Thanks for that synopsis on Griggs, I met him at a conference and he
certainly seems confident. He went into a discussion about COP
(coefficient of performance) as opposed to efficiency and I need to get
that all on paper as it was most interesting. Perhaps its posted
somewhere on the net??
Usually I just stick with watts and horsepower, though watts are easier
for me since my background is electronics.
I've always had high hopes for hydrosonics, not for producing a lot of
power but primarily for heating...with Peltier junctions it might be
possible to make electricity direct from heat...lots of schemes for
that.
Dan Davidson tells me that any commercially viable overunity device will
have to be at least 300% efficient to match current power costs. In
fact I think it was a little higher, something like 320% or so. A ratio
of 1:3 so that it would run itself and have twice that amount of power
to use for other purposes. I'm not certain how that value was arrived
at, perhaps he will put it all on paper so it can be posted as a target
for COMMERCIAL requirements....however, at this point, we just need that
self-sustaining device PLUS 1 Watt output to spark the minds of everyone
who KNOWS this can be done.
It is interesting that what appear to be 'authentic' free energy devices
have to initially blow a hole in the aether (literally) with the maximum
amount of wattage they will be using.
As I understand it, it works like a fluorscent tube, where it takes some
power to produce the initial breakdown in the gases to arc them to
plasma, then it just takes a trickle current to keep the plasma alive.
Once ionized, the resistance is less and the unit requires less power.
So it is with the zpe/aether taps, blow the hole, then tickle it to keep
it alive, milking/translating the influx of surrounding aether to
convert it to electricity for practical use.
If you blow too big a hole, the viscosity of the ambient aether will
prevent it from refilling the hole fast enough to sustain the load, so
the mouth of this articifically created and sustained aether tornado
will enlarge, encompassing an ever wider area.
What I want is a device that will produce an aether tornado with a very
narrow mouth to feed the pinpoint of the drain and sustain low power
loads, up to about 200Watts.
As the mouth of this aether tornado opens up, the density of the ambient
aether drops and the local space energy level is stressed to produce
unwanted anomalies ranging from time distortions to dimensional shifts
to biological and mass disturbances. I base this on Bearden, Sweet and
a few others of less prominence. THIS IS MY OPINION AT THIS POINT BASED
ON NUMEROUS CORRELATIONS AND DISCUSSIONS OVER THE YEARS.
At any rate, good for Griggs, the more statistics he accumlates to back
up the operation of his machines in real world environments, the less
chance the machine is a lab queen that only operates under ideal
conditions.
I never heard what happened the Potapovs YUSMAR over in Russia??
Scott Little and Hal Puthoff had tested it down in Austin and reported
no overunity effects, but Scott did write that the pump he used did not
provide the minimum velocity that Potapovs pump used. Never heard what
happened after that.
Whoever started that thread on 'negative viscosity' was RIGHT ON with
what is really going on. The current flap about 'negative resistance'
is the electrical analog to the mechanical of viscosity so both are
worth keeping an eye on.
