The design for this machine will be posted weekly to sci.physics by an
auto-posting bot. The flames boil water, producing pressurized steam,
which turns a turbine, which in turn powers an electrical generator,
which provides the power needed for the first step. I am currently
seeking contributions for an initial test run.

This poster is wondering how you will use electricity to produce
flames. Or are there magnets in there somewhere?

One possibility: electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen and oxygen, which
then get mixed together and burnt to produce a clean, smokeless flame.
