In tropical regions, surface water can be a lot warmer than deeper water. This difference can be used to produce electricity and to desalinate ocean water.]]> 2019-10-02 14:36:00 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/392474029 william_harris17 https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393033561 Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion systems use a temperature difference to power a turbine to make electricity. Surface water is pumped through an evaporator containing a working fluid. The melted fluid drives a generator. The melted fluid is turned back into a liquid in a condenser cooled with cold ocean water pumped from the ocean. OTEC systems using seawater as the working fluid can use the condensed water to produce desalinated water.]]> 2019-10-03 14:14:35 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393033561 william_harris17 https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393039094 https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/hydropower/ocean-thermal-energy-conversion.php]]> 2019-10-03 14:21:59 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393039094 william_harris17 https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393040669 2019-10-03 14:23:56 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393040669 william_harris17 https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393041941 2019-10-03 14:25:41 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393041941 william_harris17 https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393043755 2019-10-03 14:28:15 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393043755 william_harris17 https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393044126 2019-10-03 14:28:47 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393044126 william_harris17 https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393044448 2019-10-03 14:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393044448 william_harris17 https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393045118 2019-10-03 14:30:22 UTC https://padlet.com/william_harris17/zzakmkc5znew/wish/393045118
