I'm glad you made a video about this. This harsh reality was brought to my attention at the age of four. (My father has been loading me with information since the day I was born. I was told he was reading refrigerant pressure/tempurture charts to me in the incubator. I've been playing with eletricity since age 5-6 (which he wasn't too happy about if I decided to do so while he wasn't around) I'm now an HVAC/R technicain of 20 years). I remember I drew a picture of the an idea using a water pump and turbine in a closed loop to keep the water flowing forever, and that's when he explained to me due to inefficencies/losses that it could never work. ...and this video sums it up in 6 short minutes!

Good example and explanation Jehu. Heat is not the only loss though. If you can feel it or hear it working you are also losing because by by definition you are receiving energy from the device.
@olanmills64
@olanmills64 10 лет назад
Exactly. Any undesired energy output is a loss. For example, on your electric toaster, the coils glow red. You want a toaster to turn electricity into heat to toast your bread, but some of the electricity is wasted being turned into red light. The noise your internal combustion engine makes as a result of the way it works is also a waste of energy. Though you may actually like the sound, it takes energy to produce sound, and thus some of the energy in your gasoline goes into making the sounds rather than moving your car forward.

Exactly, what he and most of the other commentators don’t understand is that the energy is coming from outside of the system (car). As long as you’re producing more energy than it takes to power the weight you’re pushing you’re going to be at a net positive when it comes to loss/gain.

Thank you for speaking so gently and without condescension to the many requests that you must have received. Some of us have owned electric cars and we know the limits of regenerative braking. They can only recover some of the energy expended, and that does help, but the battery still needs recharging when it is expended.
@blainemitchell

I understand the loss of energy as it is creating but, can this be used to extend the range of the batteries?
@jonathanboice
@jonathanboice 2 года назад
@johnnytheprick Glad someone one said it... its not about perpetual motion, its about electric loss reduction or replenishment, and to some effect EV markers do this today with regenerative braking, I am sure the heat is a big factor, and dimensioning returns also, but the biggest has to be wight and cost for EV manufactures. Anyway... I would not say this is a fools errand, as if possible would allow for smaller batter packs, longer range, and lighter cars... and less battery waste... worth exploring along side greener energy production.
@EmbossedVideoChannel
@EmbossedVideoChannel 2 года назад
There is nothing being "created". Wind and solar are being converted into another form of energy. There's a huge difference between creation and conversion. This youtuber has a misunderstanding of what perpetual motion is. In order to have the conditions for perpetual motion it must be a closed system. Neither solar nor wind are a closed system. It doesn't matter if they are in motion or stationary.

I think when thermoelectric plates come into play for this that would help in some of the lost energy that has been converted to heat. Or merely scavenging from the heat the electric motor produces.

You will never fully grasp physics. Even the Wright Brothers bowed to physics. Solar collectors - more weight/more wear on suspension (heat), more drag, more rolling resistance (tire flexation heat). Wind generators truly will only benefit the car when the car is still and there is a strong steady wind. Otherwise you're consuming energy pushing the wind generator through the air. Wind generator - wire resistance inside (heat/energy loss), mechanical friction (heat, sound, vibration/energy loss). We're working on super conduction that doesn't require refrigeration and doesn't cost more than its benefit. That'll happen, in time. If you like arguing about future technology, you might want to look into the Solar Roadway issue. Many say it will never happen. It sorta depends on whether we're talking about the roadway as originally imagined, or one toned down to more doable mass production. Already, a chuck of old Route 66 is being modified for some kind of solar energy collection. We're making scientific and technological breakthroughs all the time. If we could have totally knocked out energy conversion inefficiency we would have. There are 'perpetual motion' groups online for folks just like you. One wonders where you find the time, being so wrapped up in conspiracy theories. ;) Good journey.

@thebackyardfamilyoutfitter7284
Spot on great video on neutonian and a lamens into thermodynamics. I have always wondered if we could in some wayside a thermoelectric heat exchanger on the motors and seal the engine in a self sustaining vacume. I have done extensive r&d into thermoelectric generators and power inversion and conversion systems with my occupation. If you are talking overall car efficiency of the powertrain it would be an incredible leap if we could gain 20% efficiency into a regerative system. As I have built range extenders of drones and realize gasoline has still 20 times more energy density than even the best lithium variants I can get about 2 hours with a 250 sized drone. Very difficult to reliably produce over 30 amp. Anyways thank you for the vid and if you ever need to brainstorm I've built 2 solar electric cars, 1 trike and am work in on a solar assisted takeoff powered glider

@masakela123

I does charge but it also slows down the car. When you send the energy to the batteries, the wheels become draggy like you are hitting the brakes and the car quickly comes to a stop.
@olanmills64
@olanmills64 10 лет назад
I think there's another important point to add. Even many of the free energy/perpetual motion crazies understand the concept of energy losses and inefficiencies. Thus, they think the "secret" of free energy is in trying to either eliminate or recapture all losses, but this still wouldn't work. The problem is that even in a 100% efficient system, you would not be able to extract any useful work. So if you take your example with the battery, wires, motor, and generator: imagine you had magic wires that had no resistance. The same goes for the motor and the generator. Imagine you have some magical lubricant so that there is no friction within the motor and generator. In theory, this set up would actually allow the motor and generator to spin forever. This doesn't violate the law of thermodynamics. Basically, this would be a theoretically closed system with no energy created or destroyed. The problem though, is that you couldn't actually do any work with such a system. If you ever tried to use this magic system to, for example, connect the motor to turn something, like the wheel of a car, or connect the generator to power something, like a light bulb, well then you are taking energy out of the system. Everything would stop. You would have as much energy to power something as you initially put in to get it spinning in the first place. So the wheel could turn for an instant or the bulb would light for an instant, but you can't get any free energy.

@Davidlahall
@Davidlahall 9 лет назад
so explain this- You pulse a[1] coil in a motor , it produces a force Due to the Energy applied and of-course it pushes off. Its only one pulse so it does only so much work for that pulse. But then it spins down to zero motion. where is the extra motion which is not influenced by the pulse comes from what do you call it. if you opt out the standard bearings and put hi-eff bearings which by the way weigh less it spins down even longer. So you call it momentum right?! where did that come from and why cant that be used to create needed energy.
@olanmills64
@olanmills64 9 лет назад
All of that motion is provided by the initial energy. If you use bearings with less friction, the spin down lasts longer because more of the energy is going into motion and less into friction (heat) than with the worse bearings. The problem with your question is that you said "the extra motion which is not influenced by the pulse" but that is not true. All of the motion comes from the pulse. Think about throwing a baseball. You only apply energy to the baseball when the ball is touching your hand, but that doesn't mean that it's continued motion through the air is magic free energy.
@Davidlahall
@Davidlahall 9 лет назад
i thought you would say that. but if you calculate the number of turns the motor made and calculate lets say the energy captured, if the motor acted as a generator on one turn and multiply it by the number of turns you will certainly get more out than in . If your ball hit the ring and bounced out of the court and rolled down the road, you certainly will be blamed for where the ball ended but the fore from you ended when it hit the ring who really is to blame for where it is now[down the road rolling] its not Your energy trying to come to an equilibrium. This is the point i am making use energy out there available so you dont have to input it all to accomplish work needed.
@Davidlahall
@Davidlahall 9 лет назад
that is the point i am making ...we take for granted the "down hill situations" which can help equalize a system. Take humans, they are not perpetual because they were not built for this purpose but still are able to mimic these systems for a period. They though are some birds that stay in flight for months at a time before touching ground...granted they do hit water for food , still they spend weeks in flight using different mechanism to save energy. We mostly concentrate on producing energy and using it efficiently, but "down hill" situations are seldom tapped which is referred to as free energy. Its free in that we did not produce it as part of our power source system but its there so why ignore it if we have net losses to our system. This is what i was encouraging the folks to do on the VW.

This is essentially swapping regen from the motors to a different 'motor in reverse'. Why increase the complexity for such limited generation, when the motors can also act as brakes due to their size? I can't imagine an alternator would be much more efficient than the current system, especially not enough to add the complexity and remove the advantages.

The conservation of energy is very certain. You can't get more energy out of a system then you put in. Also, as far as science goes, there are some things that are beyond resonable doubt. For example we know more about evolution than we know about gravity and the law of conservation of energy is solid. We do not know everything - that much we do know. I suggest you start reading some popular science and you'll quickly find where we know there are gaps in our knowledge and how everything we do know is always open to question BUT it requires extraordinary evidence to support extraordinary claims. Science never has said that man cannot fly or that the earth revovlves around the sun. Currently, for example, we don't exactly know why gravity works. We know what it does etc but we can't explain what causes it in detail. This does not mean Einstain and Newton were wrong!

@HealthThroughNutrition

I can't see why all EV's don't have vertical axis turbines running brushless motors similar to a ventilation fan but not so intrusive to the vehicles aerodynamics. Vehicles have all manner of openings to cool the engine etc, that's wasted energy and as long as there's sufficient wind then the vehicles don't even need to be moving to charge. In areas such as coastlines where convection from between the land and sea takes place most it should be a viable solution to self charging, with the correct design you could have the turbines not only producing AC/DC but you could also fit light bristles for it to also gather static electric and send that energy on into super capacitors and then on from there. Your vw bus is the ideal candidate as you can install the vertical axis turbines into both rear corners of the vehicle where the most air will be flowing as it tries to rush into the low pressure area after being pressurised alongside the vehicle. Science doesn't like perpetual motion or is that really the oil companies don't like them because it's the end of their global multi trillion dollar cash cow industry when it is made because when it is not if but when, it will be so simple a small child will be able to make one. Nature, don't try to fight it harness it FLOW WITH IT. How easy would it be to create flat ducting that runs from the front of the vehicle to the rear corners where the turbines are? Not difficult at all, and that would be reducing its aerodynamic friction on the front as the air it's attempting to push through is allowed to freely move to the rear where the turbines are, the air will of course encounter resistance from the turbine but will ultimately exit the rear of the vehicle. The very same turbines could also be housed in a rotational housing so if it's raining heavily a gutter running off the roof captures water in a pressurised cup and when enough to rotate the actual turbine IF STATIONARY it automatically rotates and doubles up as a hydro turbine. I can't wait until I can fund my inventions and try to change the world.

Similar to how water jets produce a solid stream of water but slightly different because the liquid is a gas and has far easier means of flow rate. That's what's good about this bus, the front is as near as makes no difference square, and with putting direct channels straight through the vehicle is will aide in reducing that aerodynamic drag because of course it's no longer hitting a none moveable driving face so it would do 2 things, aide in charging and provide less aerodynamic drag which in turn will increase battery life because it's not working as hard to push through the air. Just image the front of the bus is a grid and with each section you open is a section that's having its aerodynamic drag reduced by at least a third. Sorry I've not educated myself of the effects you've mentioned prior to replying, just thought I'd make it clear as to what it was I meant and Yes I fully understand that the weight of the vehicle will change but that's disputable as to how much it would increase or decrease with the composite materials available for use such as S-glass fibreglass. Much more cost effective than carbon fibre and because it's used mostly to provide ducting it could work to be close to equal weight, personally I think the vehicle would benefit from that as well as flatflooring it like a race car. It's a good vehicle for the task in hand but there's some creative ways that wasted energy can be exploited. Just got some things to take care of but when I have I'll look into the Dunning Kruger effect. Thanks bud have a good day if I don't get chance to thank you later. Be a gent and do me a huge huge favour it won't cost you anything other than time to look into it, Google Boeing Direct Energy Systems. It's got absolutely zero to do with what we're talking about I just wanted to make you and others aware of this over forty year old technology that proves all kinetic weapons such as bombs and missiles have been obsolete that entire time and still are to this day. The only reason I bring such things up is because my great grandparents and millions of others fought and died to protect all of us from tyrannical extortionists hell bent on financial enslaving us all but the information I've requested you look into proves that over the past forty years governments throughout the world have been utilising public ignorance of existing technologies to extort trillions of dollars from the global population. In short we're all being robbed blind and have been for over forty years, it's not a behaviour I am willing to allow to be passed down to mine or anyone else's children. None of us deserve to be extorted just because we want a peaceful life free from violence but that's exactly the ones we've all been thrust into. Again have a good day and please do be as forthright and courageous as our great grandparents who were fighting a world war to stop what's occurring today. Thanks greatly for your time.

Checked the effect and it's vague to be blunt as it in no way explores anything of what I've mentioned and factually when you have less surface area driving through the air then it will take less energy to push it through said air. It seems as though you've misinterpreted what the Dunning Kruger effect is and how it's not applicable to this particular instance as nothing I've mentioned has been over assessed. With the correct ducting to brushless turbines factually that would mean a lower impact on the surrounding air and then there's static charging just like wind turbines do throughout the world.

+Fatso Currywurst No. That whole concept of "self-charging" is flawed. ANY additional load causes your engine to run harder, burn more fuel, and anything you get back is less than that additional fuel would do. So it's even MORE loss than not doing it. It's the same as when we use an alternator in a car to charge the battery, all we're doing is loading down the engine to get a smaller amount of electricity.
@lewys1087
@lewys1087 8 лет назад
You get part of the power back but not as much as you used in the first place. If you're generating 100W from the generator then your traction motor needs to put out more than 100W to compensate for the added load, so you're always going to lose power.
@rstevewarmorycom

Lew tronics No, you can't get back what you used. Whatever you get results in slowing of the car. You can't get something for nothing. And in the conversion of motion to electrical energy to motion you lose even more to heat in the conversion. No net gain at all, only loss.
@rstevewarmorycom
@rstevewarmorycom 8 лет назад

HI so why could you not have like 2 banks of battery's and charge one back as the draw is on the other back and when that bank reaches expiration switch banks to the fully charge bank and start applying charge to the first bank so on and so forth. It would not be preputial motion but it would be close. I understand as some point both banks will have to stop to be recharge fully but the recharging in motion would extend the distance and life of the battery correct? I am not a tech or anything but it just seams like we can get much more distance this way.

@46ace
@46ace 7 лет назад
The 12 volt starting battery in any ice car only expends energy while starting the engine or running the fans or radio. So after the engine starts the engine spins an accessory called an "alternator". This device creates an a.c. voltage that is rectified(converted to D.C)and regulated to provide a charging current into the starter battery. It is enough to keep the battery topped up and run the cars electronics and ignition.There is plenty of energy available from burning fuel: Physics 101: Energy only changes form it can't be created or destroyed . The car is a closed system energy wise: Gasoline has a certain chemical energy stored in the molecule bonds. Gasoline is the energy input to the system.Burning (combusting) the gasoline with oxygen releases this energy, creating heat and rapidly expanding gases. These expanding gases push on the cylinder and pistons driving them down turning the crank shaft.In a 4 stroke engine after the piston reaches bottom it returns upward pushing the burnt fuel charge and excess heat out of the exhaust valve into the exhaust system; Unused heat is also carried away by the coolant system and dumped overboard into the air stream by the radiator. Typically only 15-20%of all the energy released by combustion is used to move the car forward. The other 80-85% is thrown away through the exhaust and coolant systems. Electric motors are typically 90-95% efficient. Of All the energy put into the motor drive 90-95% is used to move the car forward; little is lost to heat;friction and air resistance (drag or aerodynamics.)So the electric is magnitudes more efficient. Now: If you put 100 kilowatts of pure electrical energy into moving the car and you attach generators to the wheels( like regenerative braking does) you remove energy stored in the mass of the car ( momentum); It slows down. eventually it would stop. all the energy goingi nto the car comesfrom and is is 100%stored in the battery. You take 100% from the battery turn 90 % into momentum; put (say)10% of that back into the battery from your generator; now you are at %10 charge. Put that into the motor; that 10% become 9%(90% efficiency remember ) into momentum. Take 10% out of momentum again.. .9% goes into the battery...... You see where this is going: nothing is free.

Now I'm not going to suggest a perpetual motion machine, as the only working version of one of those that I've ever heard of is the mouth on a politician. Not only does it seem to run forever, I'm not sure if anyone knows how to switch one of those off. My idea may seem simplistic, which would not surprise me, as I don't claim to be an expert in automotive mechanics, engineering, or any other field of science. In fact, I'm not sure how efficient/effective my idea might be, but here goes: Install a wind scoop to capture some of that air that goes by the vehicle, as it's moving forward. In the case of the VW bus, you might need to install it on the roof, as you don't have much hood space. The air should be channeled into a series of Tesla Turbines, which in turn would power several automotive alternators & keep the battery packs charged. Even if it only ran at 25% efficiency, it would still extend the range of the vehicle by 25%; and that's not a bad return on investment from the wind that's going past your vehicle anyway.

Ok, I'm not a scientist, so please bear with me on this. I don't believe I'm trying to get "over unity"; I'm thinking that since the wind coming into the machine is basically free (since it's hitting the vehicle in any case), wouldn't the fact that the device would be generating "some" usable electric current, that it would be considered a positive efficiency? I'm thinking of the setup being used to supplement the normal regenerative processes; not to completely recharge the system. What if the generator were charging a 2nd battery set? Couldn't you then just switch over from one battery bank to another as needed? Thanks for your positive conversation, George.
@jehugarcia
@jehugarcia 7 лет назад
"the wind coming into the machine is basically free" its not free, you have to use energy to move the car thru the air and any drag you add you rob the energy available to move the car forward. the only energy available to run your generator is in the cars battery, if you use up 4 units of energy to put one back into the battery you are at a 3 unit deficit, so your car will have less range. it doesnt matter if it goes to one battery or a second one. your car will go farther the less generators it has to power

They would not extend the range. Regenerative braking does add range, but any other attempt to take energy out of the kinetic energy of the car, would produce less energy than that is lost. And anyway, even regenerative braking is far less efficient than trying to drive in a way that little or no braking is necessary. Unless perhaps going downhill.
@morosis82
@morosis82 6 лет назад
Indeed, the only ways that you could increase range is by harvesting external energy without creating an equal drag on the car moving through the air. As the drag increases exponentially with speed, at high speeds even a sail harvesting side/tail wind would have a net negative effect. The only real way is with solar, as they can be integrated such that they don't affect the aerodynamics, but panels on a car will never generate enough to make it worthwhile cost wise. Imagine a Tesla, for example, with a 500km range. You drive at 100kph, therefore you have 5 hours of driving with that solar panel. You could probably fit something like 500W of solar panels on the car. So in 5 hours of driving, you generate a maximum of 2.5kWh of extra energy, assuming it's sunny and you aren't driving through trees/buildings. That will take you around about 10km in said Tesla. Not really worth it, IMHO.

I have seen a car and bus that uses super caps to catch regen-breaking energy then reuse it when you excelerate. Do you think that would be more efficient and could capture more regen energy that your battery can't?

yeah, batteries charge slow, caps would do it better

do u think its possible to rig an electric vehicle up so that the electric out let is plugged into itself? like ran from the cigarette plug then back into the charging port of the car?

+jehugarcia oh. was just curious. I saw a video where the guy had a Ford ev I believe and he said his 11 yr old came up with the idea the plug the car into itself. obviously it was unsightly having the cord running out of the window into the socket lol. but ik know u cannot believe everything u see on the inner webs. thank utho.i do appreciate it. I was weighing my options as far as buying clean diesel vselectric vs hybrid.either way I am definitely getting away from gasoline vehicles altogether.

@@DIRTDIVER882 in effect.. you're creating an unnecessary circuit which becomes parasitic to the system. In other words it'll unnecessarily eat power.

question...let's say you have 2 separate pack's of batteries, 1 pack is discharging and one is charging from an alternator or something similar and you use a system that shifts between the packs for discharging, this means that this system should shift at 60% only one pack will be charged 100% at a time, could this work ?

@jehugarcia 7 лет назад
+Mike M yes it would work, but it would be less efficient than just connecting the 2 batteries together charging them at home from the wall and driving the car, All that extra equipment and all its losses would make you loose range.

Well what if you add an entire solar pannell roof to the generator idea? Shouldn't it compensate for the energy loss just from the generator system?

I understand everything you said about perpetual motion and the reality of resistance, heat and mechanical friction causing a loss. How about also capturing the heat from all areas in the system and using it someway. Can the heat possibly be converted to generate electricity to charge the batteries? Maybe it can also be used in the winter time in colder climates to provide some warmth for the people inside. I don't know. I am just guessing.

am I being simple or is it possible to flip the polarity on a motor and turn it into a generator? I just remember turning a motor in reverse created current so going in the same direction but swapping the poles should do the same, right?
@jehugarcia
@jehugarcia 7 лет назад
+Gunzee ac motors don't have polarity like you describe but they become generators instantly as soon as energy stops flowing into them, it's called regenerative breaking and my bus has it

I don't care what the fuck they say we can or can't do, I ain't looking for perpetual motion. My car's battery get's charged while the vehicle is moving forward; diesel electric trains motors are energized by a diesel engine tuning an electric generator that supply's power to electric motors turning the wheels. You're telling me that some electrical energy cannot be preserved to charge batteries that can supplement or take the place of the electric motor, like a hybrid diesel electric motor battery powered train, with everything worked out to some balance of forces and weights of those devices fine tuned to maximum efficiency? And like most fools you explain without ever trying to build something yourself or point to others, with the appropriate links, who have directly tried to build such a device itself. Prove just how inefficient it would be by having some build "challenge" with others trying to build such devices. Dammit, a house uses an diesel or gas motor to supply energy to an electrical motor, which in turn is used to run a house which uses electricity to perform all kinds of challenges including charging batteries, if you need to do so. Now take that energy to run appliances and dedicate that energy mostly to charging batteries and put a small house on wheels with electrical motors to turn those wheels. Dammit do it stop bitchen about how it can be done with your obvious delusion to a system that isn't complete 5:06. And dammit I don't have the mechanical aptitude to do it myself, but theirs plenty out their who do. You have 2 parts to your incomplete system. There's a minimum of 3 to 4 parts needed to create a dynamo system. You just have some dumb closed loop feed back system, doomed for failure. Once again it's not perpetual motion that's being looked for, just a range extender fool.

We can use solar energy, motion energy, wind energy at same time to charge the battery, it may not make it completely self charging but can increase range a lot. If I am wrong please correct me.

but could you not make the output to the generator greater simply by changing the gear ratio from spinning motor to generator?
