Dave-- I would agree with that assessment.
All Rossi had to do in the contract was to produce 100 C steam or hotter. Some insulation and a slight pressure above atmospheric would achieve that. Assuming the control system did not take to much power and the system was self sustaining with no extra input energy other than that needed for control, the COP could go up significantly. The controlling parameter may be the pressure inside the reactor as has been suggested in several Ni-H reactors that produced excess power as being important, since it effects the volatility of fuel. Such a control scheme would take little power.

This is a basic effect that should be obvious to anyone that realizes that the more heat energy that you trap within the system, the hotter it must become. What am I missing that limits the COP to a low level? Could you please shed light upon this issue?

I would love to see a solid report. I still have no alternative explanation for some of the early results I saw in my own experiments, but the lack of reproducibility makes me suspect that I missed some unknown error. I just have trouble believing that Rossi would send a lawsuit to IH rather than even one of his old supposedly working 10KW units if he had anything that worked reliably! I think 100M dollars is worth a week in NC demonstrating to anyone at IH how to make it work. Jack, Good post and let me fill in a few of the gaps, since the devil is in the details and the scam becomes crystal clear when all the details are all presented together. First - There is no doubt in my mind that Rossi can show anomalous thermal gain. It has been done with Ni-H for 25 years, starting with Piantelli and Thermacore. Second – This disagreement is not just about showing an energy anomaly – and making it run reliably. To get the 100 million, according to the contract, Rossi has to demonstrate an astounding COP of 6. That has never been done reliably and would be the breakthrough, if true. All of us who have been around this field are convinced, that with a properly done experiment COP of about 1.5 is doable – even old had. Thermacore, one the top companies in thermal engineering - ran multiple reactors for over a year at COP 1.5 average in the nineties - and their proof was overwhelming… but despite all efforts, they could not make the gain go higher than 1.5 and fossil fuel was cheap then. Rossi can do the normal Ni-H version, we must assume, and get COP 1.5. If he is good, he may have pushed the gain to COP ~2-3. That would be admittedly a valuable advance, but falls short of the big bucks in the contract. The reason that Rossi and his stooges are dishonest here, and have resorted to using the air-for-steam cheat which Goat-Guy discovered - is that AR has to make the gain seem much higher than it is to get the big bucks. He cannot do that without cheating – apparently, or otherwise there is no reason not to demonstrate this to real third party expert. When IH’s pleadings arrive, and it will probably take a few weeks perhaps – this is most likely what they will say. They may even ask that the court appoint an expert to do independent testing – and this should please everyone … except a cheater.
