As metal content of the E-Cat is at the same temperature as water

This is an assumption with no (apparent) foundation. All 80 kg of E-
at will not be at the water temperature. If the new E-cat is heated
by a band heater, then the outside metal blanket will be *much*
hotter than the water. We need to know the structure of the new E-cat.
it does not matter where the probe is installed.
It matters where the probe is installed. It might not even be in the
steam or water.
Here is a poser. If the temperature probe is in the steam/water, why
is it that when the internal pressure is a couple atmospheres that
there is no leakage around the probe. I recall seeing in a video the
probe being easily removed from one of the early E-cat demo machines.
Even if they
do not exactly match, there is still a correlation because heat
conduction speed is somewhat constant. We only look for the
correlation.
Do we actually know what the input flow was, or the water outflow
was, after
the power was shut off?
Yes. Peristaltic pumps are quite predictive.

So, what then do you predict the flow from the pump would be if a
water inlet valve in the machine were closed?
It is a good thing to have measurements instead of estimates.
