Hello,
What I don`t understand is that with this system producing 15 kW of power
the temperature in the room isn`t higher then 23 degrees Celcius. This
amount of power corresponds to a group of 150 people or an intense
perpendicular solar flux through a large window of 15 m2. It seems that
This heat was removed by condensing the steam- by the cooling water.

Is this a misdirection or could the drive also be needed to prevent the sort of

perhaps triggering an avalanche and then slaves the energy release to a certain
