I understand that hurricanes get their strength from warm ocean water but do they take a measurable amount of heat from the water? ('Not going anywhere with this question, just wondering.)

    Look up Atmospheric Vortex Engines. Think giant fire tornados driving turbines. The more realistic designs use waste heat but Popular Science or Mechanics had a story decades ago where someone proposed creating giant fire tornados in the desert.
