How do you get infinite heat?

You first need to get an oven. Then seal the oven door with silicon glue so no air can get out. Then turn on the oven, a few minutes later, turn the oven off. Since heat causes expansion of Air, it makes more pressure, and pressure causes heat. Then the heat causes expansion, expansion causes pressure, pressure causes heat. and the cycle goes on and on..........
