I guess what I am saying here is that a calorimeter *is* a self-running
device, in a sense. It is the simplest version of a self-running machine.
Especially with a gas loaded reaction. Arata's device supposedly ran for
weeks with no input. As I said, it was driving a thermoelectric chip which
drove a small analog watch motor, which made a piece of paper spin.
Sometimes. When the heat was high. It was less impressive than you might
think. When I saw it I thought, "this would be a whole lot better with some
real calorimetry instead of that watch motor." Arata's calorimetry is
usually of very poor quality. This sure was.
