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

@bajac:
Well, this line in sketch works well for compling:

const byte sine256[] PROGMEM = {

Is there any issue to apply it?

Core shape:
- Wondering on why you have no primary coils at outer limbs of your core!

- As core permeability is 1000fold compared to the air gaps (like 1kOhm to 1 Ohm) the influence of core might be minute.
The flux from primaries operates the center limb asymmetrically while Lenz backlash hits primaries symmetrically both outer limbs. But one primary is just increasing in flux and the other one is just decreasing in flux.That  might be the clue we search for. (Just an idea I want to look at if I have my setup running.)

-I will compose it of cut transformer segments like posted recently.
A three phase transformer needs to be cut 4 times only (left/right + top / bottom around the center limb.

- What Figuera does not mention: if he used bi(multi)filar windigns at primaries. Did anybody try this? Hints from Ramaswami indicate to look at this detail.

I always recall to read the original patent text in detail to look for the right coil placement. It is not fair to read the patent text just partially, or just trying to read what you want to be read.


In the 1914 patent (Patent No. 57955 and filed by Buforn, a partner of Figuera) you can read:


"If you want even greater production you can place the inducers and the induced one
after the other forming a single series in the next way: you place first an electromagnet
N, for example, next another electromagnet S, and between their poles and properly
placed you put the corresponding induced, with this we will have formed a group of
battery as explained before, but now (instead of forming as many identical groups to the
first one as number of induced coils needed) you can place, following the last
electromagnet S, another induced and, after this last induced you can place an inducer
N, following this inducer by another induced, and then by another S, and so on until
having placed all the inducers which form the series of electromagnet N and S.


With this we will have succeeded in using the two poles of all inducers except the first
and the last one of which we will have only used one pole and, therefore we will have as
many inducers as induced minus one, this is, if "m" is for example the number of
inducers, then the number of induced will be "m – 1", which determine a considerable
increase in the production of the induced current with the same expenditure of force."


--------------------------


Please explain how your proposals may fit (if possible) this coil arrangement.


For me it is clear that all electromagnets are arranged in a linear way (bar core type), as NRamaswani has designed. Therefore you can use with this design both poles of each electromagnets in contrary to the use of just one pole of each electromagnet as in the original 1908 design.


For me it is clear that electromagnets are just solenoids , not any kind of transformer core type. Please open your minds and recall the generator from Hubbard, Hendershot and others where the cores are not forming any king of close transformer.


I attach the partial translation of the 1914 patent (sorry but it is 30 page long and it is too much time for me to translate it completely, more when it is practically a copy of the 1908 design plus some improvements as the ones explained in the translation that I attach)


Regards and good luck to everyone

That change works for me, without errors. The program appears to function correctly,  just as before.


NOTE: The problem seems to be that the data type "prog_uchar" has been deprecated in the later versions of the IDE, it is no longer included in the AVR library.

Google "arduino prog_uchar" and you will find lots of links from people encountering similar problems, with explanations.


ETA: Here's a scopeshot showing the sinusoidal variation in pulse width, of the Pin 11 output. I've got the thing set to the maximum frequency here, which is about 1020 Hz.

Thanks! You are right. My nano runs fine along IDE 1.0.6. I refused to update the IDE at this PC
Would you please post your extended program?

To give Phase control: Add another potentiometer, connect wiper to Pin A1. Both Phase and Frequency potentiometer values can be 100K or other.

In the sketch, in loop() add the line
offset=(map(analogRead(A1), 0,1023,0,127));

You may need to experiment with the values in the map statement. There may be better ways to do this, I'm still experimenting.
