Scientists know that air molecules move about randomly at about 500 m/s,
|
|
which is faster than the speed of sound, even in sub-zero weather. Because
|
|
air molecules have so much energy, free power can be obtained from the
|
|
atmosphere.
|
|
|
|
I have written a 22 page report which shows how free power can be obtained
|
|
from the random motion of air molecules. The technical report contains
|
|
many equations and some drawings. If you have any questions, or if you
|
|
want to receive a copy of the report, send me a message [74213,2646]. The
|
|
rest of this file is a copy of the report's introduction:
|
|
|
|
Usually power is obtained by burning fossil fuels or by using
|
|
hydroelectricity, or from a nuclear power plant. But there are many other
|
|
sources of power; for example, wind power and solar power. This report
|
|
describes a new source of power: thermal-gradient power. A thermal
|
|
gradient occurs naturally in the earth's atmosphere.
|
|
|
|
Although it is easy for people on the ground to assume that the atmosphere
|
|
is isothermal, the lower atmosphere is actually warm at the bottom and cold
|
|
at the top. Aircraft pilots are familiar with the variation of temperature
|
|
with altitude because they must deal with low air temperatures at high
|
|
altitudes. Gravity causes the thermal gradient in the atmosphere because
|
|
air molecules lose energy as they move higher in the atmosphere. This
|
|
report presents a theory to explain how and why a thermal gradient occurs
|
|
in the atmosphere.
|
|
|
|
Because a thermal gradient can occur in a gas which is in a rotating
|
|
vessel, this report also presents a theory to explain how centrifugal force
|
|
can cause a thermal gradient. Thermal-gradient power can, in theory, be
|
|
obtained from the atmosphere by using heat from air which is near the
|
|
ground. A heat engine can use that heat to generate power, and then it can
|
|
exhaust its waste heat into the cold air which exists at high altitudes.
|
|
|
|
Power generation causes a reduction in the average temperature of the
|
|
atmosphere, but the atmospheric thermal gradient is not destroyed by
|
|
harnessing it to produce power; the thermal gradient is continuously
|
|
restored by the random motions of air molecules. Therefore, utilization
|
|
of the thermal gradient is actually a utilization of atmospheric thermal
|
|
energy.
|
|
|
|
Since the sun keeps the atmosphere at a constant average temperature,
|
|
thermal-gradient power is a renewable resource. The atmospheric thermal
|
|
gradient violates the second law of thermodynamics because the random
|
|
motions of air molecules can maintain it without sunlight. Because the
|
|
atmospheric thermal gradient is real, the second law must be flawed.
|
|
|
|
Exposing that flaw is a main objective of this report because, until now,
|
|
scientists have been unable to find a flaw in the second law. By studying
|
|
the atmosphere we can understand exactly how and why the second law of
|
|
thermodynamics is flawed.

Re: Free Energy from Air
|
|
|
|
Hello Craig:
|
|
|
|
I forgot to put my name in the file. The simplist way to get the rest
|
|
of the report is by mail. The report contains equations and drawings so it
|
|
is best to mail it to you.
|
|
|
|
Currently I am charging $15 to cover the cost of postage ($2.16) and
|
|
photocopying and the costs of writing the report. If you mail me $15 U.S.
|
|
cash or check or money order then I will mail you the technical report.
|
|
|
|
The address you should send the $15 to: FREE POWER
|
|
12137-96 St.,

Edmonton, Alberta T0G-0P0
