Simply because none of the observers (such as Levi, Kullander, Lewan
and Krivit) never required that or not even considered that that it is
trivial to measure the enthalpy from steam just by sparging steam into
water bucket. Therefore it is not Rossi's fault but those scientists
were to blame, who did not provide us relevant data. Something tells
about the quality of the scientists that Galantini thought that he
measured the atmospheric pressure inside E-Cat although his
instrument, DeltaOhm, does indeed measure pressure, but the pressure
sensor is in the device, not in the probe!
Your method for calorimetry is bad, because it is time consuming and
we do not have time. And also it does not fix the real problem, how to
obtain accurate calorimetry, so even in your method, results will
remain with high uncertainties.
It is more useful to do two separate real tests with ultra-accurate
calorimetry (at least three significant digits) and with two
independent teams of scientists, than one real test and one dummy
test. This way we can get more real data. Even better is to do one
long test run, to eliminate hidden power sources.
Calorimetry is simple and straight forward and well understood
science, although it is not well understood on discussion boards,
where people cannot put into context what method is the most suitable
for measuring enthalpy in _good enough_ accuracy. There are no text
books written on how to do calorimetry for E-Cat, that is the most
simple and most suitable.
