Dear Horace, The missing variable is cooling water flow- to be established by Rossi- water that carries the excess heat generated by the 52 (?) Fat Cats and is partially transformed in steam- F1. The flow of mixing water- condensing the steam is say, 5-10 times greater than F1 see please the "formula" given in my paper. No peristaltic but other types of positive displacement pumps to be used, e,g. gear pumps- for which the flow is not influenced by counterpressure. This system measures the enthalpy in any moment, Including the start up period and possibly the heat after death. The formula for efficiency is actually O/3I because electrical energy is at least 3 times more valuable or expensive than thermal energy Peter
