I hope they are not used for that purpose. A spice model is an electronic model that handles non linear analysis. In order to simulate Rossi's ECAT, you use electrical components.

I have had one working now for close to a year that demonstrates a COP of 6 when the device is at the threshold of instability. A COP of 3 is much easier to control although both must operate within a region which is normally unstable without input power modulation. I drive my model with a pulse width modulated source just as Rossi's actual device. I find that his statements about the operation of his ECAT make sense according to the behavior of my model. I am using a spice model.

I'm working on the Spice zero'th-order model. I've got a nonlinear resistor model twitching (with a table lookup) --- I just have to plug in the right equation. (And calibrate it).
