Don’t disrespect Werner Karl Heisenberg who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1932 for the creation of quantum mechanics.
Quanum mechanics is what makes the Papp engine pop.
In conventional quantum physics, the origin of zero-point energy is the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, which states that, for a moving particle such as an electron, the more precisely one measures the position, the less exact the best possible measurement of its momentum (mass times velocity), and vice versa. The least possible uncertainty of position times momentum is specified by Planck's constant, h.
This minimum uncertainty is not due to any correctable flaws in measurement, but rather reflects an intrinsic quantum fuzziness in the very nature of energy and matter springing from the wave nature of the various quantum fields. This leads to the concept of zero-point energy.
When the electrons ride on the shockwave of our spark discharge, their position is constrained to a high degree.
This makes the electrons unpredictable, heavy and fast; and a fast electron is an energetic electron.
By creating a shockwave, you are extracting energy directly out of thin air.
Unless you hear that ear ringing pop from your popper, you are not extracting energy from the void.
So be a little respectful of Heisenberg; he is our main man.
There is growing interest concerning the possibility of tapping zero-point energy and many claims exist of ''over unity devices'' (gadgets yielding a greater output than the required input for operation) driven by zero-point energy. In spite of the sci fi nature of these claims (to date no such device has passed a rigorous, objective test), the concept of converting some amount of zero-point energy to usable energy cannot be ruled out in principle. Zero-point energy is not a thermal reservoir, and therefore does not suffer from the thermodynamic injunction against extracting energy from a lower temperature reservoir.
In his time, I believe that Papp has done enough to show that his engine is an over unity device, and it is up to us to rediscover this technology, prove its nature, and demonstrate that such a sci fi device can be built.
It seems to me that what we will eventually need is a commitment to detail because many LENR devices work a little bit. Only those with all the cases covered will ever get to over unity operation and will transform our world.
