I've heard of Siptrott and remember posting information about him and
his correlation to Clem many years ago on the discussion
list..unfortunately, the eScribe archive would have that info and isn't
likely to ever come back up again. A search provides some detail;

The US patent 4357797 of Siptrott Fred M can also give some ideas how to
recycle the kinetic energy of the exit stream, convert it to pressure,
and feed it back to the pump (even if his claims about his device are
incorrect).
--------------------
He has been at this since 1966 with 4 patents now, surely some of it
must work?

United States Patent 4,357,797
Siptrott November 9, 1982
Unified action hydrocentrifugal machines
3264827 Aug., 1966 Siptrott
3434284 Mar., 1969 Siptrott
3877835 Apr., 1975 Siptrott
Another object of my present invention is to provide hydrocentrifugal
machines which incorporate the advantages of turbines which utilize two
fields of energy in one operation, namely, high and low pressure, such
as the high and low pressure turbines of my said U.S. Pat. No. 3,877,835.
In accordance with an additional principal feature of my invention
hydrocentrifugal machines are provided in which the respective rotors
embody my vortex-expeller-converter invention, which rotors operate on
the basis of a universal law which I call the "inclined circle law," the
operation of which law results in a kinetic differential of mass...
----------
The patent from 1982 shows his address as;
Siptrott; Fred M.
3011 Hardies La.,
Santa Rosa, CA 95401
Since his first patent was 1966 and he must have been at least 20 years
old at that time...up to now, would make him roughly 20+34+5 = 59 years
of age at a minimum, so there is hope he might still be around.
A phone/address search for him says; We're sorry. Your search returned
no results.
Birth/Death records finds;
Name: Fred M. Siptrott
Birth: dd mm year
Death: dd mm 1999 - city, Sonoma, California, United States of America
Civil: Illinois
Which indicates he died in 1999. Sonoma is pretty close to Santa Rosa,
about 15-20 miles according to Yahoo maps;
http://maps.yahoo.com/maps_result?addr=&csz=sonoma%2C+california&country=us&new=1&name=&qty=
Another loss....but the question always arises, what happened to their
models and research, usually thrown away as garbage by the families or
estate executors.
-------------------
Sorry for the bad news Oddvar, but its a bit more pinned down now about
the inventor, now for the claims. Take care and good luck!
