"Leguillon seems to have notion that heat originally stored as the water is
warmed up somehow vanishes and is never accounted for. That is not how a
calorimeter works."
Rothwell seems to like putting words into my mouth. If the ENTIRE energy
balance is looked at, it will obviously balance. ALL of the warm-up time (from
initial power-application to dry steam) needs to be in the equation just as
much as cool down.
I can't overstate this:
Noone will be fretting about stored heat UNLESS the output power observed at
the secondary never surpasses the peak input.
I haven't seen any results yet. A lot of emphasis is being placed on the
H.A.D., and that concerns me.
H.A.D. is unnecessary and will only muddy the water if it is merely a slow
temperature decay that is LESS THAN peak input.
I really hope for definitive results. I hope that this is a conclusive test.
It has a better opportunity than all previous tests, because there is no
opportunity for "water overflow".
These are extraordinary claims, and dismissing any criticism out of blind faith
is ridiculous. It needs to be evaluated critically.
If there is not a positive energy yield before the E-Cat is turned off, then
the Heat-After-Death will necessarily be in question, because there is no
evidence of Heat-Before-Death.
