I have to question that order, esp the heater abutting the lead. Also I'm
not entirely convinced there isn't electrical conduction through the water.

Subject: [Vo]:Structure of Rossi device
This post is just to check my understanding of the supposed structure of
the Rossi device.
As I understand it, the device elements, in cross section of the reactor
portion, are annular in nature, radially symmetric, except for the band
heaters which roughly approximate radial symmetry. The following layers
comprise the cross section, from innermost to outermost:
1. Reactor material with hydrogen
2. Steel reactor container
3. Water
4. Copper outer jacket
5. Band heater resistors driven by 220 V
6. A lead shield
7. Insulation
An exception to the above is there is a resistance heater located in or
around the steel reactor container? There are temperature sensors in the
device which allow the controller to individually apply current to the
resistance heating elements.
Best regards,
