Sjack Abeling Gravity Wheel and the Worlds first Weight Power Plant

[persume]

I remember the discussion with the WM2D guy at the time. He gave a lot of nonsense reasons, whatever he said did not make much sense.

My suspicion at the time was the very low mass value of the connecting piece. The engineer denied this. I told him that all you had to do was to change the mass of that piece to 1 kg or more and it would behave as expected; and that I thought there was a programme bug. At this point he became rather abusive. I left it at that.

I have a whole collection of WM2D constructs that show perpetual motion when they should not. There are a number of iteration errors, possibly caused by rounding, that are cumulative in WM2D. I think that this causes some of these problems.

Here is one example

I remember you posting about that Hans.

I have been able to find a picture of a vertical axis Ventomobil. It on this video at 28 seconds in.

It can be seen from the video that this particular Ventomobil uses blades. In order to move closer to the mechanics of the Abeling Gravimobil we have to imagine a Ventomobil which uses Flettner rotors as the blades.

Now what in the rising weight flywheel of the Abeling Gravimobil is acting equivalent to the Flettner rotors of a vertical axis mobil and driving it into the gravitational wind?

It has to be the rotating entity where the mass is concentrated, i.e. the atomic nucleus. Under the action of the combined gravitational and inertial acceleration this rotation must be polarised to some extent in an analogous way to the polarization of electron when emitting Bremsstrahlung radiation at near light speed.

It is these massive rotating nuclei which are interacting with the gravitational wind and giving the flywheel the added torque - effectively reducing its gravitational mass and allowing it to "sail" directly into the gravitational wind using the power of that wind.

It rather reminds one of that Japanese art of self defence, Jujitsu.

Did you see this from besslerwheel.com? (see attached)

Here, a working wheel of sorts. It shows the inherent problems when attempting to model a gravity wheel with polygons.

There are many others far more complex than this. And many more on besslerwheel.com (like the above post)

And this one with no polygons, works ok but in the real world?
