Successful TPU-ECD replication !

[z_p_e]

Darren,
yes to all Roberto said,

Thanks for your valuable input. I dont think any of us expected the simulation to take into account the interactions of the high speed field and its effect/interaction with its local environment.

However simulations are fantastic for good circuit design. and a valuable tool in context.Thanks again.

@ Lindsay.

You're welcome. Just trying to help in any way possible.

I never expected radiation or other environmental effects to manifest in my simulations, and I did mention that at the start.

It was not my intention to give the impression that I'm done because the waveforms don't exhibit the artifacts Roberto is seeing. That's not one of the reasons, but sorry for the confusion.

@ Roberto.

Good luck with your research, and above all, enjoy the journey.

Regards,
Darren

PS. There's one last item I'm working on before I go. Hope to have it done soon. It's doesn't pertain to any one thread or topic, but should be helpful to all involved in the quest.

Thank you for your response.

Steven has never once mentioned a dds controller in fact the ecd is another angle to the same end we will see befor long just how close the origional ecd is.

All the info released is all of a general nature...that is why this is thread called ECD replication..

you are right about "experimenting"



good luck with your experiments

enjoy the show of pipes,radios and plasticene....I hope im wrong

Hi all,

really quiet over here...hmmmmmm



This is only important if you are building something..

Just in case there is any body still undiverted...sad really


Refering to the videos you will notice that all of the units are started up..then the load is applied.. they need to spin up first...they will not start if the load is connected.Calalyst requires a free run

Im not sure if this has been covered before..i dont think so!

Use this information carefully...unfortunately we are now trying to smoke things. and we are lookin for inertial effects in our devices.

jumping, jolting, vibration, smoke.

If they get hot you are safer ..

I leave open to suggestion how we safely run with no load ...perhaps a relay that cycles on and off every 2 seconds??

Perhaps fuses...like on the big coil in the videos?


The significance of this is to our experiments cannot be over looked.

Electron tubes will survive most this battering thats for sure...
I was running most all of my tube experiments with a load connected!!!!!arghhhhh

The danger is obvious...it means that Ottos experiment which blew up some things is what we have to do. In both cases the load was not connected..... Im sorry that this means blown fets ...and extreme frustration..
Lets work together on this and i politley ask that those who are not yet building to be patient whilst they catch up to here.

those who have built can see how abruptly the sweet spots happen....also how they need winding up to..like lighting a fire

So (thinking of GK) Gentlemen,breifly, remove your bulbs!

Perhaps 2 pipes is more your style? Ha! I still hope im wrong..sorts out the men from the boys ay?ever heard of a gelcel?

If I am I promise you all a full paragraph of humble pie.

@otto - @ronotte et al

Here is my ECD unit done to Ottos' V1.2 with the following spec.

Each CC having:
Primary - 8 feet - 0.015 lb - 23 awg - 0.5 ohm
Secondary - 30 feet - 0.015 lb - 28 awg - 2.5 ohm
Coil ends - 2 X Pogs (from my sons' old collection but real snazzy lookin) lol
Coil wound bifilar with continued secondary on top (No center tap) Hassle.
Coil Length: 1" interior x 1.5" exterior
Coil diameter: approx. 0.5"

Ring Material: 1/4" polyethylene tubing
Ring Wire: 16 awg multistrand 6" and 4"

Will start doing some less advanced tests like you guys cause I don't have the mosfets done yet, but everything else is here.

Yes sir and now we can play.
