Re: Why can't we beat 2nd Thermo with low f-ratio?



The second law of thermodynamics is well established. It is just not
violated. Can it be if you are clever enough? Possibly, but I doubt it. I
choose not to spend much time on such a subject until someone shows evidence
of it being overcome. Do so in a creditable experimental way, and you will
become famous and maybe rich. Until then, you will be considered to be a
quack. Meanwhile, I will make an occasional gratuitous remark now and then.
