This business of shaft torque to be converted to heat I explored here some years ago.... my concept was to use a hydraulic pump to pressurize oil, pipe it to the locale to be heated and release the pressure in a manner designed to extract the stored energy as heat.... run it through a radiator, etc... heavy duty components, long life, readily available stuff. Fairly high conversion rate with insulated lines.
