Agreed. "Connections" could replace a lot of grade-school science classes, and raise the level of interest in STEM at the same time. It, and a show called "The Ascent of Man," really can change one's outlook on history.
Absolutely brilliant, one could start playing around with the fluid used in the illustrated bearing system, for example adding a small amount of soap to the water should reduce surface tension and in turn reduce friction by a tiny amount. A different example would be to use oils that take longer to evaporate.
As a sailor it's definitely untrue that drag is more powerful than lift. When sailing across the wind using the sail as a wing to produce lift, it's possible to go considerably faster than the wind speed itself, whereas downwind where the sails only produce drag of course you're limited to the speed of the wind. The observation about fishing boats could be due to any number of reasons, older sail designs (square rigged and gaff sails) are less efficient upwind, sailing downwind may give better controllability and less "weather helm" (force on the rudder), etc.
Actually this makes perfect sense to me (not free energy part) but it is possible to get more work out of what is put in a few instances. @5:54 the diagram looks almost identical to the inside of a standard airbrush. I used to have an airbrush with a small compressioin tank that was filled with something similar to one of those Foor-pedal style bike tire pumps connected to a series of one way check-valves. Anyway most people think that the air pushes the paint but it's the opposite. The air moves through a series of constricting passages, increasing the speed it moves & it rushing past the outlet where the paint is draws the paint into the airstream. I've worked with paints very thick paints & just-mixed epoxy & it had no problem drawing it out at only 8-12 PSI (The max it could compress to was 22 PSI).
OMG yes James Burke's Connections was as you say ........ awesome. His TV series & his book was fascinating when i was growing up, one of the thing i especially remember is him holding a realtively small piece of something that failed at key moment when a solar flare blacked out the grid in Quebeck in the late 70s or something, despite loads of studies & warning from those with alot of expertise were probably ultra vulnerable now more than then.
This video sets an impressive benchmark! Subscribed to witness your path to greatness! - "Value the journey, as it shapes your path toward exceptional achievements.."
An amazing example of this power of drag introducing energy was in emergency aircraft ramps. Instead of large weighty pressure tanks, it was found that a ridiculously small hi speed motorized air fan (comparatively) using drag could suck in enough extra air to inflate the ramp in 6 seconds. This was in UA-cam but I can no longer find it.
The Green Windmill VAWT, patented in 1998, solved the bearing issue. The rotor isnt rigidly attached to the hub and the sails create lift as they rotate. The rotor physically rises upwards as it spins and has to be restrained. I bought the plans which were available at the time on a 1.44mb floppy disc :) I built a 6ft`er out of odds and sods i had laying around. 12mm hollow fibreglass tubes, 15mm copper tube tee`s, some clear polythene, petrol strimmer line and some electrical connector blocks (aka chocky blocks). If you fancy building one i still have the plans which includes an xls to calculate the dimensions.
Can I second that motion to upload the plans... Obviously with the patent number if you have that too! I live in a really windy area and might try making one myself - what power output did you get from the 6ft model?
Question for you that I have asked over the years and still haven't got an answer to yet. How does Bernoulli explain how aircraft can fly upside down? Just asking.
The initial charge on the batteries would provide the necessary power required for the compression of the helium/hydrogen. After that the fall tops off the batteries for when you are back at the top. The batteries where implied.
These work beautifully in stopping stratification in process chemistry electrolysis etc very very smooth non turbulent fluid control with basically no moving parts
Good "Old Fashioned Ingenuity", IB curious perhaps another fluid with less viscosity might work well too. (I just found a bearing for my water well turbine, (makes it's own lubrication))!
Hi Robert, i was thinking how about a ballon turbine like you said i balloon that take a weight up and drops the weight from a controlled release from the the ballon and the drop force refills the balloon to catch the weight to start the process over agian and excess energy transfed down a connection feed line to charge a battery
Something to look at - as a child you may have made a “paper wind mill” on a stick, if you make it out of a sheet of plastic, how effective or efficient is it at catching the wind and turning it into power, like all wind driver generators its all about reducing drag as it turns.
The bearing is very interesting. A magnetic repulsion bearing would be even more friction free. The flap disc rotor is interesting as it uses the moving slat principle of other wind turbines I have seen. They use top hinged slats that drop down under gravity to catch the wind and then swing back up during their into wind part of the rotation. There are 3 major issues here. The first is the noise produced by the slats/veins snapping open and closing on every rotation of the main shaft. The second is that we have hinges/ bearings on each slat which will result in stress and failure. Mitigating the ware and failure there would be problematic. Finally, there is a need to stop or stall the rotor to avoid damage and effect repair and maintenance.
You could add foldible fins to the the bottle and use a bigger container, the water would act like a flywheel when it catches up to the bottle it would keep the fan going.
Great video Robert, if the bottle had some sort of fins on the bottom the water could act as a flywheel in gusty winds, a vortex below would suck the bottle down could be used like a cut-off switch if it's too windy?
Just a thought - A layer of a few mm of low viscosity oil on top of the water wouldn't add much friction, but would prevent the water from evaporating. Bingo... even lower maintenance.
The irony is that hydrophobic spray probably isn't going to stick well to the surface of a plastic bottle. But instead of using a regular plastic bottle, if you could find one made out of Teflon or UHMWPE, you would get some innate, noticeable hydrophobic properties.
You always inspire me. What about a two for. Attach copper springs on bottom flap and a rod and magnet fed to a slip ring. So power from the rim and from the action of the flaps. Just a thought.
Did you put water in the bottle that you used for the center part of the hydrostatic thrust bearing? I wondered if the water inside the bottle would act like a flywheel. That's a neat cheap bearing if it worked adequately. Thanks Robert
Liked the hydrostatic bearing. Could use a lightweight oil instead of water? Might not have to top the system off as frequently. Oil or water might be more useful than a magnetic bearing, maybe?
Rule of safe flight say you must maintain a certain altitude traveling east to west / north /south ect for each Cardenal direction. your not allowed to wibbly wobbly change your altitude to keep from colliding with other aircraft.
I don't think the fluid bearing will work if you have an axial flux alternator because the gap between magnets and coils will change, maybe sometimes crashing or rubbing. If you make the gap large to avoid this then your efficiency suffers. I have had great success with the single ball in oil bearing. Works like a toy top.
About liquid bearings, air is used, too. The faster it's spinning, the higher air pressure, so more weight can be supported. Maybe useful for flywheel energy storage.
@@kadmow Perhaps a superconductor may be used for that (otherwise there are eddy current heat losses). There is work being done on using superconductors in flywheel energy storage and also as magnets in wind power.
On "free energy", it is always true that there is no such thing as a free lunch. You always need to looks for where the extra energy is coming from. On bearings, you can buy balls that will work for not much money. It is the race part of it that is hard to do.
Hello from Prince George BC Canada, I just happened on your site today so I subscribed. Just a thought, when that wind turbine and was spinning in the beginning it naturally took the shape resembling an artifact in Egypt. Sorry off hand I forget the the name but is the strange disc that has a center point 2 upwards curled blades, and 2 openings. So will this be an answer to the functionality of the Egyptian artifact.
I don't thing that would be better unless you provide for a way to add air to the bottle to bring the pressure up to the point where the water/air boundary is right at the bottom of the bottle.
That's an interesting idea, I just might reduce the drag if you pressurized the bottle to push the system up and minimize the surface area in contact with the water. Additionally, a soap lowers surface tension of water so this might also reduce the friction in the system but at this point I think the friction of the radial bearings up top will have a greater affect than the axial bearing (ie the water and bottle)
The reason his plane works is simple: the refrigeration cycle. There is an asymmetric relationship between adiabatic pressure and thermal energy. When the plane takes off, the helium can't just be added to the blimps, the tank cools as the helium boils so energy has to be absorbed into the tank to allow the continuous evaporation of the helium. When the plane falls, the refrigeration cycle is in effect when the gas is being re-compressed. The refrigeration cycle is COP > 1 so it takes less energy to compress the helium than the helium absorbs from the atmosphere when it expands. The Primary Energy input is latent atmospheric heat....... It's not even free energy, just really clever and indirect solar energy harvesting.
The gravity airplane is a new version of the Aereon by Solomon Andrews, which is the first man-carrying aircraft to fly against the wind back in 1863... at least, against wind teaveling faster than 5 mph. You get more thust per kilogram out of propellers than you do out of pumps, vacuum, or compression. Regardless, the gravity airplane is a modern aereon, and aereons work just fine. Definitely no over-unity power, tho.
5:44 There's no violation of thermodynamics. The extra energy comes from the altitude of the gravity plane, due to the fact that it's lighter than air. There is no work done to reach this height, but you end up with a lot of potential energy when the plane becomes heavier than air by deflating the helium. So it doesn't violate thermodynamics any more than a blimp or helium balloon.
If you want a good demonstration of "free" energy ish get an aquarium air pump some pipe and a tee and a valve, get two bowls of water droop the pipe down onto the floor fit the tee on the upward pipe to the top bowl and if you get the air right it will lift water to quite a height then the water can run back into the lower bowl, I used to use these to maintain tubifex live food for my fish , they need a slow gentle flow of water , it relies like the aquarium air lift pipe on the difference in mass of the water in one half of the Syphon to the other if it's less it pumps that way
Firstly to say I may be talking a load of rubbish however one reason the gravity plane may not be a good idea is current aircraft have to fly at certain levels to avoid collisions so having a gravity plane cutting through these levels willy nilly might be a tad dangerous. Air space at present in Britain is quite congested so finding space would be tricky🤣🤣
These would never be used for civilian use, but the military probably would have some interest and rules apply less to them. At least so it seems plausible.
aviation rules apply to all aircraft civilian or military otherwise there would be chaos. When preparing flight plan NOTAMS have to be consulted to establish possible conflicts within airspace.
2:23 They could have used the the blimps / fuselages as capaciters for running the charging and running the pumps, making the two capasotors as part of the fuselages skin with a electrolyte medium wrapped around beyween few layers of carbon,. Enough for twice as much as needed, for emergencies and redundancy... 🎉 Make a model one and use Hydrogen, as long as you have no shorts and fire hazards, I'm sure it will work awsomly. And I am thinking you may not need to compress the Hydrgen much just a little as needed to fine control the buoyancy, and a few thinn solar panels on the wings, might be enough to power propellers, then the control surfaces can have anolog controls But for the models; you'll need servoes. Good luck, hope you's can make a working prototype.. 🛩️ 16:27 And drill a small hole at the prepped water height, so when it rains the water level will be maintained. Could also attach a reservoir to it if have a lot of evaporation...
This used to be Luke's spin off channel, but it appears they have removed a lot of his videos and now are recycling older videos that are on their main channel.
Energy harvesting is "free energy", not every free energy solution or idea is anti-physiics and anti-standard model. What people mean by free energy device is a device that will provide energy for free until it breaks as long as the condition are right and the energy come frome something else that you don't have to work to get or pay for. Some idea are more fringe, for example I want to discover the electrical energy equivalent to the Carnot Cycle/Refrigeration cycle. I figure that if that type of energy transformation/transportation is possible for heat energy, it must also be possible for electrical energy. If I can use 100 joules of mechanical energy to relocate 300+ joules of heat energy against a 45 deg K heat gradient with a heat pump, then there certainly exists a device in which 100 joules of mechanical energy can be used to relocate 300+ joules of electrical energy against a 45x Voltage gradient.

Would there be less drag if we remove the bottom of the bottle, so it floats on the air inside?
