If it wasn't a tomb, what kind of power plant does the book theorize it was?

According to the book, no king has ever been found buried in a pyramid. All of the kings were buried in the Valley of the Kings. The only mummies ever found in The Great Pyramid were placed there long after it was completed. The book speculates that the pyramid was a large chemical reactor. Shafts were crafted that fed a central chamber where a chemical reaction took place. At some point in time, an explosion occurred in the central chamber as evidenced by the wall, floor, and ceiling all being pushed outward by 1/4 inch. It was a very fascinating read. The author was a mechanical engineer. No Egyptologist on the planet agrees with him though.

Have you ever read the book"The Great pyramids" by Peter Tompkins.
He proves the structure is a mathematical model of the earth and contains many mathematical truths.

He is big on mensuration and the development of measurements. His theory is that the Kings Chamber is a temperature/pressure controlled room and the sarcophagus is a volumetric measuring vessel developed to establish true measuring devices for grain or other commodities requiring accurate measurement standardization.

I think his is the best overall work I have read.

Did the mechanical engineer check with chemical engineers to verify the existence or an explanation of their absence, of chemical residues from such an operation?

Did he detail the chemicals, and how much would have been required? Explain where they came from or how they were produced? How they were transported? What supporting infrastructure would have been required?

What was the 'power' used for; how was it transmitted/carried/stored; where are the devices it powered?

Why are there no records of this?

Not asking you to explain it; just wondering if his book did?

If he did, was it at all plausible; or, just an 'interesting read'?

What was the purpose of the power plant?

There were never any mummies found in the Great Pyramid. Its uses were apparently infinite outside of being a tomb.
