DATA
Here is some data I generated using some estimations and the
equations previously included here.
Effective buoyancy is calculated as proportional to a small allumina buoy.
Note that "maximum efficiency" takes no account of friction, and that the
estimates for buoyancy, while based on real-life equipment, may be on the high
end of possibility. Also, weight was calculated based on estimates that may not
reflect accurately what is possible with a given buoyancy. Ideally, high weight
and high buoyancy together would contribute to a more feasible design (yet
weight that is high relative to buoyancy would not be effective here, particularly
if the "buoys" do not float).
With 0.25 meter diameter buoys the balance would be:

Parentheses show maximum over-unity value without accounting
for friction, assuming as always that buoys rising vertically have pull. They
very well may not. However some of these numbers may indicate that the
device could produce energy even if there is no buoyant force in the upper tank.
In that case the operating assumption would be that there is no negative drag in
either of the tanks, or at least that the gravity force would overcome the drag as
well as the entry resistance.

document. Update: when I upgraded my website it appears the document
was lost. However, I will try to retrieve it from disk some time in the near
future.
