A major error in my previous post. It should be ~4J/gK x 70K= ~300J/g whereas
heat of vaporization is ~2200J/g so obviously the inlet cold water will not be
able to provide 100% of the cooling to condense the steam but only about 10%.
But perhaps the large bulk of water in the E-Cat could provide the rest of it.
I fail to see the purpose of the inlet temp sensor. Perhaps there was a sensor
more toward the middle of the E-cat that Rossi decided to eliminate because it
showed less than 100C and would have raised flags amongst the critical public.

Yes its not measured but it follows that it must be higher due to the
increased pressure.

The steam temperature is not measure at the location of evolution but
futher along in the device toward the exit.
For those of us adhering to the Water Flow-though Hypothesis, the
thermometer is further toward the water surface at the height of the outlet
where the pressure is less than that where it originates.

I think the topology of the E-Cat would reveal alot about its
characteristics as a boiler. But one thing is for sure: it would seem that the
metal surface which gives rise to the steam is under some mass of water which
will increase the pressure somewhat over ambient. This raises the steam
formation temp so that the steam over the ambient steam formation temp.
