I completely agree the turbine won't be as efficient. However, it might just be efficient enough to make a simple DIY system that works. With that said, does anyone have any info or knowledge about turbines and how you could make a semi-efficient one at home?
Everyone feel free to do testing on your own ideas. I have my own goals for this. If I can get free battery charging I'll be happy (for now
). More power would be great, but that adds more complexity to it since what do you do with that extra power now? There are tons of things you could do, but thats an entirely different project. My first goal is just to get something that works.
I definitely need to do some reading up on the Rankine cycle. I really don't fully understand it.
