To my best knowledge, the Papp engine is the only over unity invention to have ever received an American patent.
The self-powered Papp engine was tested by independent and objective parties and certified under oath to be functional and witnessed to produce over 100 horsepower. The Papp reaction was tested under the supervision of the navy and observed by defense contractors to split open and shatter a 6 inch diameter 3/8 inches thick steel gun barrel when its projectile jammed in that barrel. An isolated and completely self-powered Papp engine produced sufficient power to explode with such force to kill and injure multiple observers. IMHO, the Papp reaction has proven to be more viable than any other over unity devices with a COP of infinity. http://www.infinite-energy.com/iemagazine/issue51/papp.html On Wed, Nov 21, 2012 at 11:18 PM, David Roberson <dlrober...@aol.com> wrote: > Axil, it has not been proven that the Papp engine is capable of performing > as advertised.
