Subject: Re: [microhydro] have shaft-torque; need heatflow, not electricity.
...Years ago i read an article where they were using wind mills to heat
water.....thereby heating a home when the wind blew......the picture that was
shown of the unit described it as a "agitator".....when spininng it would stir
the water so violently that it would heat up.....this seemed to be good load
matching with the windmills torque curve.......sorry this isn't much help but
maybe it will spark a link somehow.......Mark
