Keely Outdone?
|
|
|
|
Several newspapers have referred to a new invention by one William
|
|
Timmis, which, if successful, will revolutionize motive power.
|
|
|
|
The inventor is an unpretentious English mechanic residing in
|
|
Pittsburg, Pa., who claims to have invented a machine by which
|
|
untold motive power can be stored or used without the expenditure of
|
|
fuel.
|
|
|
|
The story goes that he has been engaged for two years in perfecting
|
|
the invention, and is now negotiating with the government of
|
|
England, Russia, and the United States for the sale of the right to
|
|
use his discovery, which, if after examination it proves to be what
|
|
he claims, will revolutionize the motive powers of the world.
|
|
|
|
He claims to be able to create a pressure of 20,000 pounds per
|
|
square inch - more than sufficient to propel the largest ocean
|
|
steamer afloat or to move eighty laden freight cars in one train.
|
|
|
|
The machine seems to be simply an AIR COMPRESSOR of the simplest
|
|
sort.
|
|
|
|
It consists of ONE SMALL CYLINDER (six horse power), with a BALANCE
|
|
WEIGHT of 75 pounds, which runs the entire apparatus; another SMALL
|
|
CYLINDER, 5 inches in diameter, with 7 inches STROKE, compresses the
|
|
air into the tank from which the power is utilized.
|
|
|
|
Under the piston plate the inventor has placed TWO LAYERS OF BARS
|
|
CONTAINING ELEVEN DIFFERENT MINERALS, the MAGNETIC INFLUENCE of
|
|
which is the SECRET OF THE INVENTOR.
|

|
|
|
|
|
The advantages he claims are durability, economy, and simplicity.
|
|
Experts have examined the machine and pronounce it a success.
|
|
|
|
In submitting his design to the governments named, Mr. Timmis claims
|
|
that the PNEUMATIC GENERATOR can not only be applied to war vessels
|
|
AS A MOTOR, but can be used as a defense against hostile attacks by
|
|
means of air chambers placed behind the armor plating.

Vangard note...
|
|
|
|
What can we deduce from such a meager description of the device?
|
|
Well, for one, compressibility of a fluid, in this case gas
|
|
(air), is usually done with a one way valve leading into a
|
|
storage chamber. This storage chamber holds the highly
|
|
compressed fluid until it is gradually released to drive a
|
|
piston or rotary device with the idea of providing a motive
|
|
force.
|
|
|
|
When the compressor "squeezes" the air to a sufficiently high
|
|
density (pressure), it travels through a valve into the storage
|
|
tank. As the tank pressure increases through continuous
|
|
accumulations of small portions of gas packets, it becomes more
|
|
and more difficult for the compressor to continue to add more
|
|
air to the tank.
|
|
|
|
One of the major keys is the pressure release level of the valve
|
|
allowing the air to flow from the compressor into the tank.
|
|
|
|
Some valves are adjustable with a spring loaded gasket. When
|
|
the compressor "squeezes" a given volume of air, it overcomes
|
|
the valve spring pressure and the air passes into the tank.
|
|
|
|
Eventually we have quite a large amount of force stored in the
|
|
tank. This force can be released suddenly or as slowly as the
|
|
operator desires.
|
|
|
|
This Mr. Timmis apparently uses the intense magnetic ATTRACTION
|
|
(or repulsion) of the bars ON THE PISTON to cause a tremendous
|
|
increase in the velocity and therefore the compressibility of
|
|
the gas WHEN IT IS IN its compressive stroke.
|
|
|
|
The 75 pound weight might act as a thrust multiplier which is
|
|
further amplified by the magnetic attraction on the compressive
|
|
stroke.
|
|
|
|
With the new super high flux magnets that have been developed in
|
|
Japan, we might have a most interesting means for generating
|
|
very high pressures with a negligible energy input, if any.
|
|
|
|
Remember that the amplitude of the stored force must be
|
|
sufficient to provide a decent HP level on a controlled release.
|
|
However, the ACTUAL ACCUMULATION to the eventual maximum
|
|
pressure capacity of the storage tank can take place using VERY
|
|
SMALL INCREMENTS of compression.
|
|
|
|
The trick is to build up very high pressures using MICRO-BURSTS
|
|
of sufficient intensity but with a VERY SHORT DURATION. This is
|
|
one of the possible techniques which might eventually be used to
|
|
tap the Zero Point Energy.
|

|
|
|
|
|
Another possible means of achieving this is a very high
|
|
intensity electromagnetic spike applied to a coil at JUST THE
|
|
RIGHT MOMENT as the piston goes INTO AND THROUGH its compressive
|
|
stroke.
|
|
|
|
One might experiment by adjusting the pulse width and the
|
|
amplitude to achieve the optimum amount of saturation of the
|
|
coil in relation to the attraction of the piston.
|
|
|
|
Indeed, it is not beyond credence to make the piston somewhat
|
|
magnetic to further increase the compressive force.
|
|
|
|
In addition to this, one could cause the magnetic field TO FLIP
|
|
AT JUST THE RIGHT MOMENT which would cause a much increased
|
|
attraction with a complementary much increased repulsion as the
|
|
piston reached the "Top of Stroke".
|
|
|
|
The addition of a weighted mass serves as a "flywheel" or
|
|
balance wheel to ensure that the piston does not stall when it
|
|
reaches the top of stroke.
