Use virtual "perpetual motion machines" and seawater as energy sources.

   Use virtual "perpetual motion machines"  and seawater as energy sources. 


The Archimedean screw can offer almost endless energy sources. 


"Robert Fludd's 1618 "water screw" perpetual motion machine from a 1660 wood engraving. It is widely credited as the first attempt to describe such a device." (Wikipedia/Perpetual motion)


The term "virtual perpetual motion machine" means a machine. That pulls water to the upper tank using a capillary tube. Then that water will fall through the generator or turbine wheel. The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a "perpetual motion machine", that is impossible because of laws of thermodynamics. 

The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a " real perpetual motion machine", which is impossible because of the laws of thermodynamics.  The real perpetual motion machines don't use outside energy. And that's why they are not possible. But machines that use differences in pressure levels are possible. 

Friction makes real perpetual motion machines impossible.  But closed-cycle hydro plants can make a similar effect using the differences in air pressure. The system that image 1 introduces is originally the "perpetual motion machine". 

The system will not operate using internal energy. The lower pressure upward of that system pulls water through the tube. The tube or lower pressure upward pulls water through the wheels will act as a turbine generator that rotates and delivers electricity. 

This kind of system is not a perpetual motion machine. But they can be interesting closed-cycle generators that can deliver electricity to limited systems.

In the image 2 is the famous "Archimedean" perpetual motion machine. The waterfall can be replaced by using a capillary tube that transports water to the upper tank and through the archimedean screw. 

So, this kind of system that operates backward can give interesting options for limited energy production. The capillary tube opens water up using the pressure difference. And then that water can transfer back to the pool through the turbine wheel.

In that model, the required magnets are installed in an Archimedean screw. Then water travels up in a capillary tube. And then it delivers its potential energy when it falls back to the pool through the screw. 

In simpler models, the Archimedean screw is replaced using the straight tube. Then that water can fall over the turbine wheel that rotates the generator. The idea is that this kind of system can produce clean water energy using very simple tools. 

This system can installed in the house. Where low pressure on the roof can pull water upward. Then that water will fall over the turbine wheel. That thing could deliver weather-independent energy. The system surrounds water from the pool to the upper tank, where it will released through the turbine. So this system would use differences in pressure levels for operating.

The new nanodevices can turn seawater into energy. 


Nanomachines that can turn seawater into energy are interesting tools. There are three ways to make that kind of device.


*The device can use capillary power. If there is a small tube in water and the other side of that tube is upward. That makes water flow through that tube. Then that water can make the turbine wheel rotate. 


*The device can put ions and anions into different chambers. And then electrons will start to travel from anions, ions that received extra electrons to ions that released one or more electrons. 


*Sodium that is in seawater can make electricity if it interacts with some more noble metal. In that case, sodium releases electrons that the device can use as a source of electricity. 


Seawater is full of ions and anions. If anions and ions are put into devices. Where there are two chambers electrons will travel from anions to ions. And that thing makes it possible to create new power sources. 


The thing with nanodevices is that they must not produce lots of energy. Those nanodevices operate in entirety. And that makes them flexible and powerful power sources.

Will humans survive the sun's red giant stage?

"As the Sun matures into a Red Giant, the oceans will boil and Earth will become uninhabitable." (The Conversation, The sun won’t die for 5 billion years, so why do humans have only 1 billion years left on Earth?) Sooner or later, all stars use their hydrogen. And then they turn into red giants. Sun is a yellow G spectral class star that turns into a white dwarf. But before that, the sun will turn larger.  The sun turns red and that means. It starts to send more infrared radiation. This thing will turn Earth into a hellish temperature that vaporizes water from Earth.  It's possible. That Earth will also vaporize with Venus and Mercury. Some scientists say that we have only 1 billion years to move farther in the solar system. The habitable zone will go to the distance of Jupiter and Saturn, and maybe humans find a safe place in those distant moons.  It's possible that before Sun will grow too large humans make large groups of mirror satellites or large shields that sho...

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru...
