When watch todays windfarms, hundreds meters big, and how quicly (slowly) they "work". They are working allready in some 5.....12 rpm only. So there is technology for producing power from gc (gravity converter). Even there must do downshifting for speed, do get more power. It is then allready "against" windfarmers also. So there will be not only petrol companies against you, but also all "alternative energy" compwnies also.

Their main purpose, however, is to prove that imbalanced or "overbalanced" pm wheels are physically possible. Once the mainstream scientific world realizes that, there will be a scramble to see if Bessler's original design can be improved upon to greatly increase its power output or the rate at which it can extract the energy of its weights to perform external work. If that can be done, then Bessler's wheels will lead to something important. If not, then they will remain interesting curiosities that various technology museums around the world will want to put on display for their visitors. All of the kids out there will want a model version to build and play with. And, we can, finally, look forward to a quality movie or tv series about Bessler so that the world can be acquainted with his most interesting life and times. I can't tell at this point in time exactly what will happen, say, five or ten years from now with regard to this subject. If I manage to announce success this week, then, no doubt, we will have some very interesting years ahead of us!Ken Behrendthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09111248107623433638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862207778089432835.post-41246254092272920772015-07-19T23:14:04.961+01:002015-07-19T23:14:04.961+01:00Thanks for the well wishes, James.

This, of course, immediately reminds me of the hands on a clock slowly creeping toward the 12:00 position on the dial. But, is it to be 12 noon or 12 midnight? If 12 noon, that would represent victorious success in finding the secret imbalanced pm wheel mechanism Bessler used and definitely the high point of my lifetime research into various "exotic" subjects. If 12 midnight, however, then that would represent crushing failure and definitely one of the low points of my lifetime research efforts...literally, decades and thousands of hours wasted! <br /><br />Powerful stuff this numerology and no wonder Bessler was so heavily involved with it.

All of its levers are shifting very smoothly and continuously throughout the 45 degree segment of test rotation. However, I did not do the all important CoM stability test on the model. I still want to do some work with the second modified "source" model, # 1195, whose lever shape is in agreement with those last minute DT portrait clues I found. It's that second source model which I am now very convinced is "it".<br /><br />Another surprise emerged from today's wheel testing. Above I said that there was a single "adjustment" that one could make that would allow one to use any weight / lever masses in a design. I was wrong! There is a precise relationship between the masses of the weights at the ends of the levers, the mass of the levers, and the spring constant of the springs Bessler used. If one does not have this precise relationship in his design, then it will not display the perfect balance of model # 1185 and it definitely will not work. Fortunately, I have that correct mathematical relationship and am now just working on the final arrangement of coordinating ropes in the design. Only four attempts left for me at this point. I'm like a rider on a merry go round who only has one final chance at grabbing the brass ring before the ride stops and he has to get off (in case anybody does not know what happens when you manage to grab the brass ring, it means you get another free ride).

My last minute push to the finish line su...Update. My last minute push to the finish line suddenly hit an unexpected detour! I was going to base model # 1195 on # 1194 which was a "source" model and then begin the final and rigorous testing of # 1195 with the hope of finally having "it". Then, during another analysis of the second DT portrait clues, I noticed something which I previously had not. It was yet another clue that was very subtly there and, incredibly, was repeated in the first DT portrait! I had to follow it up and it led to another modification of my model wheel's levers. So, # 1195 is yet another second "source" model which must also be tested. I now have only five models left to go before I call it quits and, hopefully, the testing of one of these two remaining "source" models will be the correct one that works. Just like Bessler to throw a weary reverse engineer a final curve ball to make things as difficult as possible! Yes, he wanted to make sure that whoever finally correctly interpreted his DT portrait clues would have to really work hard to do so. Almost as hard as he did during a decade long research effort to achieve success.<br /><br />I'm now using a super accurate method to place the attachment points to my model wheels' drums and levers and, while doing so, it occurred to me that there is a single "adjustment" that can be made to the springs at a certain position of the drum that will allow one to make a Bessler type imbalanced pm wheel using weights and levers of various masses. This adjustment just requires stretching the springs at the 9:00 position until the levers there achieve a particular critical angle. Once that is done for all eight levers, they will automatically be counter balanced around the drum and will maintain the imbalance of their weights and levers as drum rotation takes place. If I find success, then, when I finally reveal Bessler's design, this simple adjustment will be obvious.<br /><br />Only five models to go and I will either achieve total victory or crushing defeat. I remain confident of the former outcome at this point in time.Ken Behrendthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09111248107623433638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862207778089432835.post-17344173609408734402015-07-17T11:10:55.795+01:002015-07-17T11:10:55.795+01:00Ah!

(I'd bet that back that far, asymmetry was not yet a word?)<br /><br />This asymmetry of reaction made "magically" then allowing one wight to fall with A GREATER FORCE than what was required to first raise it! This left-over extra being then used to raise an imbalancing weight for 'the big fall'.<br /><br />(Sounds to me like the old 'bootstraps' one should be introduced here pronto!)<br /><br />The other day I was reading-over a judgment and to conclude the judge stated with great boldness of conviction and judiciating force as follows: ". . . for only God Almighty himself can create something out of nothing."<br /><br />As well as all of the preceding, perhaps Bessler's miraculous creation did JUST THAT, and by the means cited.<br /><br />"All BEHOLD: it comes out from Nowhere!"<br /><br />If found actually so, THEN WHAT for the lab-coat coterie???<br /><br />Your second part was as interesting as the first, Vibrator.

I haven't added to it in years and now prefer to just publish my thoughts in book form or sprinkle them about the internet on various forums and blogs. I should mention that much of what is on that website was extensively rewritten and expanded and included in my last published book (which I have not had time to add to the list of ones on my website's pages). That volume is titled "Essays from the Edge of Science" and is available on Amazon. <br /><br />Update. Last night, after spending some "quality time" with the second DT portrait, a clue that I have puzzled over for years suddenly made perfect sense to me. Because of it, I realized that part of my levers needed to be changed a bit and I just spent an hour making a new "source" model or template for use with the remaining models I'll be working with. That source model is now # 1194 and, once completed, will be immediately used to make # 1195. That previously "unseen" clue by me explains exactly why the ring and middle fingers of Bessler in the two portraits (on his left hand) appear to be crossing. It is probably one of the most important clues in the portraits. It is also, I believe, the final clue one must correctly interpret before his next modification of a prototype wheel leads to success! <br /><br />I will soon be only six models away from the finish line. I'm kind of like a race horse coming down the homestretch with an enormous prize to be won. I'm just hoping and praying that I don't break a leg ten yards before I cross the finish line! That would really be tragic considering the thousands of hours of research that I've put into this project over the decades.Ken Behrendthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09111248107623433638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862207778089432835.post-87106074390321346672015-07-15T19:40:03.945+01:002015-07-15T19:40:03.945+01:00Well, K.B., all this sounds fair enough.

Then it's off for a long and well deserved vacation for me. If I can't find "it" in the next 8 models, then I won't find it in the next 800 or 8000 models (yes, I believe that I am that close!).

I did not mention this above, but if each of the two one directional wheels inside of the Merseberg wheel had weights and levers with a total mass of 192 lbs, then they would have been applying their weight, horizontally, from the center of the axle onto their descending side by a distance of only 0.16 inches! That's right, the center of mass of that huge wheel was only displaced, horizontally, about 1/6 of an inch from the center of the axle. Seems incredible, but a 192 lb CoM there would be able to deliver the torque figure I'm looking for. I have to go where the numbers are taking me...not where I think is "reasonable". Overcoming one's mechanical prejudices while pm chasing is definitely not an easy thing to do!Ken Behrendthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09111248107623433638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862207778089432835.post-27409104587670513512015-07-14T22:22:09.677+01:002015-07-14T22:22:09.677+01:00Follow up to my last update.

After I posted the last update, I realized that solving my 50% reduction in axle torque was actually very simple: just double the mass of the weights, levers, and spring constants! However, this does present a somewhat disturbing situation when the mass is scaled up for use in the 12 foot diameter Merseberg wheel. Previously, I mentioned that I was convinced that wheel used a total of 32 four lb weights which had a mass of 128 lbs (two weights at the end of each of its 16 levers). The levers' total mass was about half of that or 64 lbs which then gave a total mass for all of the weights and levers of 192 lbs. That seemed "reasonable" to me. However, if I double it, then that means the Merseberg wheel would have had a total of 64 four lb weights in it (four cylindrical lead weights at the end of each of its 16 levers) that weighed 256 lbs with 16 larger levers weighing in at 128 lbs for a total weight + lever mass of 384 lbs. That seems like a lot to me, but it would deliver that axle torque of about 36 to 40 in-lbs that I was looking for and which was suggested by some of the tests of the wheel. This means the gross weight of the entire Merseberg wheel after the axle, pivots, drum components, and ropes and springs were added in would probably be somewhere between 500 and 600 lbs which I guess could be supported by a six foot long wooden axle that was 5 inches in diameter. I had a ranch style wooden railing on my property once that consisted of cylindrical wooden rails held between upright posts. The rails were about 8 ft in length and 5 inches in diameter. A friend visited me who weighted about 300 lbs at the time and decided to sit in the middle of the topmost rail. I was nervous that the rail would crack in half, but it held up fine and I don't even think it flexed.<br /><br />As far as the problem of the sinking CoM with my model # 1192 is concerned, I decided to carefully review the simulation of its drop to the punctum quietus and noticed that it actually did have descending side locational stability for almost half of the model wheel's 45 degree segment of rotation! So it was a partial success. I've studied the wheel's design and think I see why I got partial stability and how I can achieve complete stability. It requires a modification of the design that changes the way a single set of ropes interconnects the levers. My confidence is beginning to rise again.<br /><br />Onward to model # 1193!Ken Behrendthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09111248107623433638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862207778089432835.post-78810477976111910912015-07-14T22:04:26.958+01:002015-07-14T22:04:26.958+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Ken Behrendthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09111248107623433638noreply@blogger.com
