Plasma electrolysis cell test

By taking periodic measurements of the voltage and current applied to the cell, averaging and then multiplying them to obtain average power, then multiplying that value by the total run time, the energy input to the cell was calculated. The before and after mass of the water was measured to find the amount lost by evaporation, and therefore the evaporation energy and that value was added to the energy due to the temperature change of the water to find the approximate output energy (this calculation did not include energy lost by the production of hydrogen and oxygen, which would have made the output somewhat larger). The output energy was divided by the input to find the coefficient of performance (COP). The COP obtained in this trial was 0.88, which means the measured output was less than the input, meaning the cell did not produce measurable energy. The experiment was done in an attempt to verify reports of anomalous energy production during the process. Several scientific papers have been published suggesting that the excess energy might be nuclear in origin.
