The first magnet at the rim of the circular disk has its north aligned with axis of rotation and facing towards it. This system comprises of eight magnets arranged at equal distances at the rim of a circular disk and a ring magnet at the centre of the disk as shown in Fig. i.e., the output of the system is greater than the input. Recently a system on permanent magnets has been observed by the author, whose designer claimed that his system can provide ‘free energy’. However for the scientifically inquisitive mind, the urge to distill reasons which make some systems appear as PMMs, remains a factor. According to the designer of it the machine functions with the work produced by the buoyant force.Ĭlaims of “Free Energy” generation using Perpetual Motion Machines (PMM) are usually discounted by the scientific community since PMMs are considered impossible, as a direct corollary of the Law of Conservation of Energy. The presentation of a new «perpetual motion machine» has excited our interest to locate its weak points. The discussion on every version of a perpetual motion machine on the one hand gives the chance to comprehend the inventor's of each period level of knowledge and his way of thinking, and on the other hand, to locate the points where this «perpetual motion machine» clashes with the laws of nature and that's why it is impossible to have been manufactured or have functioned. Although physics has led, with two thermodynamic laws, to the opinion that a perpetual motion machine is impossible to be manufactured, inventors of every age and educational level appear to claim that they have invented something «entirely new» or they have improved somebody else's invention, which «will function henceforth perpetually»! However the fact of the failure in manufacturing a perpetual motion machine till now, it does not mean that countless historical elements for these fictional machines become indifferent. there have been relative descriptions of known devices as well as manufactures for the creation of perpetual motion machines.
