Free energy?

enrico.migchels

Hi there,

 

There are several posts on the Internet from people who claim to have found the energy 'holy grail'. Meaning machines which convert energy from one form the another without loss or even with energy gain. What do we do which such claims as there is no one who has produced a machine that is in normal use somewhere by someone.

 

Personally i am strong non-believer of free energy devices, as they seem to contradict the law's of physicsas as we know them.

 

Please share your idea's and comments on this topic.

 

Best regards,

  • Been dealing with and teaching (telecom and IT systems) DC and AC power systems for the past 30 years. Doing so has resulted in much research and study concerning electrical energy usage. Not only conceptually but in all aspects of the field including engineering, installation, problem resolution and maintenance. Having said all of that I can tell you that the time now is right for a national and/or world move to the utilization of DC instead of AC as our choice  for not only the transmission of electrical power but but also detailed use. Along with such a move we should incorporate the hydrogen fuel cell. Doing so would practically eliminate the antiquated AC grid system. With homes and business having their own hydrogen fuel cell ( installed and owned by the local power companies) there would be no need for an electrical grid. Outages would also occur less often. The more efficient DC motors could be used. In home and business voltage levels could be reduced drastically, thus being safer. The economy would get a tremendous boost from the technology needs as we would move from AC input to DC for any and all devices. Oh! and don't forget, hydrogen is the most plentiful element in the universe. We need only use natural gas or propane to act at the catalyst for extracting the hydrogen.  Many will scoff and say hydrogen use is too volatile but I remind that gasoline is also volatile.

    Certainly in data centers that have power going through batteries in a UPS, a pretty good

    case can be made for keeping the power DC from the UPS to the computing equipment.
