The device was working great. The 50cc units are officially rated at 2.5 kilowatts. He was probably trying to keep them at their official rating for the test.
I think it is much harder to keep the power output at the official rating than it is to let the power output spike and go into self sustain mode. ________________________________ From: Jed Rothwell <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, May 4, 2011 4:08:58 PM Subject: Re: [Vo]:Rossi interviewed on Radio24 [ITA] Jones Beene wrote: > Jed asks you not to rub it in - the fact that Rossi's current goal is a lot > closer to my estimated COP of 10, than it is to his prediction -- anywhere > from 35 to infinity ... You are not rubbing it in because I miss your point. What do you mean "current goal"? Are you referring to the size or power of the devices? Presently 4 kW. He keeps scaling them down. He says that is safer. At 4 kW he needs 250 for 1 MW, but he is adding 50 more to act as on-line replacement (backup) units. > It's all about the wet steam.... Perhaps you are attempting to rub in your assertion that the input to output ratio is much lower than Rossi claims. He hasn't said that, or admitted it. In the Lewan tests it was very low but the gadget did not seem to be working well that day. In other recent tests it has been as high as ever. Assuming the calorimetry right (which you do not assume -- realize) there is no indication the input to output ratio is degrading. It just varies all over the place. - Jed
