Make the experiment yourself by filling your bathtub with cool tap water. Let it stay there over night and what you would expect to observe the next morning, that the water temperature has become that of the surrounding air in the bathroom, has not happened. Instead you will measure a lower temperature, even lower than it was from the tap before. What happened is that during the night some water has evaporated from the tub and the energy for it was taken from the water, cooling it down. Thus heat flew spontaneously from a cooler to a warmer region - impossible? It is not even unlikely!
By examining the experiments with steam, made by nobody less than James Watt around 250 years ago, I found an as yet unknown property of saturated vapors, by which it would be possible to convert ambient heat into mechanical energy. Another "impossible" thing, but yet not in conflict with any physical principle, also not the second law of thermodynamics (which btw is not a physical principle ..). Again, create the possibility and it may happen. It may, because it is still (my) theory only, but yet far more likely than to win jackpot in the state lottery ...
Just know the properties of water, of some other materials and of solar radiation and create the probabiility to let it happen - nothing much "impossible".
Ironically, what really IS impossible, but believed by the general public to be true, is that Hydrogen would be an energy source. Now, just tell me where we can pump up that lovely stuff out of the ground, just the same as crude oil? Fact is that Hydrogen does not exist in free form on Earth, but in strong chemical bonds only, water being the strongest one. If Hydrogen ever would become an energy source, we must find a method to extract it in large quantities from other materials than water, where the chemical bond is weak enough to get a significant output from the cycle process.
Let a car run on water? Read here, why it cannot ...
An other really impossible thing, which everybody would agree upon, is shown in the animation to the left. It shows two arms of equal length with identical floats on their ends, being situated freely sliding at 90 degree angle on an eccentrically placed shaft in an ellipsoidal tank, that is filled with water. There is no natural rest position where the system would be in balance of angular momentums due to buoyancy and thus it must rotate all the time, generating continuous torque on the shaft.
It should be impossible, just that I can't find the error. Please anyone who can "enlighten" me on this one? Suggestions and feasible explanations will be placed here, as they come in.
If you would be considering to invest in something, can be whether or not to apply for a patent, or to join with someone else in a technical project, I can evaluate the technical feasibility and the market potential of it. I could also be your consultant to assist in developing your project, preferably in the field of energy. However, I only work with the SI system of units, no horse powers per square feet for me please!
Doing research and empirical work in the fields of new compressors and improved refrigeration technology, both in Sweden and the UK, I became the thermodynamics expert I am today. Actually it only started there, many years of own studies followed. See also a waste heat recovery analysis I once made for a customer.
In later years I have become more and more involved in the idea of space exploration, because I see it as the only way out for Mankind to survive in the long run. Nasa experienced an anomaly in the behavior of its first satellite launches, starting 1958, but failed to understand the very simple cause of it, namely that rotating masses interact with the gravitational field (their satellites were rotating fast during launch).
I worked this out within the scope of established physics and found the basis for a new technology to reach the planets. We can do it, but who is going to start it up by making the experiment, in fact repeating what happened over half a century ago and going further from there? You may help to promote the idea, if you can have a link placed somewhere, or use the signature option in your e-mail client for all your outgoing e-mails with a text like this one?

I'm an all-round engineer in electrics, mechanics and thermodynamics and could therefore accept assignments in various fields of applications. By experience, I'm also proficient in international patent law, in respect to composing patent descriptions and claims. Because patent attorneys in western countries are extremely expensive, you can let me do the preparatory work at far lower costs. If you think you can use my services, please contact me.
