jed, if the power were used to, say, run a thermoelectric heat pump, cooling one side of the pump, and heating something that was otherwise internally insulated . . .
Sure. I agree. That would not be passive cooling. However, people have looked inside Rossi devices and they have not seen heat pumps in them. A thermoelectric heat pump large enough to move several kilowatts is a large object which could not be hidden or overlooked.
I am saying that people have made this assertion about heat loss in a stable system, with the same flow rate or other means of heat loss. They are saying the heat loss can spontaneously increase or decrease. They have to explain how this can happen.
Naturally, if you slow down the secondary loop flow rate the Delta T temperature will go up.
