Harry, I can see where you would think that based on the active side being lower than null to start and later higher. However, there was already the differential with the active side reading lower than the null side even during the calibration. Also, chemistry effects in these types of experiments are fairly clear when they happen and usually don't last more than 30 mins (certainly less than 1 hour). I base that on numerous experiments I have conducted, and the chemistry effects are seen at the temperatures where you expect them to occur.
Were I to imagine a scenario where the excess heat was not real in this case, it would go like the following: at lower temperature, the heating coil has more space between the windings; at higher temperature, it pulls together beneath the TC producing a higher temp at that spot. Then it relaxes when it cools off. Of course that is imaginary, but a plausible alternative. That is why it would be good to do at least conduction calorimetry.
