- Testing an EMDrive [2]
Please don't get confused by this document. A totally non moving EMDrive will NOT MOVE. Something must cause a slight movement Big End toward Small End for the EMDrive to produce thrust. In our normal world vibration is what causes this to happen. Note carefully what Shawyer says"
"A number of methods have been used in the UK, the US and China to measure the forces produced by an EmDrive thruster. In each successful case, the EmDrive force data has been superimposed on an increasing or decreasing background force, generated by the test equipment itself.
Indeed, in the UK when the background force changes were eliminated, in an effort to improve force measurement resolution, no EmDrive force was measured. This was clearly a result of attempting to measure the forces on a fully static thruster, where T and R cancel each other.
UK flight thruster measurements employ this principle to calibrate the background
noise on the force balance prior to carrying out force measurements."
