Holcomb Energy Systems:Breakthrough technology to the world

[Ufopolitics]

Do I understand correctly that in the device of Holcomb and the like with a rotating magnetic field, there are two types of magnetic field.  Two types of magnetic field that induce EMF in the secondary winding. A field that changes with time, similar to what happens in transformers. And a field that changes in space. That is, rotating. The first field that changes over time produces the Lenz effect.
And if we place the secondary coils so that they don't use the time-varying field, will we get rid of Lenz? 

Lenz is present in all field changes...in transformers, when you load secondary, the primary demands more currents from source...
In Generators, when you load them, you must increase the field rotational speed (in typical rotary generators we need more speed and more torque) to overcome Lenz...However, on the stationary rotor, we just need to speed up field, in order to compensate Amps Input (down) and Amps Output (up)...no torque required here...my small little motor can handle ANY size Magnetic Field Rotation...isn't that great?

That was my guess too. 
Floyd Sweet's nothing is something discusses this, he calls it motional E. 
The B-field induced by self-inductance of the secondary, aka Lenz, is always there if there's a current. Maybe this way it has no effect on the moving field, but I can't prove it.

I AM JEALOUS BUT I WISH YOU ALL GOOD LUCK. I AM TOO BUSY GROWING COCO YAM
JUST IN CASE OF A FAMINE IN SEYCHELLES.

Hi UFO,


That part I highlighted is not completely correct.  In a regular generator the speed determines the output voltage.  And the torque requirement increases as we increase the load drawing more current as you correctly stated.  The speed is controlled by the governor of the engine if an engine is used to power the generator.  If the speed changed the AC frequency would also change which would not be good for most appliances with induction motors.  But the governor maintains a fixed speed unless the generator is severely overloaded.


What is very interesting in your design is that even when you maintain the same speed of rotation of your field the voltage DOES change when the load is applied.  That may be because your generator is not capable of supplying the current needed by the load.  I believe if you load your generator with a smaller load more matched to your generator you would see it respond like a normal generator EXCEPT adding the load will not affect the motor driving the rotating field.  And THAT makes your design very interesting.
