The first text describes an implementation with electronic components. The method described in this text attempts to build a case for the Perpetuum Mobile using no more than Isaac Newton's formulas for Energy and Distance. Indeed, the very science that holds the Perpetuum Mobile to be impossible, also use these formulas as fundaments We will use a standard commercially available bilge pump, a rotor plate of radius 1/2 meter. Pump parameters: Pin = 210 Watts Q = 4000 liters/hour at 2m elevation = 1,1 Liters/sec Tube diam = 1 inch = 2,54 Cm = 0,254 dm All we now have to do is to find the constant FORCE that this pump will give. Then we place a tube on the rotor so that the water flows radially out towards the periphery, and finally the tube is bent so that the water is expelled backwards compared with the direction of rotation. This then produces the forward thrust we need. We find this FORCE to be: Pressure P = Tube Volume * Water Density / Tube Area = Phi * (0,254/2)^2 * 20 dm * 1(Kg/dm^3) / Phi * (0,254/2)^2 = 20 [Kg/dm^3] FORCE F = Pressure * Area tube = 20 [Kg/dm^3] * Phi * (0,254/2)^2 = 1 Kg = 10 [N] This thrust force is a minimum for the pump, because it is calculated for an elevation of 2 meters, or 20 dm. Now we can use Newton's formulas to find what amount of POWER we can get (load) from the rotor at a particular rotational speed: Kinetic Energy Ek = Force * Distance = F * S [Joule] S = V * t [m] Ek = F * S = F * ( v * t ) = F * v * t Power P = Ek / t = F * v * t / t = F * V [Watt] From this simple formula we see that with a constant force that does not depend on the speed, the output Power is directly proportional with the speed at the periphery. This is important, because it means that regardless of what amount of constant input power is required to produce the constant force, the output power can always be made larger than the input by increasing the speed sufficiently. At what speed will we have equal output and input power, or 'break-even'? In our example we have an input power of 210 Watts. Lets do the calculation: Po = Pi F * V = 210 10 * V = 210 V = 210 / 10 = 21[m/s] We see that it will require a peripheral speed of 21 m/s to 'break-even'. This equals different RPM's depending on the rotor radius: Rotor Radius 0,25 0,5 1 [Meter] RPM 800 400 200 [RPM] The input power of 210 Watts would have to be supplied all the time. What if we supplied it from a generator driven by the spinning rotor? The 210 Watts would then have to subtracted from the output power we found earlier: Available output Pn = Po - Pi = 10 [N] * V[m/s] - 210 = 0,53 * RPM - 210 [Watt] At 400 RPM's all the output is used to drive the pump. At lower RPM's the device uses more power than it produces. But, at RPM's above 400 RPM's it will start producing surplus power whilst being self-supplied with drive power. E.g. at 800 RPM's it would give 210 Watts available output to be spent, whilst at the same time feeding back 210 watts to drive the bilge pump. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Norwegian Free Energy Group ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
