Let me make a slight correction for the record:
Query: is "problematic" Rossi-speak or Rothwell-speak for "physically impossible"? The specific heat of steel is 420J/KG/Deg C - and this equates to a heat requirement of approximately 375 KWh to melt one ton of steel from room temperature. 130 KW was the supposed heat delivered to water in 15 minutes by the Rossi device, but it did not even create steam, according to the report - and this which would be the equivalent 520 KW/hr, had it continued. This amount of heat would have melted over a ton of steel in an hour - and Rothwell thinks it that it represents reality in a 5 kilo reactor, and yet no steam was even seen ! Where is the sanity in that? Give it up Jed, you lost an argument - get used to it. Jones From: Jones Beene Baloney. Do you want to keep posting this crap, Rothwell? You are completely exposed on this, and you will not get the last word in to safe face - guaranteed You said yourself the 130 kW was bogus - it is complete bogus, even if second rate authors say otherwise Jones From: Jed Rothwell I quoted: "Thus there is at least a 1000:1 error in that anecdotal appraisal, which is not a surprise . . ." Furthermore, that appraisal was done by the authors themselves, in NyTeknik. It isn't anecdotal -- it is what they measured and reported. - Jed
