Some thoughts on how the TPU might work.

Well were my questions so out of contex about the thyratron and the fast scr shut off time .. im just trying to learn the paths people have gone down and IS is here telling me im stupid for doing that and he kows the answer .. so  why would someone not carry on the intelligent conversation i started and addressed to you grumpy?

These comments are very close to things dfro posted in his first post on this thread so i will say again does anyone feel like discussing these things ..


Well its says The Thyratrons did the same function as the new scr's the only diff i'm seeing is it is a vacuum tube as opposed to solid state. The need to go to the quick off state is necessary because of the duty cycle timing 10 on 90 off and the "staccato of electrostatic bursts" that happen in the 10 percent thats on.  Take those concepts and read this sentence twice ... i think we found our answer.

"Currents are induced in relationship to the strength of the magnetic field     *** More wire .. larger feild****              And voltages are induced based on the "rate-of-change of that flux". Rate of change... duty cycle .. 10 on 90 off and a "staccato of electrostatic bursts" that happen in the 10 percent thats it is on.   
Tell me what you think

@grumpy,

i tend to look at it like growing a garden.  in all of my life i have never planted one where a weed doesn't grow.  maybe there is a safe place for weeds.  i think it is the place for debate thread. keep up the good work. as stephen marks said, " when you get the worst possible mix, that's when all kinds of things begin to happen."  who knows.

Hi Otto,

....Look at the distances between the collectors and at the distances between each collector and control coil.

I looked again at 3stack.jpg in
http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,3660.msg62585.html#msg62585

I would not have noticed, but you are right:
The distance (a) between the lowest collector and the middle collector is smaller than the distance (b) between the middle collector and the top collector.
golden rule i.e. phi !?
a/b = 1/0.618 !?

And the lowest control winding (black) is wound tighter than the middle one (blue). And the red CC-winding is wound loosest.

@gustav and Otto

Dfro makes these statements
"I would suggest doing pulse ratios that are in the Fibonacci series or each pulse being the previous pulse times phi.  However, the pulses may be tuned to a chord, like a major chord - root, fifth, octave, tenth (just a thought).  He has written about striking the right chord, correct?  I also think he has a solid state diode/cap circuit to step up the voltage from the battery for the pulses.  I remember reading about how to do this using diodes, caps, and pulses - it is basic stuff, which I don't know how to do yet."

and then the 3stack drawing shows the physical ratios of Phi     two conicdence's or not?

Why?

@ Grumpy
Thank you for answering    So in hopes to keep this thread afloat since dfro isnt posting anymore, what would be a good topic to discuss, possibly and orientation of the control windings vs the magnetic feild of the earth and sun pic? Or what design would be the best for folks to be on the same page with  the earlier or later models. There are a few tpu's here and it would be nice to relate a working concept to one design not 3 different designs .  After understanding that one the other two should not be greek.
