This was a basic test to see if the power steering pump works, also what pressure is needed to generate heat.
I will have to get one of my DC motors to power the pump to test input vs output of psi/gmp.
You can use this basic formula to calculate how many hp is needed, can be expressed as:
PHP = gpm*psi / 1714
Watts is in fact power output, just as mechanical input create electrical watts output.
It is said that for every 2hp of mechanical work, you will produce 1kw of electricity. The lost is the mechanical frition, due to the rpm's needed to produce the 60hz or 3600 rpm in a basic ac generator.
As we all may know, 745.699872 watts is 1 hp, but it take more mechanical hp to make 746 watts due to mechanical lost of work.
I have not shown the output of power yet, to prove or disprove Clem's engine.
But to make a statment that this won't work is just over stepping things unknown.
