Not gonna happen. These conditions probably cannot be met in "real life" anywhere. The proof would have been in documentation. If he did any at all.
His only personal mention of this cooling (available on the net and book form) is rife with silly talk. Laurie pointed this out. There would need to be a *huge* pressure differential and ultra high air velocity. Imagine the nozzle tip of a blow gun hooked to an air compressor. You can get cooling that way. And that's probably it. Fuller was great at some things. Concepts. Delivery was another story. #5 was explained by Ken and in Fuller's books. Google "World Game Bucky Fuller" It's dead, Jim..... If anyone doubts, I'd love to see a video response. Ain't gonna happen (I predict complete apathy!) Now, for those that don't want to get hands dirty....get to clicky clicky on the keyboards and do a *proper* computer simulation. Cause this is how (some) roll in the 21st century.
