Michael Faraday, and someone in Russia was said to have propelled a boat on a river with this new engine. Claims were that this device was able to carry out work at literally no cost, and Joule, who was [...] had become clear to Joule that this could not be an economic useful re- placement for the steam engines in his factory. Yet, what puzzled him and made him uncom- fortable was the heat that was produced

other result of Mouchot’s attempts was a steam engine that was operated with steam pro- duced by his solar apparatus. Mouchot devised several of the engines, the largest was shown at the world exhibition [...] Consequently, Joule’s aim seemed to have been the construction of an economical electro- magnetic engine. This can be derived by the fol- lowing: "I can hardly doubt that electro- magnetism will ultimately [...] en- gine) will be in direct ratio of the quantity of elec- tricity, and the costs of working the engine may be reduced ad infinitum" (Joule 1884, p. 14). This idea of an ‘economical perpetuum mobile’ is

After finishing his studies, he went on a nine- months [...] Guericke out for 300 thalers. Guericke moved then to Erfurt, where he became the fortifications engineer. In 1632, when Magdeburg was taken over by Swedish people, he came back to his homecity, where he
