Solid State Orbo System

Yes it is a little disappointing but this test was with the resonant oscillator
running and the phase between the two toroids was horrible. We get better
result with a switch that has frequency and duty cycle control. My toroids
are not optimal either. Remember that this is the first system thrown
together just to see if the method works.

We have also proved that when using resonance then
the input will be greatly reduced.

Would the output coil need to be resonate at twice the frequency as the toroid control coils?
This would make more sense because when they resonate there is a positive side of the wave and a negative side. The only time they would be conducting the field from the magnets is when they are off and that would be at the zero crossing point of the wave.

@gyulasun,

Thank you for sharing information in this thread.
I agree that lumped circuit matching can be used in this case.

@exnihiloest,

Thank you for commenting and sharing information.

Can you share the test you did regarding that magnetic saturation of a material
depends on the direction of the magnetic field? And maybe explain more about
your test?

If you look at the various motors then you can see all the different ways the
toroid core is positioned, horizontal standing, horizontal flat etc. And the
motors do run.

I will try to test this with a toroid core, a magnet and
a generator coil that can be positioned in any direction on the toroid.

@lumen,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I have not yet tried to measure the output coil frequency.
Right now I do not have a running system because of other
testing.

Hi A,

In discussing this project with some others this evening via telephone, a suggestion was made to make a steel horseshoe and link the magnets to see if a clearer path for the flux, might allow for better performance on the coil generator.  This was also suggested, I think by Gyula some time ago.  It would be an easy experiment, just use some angle iron or the such.  It would be worth a try. 

A simple large C clamp alone would be enough to gain from the horseshoe effect!
