Abstract
A 'Steam Powered Stove' which burns any suitable fireplace fuel in a standard stove firebox. Directly above the firebox is a water boiler tank. This tank has tube penetration extending into the firebox for increased steam generation efficiency. Steam pressure is directed to a regulator which can readily be adjusted to the desired pressure by turning a long stem handwheel. Steam pressure strikes the blades of a turbine causing fans to rotate. Cold air is drawn by the fans through a heater box and then into the atmosphere. A removable pulley can be attached for driving other equipment. Water level is maintained by an inherent water fill tank. Used steam is exhausted up the vent pipe.
