Joseph Papp’s Inert (noble) Gas Engine

Like it’s said that sculptures aren’t created but discovered, because they were always there in the rock, so Josef Papp, a Hungarian emigrant to Canada discovered an engine based on the properties of the inert gases, such as Helium. It is known nowadays that these gases, compressed and ignited under certain electrical conditions, can offer [...]

Preview of a Mendocino Motor (solar power/magnetic levitation)

We will present a tutorial for making this kind of motor in the near future. I think it’s a great idea combining the solar power with the inertia given by the motor’s movement around its axis, floating in the magnetic field.

Bob Rohner - co-producer of Joseph Papp engine on GreenOptimistic.com

I got a comment yesterday from one of the “guys” who helped Josef Papp succeeding with his inert gas engine. It’s Bob Rohner, who also has a website: rohnermachine.com. He said:
“To set the record straight, I built all the engines seen in any videos, not Sabori. Your article is a fine introduction to the Papp [...]

Gasoline And Steam Engine Reloaded

Bruce Crower’s engine is an innovation derived from a standard 4-stroke engine. It uses 6 strokes - the 4 normal ones, and at the end of the 4th it introduces the 5th and the 6th:
- it squirts water on the 1500 °F hot cylinder, creating a steam volume 1600 times greater than the volume of [...]

How To Build Chas Campbell’s Gravitational Engine

There is a lot of talk about Chas Campbell’s gravitational field invention, but for the beginning I will start with a few notions:
Chas has invented a mechanical device which takes the gravitational energy of Earth and transforms it into kinetic energy. Principally, it uses a wheel having balls in it. It’s known that if you [...]
