Too bad, Rossi's method was way better, because it can give, especially with this new version, much higher accuracy with much less efforts. Calibration of this system alone will take days! Only thing, what was required, was that people understand the concept of steam pressure. Since people do not usually have experience from autoclaves, espresso machines and Fukushima's water boilers, they might have hard time to understand how it is possible that steam cleaner produces 110°C steam. I wonder if there is a heat exchanger that superheats the steam?! Anyway there was nothing wrong with the method, but independent scientists just could not come up with the idea that it is possible to do steam sparging calorimetry and measure the liquid water content of outlet with simple water trap. –Jouni
