Cathar.
Thanks
Probably not worth the effort to trace

If you are referring to the "heat capacity" limit, the effect is possibly best illustrated in a rehash of Billa/Roscal (link):



The influence can possibly be considered minor above ~1LPM.
Note the "Heat Capacity LimitC/W" calculated : DeltaT =1/2 *{DeltaT(inlet) + DeltaT(outlet)}

Both Cathar and yourself are excellent empiricists who are well versed in theory.
Problem is myself, as theoretician I am a dilettante.

I have nothing against helping a European tester,
you should find yourself a 'partner in crime' over there

Maybe His Royal Highness Prince Charles(have time for the guy) would support such a European venture.
It is possible.

His sister(Anne) and his grand-mother very much so.
HRH herself is 50/50
Although I am republican(UK definition) I have time for them.
Still hopeful North Light will win The Arc - style of running should suit - few winners come-off-the-pace
Did you ever visit Puddletown(Dorset), friends there

I was alluding to jumping other things (no offense intended)

I was not Les.
Actually I am not quite sure what I was referring to. Swedish beer is with some exceptions generally to be avoided in future.

The "heat capacity limit" is not something I had even considered before you mentioned it, except in a temporal sense. The only "max possible" limit I have considered is spreading resistance...
More to absorb. Oh, an unintended pun.

Just flattered that an empericist hack like myself could provoke a reassessment.

(Independent) proof of the pudding will come in a few weeks though.

I apologize if this is an inappropriate place to ask this but I have read many threads at this point that discuss the Storm and I've yet to see this addressed...

How does one go about getting a Storm block? Is this not being discussed because they aren't "officially" available yet? I realize that these are not a "commercial" product BTW.

(Note: I'm in the US)
