Bessler Wheel Theory by Alex

[broli]

I also just noticed wm2d supports dxf files. This means you can make very precise models in some drawing tool, rather than hacking your way in wm2d.

Okay,I did now the new simulation,
but this thing just hangs out and balances out.

Here are 2 pics and in the next message I will post the WM2D file.

I did it now very exactly, so all rods have the same length.
The Center of Mass falls a bit below the axis and then the whole
wheel acts like a pendulum going back and forth...

Maybe I have to change the rods length again.

All blue weights have  10 Kg and the wheel has 20 Kg.

I hope somebody will play also with myWM2D file
and can get it to work.

Regards, Stefan.

Okay, here is now the WM2D file:

Have fun playing with it.
I will change and optimize now the rod lengths and will see,
if it will turn then...

Sorry Stefan, I don't seem to be able to access it.

Even though I am logged on it shows me on this page as a guest and if I press the login button on this page it puts me back to the starting page and the whole thing starts over.

Hi Hans and all,
I have to recheck the permission.

Otherwise here are now all my latest files:

I just made another movie,
which is also there.

There you can see, that it is very important,
that the Center of Mass ( CoM) never goes down,
but stays at the same height and is shifted to the right side of the wheel.
Only this way via the shift and not going down, we can achieve the contineous
turn of the wheel.

SoI have to recheck all 4 parts of the wheel
now, how the CoM is behaving and then try to redesign it this way...
Regards, Stefan.
