportion with any decrease in mains power? Was the external power reduced significantly during the run? If the decrease in input power was /6 or /50 say, Was the equivalent decrease in out put thermal power seen? Or was there no decrease input power? I'm sorry this is just for clarification to be sure (even tough I guess it's fairly obvious), that we have common understanding about what we mean by "excess heat" and "power balance".
