Sjack Abeling Gravity Wheel and the Worlds first Weight Power Plant

[AquariuZ]

So sometimes i create a selfstarter to see what happens, and sometimes i use motordrive to work out the concept, to make it selfstart there is need of some tweaking.   The question is, is it worth it, will the concept add something.. Well i think valves and shortening the path is fun enough to look closer at.. So I'll be back! 

That was the point, when I reset the model speeds to 0 and removed the motor... It started...

But... see previous post

You need to take your device video and use the design in mine together http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhskB-0SjKI&feature=channel_page and see what happens    I was on a short break. Got to get back to work.

Hi AB,

Seems like yours runs fine on its own!  The bike wheel in mine is being used as a simple flywheel that will ultimately drive a generator or alternator. I believe I will be able to show honest and sustainable overunity when it is completed. Thanks for subscribing!

Regards,
Charlie

Just to help some to understand the potential of the centrifugal sling force involved, please look at http://www.overunity.com/index.php?topic=2326.msg153063#msg153063.

It shows a centrifugal sling capture testbed and performance data based on Bob Kostoff design. Since there are two connected weights, the forces would be less than in Abeling design, because each weight is being counterbalanced by the centrifugal pull force of the other based on distance from the center.

Abeling's design has the advantage of multiple weights slinging outward in the same vertical plane. It may not be as efficient at the capture of the CF sling force due to Abeling's use of a directional change to impact the bottom right of the hockeystick in the rotational direction to increase the acceleration. But the multiple weights should give it the advantage. Abeling's design is also much simpler than Bob's pneumatics, cam, and lever approach.

@Cherryman,

Can you scale down the rotor to, say, 1m diameter? Now it's huge -- 80m and that interferes with the concept. (see attached)
