The true Tesla Coil

[elementSix]

I read a little peace of Teslas research paper.  He said that there is great power using a Globe within a Globe.  He reffered to the Earth and the core, and also the earth and the ionisphere and the energy that is produced.
Any thoughts on Teslas love of 3,6 and 9.  Maybe using the 3 turn primary with a 6 turn secondary.  Then use a 9 turn recieving coil.  Or is that just nothing?

I was hoping to start a discussion on exploring Tesla's notion of the "extra coil" in his system aside from the primary and secondary. The most interesting diagram I have ever personally seen in regards to the true Tesla Coil is that of Eric Dollard's which approaches the subject entirely different than a conventional Tesla transformer, or even the systems I have been personally developing. It takes advantage of David Sereda's concept of a differential harmonic created between two different electromagnetic waves in between each coil set. This diagram can also include a spark gap in between the capacitor and the primary. I have reread Dollard's Condensed Intro to Tesla Transformers several times over, and several parts I've lost count. This piece of writing is like no other in the free energy movement. I would love to hear other people's persepctive and opinions on the subject.

The problem I have seen is that people do not understand Tesla, because they tend to either "look for the mystical", or place Tesla on a pedestal as somehow "unknowable". Tesla was brilliant concerning resonance, and understood inductance, reluctance, reactance,  and capacitance extremely well. He was also an ordinary human being such as you or I.


Tesla was a practical man, which I gathered quickly after reading his patents and research notes, as well as many of his lectures. His goal was not resonance for resonance sake. Every application of resonance in any situation had a very specific purpose. He designed his coils in numerous ways, for numerous purposes. Some might be wound for specifically high potential, and designed on the quarter wave principle for that purpose. Others might be wound specifically to test theories of self capacitance, self-inductance, reluctance, etc.


"Tesla Coil" as Tesla made them encompasses a great number of possible designs each for potentially different purposes.


The question then naturally must be asked. For what purpose do you wish to achieve? You then use Tesla's concepts to achieve the goal.


Want a coil which will resonate without a capacitor? All in the coil design, as you choose a design and wind for the proper self capacitance, with both the inductance, wire length, and capacitance designed for the desired frequency.


With enough thought in your design, you can use the properties of coils to simulate almost any basic electrical component of Tesla's day.


Just because you see a coil in Tesla's notes, pictures, or drawings..... don't automatically assume it is there as a conventional coil. 


That used to logically trip me up.

The surface of the earth is a conductor. So is the core, and so is the ionosphere. There is dielectric between each, and as such form two separate but connected capacitors. They can be used to either store, transmit, or provide energy. These capacitors are constantly being charged by the sun, so inherently hold a vast amount of energy, some of which we see exchanged with breakdown of the dielectric as lightning with it's temporary localized equalization of charges.


Telsa had a "thing" for resonance. 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1, multiples of 2, as well as 1/3, 2/3, 1, and multiples of three. The first were for harmonious resonance, the second set for destructive inharmonious resonance. Harmonious and inharmonious are often overlooked. They are not used in modern electronics or concepts of resonance. However, Tesla had a "thing" for any and all forms of resonance including physical, field, and electrical. "Waves" interested Tesla also, and it made no difference if it were pressure, sound, or radio.


Those numbers all have to do with wavelengths, harmonics, wave and field manipulation, and their respective uses and application.

This is a link to a scribe page.  It is a Book on Nikola Tesla and his Lecture before the New York Academy of Science, April 6th 1897.  It is about 167 pages long.  It is a very hard book to find, but it free to read directly from the web page.  It tells about how he makes some of his inventions.  Like the HairPin Circuit and the special Transformer that he made from a Pancake coil that has both the Primary and Seconadary in it and is made with 30 PSI and covered in Bees Wax.  If made right, it can produce 10 inch sparks from 12 watts.  It also can draw in Ambient Either Energy, that in the Dark can be seen.  It can only work right if made in a vacume, with no air present in the coil.  I would love to hear of everyone making one and gathering the Either energy that it draws in.

How should this coil be properly excited ?  To get what is written there.
From 50 volts 25kilovolts. That is, the square root of 250,000. ?
