Johann Bessler’s perpetual motion machine was impossible, that’s what we’ve been taught. But there is so much strong circumstantial evidence that it worked that it’s time to re-examine the facts; it could be a solution to providing the world with cheap, clean energy.
Gravity’s a force of course, it’s not a source of energy we’re taught, but, I fear, we’re missing something crucial here.
Bessler said the weights within the wheel were the actual perpetual motion, so it was their actions and reactions to gravity which enabled the wheel to rotate continually.
Gravity is ever present and applying its force on everything of mass, so whether an object is falling or is lying on the ground motionless, gravity acts the same, it makes no difference to the work done. So ten million Bessler-wheels using the effects of gravity, i,e., making things fall, will have no effect on the force of gravity felt on earth. (That’s for those who worry about such things.)
When weights drop in a wheel such as Bessler’s each one has to be lifted in order to drop again, to perpetuate the wheel’s rotation. There is no good mechanical reason why a certain configuration of the weights and their accompanying levers, pulleys and cords cannot be designed to lift the fallen weight by means of one or more other mechanism within the wheel. This has been known intuitively for thousands of years and just because no one has actually proved it, other than Johann Bessler, doesn’t make it any more impossible than designing and building a heavier-than-air machine that can fly does.
Gravity is an enabler that can cause things such as rivers to flow which can cause water wheels and turbines to turn. I don’t think anyone has called them gravity wheels even though gravity enables their action through the flow of the river.
Many people from around the world believe that Bessler’s wheel was genuine, I do and I am trying my best to find out he did it, by reading his four books and the many hints clues he left for us, over and over again. He embedded at least two significant chunks of coded information in Apologia Poetica and many of his drawings, any or all of which should help us solve this puzzle.
To improve the situation regarding the codes, I shall post information about them on this blog at regular intervals, in the hope that someone can take what I’ve done and progress it to the solution.

Bessler wheel has been extremely very elusive mainly because of four reasons, as far as I can visualise...
ReplyDeleteIts uniqueness... The internal mechanism... There's only one grand configuration...
Since beginning it is fraught with a lot of doubt... There simply has been too many false claims and assertions...
The sole belief that Gravity alone is the source... more than one principle is involved...
Total reliance on bessler's clues... Actually, Bessler has been shrewd enough to ensure that that his clues are not a direct giveaway of the real secret...
The answer is right under our noses because if you can raise one weight with unity a quarter of the length of time,the remaining three will over-balance the wheel to cause rotation.It is the excess weight that continues to turn the wheel.
ReplyDeleteTrevor... I think the excess weight is only for the initial start... once the wheel gains momentum it is inertia, angular momentum, cp and CF etc...
ReplyDeleteWhen something is to be initially lifted it is the extra or excess weight that is important... And once the wheel rotates fast other things come into play...
Like in a see-saw the heavier side has to go down... Here, the action is slow but in Bessler wheel the action is too fast...we have to take into account so many things once a thing gets going...
If it was just weight based or weight dependent then someone by now would have got it... There are so many other factors or dynamics involved... for example, the swinging, etc.,...
A riguardo del peso in eccesso l'esatta interpretazione è ( cade uno ed è come se cadesse quattro ), questo é l'ECCESSO DI PESO che permette un guadagno di energia sia in fase discendente che in fase ascendente, ricordate che un grosso peso vola verso l'alto,
ReplyDeletePG22+wrote - “ Regarding the excess weight the exact interpretation is (one falls and it is as if four falls), this is the EXCESS WEIGHT that allows an energy gain in both the descending and ascending phases, remember that a large weight flies upward”

Sorry,I cannot agree!This is the only way one can conceive that PM is possible without breaking the laws of physics.It is a continual avalanche due to imbalance.
ReplyDeleteBull's eye! Trevor is right, SK and PG are wrong!
DeleteCheers BNR
Overbalance on the descending side causes the wheel to rotate in that direction, pulling weight up the ascending side and over the top, thus the avalanche comparison.
DeleteThe secret is not in these movements, but in what causes the weights to raise. Something too many seem to forget.
Bonjour a Tous,
ReplyDeleteY a t-il un poste sur ce blog qui traite exclusivement du MT?

ReplyDeletePuò darsi che l'eccesso di peso infranga le leggi della fisica, oppure potrebbe essere un semplice fenomeno non ancora esplorato.

Thank you for the translation.
DeleteWhat I mean by excess weight refers to the weight that has already been installed, waiting to over-balance the wheel.
