Trying again. It bounced on gmail: Well here's the setup: http://www.geocities.com/terry1094/JC_Setup_small.JPG It's being fired by a wall wart rated at 6VDC which is actually putting out 9VDC with considerable ripple. Probably just a xfmr and a rect. Only the end plates are energized. The one facing the camera is the anode. The container is a teflon coated bread pan confirmed to be fully electrically insulated. It holds roughly 1/2 gal of water with the cell. There was no current flow in the cell until I poured in the distilled water and I immediately saw it rise to 0.8 mA. After 5 min. it was up to 1.5 mA and seemed fairly steady. I'm keeping a log. I plan to charge the water for 1 week if I can keep the cats out of it. There will be plenty available if Vorts want a sample. Terry PS Interesting note: After about 10 min., the only bubble formation was on the anode near the base at the teflon. Aggregrated microbubbles?

JB: BTW, a small Teflon-coated cooking pot, placed over a large speaker magnet seems to be working, as there is a slight expansion of the water level and no electrolysis gases being released. I suppose this is what one wants. The circulation caused by the magnet might be an important feature ... or not. Expansion means lower density - and ergo: possible nanobubbles, right? No evidence of an increase in viscosity yet. We will see. TB: You have to flying sauciers? Or have you abandoned the control? JB: Are you underway, Terry-Joe? TB: Yes, but what's the point of replicating your work if that's all that is needed to make the fuel? Maybe I should pursue another approach. I have an idea. Here's my approach. I gathered the materials: http://www.geocities.com/terry1094/Materials.JPG Note that I plan to use teflon tape to insulate the threaded rods from the plates. I am using a 3M adhesive to assemble the plates. The adhesive comes in a roll and is similar to double-sided adhesive foam. I attach conductors to one side of the adhesive (two conductors per plate for reliability . . . color-coded, BTW): http://www.geocities.com/terry1094/Connection.JPG I attach adhesive only (no conductor) to the other side of the next plate: http://www.geocities.com/terry1094/Adhesive.JPG You can see that the adhesive is clear when the red backing is removed; but, it maintains its structure keeping the plates electrically separated. I then carefully align the plates and press and voila! http://www.geocities.com/terry1094/Assembly.JPG With this assembly, I can test Denny Klein's idea by applying voltage only to the outside plates. Or I can apply any voltage to any and all plates or no voltage to any plate. I should finish today. Whaddya think? Got an idea for a new protocol? Or should I try Denny Klein's approach of only electrolyzing with the outside plates? http://hytechapps.com/ I wouldn't know how to test if the resulting Aquygen gas was anything other than H2 + O2, however. Suggestions anyone? Terry

If anything changes, I will post directly to you to avoid taking up bandwidth on what could be little more than a cooking lesson ... No, please, let's keep it on the list. Bloody list hasn't seen any experimentation in ages. Patent US6743467 sez: BACKGROUND ART Hydrophobic coatings are water-proof coatings which have immediate uses in reducing icing and fouling of other surface. Such coatings can also render protected surfaces resistant to attachment by water soluble electrolytes such as acids and alkalies, and by microorganisms. In the past, surfaces have been protected against encrustation, corrosion, icing and fouling by means of coatings containing polymer films, hydrophobic solid fillers and hydrophobic liquids. One disadvantage of the use of such coatings is that they do not achieve multi-purpose protection since they are not generally versatile enough to protect against damage from a variety of causes. It is well understood that the wettability of various materials is dependent on both the physical and chemical heterogeneity of the material. The notion of using the contact angle .theta. made by a droplet of liquid on a surface of a solid substrate as a quantitative measure of the wetting ability of the particular solid has also long been well understood. If the liquid spreads completely across the surface and forms a film, the contact angle .theta. is 0.degree.. If there is any degree of beading of the liquid on the surface of the substrate, the surface is considered to be non-wetting. For water, the substrate surface is usually considered to be hydrophobic if the contact angle is greater than 90.degree.. Examples of materials on which liquid droplets have high contact angles include water on paraffin, in which there is a contact angle of about 107.degree.. Many applications require a hydrophobic coating with a high contact angle of at least 150.degree., and preferably at least 165.degree.. A gel is a substance that contains a continuous solid skeleton enclosing a continuous liquid phase. The liquid prevents the solid from collapsing, and the solid prevents the liquid from escaping. The solid skeleton can be formed by linking colloidal particles together. The present inventors have now developed methods for producing materials which, when coated on a surface, render that surface hydrophobic. What is meant by 'contact angle'? Is this the slope of the water bead at the surface of the hydrophobic material? (Note: these inventors are Aussies. One is named Jones.) Terry

The details of individual molecules hardly matter; the system's properties emerge from the act of aggregation. When water freezes, the molecules do not change, but the collective behavior does, and the laws that apply to liquids no longer do. Under the right conditions, a fluid can turn into a superfluid, governed by quantum mechanics even on macroscopic scales. Chapline, along with physicists Evan Hohlfeld, Robert B. Laughlin and David I. Santiago of Stanford University, has proposed that a similar process happens at event horizons. The equations of relativity fail, and new laws emerge. If one thinks of spacetime as a superfluid, then it is very natural that in fact something physical does happen at the event horizon--that is, the classical event horizon is replaced by a quantum phase transition, Chapline says.

[Vo]: Re: Bell, Bang and Entangle
-Original Message- From: Robin van Spaandonk Actually I don't even believe that information is transferred, let alone energy. That is the claim of the standard quantum physics proponent. Let's try this: Creation of an particle anti-particle pair results in a dual vortex in the BCE which is separated by distance by propagation . . . sort of an hour glass with the top part going right to Scully and left to Mulder with opposite rotations in the BEC. However, since the spin is anti-evident, the direction of the (opposing) vortices are not defined until someone with a timecone (worldline) observes them. Filters them, wrt to the present universe. However (again), the spin vortices of the BEC remain indeterminate until the observer's timecone intersects with particle timecone (observation). This could result in a non-local flip which correlates Mulder and Scully's observations. :-) Because the timecones of the particles are interconnected in 'yarn space', the spin, once observed, determines the rotation of the particle vortex. Because all possible universes exist (based on observer's descisions - and this requires explanation), but the observer is traveling a single path, his timecone defines the spin polarization in his spacetime. (assuming Susskinds 10^500 + universes) Seems trivial, n'est-ce pas? Terry (not even wrong, I'm sure)

Gnorts, Vorts! Let us suppose that my guess is wrong and permanent magnets are not ZPE pumps. Of course, it is undisputed that the primary source of the PM field is electron spin with secondary and tertiary contributions from orbital rotation and nuclear spin. Shall we explore another possibility? Tests of Bell's theorem have pretty much proven the concept of entanglement and put to rest EPR's local realism. If, at the moment of the big bang, all electrons had positron mates then would they not remain entangled? But whence the missing antimatter, you might ask. That one will have to wait because I have not finished Susskind's book. :-) Let us suppose the positrons reside in Oz.

[Vo]: Rarification of Aether
I posted the following on the Beta-atm group to Frank; but, thought I would get Vorts' thoughts. (to Grimer) In your Principa in the files Stuff folder, you state: Unlike many other ductile metals which neck down to a point, mild steel exhibits a curious phenomena as ultimate failure in tension becomes immanent. A lens shaped cavity opens up within the material whilst the external surface is still intact. The existence of this cavity has been demonstrated by x-raying specimens brought almost to the point of failure. Clayton and I spent some time experimenting to see if we could show that the pressure in this cavity was well below atmospheric but our results were inconclusive. Nevertheless we strongly suspect that a more thorough investigation might well show up the presence of a b-atmosphere vacuum. With such a demonstration the claim that materials were held together from the outside and not from the inside would be hard to deny, however unwelcome its implications might be for relativists. If your Beta-atmosphere is really the luciferous ether, then the propagation of x-ray photon should be superluminal through the lens-shaped cavity. This should not be difficult to test. It *would* get you that trip to Stockholm. :-) Terry

-Original Message- From: Michel Jullian (should be _Harry_ Paul Sprain according to the US 6954019 patent document, not Henry, I have corrected the subject line and added overunity disputed to make the thread look more appealing to our fellow Vorts) TB: Ackshully Hairy would be more apropos. BTW, overunity disputed is somewhat redundant as this is always the case. :-) MJ: Thanks Terry for your objective introduction of my position, in spite of your not agreing with it and of the big dollars at stake. The documents I will refer to are in the public file folders you gave us a link to: http://mysite.verizon.net/vzesfls5/files/ 1/ The coil's DC resistance argument you reported was inspired to me by the rough sanity check Ohm's law prediction of coil current at page 5 of the Sprain Motor Early Analysis by Independent Lab pdf document. The damped oscillation current trace in CH2 of the Sprain Motor electric drive pulse waveform photo (BMP) oscillogram, of which we see more than a half-period, clearly converges to ~2 divisions. This suggests that 2 divisions on the oscillogram scale to 20A (steady state current of a ~1 ohm static resistance coil driven by 20VDC) rather than 2A as claimed. TB: Yes, but your cognitive dissonance is not allowing you to see that there is a large reverse electromotive force caused by the approaching rotor magnet which must be overcome by the power supply. You also acknowledged that the power supply display shows a RMS current of less than 0.06 A, from a video that is no longer publicly available. MJ: 2/ I have a second argument pointing to the same conclusion: the voltage drop of the coil driving FET, which Terry told me was of the IRF250 family, is of at least 1V as can be seen on the oscillogram (CH1). I remember Jonfli on this list noted that 1V drop was a lot for the claimed low current of 2A, and might be improved by using a FET with a lower ON resistance. I looked up the IRF250 ON resistance (RDSon) and found it is in fact quite low already, 0.085 ohms max, which requires more than 10A to yield the observed 1V voltage drop (Ohm's law again). This suggests that coil current is at least 5 times the claimed value of 2A. TB: You also refuse to accept that I have data which shows that there is a 5 V drop between the drain and source of the gating circuit indicating that the field effect transistor is operating in the linear region and is unsaturated. This data is not public; but, I will get permission to send it to anyone who cares to see it. MJ: My conclusion from 1/ and 2/ is that the Sprain motor's COP, claimed to be overunity ~2, is in fact possibly 10 times and at least five times lower than that i.e. well below unity, due to an erroneous scaling of the input current waveform. I have no explanation as to the source of the error though. TB: And I certainly understand your position regardless of your refusal to accept the data. The inventor has actually operated the motor on a 14.5 volt supply without the FET in the circuit. The back EMF is at least 8 V when triggered as indicated by the referenced data, which all refutes your position. In addition, if 20 A at 20 V were being input to the coil, I could feel the warmth of the coil with a 400 W input even at a duty cycle of 3.7%. I feel no such warmth (from the coil). What you do not understand is that we repealed Ohm's law here in Georgia in 1966. As a result we have saved a fortune on power costs. Near the same time we rounded pi to exactly 3.0 which attracted many students to study architecture at our universities. Despite the s(c)eptics, we continue to try to get the motor to self-run. The 3 phase alternator that Jones found on the web is only 50% efficient at 90 RPM. Paul has eliminated the FET from the circuit by using it to gate a second coil which closes a magnetic reed switch to gate the motor coil. This drops the voltage to a level near the alternator output. Because the potential customer is coming tomorrow, I have asked Paul to put the torque sensor back in place (removing the alternator) for the demonstration; however, efforts to make it self-run will continue afterward.

Sprain does not seem to capture BEMF, but still this carefully, and independently measured performance is a mere 25% by accurate means!!! (Sprain) is ignorant of how to measure, and the best (no losses) simulation of his form is reciprocal. (You will find that the rest of the power is eaten by I^2R, and friction - ...it is nothing more than a pulse motor with the added (drag mostly) of the spiral ramp of stator mags added to the pulse motor. the ramp of PM's does nothing but add a reciprocal boost and drag, and contributes nothing to the gain mechanism, except eddy drag of the conductive magnets.) ..(there is nothing of merit in Sprain's design). (This measurement of Sprain's device is doing only useful COP - ... and is only 25% useful). Yes, BEMF could add to the efficiency.

Re: [Vo]: Henry Paul Sprain Magnetic Motor
-Original Message- From: Grimer Let's hope he's wrong - but if he isn't then I think the Finsrud machine is the best bet for proving a point of principle. The solution is more elegant than the Sprain in the cunning way it achieves the different advance and retreat speed in relation to the magnets. This means that only the smallest input is required to keep the ball moving. Also, it will show whether or not the reverse direction pumps energy into the Beta-atmosphere rather than taking it out. In other words it will show that the ball is indeed travelling around a Carnot-style cycle and extracting energy from Beta-atmosphere heat. What amazes me, Grimer, is that I can't seem to get anyone to even go see it. A few people will discuss it; but, I have yet to convince anyone to go with me and help verify the measurements. One engineer used the excuse that he did not want to sign the non-disclosure agreement; but, when I said he did not have to sign it, he still backed out.

If the clip is lifted by a chemical reaction to the same height, you would have conventional conservation. The magnet might be conservative; but, not by any conservative explanation. :-) My point is simply that if you use an electromagnet to lift the clip, the Lorentz explanation holds and you clearly have a relativistic effect. However, if the clip is lifted by the spin magnetic momentum of an unfilled electron shell, we have an entirely different case, a quantum effect. As posted earlier, these forms of magnetism are not equivalent. Permanent magnet work might be an exchange between ZPE and mass, as Robin opines. This discussion is not dissimilar to Puthoff's explanation of why the electron in angular accelerating around the hydrogen nucleus does not radiate and collapse into the nucleus. Terry

[Vo]: Re: Read it again
-Original Message- From: Jed Rothwell I do not know of any experimental evidence that demonstrates excess energy from magnets or springs. Okay, I have seen three. All involve magnetic gradients which most certainly perform work. I will try, one more time, to explain the most simple one: http://jnaudin.free.fr/html/smotidx.htm In this image a ball is dropped from 31 mm and from 35 mm into a curved glass tube which constitutes an inclined plane. This is done with the fingers of the experimenter who eats food for an energy source. The second drop causes the ball to roll further up the inclined plane with an increased energy of 0.424 mJ. The earth provides the kinetic energy. Now the experimenter replaces his fingers with a permanent magnetic field and gets the same result. He places the ball at the 31 mm level of the field gradient and the gradient lifts the ball to 35 mm. What does the magnet eat??? This device demonstrates a COP of 1.133. I have personally tested another magnetic gradient field device which presently operates with a COP of 2.33 and will soon operate with a much higher one. I will be happy to arrange for you to view the device. It is here in the metropolitan area. Terry

-Original Message- From: Michel Jullian Mmmm Terry I am not sure it is that different, doesn't it require work to bring the ball back to starting position, as it does for the paper clip?

Re: [Vo]: Re: Read it again
-Original Message- From: Jed Rothwell There is no energy input as far as I can tell from the descriptions. You cannot continuously extract energy from permanent magnets any more than you can from a spring. It appears to be a violation of the conservation of energy. Do you have a citation for that? I find no reference which says that permanent magnets are conservative. After all, PMs get their force from a quantum function, the spin of the electron. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetism The physical cause of the magnetism of objects, as distinct from electrical currents, is the atomic magnetic dipole. Magnetic dipoles, or magnetic moments, result on the atomic scale from the two kinds of movement of electrons. The first is the orbital motion of the electron around the nucleus; this motion can be considered as a current loop, resulting in an orbital dipole magnetic moment along the axis of the nucleus. The second, much stronger, source of electronic magnetic moment is due to a quantum mechanical property called the spin dipole magnetic moment (although current quantum mechanical theory states that electrons neither physically spin, nor orbit the nucleus). Electron spin is a quantum effect and likely related to ZPE, IMO. Terry
