Best Possible New Year, everyone.
I arrived here after a period with wood heat but no electricity at all,
when I got interested in steam. Thanks to all for a great education on
the options. I am hoping to find a new situation with younger people
around where I can use a gasifier. What I'd like to try would be
expensive if I wanted maximum efficiency, but where the need for heat is
high and power modest, I think a great simplification might work.
With a turbocharger from a car, I think it would be easy to just
pressurize an airtight stove to produce a solid-fuel gas turbine. I
presume that sticking a magnet on the cold end would let a coil pull the
power off. Raising the pressure would get more efficiency, but drive up
the bill for exotic materials.
Best,

Hi Gasification Colleagues,
It's 2017 already and Happy New Year to anyone still linked to this
forum. I was surprised to see that no one has written anything since
August 2016, but then, even I have had little to offer by way of
interesting activity myself. With that in mind, I will post a Fluidyne
Archive update once I take a few more photos.
The trigger for this contact with the G.List, was a visit to me on the
30th December, from my friend of 31 years, Dr Ludo Lacrosse who is
well known across Asia for his work with energy projects. His office
is in Bangkok, so a chance for us to catch up and gossip about all
those people who have in the past made contributions to gasified
projects. Even though we work closely with people for years at times,
they still drop out of sight and friendships put on the "back burner".
So where are you all, and let's hear your 2017 opinions of renewable
energy.
Doug Williams,
Fluidyne.
