energy. Again, Leo Szilard’s theory on the decrease of entropy in a thermodynamic system, is
more than just about energy production, but I’m here to educate on my research, within a
thermodynamic system, that produces electricity. No more, no less.

Apologies in advance to all of you readers that are well educated in the subject matter.

One major condition of entropy, is friction. This can simply be thought of as any object rolling
down a hill. Grass, rocks, water, leaves, wind, and other factors work against the rolling object,
and finally the decreasing angle of the hill bringing the rolling object to a standstill. Our object
had potential energy, at the top of the hill, and it expended its kinetic energy, as it rolled down
the hill. If I took the same rolling object on the same size hill, cover the hill with ice and
eliminated the grass, rocks, water, leaves, and even the wind, by rolling object would go faster
and farther. Same potential energy, better kinetic result. Simple. Yes, I am aware that the vast
majority of university professors would argue with specific parts of my analogy, but grant me
license, in order to keep things as simple as possible.

Let’s take the analogy in the preceding paragraph, and add some detail. Say our hill is 100 feet
high, and inclines from the base of the hill to the top at a nearly perfect 45° angle. Now let’s say
our object is a hollow metal sphere that is 48 inches in diameter, and it weighs 50 pounds. We
have two distinctive downhill paths in which to allow our sphere to roll downhill. One side of
our hill is covered with freshly mowed grass, only an inch-high, it is completely dry, with
absolutely no debris in the path. The other side of our hill is covered with 6-inch-high grass, is
wet, has sand, gravel, and mud patches along the path in which we will roll our ball. We roll our
metal ball to the very brink of the hill and let it roll down each path. All of us know the
outcome.

We have the same potential energy, as our metal spheres sit at the top of their assigned paths
waiting to be pushed down the hill, and the clean side of the hill, free of obstructions allows the
metal ball to roll faster, and farther that on the second path.

Neither of our metal spheres contain more potential energy than the other, but the manner in
which our metal objects were allowed to travel, increased the amount of WORK (force x
distance) accomplished. The metal sphere that was assigned to roll down the clean side, would
travel a greater distance. Entropy as defined is a lack of order or predictability, a gradual
decline into disorder. The difference, between the two paths is clear and convincing, the path
with the higher friction is less productive, If the goal is to roll a metal sphere faster and further,
on identical slopes. By preparing the hill’s first path, I have intervened and reduced friction.
