Can pressure be converted into electrical energy?
« on: December 11, 2009, 05:42:36 AM »
First off, I'm not a chemist or a physist...as I am sure you can tell by my idiotic questions. I am wondering if pressurized gas/liquid can somehow be converted into electrical energy. If so, what is the most efficient way of doing it?

Thx
