Zero and Q device

[lancaIV]

v8Karlo, you approve your findings by prototype !
Physics gives you , in minimum,  three types of electric power and the measuring method :

C1, C2, C3 = 22uF = constant


P = U * I


I on the capacitors is constant


You have 2 cases


P = 90 * I (constant)


P = 175 * I (constant)


If the current on caps is constant, with voltage you change power.


Very simple.

CZero
Sine AC, 220V grid, Europe

U = 270-300V rectified, that is why meter reads 90 and 175V on caps. On caps is DC. There are voltage drops also on diodes, but not that much.

Power on input
P = U * I




Power on output
P = ((2/3)*U) * (3*I)

2 is voltage doubler
3 is number of capacitors

Power on output is DC.

If you remove cap CZero P = ((U/3) * (I*3)) , now it is ordinary circuit which is usseles.

220V AC rectified is cca 300V DC.
That is why 90V and 175V and 525V.


Example :
220V/3 = 73V, but rectified it is cca 90V which your meter shows.


With square AC is simpler.

Put 2 Zero circuits with inputs in opposite phases.


Combine their outputs into one.


You have full cycle output.

Thank you so much for that simple explanation.  You have now proven without a doubt what I have been expecting for the last couple of days.  You do NOT understand the circuit you have been posting about.  Anyone with just a very basic understanding of electronics will tell you that the current through the capacitors is not constant.  In this circuit the current is constantly CHANGING.  If the current through the caps was constant the would mean the caps were BAD.  Good caps charge up and when they are charged the current drops to ZERO except for whatever leakage current there might be.  This thread has certainly proven how confused some people are about electronics.

This will be my last post here because there is no reason for me to waste any more time trying to help you.  Everyone that has tried to help you understand your circuit has been ridiculed.  So apparently you are not interested in learning anything.  Most of the people that have tried to help you have many many years of experience in electronics but you have ignored their advice.

You need to find another forum to post to.  There are many people on this forum that will gladly help someone that wants to learn.  But arrogant people like your self will soon find they are not welcome here.
