Free energy from gravitation using Newtonian Physic

Hello pequaide,

can you please be more precise as this link is just the main-entry. What section are you refering to ?

Sorry; when you use favorites you forget, all the sub groups. It would be BesslerWheel.com, (in my search it was the top choice) after that opens go to discussion groups, then general discussion, then ‘energy producing experiments’ (author pequaide).

Of specific interest to me is NASA’s yo-yo de-spin device. I knew this had been proposed to NASA but I did not know that they actually used it. Also of interests is that they could not get the math right, and adequate performance evaded them, and thus they dropped the procedure from their list of things to do. (my interpretation)

And possibly of interest to others is that I am shifting to more massive machines with bearings. To produce useful quantities of energy you will have to make use of bearings.

Thanks for your interest.

This is a 3400 grams spinning wheel that can be stopped with a 456 grams disk as it swings out on the white string. The white disk has a mass well over 200 g (guessing) but every thing stops spinning just as soon as the gray disk swings out. What form of motion is conserved?

I don't quite understand. Can you post a video of the action?

To model the dynamics of this kind of set-up, one can start with the well-verified assumption that total angular momentum is conserved.  Since the small mass changes its position, the moment of inertia varies as a function of time.  The resulting differential equations are therefore nonlinear, so numerical approximation methods (stepwise simulation) would probably work best for modeling this system's dynamics in detail.  Otherwise, just looking at the total angular momentum at the start and at the end should yield a rough equality, (with a small amount wasted to friction and such...)
