or maybe you had heard about it before?

The purpose of a text book is not to showcase every single example of a concept. That stupid wheel is simply another closed cycle heat engine, and a very bad one at that.

The reason no one knows about it is because it is useless in the real world. There are hundreds of better ways to produce power right now.
