u know if thous could work it would be easier to just put generator on an electric motor , and make motor turn the generator and generator would send electricity to motor
It's a wonderful way to get cheap entertainment. Design a machine that powers itself, with extra power output. Mesmerizing, charming, entertaining, and educational too!
Frenchman Serpolent (produced steam cars) that used a red hot bottom in a dry boiler that only had water injected onto it when steam was needed. The boilers did not last long, but due to small amount of water under pressure, they never exploded. Diesel engines rely on the heat from compression of air to ignite diesel fuel (25 or 30 to 1 compression ratio). This principal carried further might help eliminate the complexity of the batteries and heaters and make it more efficient.
This is a very similar concept to water injection in an internal combustion gasoline engine. The water flashes to steam and some even decomposes to hydrogen/oxygen in the compressed flame giving the engine aboout a 15% boost in torque. My Fiat got 110 MPG of gasoline with water injection.
the level of energy needed to power the generator would be more than the out put of the engine.the heaters would consume quite a lot of energy also. I like the idea though. ;)
infinite machine, really cool :)

"Design a machine that powers itself, with extra power output." would be the same as free energy...

@pappyfiddle A machine that powers itself with extra power output? Preposterous, that would mean the discovery of free energy.

@RonanRocha1994 Notice I didn't say "free energy", but "cheap entertainment"
