Of course you are correct if water is being forced out of the ECAT. I see no reason to believe that that is the situation since an attempt was made to measure the water and some was captured. It should also be noted that Rossi and company had the input power set to 180 kWatts during the initial portion of the self sustaining mode. The ECATs should have been producing 1 MW under that condition before the power was shut down. If that was the case, then twice as much water was being evaporated as inputted to the ECATs during that time. This is further evidence that they were not full of water and overflowing. Again, I do not need to apply the ignorant engineer card every time things do not add up. The only way that anyone can suggest that the ECATs were full and overflowing is to assume bad test procedures.

The question is what is the dryness of the steam before it entered those devices? Do you have any reference to this information? Are we talking about only 5% at this point? Water is never forced through boilers by design, so the steam would be more than 90% dry. In the ecat, the input water flow is constant. If the power doesn't keep up, water is forced out with the steam. And then it can be very wet indeed.
