Hydro Differential pressure exchange over unity system.

  @All,
Go open the hood or trunk of your car. Opens easily, Travis Effect.

Here is my take on the Z.E.P. based on the very first post by mrwayne and pictures from his website.

  I believe there are three cylinders that are clustered together in the belows. Each of the cyl. has an intermediate piston or diaphram that traps air in the uppermost chamber. the lower portion of each cylinder has a feed opening of some sort to supply water to it with appropriate valving.  the cylinders get smaller as they stack on each other. Only a small amount of water injection is needed to cause the intermediate pistons to rise and the travis effect will cause each of  outer cylinders to rise a limited amount with a force that is proportional to the surface area that the air chamber is acting upon. As each cylinder reaches its limit the next one above it is fed with water and so on until all three have reached their limit. That limit would be full extension of the belows. The belows are  filled with water from the each of the main tanks which are pressurized and maintain head pressure on the system. Because the travis effect acts thru a very short distance the total stroke is relatively short while the force is proportional to the surface area of each piston. The advantage of his system is that you do not need to inject a large amount of air to achieve the bouancy force but rather a small amount of water to cause the trapped air pocket to do the same work via the travis effect as the the conventional way of using the bouancy.

I'm guessing that a cylinder is attached to both sides of the pendulum arm and as it swings it creates a pressure in each cyl. which is fed to either a hydraulic accumulater or an apropriate sized hydraulic motor. The narrator states the end result in the video. That why that hydraulic motor you see turning in the video is turning slowly and at a varied speed.

Very clever indeed!


I'm trying to post a jpeg diagram with this  but for some reason I cannot get it to work.

Vince sounds good, but hard to understand.
Just send me the pictuire by email and I will post it.

How is he then doing one side pumping the other side and how
does he reverse this ?

P.S. By reverse engineer I meant not to "steal" the invention, but to ponder about
its function principle without the need to sign an NDA.

If the function principle is known a few independant replications will really help
to make the claims more valid....and can prove its validity.

But I think this technology is also too complex to be pirated on the small scale and is only good for
large cooperations or  for larger communities generating their own energy.

As it seems upscaling into the KiloWatts or MegaWatts range will require very large building blocks, if the shown
protoype can only deliver around 30 Watts at its already pretty big size....

So I will rather play with JouleThief or Joule Ringer circuits and a solar panel to charge
up a battery bank and generate this way my own power, much easier and much smaller
ti build...
but to know the principle of the Travis effect is intriguing...

MileHigh,
With all due respect, you are a dick.  You have (with help from a few others) now run off an individual who had something new for me (and possibly others?) to study and learn from.
I am pleased with the fact that you now are being less rude.  But being a polite dick vs. a rude dick does not detract from the fact that you are still being a dick.
Please allow for the inventor to be questioned and allow for their answers to be presented and questioned in a more "Gyula" like way?
Thanks,
M.

You know, I was looking at James Kwok's Hidro (the latest design here);



http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=oV5wFTfsTSs


and it seems to be using the same type of system as the one shown in this thread.


Kwok's Hidro has changed for the latest design. There are no longer air cylinders that move up and down by buoyancy. Check out the videos and new design.

eerily similar to this thread.

Mondrasek:

Wayne played the professional victim instead of trying to answer some simple questions that anybody interested in the proposition would want to ask.

How can you say that there was something to study and learn?  He gave no details, and instead took the "philosophical route" and also played the "dropping big hints" game.  If the guy was real he would have had something to say.  Gravity and buoyancy are not sources of free energy and Wayne's "trick" as shown in his diagram was meaningless.

Don't expect to ever see something working.
