Cool stuff! If the steam is still pretty warm after passing through your turbine, you can run it up an insulated pipe to a rooftop cistern, and once it makes a U-turn and starts heading down, you can pass it through a diesel truck aluminum turbo-intercooler. The slightest breeze will condense it back into a liquid and you'll have hot gravity-flow water on the roof.

I'm an old Navy steam guy, (used Uranium instead of wood, though) describe your turbine, please!

PS great job on the boiler and guitar! -Ron

I am working on a injector system to replace the water in the boiler. Thanks for the input.
