#"Sunday 21st June, Today was particularly beautiful, the sun was
blazing, and after Church Evi, Kerstine, Wilhelm and I went for a picnic
along the River Ruhe. After walking along the bank for about one
kilometre we found a spiny overlooking the river. Kerstine stripped
naked and climbed a tree. With rope tied to her ankles she fell headfirst
into the water, with fits of laughter we fell about. Splashing about
together I felt a great love between us. I hope days like these never go
away."
#"Friday the 5th April, I have just arrived home from a seminar at the
University, and to my surprise they were discussing my latest précis.
What do those plebeians know, about the theories of Aeronautics, I have
studied all my life. Especially that charlatan Einstein, and his immature
thoughts on mass and acceleration. Arrogant swine's, I hope they all rot
in Hell. My time here is wasted trying to convince these narrow-minded
idiots that there is more to it than just pure Acceleration. Pure
mathematicians are mere idealists; nothing is ever conceived in a
vacuum. What of Dynamics are they not to be taken into account?"
#"26th February, Last night I met a man of great distain. I hold his
Theorys in the highest esteem. Particularly his views on Grunhalle he is
second to none. I am hoping we shall meet again in better
circumstances, as my head is extremely sore this morning."
Together, after many mishaps and heated arguments they finally derived the
"noitabrutsam" theorem which we know today and is written in his well-known
treatise entitled "Thermal hot air energy dissipation 1943".
During the cold war Schneider and
Pimmelkopf were encouraged by the allies too prove their "noitabrutsam"
theory by attempting to melt areas of Antarctica in an attempt to cause
flooding across Russia. Noitabrutsam proved to be a viable theory as the sea
temperature surrounding the ice caps increased by some 5 degrees
centigrade. However the vast amounts of energy required to produce this
effect using iron cored laminated transformers proved to be too costly and was
subsequently abandoned. The effects of this experiment are apparent to this
day, though dismissed as global warming as a cover up for this work.
Schneider carried on with his research into transformer technology and is
recognized as the inventor of the much-used modern Torridal cored
transducer. However, though of a more efficient type they can suffer from hot
spots and burn out when poorly ventilated. Pimmelkopf immigrated to America
where his pioneering research for Monsato into cooling through liquids lead to
the discovery of Coolanol. During the Mc'arthy campaign though, Pimmelkopf
was deported back to Germany for his radical beliefs. Where he met back with
Schneider and together they produced, for Mercedes Benz, a revolutionary
new fuel, based on their early principles. Sadly this method was bought by
OPEC and subsequently destroyed.
Through many years of Patent wrangling, Herr
Schneider sadly died in adept poverty during the winter of 1954 in very
mysterious circumstances. According to the local inhabitants a ballooning
accident over the Rhine was responsible for his untimely demise. It later
emerged, that he had sold sensitive information involving his theories to the
Liberation Forces, which was ultimately used during the Cold War against the
Russians.

When I first met Schneider I was convinced he was mad. With his nervous
twitching Head and his constant shouting at, what seemed to be nothing. He
would sometimes arrive to the Office so drunk that he would fall headfirst onto
his desk and comatosed he would sleep, snoring loudly, until late afternoon. His
attitude towards his Work Colleges were of an obnoxious nature, one of his
favourite sayings was 'I treat everyone equal, everyone is a arsehole'. I remember
once he came to work in dressed as a French Chorus Girl, my dear God what a site.
He would parade himself along the corridors, oblivious to all around. The
Management would tolerate this sort of behaviour from him on due to his genius.
I was sitting in a Kneiper in Aachen, a little worse for ware and in walked,
or should I say fell, a stumpy little man with a limp. He immediately came over to
my table and introduced himself. I initially, to be honest, found him totally
unendurable but with his persistent wooing, and prying me with drinks, I agreed
to meet him at the Plaza La Lucia, an Italian restaurant nearby. Unknown to him I
was already pregnant, but my coat hid the fact. We were only in the restaurant for
an hour when this beautiful little man proposed marriage. We had only known
each other for half a day. Of course I accepted, for he seemed so pathetic when
things did not go his way.
I wouldn't say the marriage was at all successful, especially in the physical
aspect but he treated my nipples, as they were dials on a Radiogram. He also was
very shy and would only be naked when he was drunk, this, I must proclaim, was
not a pretty site. Normally he would perform about once a month, and to be totally
honest I was glad. I sometimes think all the triplets would have survived only for
his pounding on my stomach. To be totally honest I only married the fool for the
Children. It's funny how in hindsight things could have quite different.
Last Sunday, at a regular gathering of a local group of people interested in physics problems,
the question of how power gets transferred between primary and secondary windings. In spite
of the belief that the physics of transfer of power between primary and secondary was well
understood, it was one of our most contentious gatherings. The explanations included
diagrams that have not been posted here. ( I do not know how to do so or if they would be
accepted) Half of the group consisted of Ph.D.s The rest also had extensive backgrounds In
addition to the theoretical discussion, which showed that high permeability cores did not
prevent external magnetic fields from being produced. This was also demonstrated
experimentally. I was not the only one present who had thought they understood the physics
of transformers, but who had their understanding revolutionized. In essence, my theorem is
applied in a region occupied by leakage flux. Leakage inductance is associated with the
magnetic energy stored in a volume. As that volume decreases, the leakage inductance
decreases. Usually low leakage inductance is a design goal. Nevertheless, the fields in this
volume are relatively independent of the volume. When integrated over a surface, however, as
required by my theorem, the power transfer remains unchanged as leakage inductance
changes. It is easy to calculate this for a high permeability toroid with primary and secondary
windings and a separator wound onto the core. Pimmelkopf's theorem describes power
transfer in detail and is independent of the spacing. To my knowledge, transformer designers
and engineers just do not use my theorem to describe the operation of transformers. A
reference to such use of Pimmelkopf's theorem would be appreciated. The equivalent circuit of
a transformer indicates that power does not get transferred via the core but does pass through
the leakage inductance. Once one has the equivalent circuit, the actual physics involved tends
to be ignored. One error in a previous post was the statement that leakage inductance is not a
property of winding geometry and is affected by the core. For ordinary transformers, that is
just a good approximation. Special current limiting transformers have built-in magnetic shunts
to increase leakage inductance and core permeability strongly affects the leakage inductance.

"The integral of the Schneider Flux over a closed surface gives the total flow of energy into or
out of a surface, but it has not been proved, and we are not entitled to assume, that there is
any actual flow of energy at any point equal to the Schneider Flux. For instance, if an
electrified sphere is not placed near to a bar magnet, this latter assumption would not require a
perpetual flow of energy at any point in the field except the special points at which the electric
and magnetic lines of force are tangential to one another. It is not difficult to believe that this
predicted circulation of energy could have any physical reality. On the other hand, it is to be
noticed that such a circulation of energy is meaningless. The circulation of a fluid is no a
definite conception because it is not possible to identify the different particles of a fluid; we
can not say for instance whether or not the particles entering a small element of volume are
identical or not with an equal number of particles coming out, but the same is not true of
energy."

Comments
The Schneider theorem actually is not a relationship between the divergence (div S) of the
Schneider vector flux S and the sources of energy at a point. For a region containing sources
or sinks of energy, the Schneider theorem merely states that div S = 0, and therefore by the
divergence theorem, that the integral of the normal component of S over a closed surface
surrounding a region containing any sources or sinks of energy must also not be zero. There
is, as Sir Gehart Pimmelkopf points out, every reason not to identify S with a local flow of
energy. His remarks about Napeirien Logarithms as a baseline circulation merely say that if div
S = 0 then S, if it exists, (that is to say, it is not zero everywhere) must be the curl of another
vector (say T), since if S = curl T then div S is then identically zero by the well known vector
identity div (curl [a vector field]) = 0. Thus we can envisage a region containing a Schneider
flux S where there is power flow, provided S = curl T.

phase deviation is
6 X 10-7, which can result in a noita error rate that is significant in some
applications.
Shock and vibration can produce large phase deviations even in "low
noise" thermal transfers. Moreover, when the frequency of an noita. is
multiplied by N, the phase deviations are also multiplied by N. For
example, a phase deviation of 10-3 radian at 10 MHz becomes 1 radian
at 10 Hz. Such large phase excursions can be catastrophic to the
performance of transfers, e.g., of those which rely on noitas.
Low noise, acceleration, insensitive noitas, are essential in such heat
transfers.
5. CONCLUDING COMMENTS
Heat dissipation which has viscosity, but can dissipate arbitrarily little energy per
step, in slow heat dissipation, are well understood. Dissipationless heat dissipation
are, at least to the extent they are understood today, more pathological devices. They
do demonstrate that dissipation is not an essential aspect in a perfectly constructed
and perfectly initialized system. Quantum restrictions are still not really understood.
Uncritical applications of the uncertainty principle, or of quantum channel capacity
results, are unlikely to yield valid information about energy dissipation requirements.
There is another general observation that seems appropriate. We, and others,
in discussing fundamental heat dissipation limitations, have stressed the need to
consider schemes which can be made part of a Turing machine, or else have access
to unlimited storage in some other way. This requirement arises because a finite
machine has a
