Well another thing that brings to mind is that the reactor vessel could be emitting electrons (Edison effect) which perform electrolysis on the coolant. That could perhaps get extra heat into the water to boost convective or radiative transfer.
I don't know understand why there seems to be such resistance to the gain in this device being "only" in the range of COP 3-6 ? It's almost as if the LENR community has waited so long for robust OU at the kilowatt level, that anything less than COP > 30 is not sufficient.
