An excellent video. The best yet. The sound quality is good.
Unfortunately it cuts off after 18 minutes.
You have to hand it to Krivit: he knows how to use a video camera to
good effect. That's harder than it seems. If it were me behind the
camera, you would only see the person from the neck down, or the
lighting would be wrong, or the voice inaudible.
In this steam test, Rossi weighed the reservoir to determine the total
mass of water consumed. He weighed it before and after the test rather
than leaving it on the scale, the way they did in the Jan. 14 test. When
you leave it on the scale, you can record the weight periodically to be
sure the flow rate remains constant. However, as pointed out here today,
those pumps are reliable and do not vary, so this is not a big issue.
E&K do not mention whether they did this during the tests they observed.
I think Rossi usually does. It is the kind of common sense technique he
prefers. He is kind of slapdash at times, and he prefers rough estimates
to exact numbers, but he knows what he is doing.
I don't see a steam quality meter in this latest video, but I really,
really think that issue should be put to bed. There was never any reason
to doubt the steam is mostly dry, what with the second test. The
brochures from Testo and Delta Ohm close the book on that dispute.
Maybe I should update the LENR-CANR.org news item to point that out. I
should make it explicit, since this "wet/dry" steam controversy has
dragged on. I am sure the reason I linked to the brochure in the first
place was to address this. I would have noticed if the brochure said it
was not suitable! It said "enthalpy" and I thought "bingo, that settles
it," and honestly, it slipped my mind after that.
