Reactive power - Reactive Generator research from GotoLuc - discussion thread

This will never end!... I don't know why I bother to torture myself like this

Indeed, my sentiments as well.

I've apparently wasted too much time on this already. Good luck.

Hi
   this thing seems to be doing what is claimed. Could anyone please tell me how it could
be used in a practical way?

Suppose you have a motor driving a generator. Lets use a dc motor, so we can easily see it's power usage. Suppose it is a 12 Volt 5A motor. It is able to overcome all resistive loads on the generator which is attached to the shaft. We then use the generators output and place there one circuit (see Luc's #3 and 4 videos) of MOT + C + Rectifier + battery. As you can see, 1.7 Amps is being delivered. How ever the dc motor will show no increase of amperage. Now connect at least 2 more of this circuit. It will still not increase the current to the 12 volt motor, but now we have 5.1 Amps. After some fine tuning (the generator does have a limit to the amount of added circuits) there will be a maximum of delivered amps (note that we also have free heat, these mot's do get warm, I'd like that in the winter very much).
For some reason I am feeling very comfortable about this reactive setup. An analogy (imho): the power company asks us to add a capacitor to a inductive load. if you look at the video explaining 'power factor', you will see that the added capacitor is in fact storing half of the sinus wave the power which is induced back, and the next half cycle it is freeing that power to the inductor, and thus the power factor is corrected. In pure reactive mode, the same (alike) seems to be happening. Note I am not saying the same is happening, it is pure for reference.
Also think of this (and when Luc slows down his inductive motor you can see this): a motor is as well a generator. So: when the motor is not spinning, the oscilloscope show the low voltage on the motor (a few volts). When the motor has spun up, the voltage increases to 50-ish volts. This is a motor-generator effect in equilibrium.

Well, of course I can be wrong, but by looking at this open minded, the idea is that all we need to find out is the limit of the reactive power which we can get or draw from the generator. If we have 3 Amps running (as in his demo) then I expect a 1000W generator is limited to 3 reactive circuits attached. Because the amps are flowing, but in a resonating way. The coils in the generator are in fact part of the LCR circuit as well, things are little more complex if you add it all up (haha, but not on the inductive part of a 0.1 ohm resistor, I dare say that sort of influence is really next to zero). Any way. it can and will run looped, and then with a surplus. As well in warmth as in power out in any way.

So far my thoughts. The more we share the further we will get on this.

I would just like to say to luc you are a special person sharing even with all people trying to blow you out of the water. I for one would like to say a heartfelt thanks to you for this knowledge and hope the naysayers don't scare you off. hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year ron from Australia please delete post if it is inappropriate. thank you kind sir

Hi everyone,

the circuit is about to take a huge change!

Strange how we see something and we don't follow through. About two weeks ago I had a MOT that was cut open, just the E core with both the coils in it and I was able to get 95% of the effect and with no short to the Secondary. I put it aside for testing later and didn't get back to it till last night after exchanges with Hob.

Well it looks like a MOT is NOT needed LOL. Now I know why some experimenters had different results!

Consider your power source (Alternator) as the Inductor, so the main component is the Capacitor. Adding another Inductor may have benefits but lets leave it out for now.

So the test is so simple there's no reasons anyone cannot to do it. So no more loads of tests and questions needed to be answered by me, you will answers all your questions by seeing the results yourself.

New Test:

connect a Capacitor in series of around 35uf or lower and choose another component of your choice, Resistor or FWBR and connect it also in series with your capacitor, that's it.

If you chose a FWBR you connect the AC legs in series and you need a battery on the DC side but be careful if you feed 220v though and have no load attached to your battery as in no time it will got over the ideal charge voltage limit  of 14.5 Volts. So have enough load attached to your battery to keep the voltage around 12.8 volts.

An  Induction Motor of very low coil resistance could also be used as a component choice but you will need to add a flip flop relay to start it off a non reactive power source as I did in my demo video.

Adding an Inductor in the Network could have benefits but can be done in time once you better understand the effect.
I also think the Inductor would be of super low resistance and of low Inductance value.

I believe the basic effect is:

Electricity has two components, Voltage and Current,  if you separate them (90 degrees phase shift) and just allow them to flow through a circuit (series network) each component of electricity will be able to do their work WITHOUT crashing in each other (short circuit)

I think for the past 100 years we've been making circuits that just basically short circuits electricity and as a result we only have losses.

So maybe this circuit can be summed up by "Don't Kill The Dipole"

Looking forward in your test results!... good luck to all and please share your results to help the development.
