Portrait of Viktor Schauberger

Viktor Schauberger (born June 30, 1885 in Holzschlag in Schwarzenberg am Böhmerwald ; † September 25, 1958 in Linz ) was an Austrian forester in the forests of the Dead Mountains , consultant to the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, inventor, natural scientist and para- scientist .

Life

For Schauberger, the horns of the great kudu were a model for coiled pipelines

Schauberger came from a family of fishermen, foresters, wood masters and hunters and was born on June 30, 1885 in Holzschlag am Plöckenstein, the eighth of twelve children. His parents were Leopold Schauberger and Josefa, née Klimitsch. From 1891 to 1897 he attended elementary school in Aigen, then until 1900 the state high school in Linz. Until 1904 he went to the forestry school in Aggsbach in the Carthusian monastery of Aggsbach , where he passed the exam as a forester. From 1904 to 1906 he was Forstadjunkt in Groß-Schweinbarth, Lower Austria .

He then did military service from 1906 to 1908. From 1909 to 1913 he was initially a Forstadjunkt in the service of Count Rudolf Abensberg-Traun . Because of a collision with poachers , he switched to the services of the ruling Prince Adolf von Schaumburg-Lippe ( Steyrling administration ) in 1911 for reasons of personal safety . Schauberger took part in the First World War from 1914 to 1918 . He was drafted into the artillery as a reservist and served as a 1st class reserve clearing officer in theaters of war in Russia, Italy, Romania and France.

For von Schaumburg-Lippe, Schauberger built several innovative wood washing systems in 1922 , which reduced the wood transport costs to a tenth of the previous costs. From 1924 to 1926 he was state consultant (advisor) for the flooding in the Austrian Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. In this context, he was significantly involved in the construction of three large wood flooding systems: Großraming , Klausen-Leopoldsdorf (near Vienna) and a system near Bad Ischl (Rettenbachwildnis). A personal friendship with the hydraulic engineer Philipp Forchheimer gave him the opportunity to publish from 1925. He was also involved in the construction of a flooding facility in the Mürz Valley near Neuberg from 1925 to 1928. This alluvial tank was in operation until 1951. In the 1930s, Schauberger built wood washing plants in Austria, Montenegro , Turkey and other countries.

Under the government of Engelbert Dollfuss , Schauberger was discussed as Minister of Agriculture .

Attempts to generate energy

Viktor Schauberger gained views through observations of nature that made him question the scientific worldview. He believed that nature is based on a previously unknown principle of movement, which he called "implosion". He saw the implosion principle macrocosmically in "helical movements" of the planets and microcosmically in "ellipsoidal orbits" of the electrons in Bohr's model of the atom . These " cycloid forms of movement" are also of importance for all constructive evolutionary natural principles in the material intermediate forms of our physical reality. From this thesis he derived the motto “understand and copy nature”.

Trout standing quietly in flowing mountain streams and traditional ideas from the loggers made Schauberger believe that nature provides great driving forces, of whose existence we do not know anything. In the interwar period, he presented his wooden flooding systems as practical evidence of his thesis of the “law of water movement”, according to which the forces inherent in concentric water vortices could be used technically. Schauberger's functioning wood washing system made it possible to easily bring wood at a fraction of the previous cost.

Devices he called Repulsine or Repulsator, which he built for use as a transport device or to generate energy, were examined in the Second World War for their suitability as a miracle weapon . The claim that his invention could generate free energy , that is, the repulsine would actually be a perpetual motion machine , contradicts the laws of thermodynamics .

Relationship to National Socialism

On July 22nd, 1934, at the suggestion of the Bremen industrialist Ludwig Roselius , Schauberger was invited to the Berlin Reich Chancellery of Adolf Hitler to present his concepts and plans for water treatment and alternative energy generation. Although Hitler then ordered that the necessary action be taken, Schauberger, according to his own account, went back to Vienna after discussions with scientists and officials from the Reich Chancellery, without having accepted Hitler's offer. In the daily report of the Reich Chancellery it was recorded that Hitler thought Schauberger was a fraud. Schauberger, on the other hand, believed that he had won over Hitler for his ideas.

In 1935, the Frankish Gauleiter Julius Streicher , who had close ties to Schauberger's relatives, brought him to Nuremberg . There Schauberger gave a public lecture to Siemens managers and technicians. It was then decided to build an apparatus based on the principles presented by Schauberger in order to check his theses. The device, which was built according to Schauberger's specifications, destroyed itself during a test run and melted at around 4000 degrees Celsius.

In 1937 further experiments with a room heater were carried out in Vienna , which also turned out to be a failure: The heating machine emitted dangerous radiation that even penetrated walls and destroyed golden rings worn on fingers. Siemens then ended the collaboration.

Later it came to surveillance by the Gestapo , confiscation of his equipment by the high command of the Wehrmacht and almost to his execution.

In 1941 he was asked by the Vienna Armaments Inspectorate to demonstrate that falling water droplets can create light effects (see: The Kelvin water droplet generator ). That earned him the contract to develop new cooling systems for aircraft engines for the Messerschmitt works in Augsburg . The collaboration ended abruptly after the experimental apparatus collapsed during experiments with a prototype of the repulsator.

According to Schauberger's reports, during his work in Mauthausen concentration camp , he corresponded several times with Reichsführer SS Heinrich Himmler , a trained farmer , who had consulted him on biological and bioenergetic questions.

Employment of prisoners in Mauthausen concentration camp

On April 20, 1944, he said, Schauberger was summoned from the Office of Technology in Linz and taken from there to the Mauthausen concentration camp , where he was subordinated to camp commandant Franz Ziereis as a civilian employee to continue his physical experiments. He was ordered to build engines for airplanes and submarines with the support of five suitable "inmate engineers". Thereupon the development of a “repulsator”, later called “repulsine”, was started, which is said to have been a further development of the aircraft engine with air propulsion. A patent application by Schauberger, which was rejected by the patent office in 1940, served as the building template. The second construction begun in the concentration camp, which did not leave the design stage, was an egg-shaped container in which water with some ingredients was to be converted into gasoline in order to propel submarines according to the principle of trout breathing.

At Schauberger's urging, his team of inmates (two Czechs, two Germans, one Pole) was transferred from Mauthausen to the Vienna Schönbrunn satellite camp on September 28, 1944 , where the group was quartered in a room at the SS engineering school there. Schauberger acted as a "scientific director" and, according to his own statements, had to pay a "loan fee" to the SS for the prisoners assigned to him. After the SS barracks had been bombed repeatedly, the command was transferred to a seized scythe factory near Leonstein in Upper Austria .

At the end of the war in 1945 the guards fled, Schauberger fired his employees and stayed behind with his family alone in the camp until the American troops arrived, who, Schauberger reports, stopped him to continue his work and carried out interrogations and investigations. In October 1945, an American officer ordered Schauberger to be guarded by the Austrian gendarmerie to protect him from Russian kidnappings. His devices and documents were temporarily locked away.

Experiments with suction turbines and agricultural trials

Schauberger was released in March 1946 and the Schaubergers moved to Linz in December 1946 . The Americans did not confiscate his workshop and laboratory materials, but are said to have forbidden him to continue doing research on the Repulsine . In 1947 Schauberger moved to Salzburg , where he resumed machine development in the laboratory and workshop of the Rödhammer & Co. company . In 1948 a water apparatus was ordered by the Dr. Wehrle completed. At the same time, he was working on the development of a so-called bio or suction turbine for water. In September 1948 he received a kudu antelope horn from Wehrle , which inspired him in the sense of bionics to develop his double helical tubes, which were the main component of his suction turbines. In 1951 he submitted a patent application for the vortex tube in Austria, which was granted in 1958.

From 1948 to 1950 he carried out agricultural trials and cooperated with the Rosenberger company in Salzburg to produce and market copper and water devices. Because he mistrusted scientists and technicians, he had modified test models and prototypes of the suction turbine made by coppersmiths and mechanics based on his descriptions and sketches, without technical calculations and factory drawings. The models all did not work or burst. On the basis of his notes, after his death, the esotericist Leopold Brandstätter ( Leobrand ), a friend of his, constructed an implosionist Leobrand vortex turbine , for which he applied for a patent several times in Vienna from April 1962 onwards.

Private

Schauberger's daughter Huberta was married to the actor and cabaret artist Maxi Böhm .

Aftermath

In the 21st century, Schauberger is still important in the esoteric scene in connection with revitalized water . His para-scientific research into the “special energy of water” led to the development of water vortexes that are supposed to revive and vitalize water. Numerous suppliers of drinking water vortices offer equipment shafts for drinking water revitalization "according to Schauberger".
