Necessary mechanical systems required for a
Bridgman water/ice theme to function in an internal combustion engine can be
worked out. It is possible to create the vacuum and isolate and tailor the
actual product temperature required by the using a variation of an ejector
throat and nozzle network.
Some years ago we played around with several ideas
including cascading ejectors ( staging the discharge of a primary into the
throat of another). Suspect this is how Bull of Canada got his 500 mile range
horwitzer to fly. A variation of this design is also used at Disney to
produce the ultra laminar water stream effect. The required speed of
action of the fuel injection may fit nicely with the interesting properties of
an ejector throat when you consider what happens when you reverse the flow and
redirect using check valves. In effect you have a staged ( or multistaged)
"combustion" at the location and time and temperature of your choosing...
very interesting..hmmm.
On to windmills, (costs of compressors
vs. electrical generators). When you
consider how much wind energy we waste every day.. does it matter? The ball
piston pump design would make an ideal project for a company that is interested
in building a cryogenic system because it would be a single ,constant ,no pulse
reduction system vs the existing 2 and 3 stage styles. I have yet to see a
Schauberger type windmill ( wind power plus vortex enhanced ) built and tested.
A combo Schauberger windmill and a cryogenic compressor system seems within the
range of something that would be economically feasible.
On to the harvesting of ocean tides and currents.. thats
a bridge too far. The maintenance alone kills the idea even before the costs of
construction per kilowatt hour generated is added up.
