re: Thermo electric generation
Well, we certainly have a heat source to power a thermo-electric generator in the engines considered on this forum. The acoustic properties might be useful in electrical generation, also. The property of Silicates shedding electrons under pressure (Triboluminescence) could be used for greater effici...
