Hi Following Mickael McKubre critics, I posted a question for the testers but some here may answer with the public data
- assuming the convection factor is maybe badly represented (underestimated for the dummy, over represented for the active) because the dummy was tested at lower temperature than the active, what is the minimum possible COP than one can absolutely judge from simply thermal radiation ? - can the moment when you increased the power by 100W and the apparent heat increased by 700W be enough to support a COP above 1 ? - is there a simple way , with minimal assumption, to be sure that the COP>1 - it seems that the dummy was less hot with more power in, and the active version hotter with less power, do you confirm ? - was simply the active version wil less power visibly more brightly than the dummy when powered more without the load? (this one only for the testers) - is it thus impossible that COP is not above 1, even if many errors have been done, like on emissivity, transmissivity, calibration, convection ? - can you provide computation of different possible COP assuming huge errors in those parameters ? if the "extraordinary claim" of COP>1 is confirmed, maybe the normal claim of calorimetry can be more easily accepted (even if McKubre remind us to be cautious on the exact number).
