   And there it is, they estimated the loss to smoke (convection) and   
   mirrors (radiation). For a credible test there would have been NO such   
   uncontrolled loss, all the heat produced would have gone into a   
   measurable temperature rise in a measurable weight of liquid coolant.   
      
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calorimeter   
   "A reaction calorimeter is a calorimeter in which a chemical reaction   
   is initiated within a closed insulated container. Reaction heats are   
   measured and the total heat is obtained by integrating heatflow versus   
   time. This is the standard used in industry to measure heats since   
   industrial processes are engineered to run at constant temperatures."
