Do we know how they measured the temperature at the output of the primary? The temperature variations at the secondary look very suspicious (not following rhyme-nor-reason, and taken too infrequently to track trends). Those measured temperatures of condensed steam, at the output of the primary, are by far the most problematic of the bunch.
