I’m a regular listener to Undecided, but it does seem most of what he covers never goes anywhere.
I had missed or forgotten your mention of that thread Tom. I chose not to pursue that design where I was attempting to harness the power of a microburst. I do believe it will work very well when charged with multi-bar pressures. So well in-fact that it may be a problem. The idea of a true ambient heat powered energy device sounds great on paper, but would be a bad mix with man-kinds propensity for never ending power and wealth. Perhaps it would be better kept in one’s back pocket for a day when we can all value the earth and its resources more than profit margins.
For now the idea of a practical heat powered ECE piston engine seems a better fit.

Well golly jeepers! I sure stumbled into that one. I know whom Will Ferrell is. Guess I didn't realize Google was mixing the two before I blabbed. I apologize.Tom Booth wrote: ↑Fri Jan 03, 2025 10:49 amThe comedian is Will Ferrell, not Matt Ferrel.Fool wrote: ↑Fri Jan 03, 2025 8:57 am That's it? Name drop Matt Ferrell, a comedian.

Does this really look like an episode of Saturday Night Live to you?

This is VincentG's thread I was thinking of:
viewtopic.php?t=5545
I wouldn't rate Matt Ferrel's YouTube video as being 'Saturday Night Live' (SNL) like. I seem to learn way more from SNL. All that video did was try to sell a cascade heat pump. It was an advertisement. An advertisement's main purpose is to sell you something you don't want, or more of it even if unneeded. As good as a cascade heat pump is, it is nothing magic. It's a regular, but improved product. Buy one if it fits your project. They claimed a COP of 5. Normal heat pumps produce COP's of 3 or 4. The Carnot limit can easily be as high as 10 or 20 depending on outside and inside temperatures. Again, magic no. Better yes,. Over the Carnot limit? Not even close. It is just improved specifications for an established market. Of course cascading heat pumps are more expensive.
Matt Ferrell is an entertainer, specializing in advertising, and wasn't even talking about KPP.
You still seem to think that a ton of advertising adds up to, magic, over unity. That is your choice. Good luck with that.
