    And you can make a traveling windmill move into the wind on a track in
    the same fashion, with enough wind and enough gearing between the
    wind-driven propeller and the cogs driving the machine along the
    track.

    We can discuss it can we not? We can share our thoughts and patch our
    errors.

    Carl has plenty of things to keep him busy other than trying to
    disabuse a willfully deluded person of his notions.

    Cousteau's Calypso could propel it self up wind. Doug also said it has
    been done already even with the gearing.

    According to what I've read, Flettner boats can tack at less than 30
    degrees from the wind, because their rotors generate a net force
    vectored at 90 degrees to the direction of airflow. That's
    interesting, but it's not traveling directly upwind. Only from you
    have I seen a suggestion that they could travel directly upwind. And
    if you'll forgive me this judgment, you have been sipping from some
    tainted sources of information.

    Note also that turning a rotor to generate an aerodynamic force isn't
    something you get for free, any more than turning a wheel to generate
    a reaction force against the road is something you get for free.
    Force times distance equals work. Flettner boats use more power to
    turn their rotors than they would to get the same performance with a
    conventional screw.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flettner_ship

    I'll guess that if a Flettner boat has been shown to travel directly
    upwind, that such movement would have been made possible by water
    currents in a direction different from that of the wind.

    going faster as the wind directly down the wind is also possible.

    http://www.ayrs.org/DWFTTW_from_Catalyst_N23_Jan_2006.pdf

    Going downwind faster than the wind is, by definition, going upwind
    (along with higher surface friction/rolling losses than if you were
    simply traveling into the wind as it blows relative to the ground).
    All the wishful thinking in the world does not change that, and I'll
    believe it no sooner than I see it.

    Insects would be using that what works best.

    If what you are suggesting worked best, insects would not have to flap
    their wings nearly as much as they do. You should tell them they've
    got it all wrong.

  2. a "negative drag" -to suit your search-occurs when an EQ wave passes
    thru your location: a paranormal doppler effect.
    ebergy from the surrounding atmosphereic voltage can be feed into the
    "vortex" producing enhanced effects-like spooks, murphies law, heat
    lightning...

  5. OK where does the effect suck energy from? unless you have a Mormon or
    Ohio xemption, you must identify where the device get's its energy. I
    mean like if the universe has to do it then you gotta do it.

    Mine would be the adventures exemption ^__^

    To me Energy sounds like figuring out how much God there is in the
    device. Energy is such a weird term. It doesn't really exist jet, it's
    the potential for something else to happen. ehm lol? I do know what
    you mean tho.

    The energy to be used for propulsion is coming from the drag. Drag
    represents a constant loss of energy to the open system. Every percent
    of work we can extract from this will be pure gain. Initially the
    change in aerodynamic profile will obviously make it worse then a
    smooth vehicle. But the moment we manage to re-use the drag that was
    already created performance should skyrocket. (at least in practice)

    I would love to take all credit for this as the first person who
    thought of sailing or negative resistance but I'm afraid that would be
    rather unrealistic. We are provided with numerous clues how to build
    this device. Rather then try shoot them down one by one I try to list
    them and look for patterns in the documentation. For example Victor
    Schauberger created more as one astonishing device for [censored]. Those
    disappeared to the USSR, the US (they apparently disappear into thin
    air also)

    " Early Heinkel "T" (Taifun/Typhoon) flying cigar design study for
    possible use with Schauberger Repulsin vortex motor. "

    http://discaircraft.greyfalcon.us/Viktor%20Schauberger.htm

    "Note lack of detail of engine except for 'turbine" description. No
    prop engine nor centrifugal/axial-flow turbojet either... just a
    gaping inlet, ring turbine and fuselage-wide open shaft to exhaust
    port."

    Just like everyone else I can dismiss this very easily, all I have to
    do is wave my hand and say PUH. The usual behaviour of the clueless. I
    see a clear an obvious clue provided here.

    I'm not claiming I could reverse engineer it. But I will claim
    ignoring things will never be a useful activity.

    Victor is dead, he doesn't owe you any explanation where the energy is
    coming from. Neither do you owe me anything of this sort.

    But it would be exiting if we could manage to figure it out.

    I'm late. it's 6:55. I has a potato buring in the microwave.

    Ok. I haven't read the whole thing but whatever your purpose.
    The device, any device, generates heat from friction. So, as you
    develop the idea in fiction writing, recovering heat loss or better
    than generating heat loss takes the writing to a place of escape.
    Escape is a good start there. I'm waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay behind on my SF
    so....
    You are GD Wilde and off course I am also 'GD Wilde' so you, the
    poseur ? are suspect. In fact under the current conditions you are
    decidedly stinky.
    But as I am the real thing, I'll let you in on some reality.
    If you're not suspect then let me ask you what you thought of my first
    reply?
    When I began writing bicycle, The Skeptic showed in RBT and began a
    loooong whoha about this and that. He went away. He doesn't annoy me
    as I have a International AAA psychic rating and I'm one of the good
    guys.
    I have a two page resume!
    Including trying to save the country several times and the planet, the
    planet with a free energy device, a collector energy trap for the 40
    microvolts/meter''' I am what is called a "ground" and I'm
    telekinetic.
    I have demonstrated the effects and NASA investigated. I'm living at
    Cape Canaveral to devote a year's time to collector and national
    security within the NASA intelligence sphere-like a large university
    effect.
    I can use the effect to produce rain. I asked a main researcher in
    that area if he was interested: never heard from him.
    There's a lot going on here. Ever see "THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH"?
    The Mafia hired women, the psychics you see advertsing, to read my
    mind and scream at me thru ship's hailer mounted on pickup trucks and
    vans, one now in my backyard- everytime I think.
    24/7/365 for 14 years. The FBI, Florida Sheriff's, FDLE, NASA all
    support the continuous attack.
    So far, the attack cost the mob close to one million dollars.
    The mob controls and directs the USAF and National Guard fighters to
    strafe me while I'm running an experiment. The mob collects and
    orders 7-8 fishing boats to stand off shore where I'm remotely camped
    so I cannot develop the idea: the boats blow horns together when I try
    to think in terms of a collector.
    Here at Cape Canaveral, the local sheriff allows the mob to broadcast
    CONTINUOUS screaming threats at 140-160 db thru my backyard from 10PM
    to 6AM, against county ordinance. Many of my neighbors in a gated
    beach community work at KSC. They support the mob as does most of the
    local population. NASA workers support the mob. You know, the mob that
    poisons NASA's children with narcotics and meth. Many NASA workers are
    the mob. Certainly the Sheriff's are the mob.
    None of these people are interested in energy collection or national
    security. Yet if they thought, an interesting idea, I had a grip on
    the device, stealing it would be a priority. I do have a grip on it.
    The idea of it doesn't fit into their reality, sniffing tourist's
    [censored] to see if the tourists will give them money. Several NASA
    people in the area have wives and daughters who work as prostitutes.
    All prostitutes will courier drugs for the mob or else it's the bus
    stop.
    These people actually suppport serial killers, drug pushers and child
    rapists as mutual travelers on life's highway.
    The FBI and Federal government support the mob. Worthless. I could be
    in East Germany, 1960.
    NASCAR announcing, NPR, all Orlando FM and TV- when I listen they
    attack me. For example, a soap opera going on in the wall TV while I'm
    at the Laundromat gets totally overdubbed with dialogue attacking me.
    NPR works with mob mind readers who direct attacks on me, Sirius
    satellite radio - jerk named Dave -same deal. All connected to media
    music distribution.
    That's a possible reality when the work is more than a fiberglass
    toilet seat on a van roof.

    reply?

    hello datakoll,

    Your previous reply was better.

    You asked where the energy comes from.

    I explain it comes from the propulsion.

    the engine spins => wheels turn => air is compressed => vehicle moves
    forward

    => ****pressure is released****

    So the energy comes from the scalar quality.

    It's not more complicated as that, if you could explain what you
    understand of it I can refine my explanation. The topic is to gather
    links and thoughts towards this goal. I'm sure the creation of some
    decent documentation would make it easier for those with the tools and
    brains to implement it.

    That's what I think about it.

    We think we are pedaling the bike to move the bike. But we are
    actually moving the air in the opposite direction. This moving air
    suffers drag just like the bicycle. Eventually the motion ends in
    small vortexi. It would make sense to engineer the right kind of
    vortex.

    But one bit of air moves another bit of air and that has to move
    another bit again, this harmonica chain reaction is taking all the
    energy we are pedalling into the machine.

    Please advance the thought and/or correct me where I'm wrong.

    Thanks,

    The Vorticity wikipedia page may be of interest to readers who have
    that.

    "One way to visualize vorticity is this: consider a fluid flowing.
    Imagine that some tiny part of the fluid is instantaneously rendered
    solid, and the rest of the flow removed. If that tiny new solid
    particle would be rotating, rather than just translating, then there
    is vorticity in the flow."
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorticity

    "The vorticity equation describes the evolution of the vorticity (\vec
    \omega) of a fluid element as it moves around. The vorticity equation
    can be derived from the conservation of momentum equation.[1] In its
    general vector form it may be expressed as follows,"

    Dear Chalo,

    The animation shows pulsing, which makes things look faintly
    plausible.

    Quoted message said:

    But if you draw a continuous line to show the path of a steady
    airstream, you'll see that the airstream crosses itself.

    But that assumption, and the animation, are not necessarily indicative
    of how the system might work.

    Yes, you are awfully right here. The illustration is just for
    illustration. The actual ram would look much more like Mr Patterson's
    vortex implosion ram and of course the poorly documented many
    creations of Victor Schauberger.

    http://www.pureenergysystems.com/events/conferences/2004/teslatech_SLC/RobertPatterson/RamImplosionWing.htm

    Patterson says a rough surface is mandatory. I'm beginning to think it
    should even have bumps on it...

    "Wind tunnel tests of scale-model humpback whale flippers have
    revealed that the scalloped, bumpy flipper is a more efficient wing
    design than is currently used by the aeronautics industry on
    airplanes. The tests show that bump-ridged flippers do not stall as
    quickly and produce more lift and less drag than comparably sized
    sleek flippers. "

  19. the idea creates more drag and more drag and more drag
    without creating energy
    the idea doesn't create energy, it creates drag-friction-heat-energy
    loss.
    the energy must come from somewhere if only creative writing, not
    quotable obfuscations.
