    Abstract: The present invention teaches that a power generation system of the type having been based on Dalton's law of expansion with an engineered gas suitable for changing phase between liquid and gaseous states within a engineered thermal differential. Using high pressure tubing in vacuum as a conduit for the engineered gas charge, heat energy is applied to the heat exchanger, the liquid gas expands and tries to equalize in the system, moving from its liquid receiver to the low pressure side of the system. Still mostly in liquid form the engineered gas passes through a pressure reversing valve, and turbines capable of running at high pressure. The gas then passes through a regulating orifice until decompression and condensation occurs in the second heat exchanger. The cycle then is continuous. The power generated can be stored in a power storage device or used directly through a power inverter.
