M Jean Yves Hervouet rote in this page :

(http://www.besslerwheel.com/wwwboard/messages/241.html)

"Mr Costa is a very kind and easy-going guy and, in my opinion, also honest.

I guess that his argued points are:
- The first wheels he built were too small and did not even move.
- Further calculations show that a wheel must have about 40 or 50 meters height to be really seft running.
- He was not allowed to build such a giant one.
- The actual 18 meters wheel stalls after a while because the 'unbalance' is to weak.
- Even if it stops, he is convinced that he has demonstrated a working principle.
- A best choice of building materials to lower friction and chafing is always possible.
- When the wheel is big enough it does the job... etc...

Thursday, Mr Rudolf Wehrung ("9-11 Monument - Eternal Light") gave me (by e-mail) confirmation of all these points. I find difficult to follow Costa's argument. I also think that Mr Wehrung is very optimistic."

Ces informations ne sont pas exactes.

La roue actuelle est un prototype destinée à prouver la réalité du principe et de la technique.
Un installation de puissance demandera obligatoirement une adaptation.

Je pense qu'il serait souhaitable que ceux qui veulent s'informer de cette invention le fassent à la source. Par exemple en allant voir la roue.
