ok... but this is a totally difrent story... and who are you to tell me what i can and can not do?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_geothermal_system only problem is how to minimize cost of drilling and how to pump water without using electricity... If you put a huge pipe ( let say 300m long and 30 m wide) vertical all the way to the sea bottom and then drain the water from it...

Icland is doing that from the surface... You need to deliver water and you are limeted with few location. From a platform at sea you have water at the site, and you have much more location and not to say much thiner crust

Is it possible to drill two holes from a platform at sea all the way to magma. From one hole sea water is going down and from other hole/pipe steam is going all the way to the platform where it is used for revolving turbine.

I think the bigest problem would be that the pipe would had to be on big elevation from ground due to a fact that is a depresion! and that pipe fileed with water would be wery heavy... so you would have to put the pipe so it is folowing the ground and still you would have a big flow and presure...

also you have much others depresion and they are almost all located near the sea, and where the tectonic plates colide

The lowest exposed land on Earth is at the Dead Sea shore, at -413 meters. How about runing a pipe from mediteran sea to a dead sea... the bigest siphon ever! you could run a turbines with the fall of wather of 423meters !

@ jared look what jschmidt wrote at th second page

Ok. first You are telling me to run numbers now not to... I do not know anymore... does anything I wrote has any practical use anywhere on the planet or it is all nonsens

the post that you do not see question is only a statement because I was trying to explain that siphon does not work because of the weight of falling water is higher then the one that is coming up.

I am just asking if one of you has time to run some numbers and see if this what I wrote in my previus post would work.. I do not have a knowledge to do that... all that I said in previus post is my assumption...I never did any numbers P.S. apology accepted

ok. I am interested if you run a pipe from sea to a hole nearby and all the way down to magma will it start syphoning efect(after you fill the whole pipe with water)... and if you put a parallel pipe that is going almost all the way down and then conects to a first pipe will the steam come...

look i am not a physicist... i am trying to make you to do calculation... i am not smart enough and this is not a joke or understaitment

i do not have to pump it... i can let the weight of water to do that... if the pipe narows at one point then uper pipe will acumulate water let say 200meters of water... that is a big presure

now jared will go balistic:smile: what if you put a turbine and generator in that hole so you have hydro and geotermal energy at once:!)
