Maybe you do not understand my position in this question. I am not convinced that there is a large power increase that you speak of. Horace has produced a graph and a method that should be able to answer that question. If it is in fact there, his technique should reveal it. Do you argue with FEA? It is not my curve, I can only reference it to help people understand the solution to the partial differential equation which is far more complex than my or even your gut feelings.
That is why I refer you to it, this is not my fight. Apparently you love to disagree with anything that I state, whether or not you agree with it. This is strange behavior. And you wonder why I choose not to have these discussions with you? I see you have a base of groupies that you like to keep happy, but that is a poor reason to conduct false scientific discussions.

Ask Horace to help you understand what it shows as he has the program that answers your question. Direct any further inquires to him. I am confident he can straighten your problem out. A graph is worth many words Cude. It is clear that a large instantaneous fixed heat source generates a delay which is followed by a rapidly increasing gradient. Look at the graph more carefully. In other words, you don't have a clue what the graphs mean, and you're hoping I don't either. But I do. In the first graph, a step increase in the power input at x=0, results in a very *gradual* increase in the temperature gradient at the water interface over several hours. The next graph shows the power transfer (proportional to the temperature gradient) increases slowly to about half the power input over about 3 hours. The graph he put in at the end involves active controls, which I didn't look up, but although power spikes occur there, they are extremely narrow, and not at all consistent with the step increase needed to explain Rossi's claims.
