To be sincere, it is not essential if it was a peristaltic pump or a positive displacement pump as you can see here: http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/positive-displacement-pumps-d_414.html By the way positive displacement is a generic concept peristaltic is a sub-category of it. Fiat voluntas tua! I am contented with the pump it made its job constantly sending some 13.5 liters of cold water per hour through the generator in a ~ pulsating style
I am interested more in the nexte two demonstrations this year- Randy Mills\ CIHT technology and the Rossi Defkalion 1 MW generator. On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 9:44 PM, Stephen A.
