Combustion produces water. Air and hydrocarbons combine to form water and release energy in the process. Forming bonds releases energy, exothermic reaction. Breaking bonds absorbs energy, endothermic reaction.
I have long wanted to harness the power of expanding water when freezing and expanding water while heating… combine it all with some nitinol tech… achieve that sweet ass overunity dream… never tell anyone and live my life out with abundance.
Well the temperature to freeze water is very very precise and you only have to fluctuate it like .1 degrees... how much expansion force can you get given a volume of water? Is the mechanical force generated sufficient to power the freeze/thaw cycle? Is there enough energy left over for practical use? The mechanical force, I know, is tremendous... enough to split solid granite. The travel is minuscule, you'd have to use insane ratios on whatever method you use to convert the tiny SUPER STRONG kinetic force into a much larger yet weaker motion to drive generators. A gear train, a lever with the tightest pivot you've ever seen, or hydraulics might work.
People will tell you overunity is impossible. I don't buy that. Did you know the common HVAC heat pump is an overunity device? It does more work than it should for the energy you put into it. Good luck.
I get what you're saying, you can change that precise level with a change of air pressure. Atmospheric pressure can vary 5% daily, with it the freezing and boiling point.
Plus when you use it to try to do work and use it to apply a force you are going to be changing the pressure on the water/ice (equal and opposite force and pressure is force) and thus changing its freezing point.
Also if HVAC is an over unity device as ovyeyo says, we will pretend that's true, maybe that's an indicator that over unity devices aren't a secret to infinite abundance. At the end of the day if an over unity device gives off more energy than is put in you are still limited to the energy it happens to put out. All energy is free before it come to you. You aren't paying for the sun or wind. The question is is the material cost the best (least) for what energy you will receive from it. It is entirely possible that you could build an over unity device and it have no significant impact. "You could not build an over unity device because then you would automatically become the master of the universe." Lame bullshit science communicator trope.
Exactly, the energy output will always be proportional to the energy input. Even if over unity exists, the power limits may make such overunity impractical.

helion fusion energy.
it works without water
the plasma pushes against a magnetic field, and that produces electricity directly. kinda neat, yet still in development.

Let the Hudson fill in the crater and prevailing winds will take the steam and fallout east out into the Atlantic.
