E-cats Have No Hair
Here is my challenge to the rest of you. I will be looking for evidence myself:- * * *What evidence exists that water does not rise in the chimney and weep or splatter into the exit tube?* So far we seem to only have the assurance of our intrepid Phd's operating outside of the domain of their expertise. This obtained: 1) Misapplication of a humidity probe which returned meaningless results. "Not even wrong", in the words of Wolfgang Pauli. 2) Invalid interpretation of a thermometer reading. The simple explanation is that liquid water simply overflows out the exit. Interpreting the thermometer reading of 100.1 C as an indication that the chimney contained water in the gaseous phase, no matter how wet, is an error. It takes only a one foot head of water to raise the boiling point of water to 101 C. As well, 0.1 C is less than half the error I have seen in specifications for commercial probes in ideal conditions. Water at 100 C does not boil and magically get 0.1 degree hotter as steam. What were they thinking? I have no idea. But we did get treated to Phd's experimenting and reporting outside their domain of experience. If I am mistaken and one of them is experienced at Calorimetry---well, that person might have some explaining to do.
