free book - Impulse Drive.

That is covered in the book. I believe you will have to wait for me to finish the video.

Lets suppose the black box is shaped like a sphere with axis A .

The Drive Cue Ball is shot out from A towards the perimeter and impacts the other Cue Ball Pair at about ½ radius from the axis A , say at point B.

A total cycle of the cue ball process involves : -

1. Drive Cue Ball shot from A to impact Cue Ball Pair at B .

2. Reaction force at A drives the “black box Sphere� to new position A + d .
The 3 cue balls are doing their thing at B but are not connected in any way yet with the black box sphere. They are acting like expelled mass.

3. The mass of the 3 cue balls have to be now returned to their original positions in relation to the black box centre at axis A .

4. But A is now at A+d and B is now at a corresponding B+d , so the combined masses of the three cue balls have to be accelerated to their new positions at A+d and B+d

>>I suspect that the force required to do this will just exactly cancel the free force obtained in the cue ball collision .


Does this make any sense ? I don’t think I am up to demonstrating this mathematically because I just plain don’t trust me with numbers .

Would somebody else like to have a go ?

Did you get a copy of the book, Art?

No I’m afraid not I didn‘t get to download the book . The only thing that I was able to access through the link on 25th March was a picture of the cue ball and arrows , and information about the Kindle .

This is probably a problem on my end since I access the internet by means of a satellite dish which doesn’t allow me a great deal of download capacity or speed .

That is one of my major problems , I only have the facility to view a small proportion of U tube links given in other posts on the forum , which means I am usually “travelling blind� on the subject matter of many of the posts of some of the forum members .

It would be a great benefit to me if posters could summarise the contents of a video in words so that I could make a decision whether or not to expend over an hour to watch a ten minute video or not .

In relation to the subject of the post above , I presume you must have discussed this point in the book . I have been following your reasoning by means of your posts and didn’t notice it mentioned there. I can’t help feeling it’s a critical consideration in whether there is a directional impulse in this system .

[Kirk]

there is a directional impulse. BTW my demo model uses a voice coil transducer which is the preferred method.

Edit:
Art, email me and we can discuss what we can do to get you a copy.

I hope it is better than the book!

Thanks Kirk I've just emailed you .

Thanks Kirk, got the copy of the book you sent .

Back in the dim mists of time in a previous Universe I knew a kid in his early teens whose education required the submission of a Science project “next week �. As is the way with many of these educational enterprises his father ( me) , was required by his mother (the keeper of peace ) to get involved in the organisation and development of the project so that it could be submitted on time .Since all the hard work of deciding what the project would be had taken place over the previous few months , and since my current project at the time of solving the worlds energy problems was almost completed it seemed like a reasonable ask .

The project was none other than an impulse drive !

Anyway after non stop around the clock feverish activity over the period of a week and a half , a POP was designed and built . It consisted of a one inch bar magnet (pre Neodymium magnet days however) rotating on a disc ( with the magnet slotted in a channel on the disc ) . This setup allowed the magnets North Pole to be repelled by an electromagnet once every rotation . The disk was spun with a small electric motor and the electromagnet was commuted (through the axle of the disk) so that every time the permanent magnet presented its North pole to the electromagnet it was repelled across the diameter of the disc. The permanent magnet was reset to its original position as it spun on the disc by another permanent magnet's South pole set at 90 degrees to the direction of the impulse .

The whole caboodle was constructed , mounted on wheels and tested just prior to submission time .

While the outcome didn’t really satisfy the ‘Research Director and Entrepreneur’ (whose project this was ) it impressed me in that although it looked like a stripped down washing machine spin drier on wheels and acted a bit like a demented frog , it did seem to have an impulse in the preferred direction when powered up .

The 'Research Director and Entrepreneur' decided that he wasn’t going to pursue this project since it seemed to adequately satisfy the demands of the educational system as it stood ( and because “ we could have saved ourselves some time by just submitting our washing machine on spin cycle � ).

I never pursued the project because the next month I knew I would be in possession of a limitless free energy device and I would then be able to hire a few PhDs to continue the Research in this interesting area. [And I still intend to do that next month as soon as I have the POP for my current wheel finished ( the current one is a ‘for sure for sure and a half’ ! ) ]

Your design Kirk is a lot more sophisticated than what was attempted above and I would recommend a build. The only arbiter .

I think there is definitely something hiding in impulse manipulation . Force vectors are a much under -analysed area IMO .

[Kirk]

Not sure I see any asymmetry in that design. Wheeled vehicles can be driven in one direction using friction, stiction and jerk. That wont work if it is free of stiction such as suspended in air.

[Art]

.

I agree . Even being suspended is not good enough , it would need to be tested in free fall .

.

[Kirk]

stray currents I suppose could be a problem but motion of an indoor balloon would impress me more than a wheeled platform.

I think the thruster lends itself to replacing a trolling motor. Certainly would be weed proof.
