Viktor Schauberger's basic thesis contains a universal,
twofold movement principle. He meant that life sustains by a gathering,
implosive type of movement and reversed, a spreading, explosive movement
that leads to the extinguishing of life. With the implosive movement coolness,
suction growth and healthiness follows. The explosive movement generates
heat, pressure, fragmentation, illness, and death. His opinion was that
man had only succeeded in mastering the movement of death in order to release
energy. All known engines are based on explosion, heat and pressure. To
only use the explosive movement, definitely leads to the destruction of
nature. These thoughts did not get any sympathy in his time, decades before
the environmental problems showed up.

Therefore, one of Schaubergers aims was to investigate
and artificially copy this movement that he could see that the nature was
using in order to gather energy for different uses. Basically the movement
could be described as an inward moving and
twisting
vortex.
The appearance of the vortex is wide. A spiral galaxy is an expression
for a disc shaped vortex whose opponent could be a
DNA
molecule, which describes a nearly
infinite
long thread shaped vortex. The grade of complexity becomes obvious if You
realize that large vortices are composed of smaller vortices and so on.
Imagine
the vortex that lifts the stack of leafs, this vortex is a part of a larger
system of vortices. Schauberger meant that when these vortex systems are
co-ordinated and phase together, huge
forces
are released. These forces are capable of building or condensing biological
systems and also rays of something that he named dia-magnetism. This dia-magnetism
is opposed to gravitation and explains (among other phenomena) how it is
possible for life forms on the surface of the earth to grow up in the air.
Everywhere in the nature Schauberger could see
shapes that sustain this, as he named it, multiple centripetal movement.
The beds of creeks and rivers, the gills and fins on fishes, the wings
of the birds, blood vessels and similar things, all these gives an impulse
to this type of movement. He tried to artificially generate the centripetal
movement in various types of machines. Among other devices, he designed
several prototypes of so called home power plants. These devices had conical,
twisted
tubes that were wrapped around a conical shaped body as a main component.
When these tubes are forced to rotate,
water
is sucked into the tubes in the biggest end and after being processed in
the tube it is sprayed out in a tremendous
force
on turbine vanes, mechanically connected to a generator. An other design,
an implosion machine that sucked in air that was twisted so efficiently
that the dia-magnetic field was able to lift the device with a tremendous
force. However, the
information
on the function and efficiency of these devices is
uncertain.
What is known, is that Schauberger had both American and Soviet eyes directed
on him. At the end of his life he was cheated, isolated and silenced by
businessmen from the US. These businessmen feared that he could threat
their business.
Problems arise when one tries to interpret the
language
used by Schauberger, as he expressed himself philosophically concerning
Nature rather than scientifically. It becomes difficult to develop a suitable
theoretical model that works when it comes to optimising the use of and
calculating the
dimensions
of vessels and pumps, for example. If one studies the freely flowing surface
of the water in a rapid, or the trumpet-shaped borderline surface at the
centre of a vortex, it becomes clear why a traditional approach becomes
very difficult when the system is heavily non-linear. Schauberger was more
interested in the system as a whole than in the details of its structure,
focusing on the shape of the
flow
in the system without knowing about the underlying mechanisms. Thus, such
an approach does not try to achieve as detailed a model as possible, but
is aiming for the simplest model that has the same fundamental characteristics
as the system. This is an approach that is closely related to that of modern
chaos
research. Here, it has been demonstrated that different and seemingly very
complex behaviour often may be represented by (ridiculously) simple models.
This is due to the fact that dynamic behaviour, for example at transitions
from one phase to another, is universal, and is found in widely differing
systems {Gleick, Waldrop}.
