No, it is spinning physics that does not work - physics *is* simple as long as one does not skip the linkage between different things: Econsumed = Econsumed_productive + Qreleased + Wreqired Econsumed_productive is what you actually used Qreleased is the energy released in a form of a increase/decrease heat Wrequired is the work required to get Econsumed.
