This particular test run ran for an hour. After 30 minutes, all of the water was vaporized and it came out as dry steam. "Dry steam" means there were no droplets of unboiled water in the steam, so we can be sure we know the enthalpy. I am still waiting for the final review my 400-word report. My contact promised to call me and discuss it by 1:00 p.m. EST. Sorry for the delay. - Jed
