View Full Version : I'm going to attempt to change the world this summer

When i was in 6th grade my science teacher was teching us how electric generators work. She drew a simple diagram on the board. The diagram on the board was at the exact same height as the poster of the earth on the wall. Thats when the idea struck me. Ever since i have been researching. It has been almost 5 years now, and i think im ready to give to a go, partially because in order to do more research i need more funds but also because i have stacks and stacks of revised efficiency formulas and diagrams and research that i just need to condense it into a "sales pitch" of sorts.

I am fairly certain that i have figured out a power source that can create a truly incredible amount of power, it requires no fuel, and has no bi-products. NONE. The power source is estimated to be available at its current usefullness for 6.4 million years. (Estimate made by a team of actual scientists, not me ^_^)

This summer i would like to write a condensed form of my idea and submit it to get funds from some of the "green energy projects" foundations.

I will be happy to pm you the basics of my idea, you just need to promise not to steal it :P I'm rather protective.
On That note, i will be moving in with my father who works for microsoft in about a week and will be living in the washington dc area for the next two years. If anyone would like to help me with my idea and lives in this area, please let me know :)

So you're in year 11? There's a LOT of physics you don't know, unless you managed to do the equivalent of a uni-degree of learning in your 5 years of research. I'd like to hear your idea, but theres been countless scientists looking for something like this for years...so don't get your hopes up, lol. I also wouldn't submit it to any foundations, I'd go to your local university's physics department and ask a few questions...although even they might steal it, if it actually works.

Well, i have done a lot of research, but probably not a uni degrees worth ^_^
However, i already have gone to my local college. Western Carolina University. A fairly good school with good recommendations for it being one of the best schools for aspiring teachers to go to. I did talk to several professors and they did clear up a lot of confusion. One even let me drop in on his class for a week a couple of months later so i could learn a concept.
From what i learned, this idea has great potential but still has a few blank spots i need to fill in. But thankyou so much for the suggestion! :)

J_Pizzle, Pepsi refresh is one of the most insecure sites on the web for ideas. The kid on the commercial who made the green shields for school buses? I have a friend who happened to know him. She got him to call me to talk about pepsi refresh a bit. Turns out, several companies have already stolen his idea and marketed it. He's pissed as ****. Id much rather make my pitch to foundation that doesnt require you to post the idea to be voted upon by millions of viewers O.O

Rasta Magician, so far you few people are the only people who know about it other than my father and grandfather (who have funded me his far). I trust this community not to steal, registration is closed, and all particiapating members are fairly intelligent with morals. :P

Brain, I know it will not be easy. Thats why im starting now :)

Haha. Tim0Supreme0 and i have been having a physics conversation about it for a while now and so far we have two laws that allow us to prove that utilizing this power will not slow down the roatation of the earth, it may actually speed it up.

Tim0Supreme0 pitched some challenging questions. Anyone have any theyd like to ask?

Yeah guys am I right on this? If the Earth is rotating and you rotate something on the pole in the opposite direction, momentum would be conserved and the Earth would speed up right? Like the teacups at Disneyland :p

Alright, but due to the law of conservation of energy, since the earth is already spinning and expelling energy, i will not be slowing its spin by robbing it of its energy. I will only be switching the energy's form to something useful. Right?

Angular momentum doesn't work that way, he needs to be with the earth to steal it's energy. That means he need to lets say jump out into space, strike some thing and come back down.

I'm not as familiar with angular momentum as i wish i was. But my theory involving conservation of energy holds water right?
I'll be researching angular momentum more.
Once again, i really appreciate you guys lookin for problems wih my idea. Ive worked on it for 5 years, but one man can only do so much.

Hmm, I think your idea, whatever it is, is better than my suggestion in physics class.



Feed fishies alot of iron (pretending they will live:P). and have them live in a magnetic river (man made). They swim up and down river for food / mating / whatever. When they swim, it = electrical power!

- energy conversion is inefficient, but due to its nature, pretty much inexhaustible.
- mutant fishies? green activists might have some problems.
- kinda big.


lol.


Good luck mate, I wish your project well =D. and Go change the world.

Friction can be reduced massively. The coil will be negatively charged(electrons) and the northern pole is negatively charged(electrons) thus they repel putting the rig in a zero gravity type enviroment. As for polar wandering...**** me. That's one I've yet to figure out XD

The rig would only be 0g if the force from the pole was equaled by the force from the coil, it would be extremely unstable based on the varying forces from the pole, it's not a steady number (from what I understand)

Also, I don't know the rate of polar wandering, but the idea that you use for 0g would only work if it was directly center, so that the forces were not exerting horizontal force.

The thing is that we can't really ever understand magnets. There is no environment where there is no magnetic field so that we can study the effect of one single magnet. There are too many variables with magnets to get effective data, and as such, a lot of your work will be guess and/or check, which will lead to many economic downturns. But yes, if it works, it could effectively produce a large energy source.

Dan Cardin
06-30-2010, 04:46 PM
but could it really? its like any electricity generator as far as i can see. There is a maximum output that you can do and who is to say that it will equal or even surpass that of what's needed to power your rig?

crimsonwind
06-30-2010, 06:00 PM
hey i got an idea! lets dig a hole into the earth's mantle and put a water pipe into it so the heat will change the water into steam. then the steam will drive turbines to create electricity! and the earth's mantle will not cool because convection currents within the crust will constantly bring hot magma up and cool magma down. also this wont cool the earth's core down immediately because beneath the earth's crust is radioactive material consistently producing heat.

but my best idea is lets detonate nuclear warheads to cook chicken!:drool:

There is a maximum limit. Use the formula for kinetic energy to find the max output. Even if I can only harness 1% of that energy, thats still a crap load of electricity.

is it though? generators today afaik spin really really fast yet because we're talking about only one generator, you're just as limited. Plus, its not instant start up here as it would be in a regular generator.

sylvawarrior
06-30-2010, 08:56 PM
Why is it limited by being only one generator?

Dan Cardin
06-30-2010, 09:54 PM
because its only one generator. It can only go so fast and get so much energy. How fast do you expect this thing to be spinning, and then how much electricity for it to generate?

sylvawarrior
06-30-2010, 10:06 PM
There is actually no limit to how fast it can spin. It increases exponentially. Plus, the bigger the coil, the faster the speed of the circumferece of the coil goes(Please note, the inside of a coil and outside actually move at different speeds). The bigger the outer circumferennce, the more rpm's you can crank out of the shaft that is driving the generator. Ugh, this is really hard to explain without my papers. I'll try to make a diagram soon...

Dan Cardin
06-30-2010, 10:41 PM
It cannot exponentially spin faster, there is a limit. The bigger the coil, the bigger the energy needed to power your rig.

With that thinking(it will be just faster) there would be no energy problems. You know "our" generators already spin in air without touching anything at "crazy" speed.

So I am agreeing with Dan as there is a limit.

Wait, wait, if you are "using" the spin of the earth, you will be taking momentum from it.


On a semi-related note, there was this story about the invention of a "heat pump" that became as ubiquitous as a combustion engine. Long story short, people froze the earth by taking absolutely all heat out of the environment.

I can answer as much as I can, I won't be a help towards extreme physics but you never know.

Also, physics profs would love to steal your idea if its good for their research because it will get them more funding money and TENURESHIP so be VERY CAREFUL!! Even tenured profs might steal a potentially great idea.

By the way, you should film some of the things you are doing to achieve your goal, eg. your research. Also create logs on what happend during a certain day. This way, if your plan ever works out you could maybe release a documentary about yourself and how you "saved" the Earth. And maybe then someday we will be able to watch it :)

Seeing as how I have grown tired of sending all these pm's. I'm just going to wait. I have submitted my idea to an agency, I will update this thread when I get the good/bad news :)

^ ahhww, I guess I will have to wait to find out what you idea is.

Congrats man! I hope it goes well, and I look forward to hearing about the news. Keep us posted.

bump.

Just saw your idea on futurama....LOL
Cept she wanted to increase the magnetic field with some wires.

Hm, I was reading through this and saw a few errors.

As with magnetism. Even if you maintained the electrons in the poles for the magnetism, it would NOT be infinite. Gauge boson's, the elementary particles responsible for the fundamental forces of nature are to small to observe with common atomic microscopes, but as with anything, they are not infinite, neither is their energy. (unless you could create a magnetic field and bridge some type of wormhole into Time-Space where energy and space in general IS infinite, but that's unlikely as modern scientist lack a method for doing that :P)

I suppose based off what you said about magnetism, this could work efficiently, but not infinitely free. But I only know a bit about quantum physics and elementary particles like leptons, quarks and guage bosons, those which are the building blocks of atoms, protons, and neutrons.

Though I am no expert on electrical engineering, I too would like to read about the concept of your idea, curious :P.

Ya dude, your idea got leaked into Futurama somehow o.O, now you might have problems saying it was YOUR idea in the first place. By the way, you never PM'ed me :(.

Can you link me that episode :P?


It's very possible by coincidence they both came up with the same one, I doubt futurama makers are on these forums.


Either way.... if it is an important scientific discovery that will change the world, he will still be noted in history, as long as he has the proof that he had the idea... and even if he isn't recorded in history, does that matter? People these days are to obsessed with Ego, and being remembered. To most people, if you're not remembered, you were nothing. But in reality, the only thing that matters if your view of yourself.

Regardless, I still am very curious of the idea :P.

Who knows.... that futurama episode DID just come out within the past week.

I'm about to watch it and see, though I dont know what his original plan was :P

They made it awhile ago. Everything you see on TV that isn't live is old.

WTF?!? >:(

Anyways, my idea has been passed on to a larger company. They needed funds to do further research so I had to call up my step brother who works for an investment agency. He said he'd find me someone to pay for the funding. So thats pretty much it so far...

I'm gonna just go ahead and try to accomplish two dreams in one summer: I've always wanted to invent something that becomes a common household object.

Do you ever use a public toilet, lay down the toilet paper on the seat, go to sit down, and then your toilet paper gets blown into the bowl? Well despair no longer! Because I'm gonna try to build a prototype of a small flashlight shaped object that produces a static electric field. Simply Let the device charge up for a few seconds and touch it to the seat of the toilet, thus causing your toilet paper to stick tot he seat and not blow in!
I know you're probably laughing at this idea, but you know that if I actually got this invented, millions would buy it :duh:

Hahahaha. Thanks for the support guys.

haha...wow. Could I use it as a stun gun? I might buy it then. And no, I don't put toilet paper down on the seat, I just pee on it before I sit.

It sounds like it could be a useful idea. I personally wouldn't use it, but I know a few people that could and would certainly use it. At most, I take a few squares and pad down the puddles or skid marks. Other than that, I aim for the bowl, and unless I decide to purposefully ride my stick shift, dice, and exhaust hole along the seat I am not too worried about it.

Don't they just have toilet seat covers that are meant to cover the entire seat? Those seem pretty much better..

They have those, but they don't really do anything for the content. They are a thin surface-only cover meant to be flushed down the toilet that often fall into the toilet before one gets to sit on them.

Really interested, downed that futurama episode you linked. About evolution vs creation. But what part included part of sylvawarrior's idea?

The cats make a generator which ends up turning the earth in the wrong direction and eventually completely stops the earth's rotation. They do this to power their own planet, as they tried this on their planet and only some of the cats could get to Earth before the planet completely stopped rotating.
