Global Energy
Technologies - Bladeless Disk, Vortex and Implosion Technologies. Our
turbines, pumps and power systems
are based on
Nikola Tesla's original designs. Our prototype units have confirmed
historical claims, and,
in our opinion (and
third-party testing and validations), have become the
"most simple rotary engines" yet designed. We have improved on
Tesla's original design by incorporating the vortex and implosion
designs pioneered by yet another of history's forgotten figures, namely -
Viktor Schauberger. Poster/Rendering, left,
Frank Germano, President, Global Energy Technologies, Inc.
To paraphrase Tesla; "Suppose someone should discover a new mechanical principle...something
as fundamental as James Watt's discovery of the expansive power of
steam, by the use of which it
became possible to build a motor that would give ten horse power for
every pound of the engine's weight? A motor so simple that a novice in
mechanics could construct it and so elemental that it could not
possibly get out of repair. Then suppose that this motor could be run
forward or backward at will, that it could be used as either an engine
or a pump, that it cost almost nothing to build as compared with any
other known form of engine, that it utilized a larger percentage of the
available power than any existing machine, and, finally, that it would
operate with gas, steam, compressed air or water, any one of them, as
its driving power..."
Frank Germano
is now concentrating his research work
on distinct product lines: The MagneGas waste-to-energy power plants,
the Water-powered Schauberger-based power plants, and, my pet project -
the Tesla COMPRESSED AIR powered vehicle. Yep...a car or truck that is
run on compressed AIR, alone.

Professional
Engineering Consultation Services; Frank Germano, Guy Letourneau,
P.E. and Larry Ortega, P.E., will offer detailed, comprehensive
engineering analysis and consultation services to your corporation or
company. Where our bladeless disk, vortex, or implosion technologies
can be implemented and be of benefit, we will render a detailed
analysis for your review. Consultation fees may vary, but are
generally $120.00 per hour,
per person, plus expenses (travel and accommodations).
We can also give detailed consultation and analysis for the MagneGas
Total and Linear Recyclers - a total waste-to-energy remediation
system. Municipalities, towns, and cities can take their existing raw
sewage, and their landfill refuse, and feed it into a MagneGas Recycler
- either to directly create MagneGas for resale, or to power
conventional power turbines for the creation of electricity. Your town,
city or municipality now has zero waste, and the existing sewage or
landfill waste has been converted to a useable, totally environmentally
sustainable and friendly MagneGas product. 100% biologically sound
living.

Complete water transport and
"revitalizing" technologies,
incorporating Schauberger's whorle-pipe, with power systems and pump
designs from Nikola Tesla. It is a known fact that within the next
decade, clean, potable drinking water will be in scarce supply. With environmental contamination of our drinking
water and the water table continuing at its present rate, within the
next decade, it is quite probably that clean safe drinking water will
be in such rare quantities, and high demand, to be as valuable as gold
per volume. With our systems, we can either decontaminate polluted water
supplies, or, create potable drinking water and energize it, directly.
With this same basic system, we can effectively supply all the necessary
electrical output for the entire United States - all based on just one of
Schauberger's many inventions - see
Power From The
Earth's Oceans.
-
Tesla and Schauberger based implosion/vortex engines
- these engines operate on the naturalesque principals of implosion. They are extremely efficient
and will produce 9 times more power output than required to operate,
initially. The engine's designs are based on Viktor Schauberger's
"Repulsine" and combine the operational characteristics of Nikola
Tesla's revolutionary bladeless disk turbine. We call this system "InVAID";
Induced Vortex Accelerated Implosion Drive.
The fuel? Atmospheric air...and nothing else. Investor interest is
welcome.

"Off-Grid" Bio-Sphere Housing Design project:
Live Large...Leave No Footprint™. By
teaming up with my good friend, acclaimed Architect
Charles G. Woods, AIA, we will design homes for select individuals
wishing to live totally 100% off the utility grid. The first step -the
client meets Charles and we will work together in formulating the
preliminary design for your new home. Once the architectural design has been
decided upon and approved, I will step in and offer engineering services to complete the
off-grid capabilities of the new home.
We offer Solar, Wind, and Water Power, with conventional, standardized technologies,
and further, add whole-house water filtration and water energizing units,
Schauberger-based Whorle Pipe plumbing, Grey Water recycling, Terra
Cotta Water
Storage Units (ala Schauberger), Composting Toilets, Active
Bio-Sustainable Greenery
(indoor trees and plants specifically picked to work with the indoor
air environment), Passive Solar Heating/glazing, HTM - High Thermal Mass
storage (walls and foundation), and create a 100%
self-sustaining, off-grid home.
We can also incorporate any number of design modifications to
accommodate for local disaster-prone areas, such as coastline sites,
mountain sites, earthquake prone sites, and any other features the new
homeowner may require based on local and state codes. If you decide to
connect to the local electric utility, you will invariably be treated
to the joy of receiving a check from the utility, every month, as your
home will generate more electricity than it uses - thus the utility
will buy back the excess electricity.

Introduction of Bio-waste - to - Energy & Waste
Coal - to - Energy conversion plants - Global Energy Technologies, Inc. has
formed joint ventures between several key companies and is packaging an
incredible system - an
entire waste remediation and bio-waste to energy package. We are also packaging
a Waste Coal to Energy System specifically targeted at northeastern
Pennsylvania. GET, Inc. is now
arranging meetings with prospective clients and interested municipalities in the north eastern US, starting with
Pennsylvania. This technology centers around a complete waste-to-energy and
waste coal to energy conversion and processing system.
This packaged plug-n-play system will be able to take all municipal and farm
sewage and convert it instantly into a gas - MagneGas - used for powering a
conventional turbine/generator yielding between 100 kW and 2 megaW, depending on
the total liquid flow. The output from the recycler is MagneGas, and pure, EPA
certified, clean drinking water. Our other systems will take all forms of
bio-waste, landfill refuse, and waste coal, pulverize it down to a powder, and
insert into the MagneGas recycler.
If the entire area between Carbondale PA, to Wilkes-Barre PA were utilized, there
is enough available waste resources to supply power to the entire eastern coast
of the United States.
Benefits are obvious - lower overall electric bills, the use of MagneGas
directly into automobiles and trucks capable of handling bio-fuels and/or
natural gas, lower heating bills, etc. The beauty of this process is that all
this energy will come directly from waste resources, which are abundant in the
area (waste anthracite coal, predominantly). This same system can then be
implemented across the United States, effortlessly. Any town, city, or
municipality with an existing sewage treatment plant can convert directly to our
MagneGas Recycler technology - instead of treated sewage, now you will have no
waste, clean water as an output, and abundant energy - directly from the
otherwise useless waste - and (basically) free electricity.
As stated
above, we offer a detailed professional Engineering Consultation service in this
particular area. Our engineering fee is a humble $65.00 per hour, per person, plus normal
travel and accommodations expenses.
Contact me for
further details. email: frank @ germano.com.
Let me sum this up for you - with our current gasoline prices approaching the
$4.00 per gallon mark, we offer a comprehensive solution. This technology is
available NOW. Anywhere in the United States (or the rest of the planet, for
that matter!) - anywhere - we simply tie into your town's or city's existing
sewer lines. This raw sewage, plus other bio source material, is converted to MagneGas. No further
waste treatment is necessary. No sewer treatment plant. No disposal of treated sewage. It is
all done away with. The MagneGas is then used to run an electrical generating
system. That electricity is then sold to your local electric utility, at a
vastly lower cost, and the savings are then reflected in your town's or city's
electric bill. That means that the average person pays LESS for his/her
individual homeowner's or company's electric
bill every month. You quite simply will pay MUCH LESS for your electricity. This
also now makes owning and operating an electric vehicle possible, and an
attractive alternative to an internal combustion vehicle.

Tesla Turbine AIR POWERED vehicle. Ok, not
hooked on electric vehicle technology??? Forget
hydrogen fuel cells. Nice concept, although extremely expensive, and ultimately
flawed from the start. Yes...you run a vehicle from Hydrogen gas. Yes...the
output (what comes out of your "exhaust") is water condensate. But, you've now
used one heck of allot of energy to get there, and you have also burned up an
extensive amount of oxygen in the combustion process. Not too bright. A
COMPRESSED AIR POWERED car has absolutely NO POLLUTION. Zero emissions. ZIP. A standard air
compressor fills your car. What drives the car? COMPRESSED AIR. With the extreme
durability, and virtually zero maintenance of a Tesla Turbine/Pump, your car
will "live" forever, and what comes out the pipe - AIR. Simple. The MDI
compressed air powered car from France, was our inspiration...we have updated
the concept by using the good old American-made Tesla Turbine and Pump. Cost
from concept to full production, commercially viable vehicle - ? - under two
million dollars, US. There has got to be some businessman, sports star, rock
star or movie star out there with enough guts and common sense to fund this
one...their certainly seems to be enough hot air...and it ain't all commin' out
of politicians, alone. lol.

Global Energy Technologies, has designed the next
generation of powerful, efficient implosion engines and pumping systems.
|
|
We call this revolutionary engine, a "thermodynamic
transformer" or BDT as this is a more proper name for the device; the Tesla, Bladeless Boundary Disk Turbine - was originally developed
in the early 1900's. These engines, powered by steam, or any
combustible fuel, such as methane, natural gas, propane, gasoline,
diesel, or hydrogen, or even flowing water from rivers or from an
ocean's tides, offer an incredible advantage over conventional IC
engines. They are inexpensive, extremely efficient, require
virtually no maintenance, and will run in environments where other
engines, would, quite simply - fail. The Tesla Turbine and Tesla Pump
function on the principles of adhesion and viscosity, or
boundary layer drag. The Tesla Turbine itself, is a very
simple device, consisting of basically, a number of very
thin disks, mounted on a shaft, with their centers cut out
in sections...this assembly is then enclosed in an air tight
case. Pure simplicity.
Such a machine is a thermodynamic
transformer of an activity surpassing, by far, that of any other prime
mover, it being demonstrated in practice that each single disk (i.e.
this is why it is called bladeless) of the rotor is capable
of performing as much work as a whole bucket-wheel of a conventional
turbine. Besides, a number of other advantages,
equally important, make it especially adapted for operation as an
internal combustion motor. Please note: the turbine is nothing more
than an efficient energy transformer - it is NOT an engine, in and of
itself - it needs a form of motive impulse (power), i.e. steam or
pressure and velocity from a combustion source - to operate.
With our
Thermodynamic Transformer (BDT)
engine design, our Tesla/Schauberger type Pumping system - the
Centrifugal Molecular Implosion Turbine
® (CMIT),
"Fresh-Cool®" Air conditioning and Heat-Pump Systems, and, our
revolutionary
InVAID® (Vortex Accelerated Implosion Drive) Systems, we are in a position to offer
GLOBAL
energy solutions. All of our systems use environmentally sensible and
sustainable technology.

Applications and Systems
"Just what is
your new invention?" I asked. "I have accomplished what
mechanical engineers have been dreaming about ever since the invention
of steam power," replied Dr. Tesla. "That is the perfect rotary
engine..." Nikola Tesla, 1911

As anyone who reads today's
headlines, or watches a Television newscast , one does not
need to look far to realize that our Nation is in an
immediate energy crisis. This is not only happening
in the United States, but appears World-Wide. We have relied
on outdated forms of prime movers and inefficient forms of
power generation and supply for nearly a century. The
technology, in the form of the original Tesla Bladeless
Boundary Disk Turbine, was applicable in Tesla's time...it
is not only beneficial, but may be critical to implement
this technology in OUR time!
Everyone hears the buzzwords -
decentralized power stations. I do not have the space here to
amplify on the exact definition, however, it is quite probably the most
cost effective solution to our current electrical energy situation.
Small, efficient powerhouses-in-a-hat (the term coined by the media
of Tesla's day for the Tesla Turbine) will be employed in towns,
communities, groups of houses, and around large cities, augmenting the
current Utilities power supply. We are in
the enviable position of being quite able to assist end-consumers in this energy crisis.
The BDT
engine has a weight to output horse power ratio of up to an
unbelievable 10 HP per pound. It has the ability to run on almost any
fuel. It is incredibly compact and lightweight. Pollution output from
the exhaust of even the propane version is FAR below that of even
today's best standard engines. The system also lends itself in use as
an "air to air" refrigeration system without the need for harmful Freon
gasses. The engine, by its very nature of operation is perfectly suited
to Turbo/Electric applications. The BDT engine is
unequaled in it's simplicity and output, far exceeding any other
conventional engine to date.
Where things really become interesting is
when we combine the technology of the Tesla Turbine with that of
Schauberger's Repulsine. Through our R&D and reverse-engineering of the
Tesla Turbine, we noted several similarities to the historical archives
regarding Schauberger's IMPLOSION engine - the Repulsine. Since our
work began in this direction in 2001, I can state that an operational
implosion engine can and will become a commercial application. The
basic difference in design of the Repulsine, vs. that of the Tesla
Turbine is the shape of the disk pack. Schauberger used a wavy plate
format for his disks, whereas Tesla's disks were flat and smooth.
Our work in this area has proven that Schauberger's implosion engine -
the Repulsine, is capable of 227 times more power output when compared
to the same size conventional Turbine. Why? IMPLOSION! Our work continues. This amazing engine is
called - InVAID.
What may be the solution to our current energy crisis? Wave,
hydro or rather - Ocean
Power.
Harnessing the power of the Earth's oceans is quite easily
achieved. The benefits? A totally independent, inexhaustible power
supply. The United States would be afforded complete energy
independence, and be converted to a nearly 100% electrically driven
economy. Totally non-polluting electrical energy, supplied directly
from our coastline Ocean's waves. All of our factories - converted to
electrical power. All of our automobiles and trucks and transportation
- converted to clean, electric drive vehicles. All of our homes -
converted to electric. Makes perfect sense. Does anyone reading this
like the possibility of paying $5.00 per gallon for gasoline??? It's
coming, so be prepared.
So what is the most sensible, most economical, and
simplest way to overcome an oil driven, fossil fuel economy, and
eliminate the stranglehold of mega-business oil industry??? Follow a
few simple steps:
1.) Convert every town's and/or city's sewer treatment plants to a
MagneGas (plasma arc) electrical generation plant. This gives everyone access to
low cost, virtually pollution-free, clean electricity, and the cost
will be less than half your current electricity bill...people - it's
FREE energy for the taking. And, yep - it's from poop that would
otherwise be going straight down the drain (no pun intended) anyway.
Add in farm animal waste, and we have more than enough material to
power ALL of our needs - without touching any fossil fuels in the
process.
2.) Install water powered Schauberger-based vortex hydro-power
plants on every major waterway and coastline in the United States.
Again, clean, zero pollution electrical power generation.
3.) Buy a Tesla turbine powered COMPRESSED AIR CAR! What's
coming out of the exhaust? AIR !!! Someone needs to cough up the money
to fund us...once that is done...all of this can be implemented,
immediately. And what have we just done by doing these THREE simple
things?! We've one hundred percent eliminated our dependency on OIL,
foreign or domestic. We've just switched over to a clean, electricity
driven economy. And as far as driving your good-old vehicle...come on,
now, get with the program, people - wouldn't you just love to know that
the exhaust coming out of your vehicle is safe, clean AIR?
4.) Drink pure, clean, vortex energized WATER ! After you have
had a chance to read over my sections on Viktor Schauberger, if you
don't, you really are missing the boat. We are what we eat - and DRINK.
80 percent of our bodies is water. Good water; good health. What we are
drinking now, is lifeless, darn near deadly, municipally treated water
(in almost all but relatively few pristine deep wells, and they are
slowly being polluted by ground water contamination). In the near
future, I think that pure water will become more valuable than just
about any other commodity. THINK. ACT.
5.) Start with your own HOME. At the very least, install a solar
hot water heater. Better, convert most of your heating to passive solar
(install a south-facing, glass wall - and use an insulated thick
concrete slab for thermal retention). If you have a fireplace or
woodstove, start using fire-logs made from recycled waste material
(they are now available at almost every large major retailer). Plant
some trees around your house. Start using recycled products, and,
conversely, recycle everything. Buy an electric car, or an air powered
car, and ditch the fossil fuel sucking monster in your garage. Buy a
bike, a trike, or start walking when you can. Ditch the electric
refrigerator and get a propane version, as they are roughly twice as
efficient. Switch all of your lights to the new LED lights, or at the
very least, compact fluorescents. Ditch the old tank hot water heater -
buy a super-efficient INSTANT hot water heater. Just doing these few
things, nation wide, saves nearly half our current annual oil
consumption...well, you get the picture.
Oh, and lest we all forget and start thinking greenhouse gasses are a
man-made issue, let's put things in perspective. Over HALF of the
greenhouse gasses currently being omitted on this planet are coming
from FARM ANIMALS. Yep - cows (bovine, mainly), pigs, goats, chickens,
etc...now shouldn't we consider utilizing this vast gas resource, as
well?! Either that, or vegetarianism is starting to look pretty darn
good. LOL.
Now it's all up to people that give a damn. I am
attempting to locate investors, willing to take up the challenge. We've
got zillionaire rock stars, movie stars, sports stars, and businessmen,
all of whom could easily fund these projects with darn near pocket
change. The line starts at our front door. Anyone with enough common
sense, and the "balls" to do so - please feel free to contact us. frank

the TESLA TURBINE: Historical Perspective
|
"The Electrical
Experimenter- The Tesla Gas Turbine"...July,
1920
"Dr. Nikola Tesla, whom the
readers of this publication know very well and whose amazing
work in the various scientific fields is also universally
recognized, again comes in the limelight with a remarkable
explosive gasoline turbine perfected by him recently which
he describes in detail in a patent just granted. This
remarkable turbine does away with all the troubles and
complexity to the former attempted types. Stated briefly,
the invention consists in the production of a peculiar shape
conduit, thru which the gases are admitted into the turbine,
and which has the singular property of permitting their
passage in that direction only; in other words,
uni-directionally. This device when used in conjunction with
the bladeless turbine produces an engine which may be
explosively operated by gasoline, alcohol, or other fuels
and is absolutely devoid of all valves. It is the simplest
internal combustion motor conceivable. Owing to the
tremendous output of the turbine, one single disk being
practically equivalent in performance to a whole bucket
wheel, a very small machine of this kind is capable of
developing an astonishing amount of power...
|
|
The upper part of the
turbine casing has bolted to it a separate casting, the
central cavity of which forms the combustion chamber.
To
prevent injury thru excessive heating, a water jacket may be
used, of else water injection, or air cooling, this all the
more readily as very high temperatures are practicable.
The
top of the casting is closed by a plate with a spark-plug
inserted and in it's sides are screwed two of the valvular
conduits communicating with the central chamber. One of these
is , normally, open to the atmosphere while the other connects
to the fuel source.
The bottom of the chamber terminates in a
suitable nozzle which consists of separate member of
heat-resisting material. To regulate the influx of the
explosive constituents and secure the proper mixture the air
and gas conduits are equipped with regulating valves. The
exhaust openings are in communication with a ventilator..."

Quotes from Nikola Tesla,
circa 1911...
|
|
"It is a radical departure in the sense
that its success would mean
the abandonment of the antiquated types of prime movers on which billions of dollars
have been spent. Under
such circumstances the progress must needs be slow and perhaps
the greatest impediment is encountered in the prejudicial
opinions created in the minds of experts by organized
opposition."
"I have developed
110 horsepower with disks nine and three quarter
inches in diameter and making a thickness of about
two inches. Under proper conditions the performance
might have been as much as 1,000 horsepower. In
fact there is almost no limit to the mechanical
performance of such a machine."
"This engine will
work with gas, as in the usual type of explosion
engine used in automobiles and airplanes, even
better than it did with steam. Tests which I have
conducted have shown that the rotary effort with
gas is greater than with steam."
"It is the lightest
prime mover ever produced and can be operated
without trouble at red heat, thereby obtaining a
very high economy in the transformation of
energy." Nikola Tesla, circa 1911.
