Confirming the Delayed Lenz Effect

[CRANKYpants]

HEY LUC,

YOU HAVE A RESONANT CIRCUIT THERE... 
I STILL WONDER IF THIS (AND OVERUNITYGUIDE'S) TRANSFORMER DELAYED LENZ IS ACTUALLY A CORE HYSTERISIS DELAYED EFFECT OR A BIT OF BOTH?

Parallel LC circuit Resonance

Here a coil (L) and capacitor (C) are connected in parallel with an AC power supply. Let R be the internal resistance of the coil. When XL equals XC, the reactive branch currents are equal and opposite. Hence they cancel out each other to give minimum current in the main line. Since total current is minimum, in this state the total impedance is maximum.Resonant frequency given by:

Thanks for the video gotluc. I have a question though, did the circuit act differently if you shorted it vs using the led. The reason I ask is, don't led's act as diodes? This wouldn't be the same as a short circuit. Now back to watching the video..

Also, you keep saying current changes when it is the voltage isn't it?

Thane, I was drawing the same conclusion at first glance, but.....
to be dead sure, we need the total primary current, while the primary current that Luc is showing is only the current that is going through the primary coil and not the current through the parallel capacitor, at least that is what I observe from it.
The current through the capacitor should be added as well.

So, Luc can you check whether you connected the parallel capacitor before or after the serial resistor?

MY GUESS IS THE SHUNT RESISTOR IS CONNECTED IN SERIES WITH THE TANK CIRCUIT EITHER WAY THOUGH - BEFORE OR AFTER THE CURRENT THROUGH THE SHUNT IS THE TOTAL CURRENT UNLESS MAXWELL'S EQUATIONS ARE WRONG...?

OH WAIT THEY ARE! 

AT ANY RATE MY POINT IS THE CURRENT MAGNITUDE IS IRRELIVANT IF THE POWER FACTOR IS ZERO.

WHAT IS REALLY OF VALUE (TO ME AT LEAST) IS SHIFTING TO PHASE ANGLE AROUND WILLY NILLY LIKE THAT.

LUC, PERHAPS I OUGHT TO COME OVER AND CHECK IT OUT CAN YOU DOCK YOUR BOAT IN CANADA OR ARE THE MIB'S STILL AFTER YOU?

BTW A LED IS ESSENTIALLY A SHORT CIRCUIT AND LUC ESTABLISHES THIS IN HIS VID.

Folks,

Luc connected the tuning cap(s) directly in parallel with the primary coil and the series 1 Ohm is placed outside of this parallel circuit, it is not included in it. It means that the current is at its minimum value as is shown when there is resonance (current and voltage gets in phase) while inside a parallel LC circuit the reactive current is at its maximum when tuned to resonance.
The current we see in the video is at its minimum at resonance because the parallel circuit's resonant impedance increases to a maximum value, this is what establishes the minimal current then.

Regarding the LED as a load? it is a diode and gives a near shorting effect in every second half period of the AC wave whenever the LED senses a forward bias from the AC amplitude.

BUMP ME !

Sorry to overlap gotoluc's post (i have always admired your videos, in fact i think that was why i joined OU.com) but i just attached a load and got an accelerated rotor with less current draw.

Does that mean anything to anyone or am i overstating the importance of my little experiment ?

I don't have a scope (well, i have a poor maa's soundcard scope just for frequency measurements) so i can't comment on luc's results.

But i would greatly appreciate knowledgeable comments on my results.

BTW Thane, i am DeepCut66 who sent you a video today.
