Heat is the random movement on air molecules - if you could 'rectify' that random motion you'd have a huge amount of power. Air molecules jiggle about at about...
I have up loaded a photograph of an engine I built out of the 'Maccano' construction system, (in the USA you have 'Erector sets'). It uses the piston/cylinder...
This is exactly the function of "Maxwell's Demon." This Frenchman still must deal with the laws of thermodynamics, meaning that he will never extract more...
A quote from the website is: But there is more to this new process, it is not just heat pump process added to an already long list: *These new characteristics...
Lhe laws of thermodynamics deal with the RANDOM motion of huge numbers of molecules en mass, if you could work with INDIVIDUAL molecules, then the laws no...
It is not a known fact. As a matter of fact, this is the very concept behind Maxwell's demon and Szillard's engine. Please study these problems further before...
We of this group are by definition believers in the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics. Discussions of items which purportedly do not obey these laws are...
There is a paper that was referred to by this group a few months a go that states that the laws of thermodynamics do not apply to INDIVUAL molecules, if this...
Please see the web page ' news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2135779.stm ' for further data as reguards what I've been saying. Clive :-) ... it ... the ... problems ...
By Dr David Whitehouse BBC News Online science editor One of the most important principles of physics, that disorder, or entropy, always increases, has been...
If you read the web site mentioned in this discussion, it mentions extracting the ambient heat form a source, such as the Rhine, and simultaneously cooling it....
We are not narrow minded in the traditional sense but focused on the Stirling engine as defined in the group web page. There are respected members of this...
Must admit - you're quite true, why worry about fancy science when we have a practical and efficient method of turning heat in to power - the stirling engine! ...
The proof is in the pudding. If this device will work, all he needs to do is build a working prototype. However, based upon centuries of research and...
Science is about the learning what pattenrs nature offers. Historically, science has learned about the second law of thermodynamics, just as it has learned...
TO: QSFM team FROM: Tom G. Now that we have the QSFM simulator running, albeit with a limited range of input data being accepted, I want to look at the losses...
Sometimes things (such as the automotive coil) just work without the supporting data. Think of how long the sterling engine has been around without a major ...
Tom, This will not help your model. You can do it, yes, and quite easily. But it won't work for every case you examine and then you will be faced with the...
I think the machine that was made to knit the nylon stocking was invented and perfected at Arthur D. Little in Cambridge, Massachusetts. ADL was the world's...
Do try to be positive Arch. What is your recommendation of what to do rather than what not to do. Tom ... From: John Archibald To: sesusa@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Tom, What I'm driving at is this: You have some very good programs and things that you have cobbled together. Use them "as is". They will get you close enough...
Arch, Your points are well put and represent a quite suitable path to a working engine. And if I wanted one Stirling engine as an experiment in an esoteric...
Tom, Give me some time to get a few numbers together and I may be able to send you something upon which to chomp. It can't hurt in my view. Right now I'm busy...
Clive, Before you decide that Brownian motion and Stirlings are the answer to the worlds energy problems, I suggest you attach a generator to your beer can...
Rick et al, Actually the simple explanation of cold fusion was what was so compelling. The idea had many serious scientists on the ropes for a while. I was at...
