Free Energy?

Steorn, an Irish technology company, has claimed to have developed “a technology that produces free, clean and constant energy.“  They issued a challenge for scientist ... Continue reading »

  • Bah.

    Anyone who purports to have broken the laws of thermodynamics automatically loses all credibility with me.

    If it turns out I am mistaken, I will, of course, retract that statement. However...

    If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's usually a duck.

    Quack, quack.
  • Okay, after having watched the video, I'm gonna have to say that there's an energy source that's being tapped somewhere that someone is missing in their analysis of this process. If I had to guess, I'd go with Occam's Razor and say that they aren't factoring in the energy required to generate and maintain the magnetic fields used to propel the particle. A variation on a mistake that has often left many engineering and physics students sitting around, scratching their heads, and saying, "WTF am I missing here?!"
  • So what, no free energy?
  • True, as the law of thermodynamics dictates that energy is neither lost nor gained, that being said one must realize that there are other factors that remove energy from a semi-closed system (exa heat or friction). With that being said I would have to agree with Codiac on that one, there is no such thing as 'free' energy. But with the introduction of M theory (basicly its the unified wave theory) I wonder what else is out there, I didn't even expect that such a thing could have been accomplished at this state.
  • Ummm....

    Unified wave theory is possible. It's just using an equation complex enough to model "everything" all at once. It will include the laws of thermodynamics.

    This is, quite simply, a case where they're getting energy from somewhere other than what they're measuring or their equations are wrong. Those are the only two possible alternatives.

    Well, other than God himself stepping in. I won't get into that, though.
  • Hello, for a long time I read your blog, thanks for that that write interesting and useful posts.I consider that blogers it is possible to name many journalists.

    Good luck
