  • Patent number: 8266904
    Abstract: An energy output device that harnesses the buoyant effect produced as air rises through a plurality of finned cylinder wheels submerged in a volume of water. The finned cylinder wheels are positioned along a vertical axis above the point at which air enters into the water. The finned cylinder wheels contain a set of fins that trap the rising air so that the buoyant effect created combined with fluid gravitational farce causes the finned cylinder wheels to rotate. A plurality of intermediary gear assemblies are alternately positioned with the finned cylinder wheels linking the vertically aligned components together. The simultaneous rotation is ultimately transferred to a torque output axle gear assembly located above the alternating finned cylinder wheels and intermediary gear assemblies.

  • Publication number: 20100095666
    Abstract: FES was created to protect Earth's atmosphere by improving efficiency of electricity facilities and enabling non-electricity producing reservoirs contribution to electrical demands! FES is an efficient pneumatic torque/rpm drive joinable with Geothermal, Hydro, Solar, Wind or other electricity generation systems can potentially increase their efficiency. FES Alpha prototype was tested by Prof. Tennyson Phd. and Hatten M. E. (BSU) in 2008. Dr. R. Reiman (BSU) and Prof. R. Adrian (M.A./E @ ASU) were consulted regarding the fuel conversion efficiency data. The FES Alpha prototype buoyant air fuel input lb/sec. value was 3.639792 lb/sec. The FES system's output shaft @ 1.66 rp/sec. was opposed by 10.91 lb/sec. This is a 299% energy efficiency conversion. It's achieved by replenishing stored and recycled energy within the FES like the trickle charge to a battery. The FES was re-engineered for this patent eliminating inertial losses and could have input/output efficiency ratios as high as 1:6 or more.
