My Two Cents: I really hate to go on the record with predictions, but why not just for fun? FWIW, I really, really hope that I am wrong. Predictions: 1) This test has the potential to be quite conclusive. It won't be. 2) It will take a LONG time for the e-Cat to come up to temperature. Only after it's stable, Rossi will begin circulating water in the secondary, and the e-Cat temperature will drop a little, and then have to stabilize again. 3) Secondary water flow will be properly measured and regularly recorded, but input primary power measurements will still be inconclusive. i would REALLY like to see Voltage and Current (Thru-Line , not clamp-on, measured from an eCat equivalent of "mains distribution") 4) Power gains will be relatively small and will be reliant on calculations using a "no input" value during the supposed "self-sustaining" mode of operation to exist at all. As a result, we will all be cursing the "self-sustaining" mode as an unnecessary invention that only muddies the results. Many will say that the hours of "warm up time" should correlate to hours of "cool down" time, and that residual heat can explain away the maintained temperature. 5) Rossi and Jed will say that the test was conclusive (Sorry, Jed)
**Note: All that we NEED here for a conclusive test is: 1) Input power properly and completely measured, time-stamped, and flagged with any Rossi-enduced duty-cycle changes during operation. 2) Secondary circuit water flow with flowmeter measurements, continually recorded and time stamped 3) Secondary circuit water flow input temperature, continually recorded and time stamped 4) Secondary circuit water flow output temperature, continually recorded and time stamped 5) Sufficient operation time to rule out a conventional reaction Extraneous data will only serve to complicate what should be very straightforward calculations.
