(Forwarded from Wayne Catlett. For those of you who are not familar with =
the
Newman energy machine, I also followed with my own summary of the Newman
energy machine which is part of a survey of advanced technologies I wrote
for a foreign resort development. Please note that while I tried to
faithfully portray Mr. Newman's machine and his theories and claims based=
on
information I was able to find, I can not personally vouch for the comple=
te
accuracy of all details without further investigation. Gary)

Gary I am new to Keelynet and am really an observer. I find the
conversations very intriging, thought provoking.

I am not really up to date on the Newman motor however with respect to
voltages across the capacitor spoken of by Mr. Jones, one way that a volt=
age
increase could take place would be the inductive reactance of the winding=
of
the motor as reasonance was approached.

If I remember correctly from electronic circuit design (many years ago) a=
s a
tuned circuit approaches reasonance, the inductive and capacitive reactan=
ce
become very high. The current flow is determined by the Q of a coil
(inductance) which can be relatively low allowing relatively large curren=
t
flow. This can set up a condition where the voltage is higher across a c=
oil
at resonance than the supply voltage (E equals I x R).. I think this is =
the
principle of some voltage doubler circuits. There has to be an oscillati=
ng
function in the motor for this to occur.

This is just a thought, answering how a voltage may increase in a circuit=
,
and I may be way out of school since I am not well versed on the Newman
Motor. If this is off of the wall, then please excuse my interruption.

(My summary, written by me, Gary, follows:)

Newman Energy Machine. Joseph Newman has invented a rotating electrical
machine which has two totally different designs (but with many
sub-configurations within each basic design). As an electric motor,
considerably more mechanical power can be supplied to its load than its
electrical input power. As a generator, considerably more electrical powe=
r
can be supplied to its load than its mechanical input power. Energy
production gains have been in the neighborhood of ten to one.

Newman claims that traditional electrical engineering has been harboring =
a
150-year-old fallacy that has resulted in all electric motors being
constructed with built-in inefficiencies. This fallacy is the belief that
the strength of the magnetic field surrounding a copper conductor coil co=
mes
from the input current. Instead, the strength of the magnetic field
surrounding a copper conductor coil comes from the atoms of the copper wi=
re
contained within the turns of wire as aligned by the input voltage, not t=
he
current. And the greater the input voltage (up to the maximum atom alignm=
ent
of the atoms in the copper coil) the stronger the magnetic field surround=
ing
the coil and hence, the greater the back electromotive force field.

Newman describes magnetic fields as gyroscopic particles spinning at the
speed of light. These gyroscopic particles represent the mechanical essen=
ce
of Einstein's equation of E equals mc exponent 2. Newman has discovered a
highly efficient means to harness this magnetic energy emanating from the
copper coil.

Electric motors typically operate at high current and low voltage with
resulting inefficiencies. Newman=92s motor operates at low current and hi=
gh
voltage. The high voltage achieves maximum atom alignment in the motor=92=
s
copper coils.

The significance of high voltage on the Newman motor/generator is that
experimental data shows that 1) the output power increases as the square =
of
the input voltage; 2) the input power increases linearly with the input
voltage; 3) the motor efficiency increases linearly with the input voltag=
e;
4) generator output power levels required, for example, to power a home w=
ill
require input voltages estimated at ten to twenty kilovolts.

One dictionary=92s definition of a commutator is =93a series of bars or s=
egments
so connected to the armature coils of a dynamo that rotation of the armat=
ure
in conjunction with fixed brushes result in unidirectional current output=
in
the case of a generator and in the reversal of the current into the coils=
in
the case of a motor=94. A Newman energy machine when intended to functio=
n as
a generator uses one commutator design, and a totally different commutato=
r
design when the energy machine is intended to function as a motor.

Joseph Newman supplies an external electrical stimulus to his coil (and
special commutator system) that generates the magnetic field containing t=
he
gyroscopic particles (matter in motion). This external electrical stimulu=
s
takes the form of high voltage, and the higher the better until maximum a=
tom
alignment of the coil is achieved. At the same time the current is kept a=
s
low as possible to minimize resistance; thereby the Newman motor always r=
uns
"cool."

The externally applied high voltage is not "consumed" by the system; it
operates in the same manner as the hydraulic system in an automobile. The
reservoir of brake fluid is not "used up" but supplies a continual hydrau=
lic
pressure to the automobile's brake system. In a similar fashion the high
input voltage (and low current) acts as an electrical 'hydraulic' pressur=
e
to continually realign the atoms within the motor's copper coil. The
continual collapse and expansion of the copper coil's magnetic field crea=
tes
the mechanical torque of the motor. (The special commutator system achie=
ves
this continual collapse and expansion of the magnetic field.)

The net increase of external electrical energy from the system directly
comes from the energy produced internally within the copper coil. This ne=
t
energy is greater than the small amount of current originally fed into th=
e
system along with the high voltage. In the final analysis where is the
excess energy coming from? Answer: From the atoms of the copper coil
within the motor/generator.

Dr. Roger Hastings, a physicist who has worked extensively with Joseph
Newman over a number of years, has calculated that this system is so
conversion efficient that it may take decades (or far longer) to be able =
to
measure any appreciable mass loss in the coil.

Such a process is consider to be fully in accordance with the First Law =
of
Thermodynamics. When the system is viewed as a whole, it is imprecise to =
say
that the Newman motor/generator simply "produces more than it consumes."
However, it is correct to say that "the external energy output is greater
than the external energy input" that is, an external energy input
considered independently of the large internal energy produced by the New=
man
motor/generator.

In other words, the revolutionary nature of this system is the fact that
Joseph Newman has discovered a new electromagnetic principle of nature an=
d
has innovated a technology capable of converting matter (copper coil) int=
o
energy (in accordance with E equals mc exponent 2) via a highly efficient
electromagnetic reaction rather than an inefficient nuclear fission
reaction.

In the Newman energy machine, the electromagnetic conversion (of matter t=
o
energy) efficiency approaches 100% [rather than the less than 1% conversi=
on
(of matter to energy) efficiency of a typical nuclear fission reaction.] =
The
production efficiency of the Newman energy machine has been found to be i=
n
excess of 800%, i.e., over eight times as much external energy output as
external energy input.

For twelve continuous hours, Joseph Newman operated a recent production
model of his motor which was attached to a Grainger reciprocating pump. T=
he
Newman motor pumped 1 gallon of water per minute at 12 PSI at the Lucedal=
e,
Mississippi City Park. The voltage source was a local alternating current
connection to the Newman motor through a conventional house watt meter. =
The
Newman motor utilized the city grid voltage but not the current. When a
conventional motor was operated on the city=92s electric power grid the h=
ouse
watt meter proceeded to turn, indicating that external electrical energy =
was
being consumed.

During the entire 12 hours that the Newman motor pumped water, the house
watt meter did not move. Moreover, for the entire 12-hour period, the
Newman motor ran cool. The news media, city officials, and representative=
s
of the local power station observed and corroborated these results.

Other experiments such as using the Newman motor for a power saw and as a
fan motor also have demonstrated substantial power gains.

(Please note that I am not in total agreement with Mr. Newman's explanati=
on
of the physics involved. Again, I simply tried to completely show his
viewpoint without introducing my own ideas. Sometimes, theories not
currently in compliance with mainstream science DO turn out to be more
nearly correct as we are seeing with low-energy nuclear reactions more
popularly known as "cold fusion". Gary )
