Why would you want to? Are you thinking of a d”death Ray” device. Other than creating a straight beam of light (energy) ( To create a truly straight beam that would hold together for any distance you would need an array of lenses, very precisely calculated and mounted, probably easier to build a laser), The dish has a focal point, hard to improve on a pt.
i guess its cool, but he’s acting like a scientist. i’m just a realist. and what grammar did i use incorrectly bro? i said 3 words.
i wonder if, one could place a fresnel lens at a certain vector along the arc of focal points, that would focus the light, even more so than the reflectors did by themselves?
yes; parabolic dishes, have always been my tendency. I was thinking arrange them in an arc that follows the sun, say in a hillside, mounted in concrete, such that at a certain place, for the better part of the day, you had that one or two k fahrenheit temp. no need to devise a tracking mechanism, once everything was in place, if the sun was shining, you have the energy there in that place.
Perpetual Motion and Free energy are totally different. Free energy is hot water on a garden hose. Light in your house during the day from the sun, a cool breeze lowering your AC thermostat. Natural forces are free in comparison TO PAID UTILITIES or burning wood for cooking.
All things cost money to keep working so I guess nothing is truly FREE. LOL
But, when my Stirling Engine is running off of the sun, FREE:-)
are you idiotic? I hope not.
The sun is providing free energy. So the claim is obviously valid.
A sterling engine is also a scientifically proven engine that was used in submarines and ships.
Perpetual motion is also theoretically possible. Our earth moves around the sun perpetually. Therefore it is in perpetual motion (unless of course something stops its motion around the sun).
Read some books, get a good education, listen to your teacher and then come back and comment.
Whenever I see the words “free energy” and “stirling engine”, your credibility goes down to zero. Why don’t you just come out and say “perpetual motion”.
Dan, you said in video that you had PI shaped templates on your site but I found none. There is no downloads link and under the building a parabola link, there is also nothing.
How rude, Spike. Dan is simply experimenting in his backyard and telling us about it. He never claims to be more of an “expert” on any of this than anyone else. He just has the generousity to take the time to film it and then share it here for FREE with all of us. Get some gratitude. If you don’t appreciate the videos then DON’T watch them. I could make assumptions of your education level based on your lack of grammer and punctuation but I won’t. There is no need for hurtful comments. Dan U Rock
Cool, how is the dish going?
1:17 Wow, pretty shiny mirror. Can I use that as a mirror for a homemade reflecting telescope?
How about learning how to make custom mirrors to begin with.
Dan have you tried making a dish out of your solar reflective film and gauging the effectivness between that and a “proper” one. Stretch some film over the end of a barrel then suck the air out of the barrel. As the vacuum pulls the film tight it forms a pretty perfect parabolic dish. I haven’t played with a proper mirror dish but would like to know the comparisons. Thanks for the video
It actually is a boat number or something. I got it from Garage Band as a sound effect. Glad it was nothing bad:-)
ok ham guys what does the morse code at the end translate to?
you sound like an ass
are you?
good luck calculating a formula… lol look in a book. he acts smart. hes so dumb
thats a very shallow parabola… lol
no.
If you are reflecting solar energy to the focus, you will have something at the focus to gather the energy (photovoltaic cell, steam coil, etc).
If you put your LNB in there, it would cook it.
(and it would block the light from hitting your heat coil)
greg357159,
– easy, satelite dishes are focused on the existing LNB, (the arm with the “eye” on it that recieves the signal), is perfectly focused…personnally I would replace the LNB with a small boiler to power a small steam engine…this would work great with the old C-Band dishes.
How do you calculate the focal point…formula?
setting up one of theses ore updayes?
Death ray!! Bwwaahaahhahaaa!!!
lol, no
divide the pie length by 2 by .45 degrees you will get the extra side width.
