Quantum Energy Generator (QEG) Open Sourced (by HopeGirl)

Nice work Ariovaldo!

You show the motor is consuming 760W. And the current probe shows 1.88Amps (?). What is the voltage on the secondaries? I can't determine it from the video as the motor sound is too loud over your voice.

120/125 volts.

By my estimation 1.9 Arms in the secondary is pushing the limit for 20AWG in a transformer, where a safe current limit is 3 A/mm^2.  20AWG is about 0.5mm^2, which would work out to 1.5 Arms.  So if you ran the thing for a while at the level, you might over heat the primary winding. 

My guess is that you could add some more light bulbs.  The QEG has the interesting behavior of putting out more power as the output resistance is increased, right up until the point the resonance get damped out. 

Did you say the frequency of the primary was 192Hz?

You might want to see what kind of voltage is developing across a single lamp.

What are those 100W lamps?

Cheers,

Fred,
The frequency is in the secondary . 192/195 Hz. The current is in the secondary. My secondary is the same that the "hope girl" shows in the schematics, just the wires has diferent size. Instead 350 turns of 10 Awg, I had 350 turns of 2X16 awg that is a little bit less amps than 10 Awg, but enough for the load..The lights bulbs are in parallel, so has 120 volts across.

Is it close to the resonance frequency by calculation?
Apparently you use supercap no?
They not have a realy high dielectric strength.

Ari,

Can you make a posting where you state your measurements and observations?  Also a simple schematic of your setup and your measurement points?

It's important to present your measurements yourself, along with your YouTube clip.  Even if the measurements are disappointing it's very important to state them.  Everyone that does a replication should do the same thing.  That also applies to the 'official' teams in Taiwan and Morocco and everyone else.  I have to assume that some of those teams are also following this thread.  Proper measurements and proper documentation are critical issues in understanding what is going on.

For example, what is the output frequency?  Are you using a clamp-on meter to measure the current through the light bulbs?  Is the clamp-on meter able to properly measure current at the measured output frequency?  If you are not sure then what is the manufacturer and part number for the clamp-on meter?  Is the clamp-on meter only able to measure the RMS value for a sine wave or is the clamp-on meter a true-RMS clamp-on meter?  What is the voltage waveform like across the light bulbs themselves?  That's an example of how important it is for any experimenter to properly document what they are doing and how and where they are making their measurements.

Good morning!
I will try to answer the questions!
1) Coils- Primary:- 2 coils of 20 AWG wire 3050 turns each one. The inductance with the rotor installed is about 15 H each one. This change when I run the rotor by hand...
2) Capacitors: The capacitors bank are 7.600 volts rated and I have more than 30KV of insulation calculated and I have 0.156 uF using my " cheap"  instrument. Calculated should be 0.125 uF.
3) Coil- Secondary:- 2 coils of 2X16 AWG wire 350 turns each one.
4) The output frequency that I measured (195 Hz) was in the secondary and I need to do some more tests, since something is intriguing me and my tachometer is not working good.
What is intriguing me is: When I start to run and I speed up to reach the resonance point, it looks like that the FREQUENCY JUST LOCK UP in this number ( 192/195 Hz). The more that I try to increase the speed, more increase the output and input power. It is strange, no?


I will post some more information.
About schematic, I will try to send it tomorrow. Here in my home I have just iPad and it's no so friendly for me.

Ari,

As James said the thing will kind of phase lock.  Really a wall of resistance to drive torque forms at the resonant frequency.  It requires more and more drive torque as the system approaches the exact resonant frequency, and it will output more and more power in proportion to that drive.  Then if even more power is applied the rotor speed will exceed the resonant frequency of the primary circuit and the resistance to input drive will fall off sharply and the resonant oscillations in the primary will stop.

What is the inductance of the primary when the rotor is aligned perfectly with a pole, and what is the inductance of the primary when the rotor it aligned perfectly in between poles.

I was also wondering about the DC resistance of the primary and secondary windings.

Thank you for your previous answers.

Cheers,

Fred

By the way, the cogging torque of the QEG is probable causing jitter in the angular velocity of the rotor, and that jitter is probable giving the tachometer a hard time determining a steady state rpm.
