Broli, I've done a few hydraulic experiments in my time. And I've pointed this forum to analyses that explain exactly why these devices cannot work. Nobody has refuted the analyses. Nobody has constructed one of these devices that works, even though they are pretty simple. Everybody who has done an experiment in these directions discovers that they were mistaken.
The unescapable conclusion is that these devices cannot work and the people who think they can, are mistaken, and the people who reject conventional explanations of why they cannot work, like you, without providing actual refutations, are just flaming.

Well said TK,

I am a mechanical engineer with over 40 years in the field. During my career I have moved liquids in any which way with dozens of different devices. Ever since I studied the subject I have not seen one instance where actual observation and field data varied from the textbooks.

I don't know of any engineer either who has observed variance from the textbook explanations.

Engineers are not bound by the rules of academia and by having to defend everything textbooks say, engineers use what works, textbooks are only a guide to us.

However the rules of nature cannot be overruled by fancy postulates or wishful thinking. In the case of hydraulics the textbooks describe exceedingly well what nature presents us with. Study them.

Hi Stefan,
are you willing to spend some of the "overunity prize" in order to build it?
This is just my humble question if you are so confident with it.
The concept does not seem to be too hard to build by a professional craftsman.
.... At least as an imperfect proof of concept.

My contribution offer is to deliver professional blueprints and 3D drawings if it helps.
But as lazy as i am, i dont want to calculate dimensions.
So please put some numbers on it.



regards,
sushi

PS. At this point, I get tired beetwen all the "Religion" and "Science" here.
Lots of people simply dont see the "open Valve" text and just steering at the pixel of always closed valves.
At least, a better animation should take place.

Tk,Hans...It can take a toddler to point out something that you would not have noticed in 1.000 years.

Not in something as fundamental as this in science. For over 2000 years the best engineers and scientists have researched hydraulics. There is no chance they would have overlooked something as simple as this.
