Letters to a friend _ Commercial Flywheel Energy System

Image
 Hello friend(s), To understand the potential energy of a weighted flywheel, let's look at how a commercial flywheel energy system works. The energy available is calculated in this fashion.  Kinetic energy, or your power out, is determined by the angular momentum of the flywheel. Angular momentum is mass times velocity times the radius of the flywheel.   We can use this to size the flywheel we will need to create torque from the 12V DC motor to the generator circuit.

Heated Hydraulic Fluid Turbine. Letters to a friend.

 What is a heated hydraulic fluid turbine?   It is a local electric power source that doesn't require burning. The kinetic energy to drive or spin the enclosed kaplan/bulb type turbine derives from a standard hydraulic fluid. The fluid is first pressurized through 2 to 3 phases, depending upon load requirements. Then the fluid is heated to ~ 180 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. This is well below the combustion range of hydraulic fluid. This heating increase the potential energy and the velocity of the fluid. The pressurized and heated fluid is fired into the kaplan bulb turbine chamber. The resistance of the load determines the torque that must be generated to spin the turbine.  The fluid recirculates, to be reused over and over.    Reusable Fuel. Robert

Letters to a friend an introduction

 This is a test message. I have had multiple problems with accounts and access, and wanted to see if this avenue still works. It is addressed as letters to a friend. It is a way for me to share information with many friends. I want to go into more detail about ways to democratize our power.  Capitalism is in its death throes, and it is lashing out at everybody. Mass death is unavoidable at this point. Irregardless,we should try to save as many lives as we can. We can recover from this. We can survive. One of those ways is to break the authoritarian hold on electric power, water, and our resources. I want to show you how to do exactly that. Robert
