Holcomb Energy Systems:Breakthrough technology to the world

@bistander,

Have you by chance had any experience with Magnetocaloric Effect?

I don't know if it's applicable to the HES machine, but Holcomb does use a lot of iron.

Hi Dog-One,
Until now, I don't think I've heard the term. Seeing the definition, it's doubtful that it applies to Holcomb's process, but I have no idea what his process really is. Magnetocaloric Effect is as good of a guess as I've got.

Harvesting energy in the form of ambient heat seems like a viable idea.
At least it is clear where the energy comes from. We thought about that.
But what about thermal inertia? To heat and cool iron 60 times per second,
transformer cores must be the size of an inkjet printer nozzle.
Whoever solves this purely engineering and inventive problem will have it.

Once again, I confirm that the Holcombe machine works according to the algorithm of a conventional synchronous three-phase mechanical generator.
I found all my theoretical conditions in the design of Holcomb's machine.

I say again, a brilliant engineering solution.

The difficulty lies only in the management of switching and maintaining the mains voltage when connecting various loads. Such systems deserve a good engineering team and production. For a garage master, they are difficult, primarily in the full chain of calculations and manufacturing of cores.
I have clarified everything that I need, therefore I turn to my development.
My development is impulse and, as it turned out, intersects with the system of Clemente Figuera. Now I know how his converter worked and what was "not shown" in the 1902 patent, and what was revealed from the 1902 setup in the 1908 patent.

A rolamite has nothing to do with the holcomb device it was just an idea for a low friction sparkless mechanical switch with regards to the figueroa device.
The reason I posted was because I see some possible correlatipns between the two methods, the moving field and "A unique method of harnessing energy from the magnetic domains found in ferromagnetic and paramagnetic materials"
In the drawing you have two closed magnetic circuits.  If you were to map out the fields in the inductor array based on input to the individual switch positions you see how the fields break into two loops between positions 2-8.  All that was covered long ago.  The reason for the ferrite rods is due to that. The ferrite gets magnetized for free aligning its domains and then this stray field that magnetizes it moves on as the switch position changes. Now, what happens to this piece or ferrite as its field collapses in this closed magnetic circuit?  Essentially, I think if the these devices are overunity its due to heat.

@Cadman,cifita, if your trying to do electromagnetic FEA on Linux you can try FEAtool, new, haven't played with but it's free and integrates with Matlab, that or COMSOL.  Don't know what version of Linux you're running (I'm on Manjaro) but you could always run windows in a VM and push most of your cores to it for running simulations.  QEMU/libvirt is great, has a bit of a learning curve, but you can do a lot with it. My current rig is running Linux/Mac OS/Windows (concurrently) no problem and have built 2 other systems like that for my nephews.
Side note on this. A while back I posted in this thread regarding correlations I noticed between this and the 1908 Figuera device.  I haven't really gone in depth on this device but I believe it could work two ways (together), 1st is what I posted "heat", here's a link to JNL Labs for the 2SGen http://jnaudin.free.fr/2SGen/indexen.htm, if you scroll down to the bottom of the page there are three links under 'Interesting Documents to Read' related to this.  2nd which never occurred to me when working on my version of the Figuera device was that Holcomb must have added some open path into his closed magnetic circuit to collect energy from the environment.  It's most likely  just some physical section of his device where his excitation fields (budget) are allowed to pass thru (outside of the generating sections-budget) enhancing the total B field and collecting the excess on collapse/change (budgeted section) .

What took so long to get here?
