Hi Jason,
connect always an about 100 KOhm resistor
from gate to source,
so you have the right potential difference between
these 2 points.

If you have a n-channel MOSFET which just does not conduct at
0 Volts but conducts at 5 to 12 Volts Gate-Source voltage
it must always have a positive Gate-Source voltage to conduct !
If you don?t wire a resistor from gate to source you might
get a different potential at the gate, which is not enough
positive versus the source, so the MOSFET does not conduct...

It really depends all the time on the Gate-Source voltage
if the MOSFET conducts.
If you don?t tie the source to ground, then there could
be a voltage difference at the source pin versus ground, so
the Gate-Source voltage is low or below zero, so the
MOSFET will not conduct...

Hope this helps.

mannix,
hey what if when you bent the iron rod in a circle, you then needed a third coil running in parrellel, to make it resonate.  then to control it you ran two over the top in series. and then ran them into one coil in parrellel.

i wonder if this can be tested with just simple transformers.  i keep coming back to that quote in my mind and the results dave was getting before going on holiday.  i don't mean for this thinking to throw anyone off a chosen experimental path.  just something else to think about from all that have come before us.

heck i'm still trying to get a grasp of one in parallel.

lol, keep up the good work,
sam

ive been trying to upload part 4 of the experimental videos for two days almost.
but the site keeps sending an errorr message.

so i throw it on google.

enjoy

Hi Marco,
what did oyu do in the last 2 parts of the video ?
Is this a one wire signal that you drive the control with ?
Where is the bright shining lamp connected to ?
To the green wire (iron wire ?) coil ?

Does the lamp light up,
when you just apply to one control coil a square wave
with just one pin at it ?
Or do you drive the copper control coils
around it with a function generator and with both pins
of the control coil connected ?
What frequency and what waveforms do you drive it with ?

Many thanks.
Just trying to catch up of your latest videos..

Regards, Stefan.
P.S: Where the ruler (lineal) connected to ?
Is it out of metal ?
Please speak in your videos, what you are doing, so
one knows, what you are doing.
Many thanks.

Hi all,

In regards to rotation of the magnetic field, I came across this experiment relating to electrolysis of water to make hydrogen.  By placing two ceramic magnets on the sides of the cell, the electrolyte (water would rotate).

Here is the link:  http://www.geocities.com/mj_17870/mag4.html


"To make sure that it was indeed the permanent magnetic field which was causing the water to rotate around inside the cell I first removed the magnets. The water rotation slowed and within a minute or so, came to a stop. I then replaced the magnets so that like poles faced each other. No movement was observed in the water. Next, I reversed the orientation of the magnets from the way they were at first (north pole facing cathode and south pole facing anode) and the water began to spin around in the opposite direction as it had at first. Then I switched the orientation of the magnets back to their initial positions while the water was spinning and observed that the water slowed to a stop, then reversed direction and came back up to full speed. In all cases the water would accelerate up to a certain maximum speed and then maintain that speed of rotation for as long as the current continued to flow. This speed seeming to be determined by the combination of the following factors; 1) the amount of current flowing through the cell and 2) the strength of the permanent magnetic field.



The question which presents itself here regards the mechanics by which the water below the electrodes is caused to spin. The electrical energy that is supplied to the cell is all accounted for within the process of electrolysis (between electrolytic conduction and heat losses) and since the amount of gas produced by  the the cell is not obviously diminished by causing the water below the electrodes to spin and because it takes energy to set any object into motion and then maintain that motion there must be another source of secondary or incidental energy that is being brought into play here by the configuration of the various components of the system and their orientation to and interaction with each other."


Sorry I can't seem to copy and paste image here and do quotes correctly.

Could it be possible that SM achieves rotation just by using the magnets as in this experiment?  Afterall, Steven did mention there were no massive electronics involved.  The electrodes would represent the verticle control coils and the collector coils would be represented by the rotating water.  There is an obvious rotating field here in this experiment.  Maybe this is a visual representation of the field of the TPU?

Hope this helps

Hi Tishatang

Yes that is the case, when i was researching the joe cell and stan meyer setups, i came across a video of a rotation or vortex when they had a ring magnet in the water, and provided current to two electrodes the water would spin, this indeed is a good way to findout what happens when we use magnets    http://video.google.com.au/videoplay?docid=2713270737018717005&q=joe+cell
