Re: Mobile S-Rotor!

Yes, I understand that, bw. Personal vehicles are not likely to gain
any savings from my device. But large fossil-fuel transportation
vehicles could realize savings worth the cost and effort of installing
my device. Trains, e.g., use a lot of electrical power transporting
people, and so do airplanes. Some 18-wheelers travel with all their
lights on day and night. Other accessories powered by the vehicle
alternator add up to more fuel usage. If 20 amps were the average, why
make 80, 100, and 150 amp alternators?

I was not able to find real data on alternator power usages. The
estimates I found vary widely, from a minimum of 4 hp to as high as 30
hp, but all of them failed to state the basis for their assumptions.
All my information came from the internet more recently, but I learned
about alternative power long ago from The Mother Earth News and other
like publications. Most of the 'net info seems to be copies of one to
the other. Very little is new, and much of it is incorrect.

I asked NASA to help me and they assigned some physics faculty head to
provide me with some answers. They provide tech help for 45 days per
request. After a month of no word from the professor, I asked about it
and he responded that he had reviewed the literature and would publish
his report soon. Needless to say, he was no help at all with my need
to know how to determine the power my device can produce, and my 45
days were entirely wasted. I will try them again when I'm ready for my
wind tunnel tests.

If my estimate of 10% fuel savings is correct, or even just 5%, I think
that the transportation industry can realize some very good savings in
fuel costs.
