Re: [biofuel] bi-metallic thermal generator
This type of electical generator is currently being manufactured in Canada by Global Thermoelectrics: http://www.globalte.com/index.htm They also are a leader in fuel cell development though not heard of as much as Ballard are! (I think president Jim Perry likes it that way until he gets closer to a marketable product!) Check them out!

So many fascinating ideas and so little time. What we really need is to figure out how to get an extra 10 hours a day.

anyone want to pick this up and continue their research? exhaust driven heat from a biogenerator, or even solar collection?

Re: [biofuel] bi-metallic thermal generator
Looks like they where well on the way to a KISS solution then their TIPS let them down They stated the problem a half dozen times as variable input temp and then didnt try to address that issue instead of playing around with a volt control system that will reduce efficiency and reliability and increase complexity.(makes a lot of sense to couple your device to the most static - whether source or sink) Oh well - they might have worked it out by now.!! regards John -Original Message- From: Mikel Pelly (by way of Keith Addison) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: biofuel@yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday, 25 February 2001 6:54 Subject: [biofuel] bi-metallic thermal generator >Letter from Mike Pelly: > >Keith, this is a page I found and is now archived on a Mitshubishi >site of all places.

[biofuel] bi-metallic thermal generator
Letter from Mike Pelly: Keith, this is a page I found and is now archived on a Mitshubishi site of all places. Looks like they might now own the patents on this one too. The process generates electricity from dissimiler metals (semi-conductors I think)they are each at a different temperature. The dingbats at NASA space center use this principal to power the Cassini space probe's instruments, Except those morons use plutonium to create the heat and the dark of space to harnesss the cold. Its a good concept for use with woodstoves and boilers though. I've always thought might also work well with Russian or masonary type stoves. Have a conductor in the firebox, one outdoors, and a conductor between them encased in fired clay. I wanted to throw it out there in case you or others never heard of it.
