To generate super-heated steam mechanically, requires using hydraulics, as hydraulics are linear, example 3,000 psi times 10 = 30,000 psi
Next the pressure effect on water flow is also linear, in this case 3,400 meters a second.
From my experience you need to atomize the water and inject pulses to avoid destroying the system.
The atomized water clusters create tremendous Impact Heat. No external heat required to change to gaseous state.
As this only uses the energy needed to pump water, 10 H.P. will pump 450 lbs of water at 15,000 psi, creating super heated steam. ( 7.5 KW hr)
Why not replace old fashioned steam heaters, like nuclear power.
I'm not a nuclear power engineer, but can you produce 450 lbs of super-heated steam for less than 7.5 KW hr?
