solar vacuum tubes overheat - steam engine
I've bought some solar vacuum tubes cheap (without instruction) (perhaps
navitron) someone says if i put the hot water tank higher than them then i wont need pumps. But what happens when the hot water tank is at 99 degrees at noon on a hot august day. where does the excess heat go? does it get hotter and hotter until the solder melts? or can the vacuum tubes get super hot? or can i harness the excess heat in a steam engine and get electricity?...
