I think that we on the diode array thread are discussing two separate machines that absorb heat while yielding electrical power. A photovoltaic cell that...
One of the keys to the supposition that this violates the Second Law is that no net energy is required to maintain diffusion of the solute in its solvent. I...

... Gary, this exactly describes the (supposed) working of the diffusion machine. It's a proposed 2nd law violator, i.e. it can take heat from a _single_ body...
... remove film solder the trigger leads together raise an aluminum foil sheet on a pole and hook to + side and a driven ground rod to - and after a bit the...
... Right, and that's why I think it won't work. I don't think that "active" diffusion, that is the diffusion of a solute into a more dilute solvent against...
... Well, you can try this at home. Put some sugar/salt at the bottom of a jar. Pour water in taking care not to agitate the sugar/salt. Leave it for a while....
... Right, but unless you can be certain it didn't absorb thermal energy from the surroundings you haven't proven it's a Second Law violator. Perhaps a good...
Roland is correct of course, and I am pushed to think of a more patently incorrect reason for a perpetual motion mmachine not working than the one Gary has put...
... Ah, but "the one Gary has put forward" is exactly what you're aiming at, below. It takes real WORK to raise that center of gravity, and I maintain that...
... Gary, it is expected that the diffusion machine will take heat from the environment. It has to get the energy from somewhere, otherwise it's a 1st law...
... working ... the ... environment, ... but ... It just cannot be done. Let's leave aside the problem of the very small tmeperature decrease that would result...
... OK, got it. It all comes down to IF the solute would diffuse upward to keep the cycle going, absorbing ambient heat while doing so. If not (and I can't see...
