Reading the previous message , where You want to raise the 167 F to 250 F and about 120 PSI to drive a Turgo Turbine MAY not work. If steam only, the energy (...

It has been too many years I played with steam. Can You calculate the Venturi effect and define the water volume and PSI going into the Turgo ?. Assuming 80...
So, to get 250 degree water,....you are running the steam through a condenser? Randy--- In WoodGas@yahoogroups.com, "Natural Treasures Massage ... many times...
Hi Randy, I am still in the measure twice cut once mode. My family friend was a boiler man and he used water tube boilers (50,000 hp) to make 250*F at 110...
By golly, some of those machines remind me of my rams that I rebuild, what with the pressure domes. Piston machines are high maintenance (as are rams),...
Nando, In reality I am playing with 90+% hot water with just a bit of steam for pressure and a lot of btus to drive the system. I have only played with...
Well, I for one do hope it works. You may be on to something. Randy---- In WoodGas@yahoogroups.com, "Natural Treasures Massage ... rebuild, what with the...

If I understand this correctly, what you will have when ejecting hot high preasure water thru a nozel is a steam jet engine. The drop in preasure causing some...
Another idea might be to use one of these to run your turgo. http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn3321 that is if you can figure out how they work....
Near as I can tell, those are not quite the same. The one I was refering to admits a small amount of air also. There claim is this creates more thrust somehow....

The Bernoulli Principle is what I am intending to use but am hoping to trade some pressure for liters/sec to drive a Turgo. We actually have on our Fire...

The gen head is in perfect shape. It was simple a matter that the exhaust manifold is a upturned design, hence when it got rain water in it it pretty much...
Sorry, I should have said it may be a PE-95. Some of the PE's had a water box on top instead of an actual radiator. Sounds like it is time to pull the head and...
