I have pointed these out to Rossi. The emitted power calculated with Stefan Boltzmann’s formula is too low – Rossi used (T(K) – T0(C))^4 when it should be T(K)^4 – T0(K)^4, as far as I know. This gives an output power of 17.6 kW instead of 14.3 kW. I cannot understand how the energy consumed is calculated from the average power consumption. 278/2.4 gives 118 hours… The total output energy is calculated on 228 hours and not 328 hours as indicated (and there’s a decimal point where you should expect a comma).
