What if one would build steam power and distill and keep all water

and always only need to boil to a steam matter of water that is constaintly 99 degrees ? And what if I explained how to do it with a possibility of in winter would heat your house and generate your power and run on it's own regeneration towards sustainment of the boiling with ease?

Hey Dude,

I think your post needs a bit more info but if Im on the right track ur talking about a perpetual motion, close energy system, Am I right?

Never thought of it before and from my position of ignorance it sounds like it could be a winner.

Im sure someone who knows about physics will be along shortly to dash our hopes for a greener future

I have many more and keep thinking of more and while some more substantial; I am reluctant to share on here. And if one would assume to clash as you say; should think before jumping into something that I have it thought and such as this one was extended thinking and if one would ever think of suddenly have legitamate arguements ; well I don't know what to say and that is seldom for me LOL

Unfortunately because of evaporation it wouldn't just run forever.

It is sealed; and I assume that I don't have to get into tecknicalities ; it also has a diaphragm to fluctuate it's instance of pressure changes where also could be controled with tweeking.

Then you have a huge buildup of pressure...

and kaboom.

Therefore, to relieve the extreme pressures the steam must be released at some point which causes your loss in water.

The diaphragm would also burst if at some point you didn't release the pressure.

Picture of typical steam and condensate unit:

Look up what a 'sterling engine' is a closed system that uses differences in temperature to drive it...

I'm not sure that it burst... what if you installed a pressure tank with a in and a out with PRV's both ways....also I have been playing with smallish magnetic ('perpetual motion' if you would) pumps for an alternative to our electric well water pump. I have a small one that seems to keep going for about a day on a small scale circulating water in a unsealed tube and reservoir system. I dont see why it also wouldn't work for a sealed system, especial if you used a distilled water, or had an additive of some sort to keep gunk from forming.

On my system I had contemplated trying to use iron flakes in side a copper tube system, and pulling the small charge from the copper back to the magnet to 'keep it charged.... but then you have rust and deterioration of the iron, causing gunk.... not sure what the answer is.... gonna superscribe to this thread to keep an eye on others ideas....

That's my whole point when you use the pressure relief valve (or PRV as you stated) you have steam billowing out, losing your water.

Could be much simpler than that and if insulated would only need to feed any lose of heat. But never the less; thanks for the diagram.

Even if you could make sure there was 0 water loss you still have the issue of the heat source, which is creating and using heat and energy. Whatever fuel is used in that process eliminate perpetual motion or unlimited energy whatever you want to call it.

I thought he meant to distill his own drinking water, and the excess steam would be used for power generation like any other steam turbine
