Steorn: our technology creates free energy.
Steorn.net ^

Posted on 08/28/2006 2:26:14 PM PDT by batmast

Our Technology and the Laws of Physics

Steorn’s technology produces free, clean and constant energy. This provides a significant range of benefits, from the convenience of never having to refuel your car or recharge your mobile phone, to a genuine solution to the need for zero emission energy production. It also provides a secure supply of energy, since the components of the technology are readily available.

The technology is in a constant state of development. The company has focused for the past three years on increasing power output and the development of test systems that allow detailed analysis to be performed.

Steorn’s technology appears to violate the ‘Principle of the Conservation of Energy’, considered by many to be the most fundamental principle in our current understanding of the universe. This principle is stated simply as ‘energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it can only change form’.

Steorn is making three claims for its technology:

The technology has a coefficient of performance greater than 100%. The operation of the technology (i.e. the creation of energy) is not derived from the degradation of its component parts. There is no identifiable environmental source of the energy (as might be witnessed by a cooling of ambient air temperature). The sum of these claims is that our technology creates free energy.

This represents a significant challenge to our current understanding of the universe and clearly such claims require independent validation from credible third parties. During 2005 Steorn embarked on a process of independent validation and approached a wide selection of academic institutions. The vast majority of these institutions refused to even look at the technology, however several did. Those who were prepared to complete testing have all confirmed our claims; however none will publicly go on record.

In early 2006 Steorn decided to seek validation from the scientific community in a more public forum, and as a result have published the challenge in The Economist. The company is seeking a jury of twelve qualified experimental physicists to define the tests required, the test centres to be used, monitor the analysis and then publish the results.

Steorn has decided to publish its challenge in The Economist because of the breadth of its readership. "We chose it over a purely scientific magazine simply because we want to make the general public aware that this process is about to commence and to generate public support, awareness, interest etc for what we are doing."

According to their website, they've had over 3000 scientists sign up to test it. They will close down the application process on Sept. 8.

Over 46K peole have registered to recieve the results.

I don't think that this guy is a con man because he is going to the scientific community to test the validity of his claims. If he was a con man he would try to sell his invention to suckers as fast as he could.

Having wrote that, he may be wrong in his calculations. I would like to see some real tests by real scientists.

I read that they have gotten 46k emails. An Ad in The Economist should generate as much. A prototype shouldn't require all this grandstanding though. If it works, I'd buy it.

A wonderful thought...live out in the middle of no where...with plenty of energy...all the goodies without that awful grid...

Or he could be a very successful con man selling to people as gullible as you. Invest now before the results are may public and beat the rush.

So, what if they're doing nothing more than tapping a previously unknown source of energy?

I mean magnets existed before someone figured out that if you spin a coil around them, some form of energy generated.

Aren't we all surrounded by electricity and magnetism everyday; weak low levels to be sure.

But then some whales eat microscopic plankton. They just developed the way to feed on that vast quanity of microscopic organisms.

Anyway, so what if these guys accidently stumbled onto a way to tap into the other forces that surround us? It may not violate the "laws", just found an additional source and one possible way to tap it.

That doesn't make or capture energy. It transformes the mechanical energy used to spin the shaft to electrical energy in the wires. After losses for resistance and friction given up for heat. The inputs to the system equal the outputs to the system. New discoveries do not overturn basic laws; only use them in new applications.

I'll invest!

Me too. I'll take 5¢ worth.

Well, they are supposedly paying all the direct costs of the validation process. I suppose that also entails the scientists time. They are also refusing any and all investment inquiries until after the validation process is done and the results have been published.

Gee, I don't know, they've gone very public, are paying for the studies, which I assume means opening up all materials and processes to the jury, and aren't asking for any money.

If they fail, it will be most public and will probably ruin their existing business, personal reputaions and the jobs of their current employees.

Seems to me that they've at least earned the benefit of the doubt until the verdict is in.

We know how shy institutions are about being involved with history making technology. They probably wouldn't even mention it in the alumni letter.

The method of very public claims prior to verification make me doubt this very much. I suspect, with nothing to back it up but my own suspicions and basic knowledge of physics, that all investment inquiries are not turned down. That is only a image to put forth while bigger private investment is being accepted.

Military has had anti gravity, free energy technology for years.

Umm, so Magnetism has no inherit electrical properties, and the magnetic portion of the equation doesn't matter? When we generate electricity, are we really generating it or just the current to move it through the wires and do work for us?

Yeah, but when we finally build that wall on the Mexican border the ready availability might be compromised.
