So Wierd!

Jetijs

The motor I built did not have any heating problems, although it could run at speeds as high as 7000 RPM. My motor even had pretty worn out bearings. I am going to measure the efficiency of my motor in the coming weeks as I have finished my military training, I will also post some videos.

I have found a guy who is working on maximizing the efficiency of a 40KW motor!!! I am going to meet him next week. I hope I could convince him to help me build a 40KW Lindemann motor! I don't think that mentioning the fact that COP > 1 is possible with this motor is a wise thing, because they won't believe it anyway. I recently talked about this motor with one of my friends in the electrical engineering department, and he certainly could not believe that the mechanical output + recovery could be more than the supplied input. Their mind is trained to work in a certain way and is very difficult for them to accept otherwise.

Don't give up! Keep up the great work of yours!
