Notes about compounding turbos/steam turbines:

I've wondered if a 6-stroke engine could be reasonably used as a turbine by combining the output of the diesel exhaust (preferably after a turbo) with the steam exhaust. The combined output could be fed into a steam turbine that could be going a reasonable factor of the engine speed (if not 1/1).
