Re-Inventing The Wheel-Part1-Clemente_Figuera-THE INFINITE ENERGY MACHINE

[Qwert]

Figuera mixed notions; it is big difference between transformation and amplification. Transformer does not amplify; amplifier does not transform. And he built a transformer and wanted to amplify. Of course, everything worked perfectly but only in his head, never in reality.

Maybe in combination with another idea there is a chance. Something like this:

QWERT, why are you doing that ?     Figuera device SURELY worked fine. It is a FACT not our supposition.

[Doug1]

In an effort to find the device which Tesla claims he already figured that out. The closest one I could find was US433702. Built as a ring two cores over lapped ,one shielded from the other. The other not sheilded on the outside of the shielded one seems to be of some importance as well as the the saturation capabillities being different from one another.Tesla appears to be using a motor where figura used resistance and back to the source. There is a slight statement of a pissy nature that Tesla wants to avoid mutual inductance of the two coils in his device but even when shielded it can if enough magnetic saturation is used in the primary. He also uses a motor with two sets of windings one run by generator the other by the device. He must have been wearing his dancing shoes on that trip to the patent office. There are a few simple facts about electromagnets which cant be argured. More turns of thin wire will produce a stronger magnet without using more current. Thicker wire with fewer turns will produce more induced current but lower voltage for the same strength magnetic feild. A iron core will produce a stronger magnet even more so then more turns of wire will.

Doug,
Certainly it is a curious patent ( "protect in a measure the secondary from the inductive action or effect of the primary by surrounding either the primary or the secondary with a comparatively-thin magnetic shield or screen" http://www.teslauniverse.com/nikola-tesla-patents-433,702-electrical-transformer ). What I don´t know if we can say that this patent from 1890 can be related to the essay in the Century Magazine in 1900 "The Problem of Increasing Human Energy"  http://www.tfcbooks.com/tesla/1900-06-00.htm (page 200 as refered by Tesla in his letter is the reference to "novel facts" into the text, search for it ). Such novel facts are described as "that an electric current is generated in a wire extending from the ground to a great height by the axial, and probably also by the translatory, movement of the earth") . For that reason Tesla mentioned that the condition in the Peak of Tenerife were fine for such a method  (Tenerife is the Island where Figuera lived). I am afraid that Tesla were thinking that Figuera captured the atmospheric energy -as reported in the newspapers- by using a kind of antenna to take advantage of the height. In any case, I don´t know if we should look for references to free energy in Tesla´s patents from his first years. Tesla was very smart and if he had discovered in 1890 any small possibility to capture free energy he would  have follow this line of research for sure.

Qwert, Please read into this link all the references to real proofs of the Figuera Generator. http://www.alpoma.net/tecob/?page_id=8258 I am sure he got it working. I have a reference where it is said that his house was lit with his generator, and I have heard of some references that Figuera´s plan was to light all the streets in his city (Santa Cruz de Tenerife) with his generator just using the standard wiring but, now,  powered by his generator. I am afraid that he didn´t make many friends in the electrical industry with such statement. He start working on it until he signed the sale of his patents to the banker union in september 1902. Later ...all is silence ...

Here it is a link to a Tesla paper where he talks about lag in the magnetic core:
