Peter, Mats Lewan measured the output water temperature at two points in time and it was quite low. Review his report. What evidence do you have that the heat exchanger did not transfer the heat? I hope you realize that this suggestion of yours would indicate that heat was escaping the primary and thus more power was generated than expected. This is contrary to your early statements of low power.
As you should be aware, I have reservations regarding the location of the TCs just as you, but not with the heat exchanger.

All it has to do is to ondense and cool the vapor/water mixture that enters into the primary. The emperature of the exiting liquid was low enough and that is proof that the evice transferred the heat. he temperature of the exiting liquid was not measured. he temperature of the secondary out pipe was measured too close to the team/hot water inlet. The heatexchanger was horizontal and therefore had no condensate rainage. I must fill up with condensate. t could not produce more than 2° delta_t in this situation, because the rimary delta_t was 80° and the primary/secondary water flow ratio was :40. So it is proven, that the secondary delta_t measurement was wrong ue to wrong thermoelement placement. Peter
