Homopolar Generators (N-Machine) by Bruce de Palma

To all the current researchers of the N-Machine:

We did an investor funded project on this topic in the late 80's and built both a sophisticated liquid metal brushed Tewari type design (10kW) and then a replication of the Sunburst (2.5kW) with copper leaf brushes to get the resistance down.

There are many debates on the question of whether the field remains stationary or not and we proved conclusively that the field has inertial properties, meaning it stays stationary unless "compelled" to move by the geometrical shape of spining reluctance paths. The field will remain stationary enough to be used for reactionless drives hence the term "Inertial Field Generator" that we coined.

To cut a long story short we proved the Sunburst test results of Prof Kinchloe as being real and are a direct result of the geometry of the external stationary part of the circuit regardless of whether the field source (electromagnet) is spining or not. This was in fact shown (but not obvious until we discovered it) in one of the video demo's given by Bruce DePalma at a confernec with Mr Tewari, where the large output cables were moved by someone and you could hear the machine drive motor speed up and comments about output power increase.  This is exactly what we found by chance in our testing and is what decreases the back torque and allows an over-unity result. Lenz's law says nothing about the direction of magnetic forces and can clearly be violated under specific conditions. Unfortunately Bruce depalma died without discovering why the N-Machine did what it did and Adam Trombly who built a sophisticated high power machine suffered under a gag order. A lot of people went to ground as a result but its time to put this out there now there is interest again.

There are significant technical challenges in making this a viable generation technology but someone may be able to take it much further than we all could.  I have a whole bunch of Homopolar machine parts, rotor, brushes, electromagnet winding Kevlar encased and extensive data files with test results  to give away to a good home if someone is interested and seriously into this topic. Cost will be in freight as most parts are very heavy.

Contact me if you are interested and good luck with all the great work being done. Often we discover the most profound just by chance.

The two Homoplar machines from late 1980's project. They still exist but Sunburst replication was only one that proved sucessful.

Lenz's law says nothing about the direction of magnetic forces...

I thought that the essence is the word "opposes".

"An induced emf always gives rise to a current whose magnetic field opposes the original change in magnetic flux".

Jerry Bayles points out that the neo magnet coating is a mixture of copper and nickle, and acts like a copper disk attached to the magnet itself. This "Copper Skin" builds a charge on the surface that has no place to go until it reaches a potential to carry it across "Energyy Space".

I always wanted to make research with Tewari / Bruce de Palma kind of generator, but the machinery and the need for precise machinery work was over my achievement.
