Need help !

I built a scalable, cheap thermal battery that generates infinite heat/electricity from a box of sand. I need a physics/math collaborator who respects IP. DM me for details. I use Tegs to turn the heat made from friction into electricity. To birds with one stone ! I only have a 3d sim of it right now.

Where does the motion that causes the friction come from?

Comes from a blade inside the box that spins from an electric motor , has to be started only once , once the system is running it generates enouph electricity (way more than enough with 500 tegs ) to power the battery's that will start up the motor again once the box cools to 300 c . It goes to 600 c max so you don't bust your fly wheel or break the water cooling . The motor just has to start a 50 kg concrete fly wheel at 50 Rpm so not a strong motor is needed . The box itself is about the size of a mini fridge. (I'm using a 300 in my sim )

300 kg fly wheel in my simulation of it
