ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for converting heat energy into mechanical energy in which a liquid is maintained against the outer walls of a cylindrical container due to centrifugal force caused by rotation of the container; a plurality of reservoirs are provided extending radially outward from the walls of the container and protruding into a stationary heating device extending around the entire path of rotation of the cylinder and reservoirs. The reservoirs are heated sufficiently to vaporize liquid as it is forced into the reservoirs due to the centrifugal force. A portion of the liquid that is vaporized then forces a portion of the liquid which has not been vaporized to be expelled radially inwardly from the reservoir and against a turbine rotor blade fixed for rotation about the same axis as the cylinder but independently of the rotation of the cylinder to thus provide the power output.
