I'm sure it could be done, and its a very interesting idea. However, unless you have a significant thermal differential, there really isn't much power to be harnessed. The medium just won't build up enough momentum/pressure to generate a useful amount of energy.

I wonder if this idea wouldn't be better suited to use in a solar hot water setup? The temperature differential there would be much higher.
