re: A Workable Perpetual Heron's Fountain Design

This link is to a video that explains how a Heron's fountain works and can be built. If you notice, the mass/volume of water in the inlet tube is more (PiR^2H) because it is taller. The way something like this could work perpetually is by having the water being supplied by the inlet tube to over flo...

A Workable Perpetual Heron's Fountain Design

Reposted from overunity.com This idea is something that could work by applying what Heron realized 2,000 years ago. It is possible people have been to busy watching the fountain to consider the engineering of why the pressure in the vessels increase. simply put, the inlet static head has more mass/v...

re: Explanations

Murilo, I think one thing people over look is that cars have harmonic balancers other wise tbe vibration from combustion could damage the engine. Like Bessler using a 3 weighted pendulum, it would act as a damper. On a side note, necause Bessler was religious, his using 3 weights could be his way of...

@All, for general information, the wheel I'll be building, if it spins at 30 rpm with a diameter of 40 inches is something I would be satisfied with. Bessler did say he managed 60 rpm. Since gravity has a base value of 9.8 m/s, if a wheel travels at 4.9 m/s rim speed, it's diameter would need to be ...

Re: re: Explanations

daxwc , The pendulum will destroy the wheel if any decrease or increase in wheel rpm takes place . daanopperman, I'll give away what Bessler has said many times, the weights work together. When both pendulums are falling together, one on each side of the wheel, their blows to the wheel will be cush...

Re: re: Explanations

Bobriddle, your explanation about the wheel you are going to work sounds very similiar to the one I'm working at this moment, may be we are in the same boat. It sound complex as you explained but is a very simple mechanism once you have built. I have made about 80% of the parts needed, it is not es...

you know what I like about you guys ? you remind me of why I never much cared for church. of course, this is engineering and you'd think it would be different but it's not. will build it in time, something about building something like this is like tricking out a car, it allows for a little bit of a...

re: Explanations

daxwc, This is one of the reasons I am considered a fraud by the senior members of this forum and that is okay. I have told ACB, the person i work with is that I will be using Bessler's wheel to speak out against the discrimination that people with a hearing loss are subjected to. If not for my hear...

Explanations

The basic principle that Johann Bessler may have been trying to convey in this picture is simple. A weight hanging froma fulcrum has downward force. And if the weight is allowed to swing on it's fulcrum as a pendulum will do when it's fulcrum rotates past top center ona wheel, it will also have late...

Re: Returning back to the fundamentals: Archimedes

In relation with this picture http://www.besslerwheel.com/forum/files/archimedes.jpg I remembered the sentence of Archimedes: give me a fulcrum and I will lift the earth . So far there is another interesting way for explain the sentence of Bessler about the 4:1 ratio. In the next animation the fulc...
