Subject: [microhydro] have shaft-torque; need heatflow, not
electricity.
I don't want electricity. I want heatpower.
A microhydro shaft is delivering kinetic energy; and heat is kinetic
energy. I'll be darned if I'm going to suffer conversion
inefficiencies with an electrical intermediary.
Most facile way to turn shaftpower into heat?
// You can try my Discrete Power Converter.
It converts gravity force of the falling water
(actually not just water) into big torque
by means of big beam (as lever).
Then you can heat black oil mechanically (directly,
without electricity) by means of friction and to get
hot water in the heat exchanger eventually.
However this is non traditional way, so you have to challenge it.
With best wishes,
