(not sure which to place this in)

One day, if a discovery by two University of Alberta engineering professors bears fruit, cellphones could be powered by a pressurized water system that would eliminate the need to recharge batteries. With the help of two graduate students, engineering professors Daniel Kwok and Larry Kostiuk were able to light a small bulb by squeezing a syringe of ordinary tap water through a ceramic "filter" containing 10,000 microscopic tubes.

Now this is an advancement!

[Judas]

that's interesting...... what would that system be called again.... damn, it slip my mind.... were enough power is produced to run not only itself..but other things...

[Markius]

think of the future of this breakthrough.......many years into the future it could be used to power space craft....
am i dreaming again??

Perpetual motion?

An "over unity" system.


I've wound that if you wander internet links for long enough, you always seems to end up at a conspiracy theory site, or a perpetual motion theory site.

The basic "law" that says perpetual motion must be impossible, is based on what would happen in a perfectly closed and insulated system.

Any continuing generation of surplus energy - which however used, always ends up as heat, would result in an ever-increasing temperature.

Recovering waste energy, or converting additional energy from lower grade to higher grade, is possible - eg. the heat pump which extracts heat from one place, to put it in another.

the theory and practice is flawed..... there are way to many specifics that have to come into effect that make that theory wrong and right.... I do believe perpetual motion (that was the word i was looking for, thanks! ).... does excist....
