Rosemary Ainslie circuit demonstration on Saturday March 12th 2011

LOL, I figured I'd get a response like that - "look everybody, I'm smarter than he is!!!"  Sigh, you really are that childishly pathetic.

I also like the way you avoided a direct question - Tesla's too big a game for you!  You and your motives really are transparent.

If you were at all interested in proving/disproving this thesis you'd open a thread of your own and stop trashing others.  The reason you don't is that you know quite well that it would fizzle out in no time, with you being the only one posting there - a bit like your crappy forum.  Why?  'cos anyone with more than a passing interest FE is familiar with your tactics and knows what a prick you are!!!

What's really sad is that Stephan allows vermin like you to do this.  He and this forum have obviously sold out long ago.

That said, I realise that I'm just adding to the noise here, which contrary to what you post, is exactly your intent.  So you're on IGNORE from now on.

Guys - especially Sprocket, Mags and Pete

This is very important.  Please read it carefully.

I have a very real concern that I think needs an answer.  I'm not sure what 'time' is applicable to any one of you - and since we're scattered around various time zones then it's possible that our computers either conform to our own time zones or to something preset here.  I have never myself 'joined up' as a member.  Harti always did this for me - just to accommodate my own idiocy.  I have grave diffculties doing this.  So I'm not sure what 'settings' were applied here.  But what I KNOW is this.

I posted my schematic on my blogspot - because I still find it relatively easy to do that there.  Within a heartbeat Poynty copied this to his post

Within 10 minutes of posting that schematic on my blogspot I posted this.

IN EFFECT what has happened here is this.  REGARDLESS of the time zones - what this shows is that Poynty was able to INSERT a post - set to a time that PRECEDED MY OWN PUBLIC POST AND MY NOTIFICATION OF THAT BLOG POST HERE - BY A COOL 5 HOURS.

He absolutely COULD NOT HAVE DONE THIS without being a moderator on this forum and on this thread.  And that gives some considerable pause for thought. 

You will then notice that he has also been given permission by Harti - to say pretty well as much as he needs to or wants to - and you will notice that Harti himself SAYS NOTHING.  One assumes he is too busy.  I wonder if I could impose on either Harti OR Poynty - to explain how they managed that post.

And Mags - it's true that we have 10 minutes or thereby to  edit.  I MARK my edits REGARDLESS - because I've been widely accused of 'going back' and changing my posts.  I OFTEN DO.  But it's because I'm relatively blind.  I can only really read them once they're posted.  And then I edit them.  I've now learned about the 'preview' function and am doing a bit better.  But neither you nor I can insert posts and we CERTAINLY can't change that time. 

I am now of the opinion that I am about to be booted off this forum.  Let me explain why.  TK was given carte blanche and full license to say what he wanted to get rid of me or the technolgy.  At the time I carried the dubious distinction of being banned from the forum without even joining.  More often than not my view of the thread was blocked via my IP address.  Then Glen was given license to flame my threads to death and certain closure.  And RIGHT NOW Poynty has clearly been given the same license. 

Then.  There is absolutely NOTHING WRONG with my emails.  Usually I am given 'due notice' via email of anyone posting.  I have RECEIVED NO NOTIFICATION OF THESE LATEST POSTS.  It happens EVERY TIME there's a sequence of postings that REALLY need an answer.  AGAIN.  That can only happen with the active co-operation of Harti. 

So.  I'm alerting you to the fact that I am possibly about to be kicked off here.  And secondly that Poynty is 'flaming' this thread with the full knowledge and approval of Harti - IF NOT WITH HIS ACTUAL STATUS AS A MODERATOR HERE.

WHAT GIVES??

ALSO.  I'll answer Poynty's POINTS.  God help us all.  Why do you guys not see the absolute NONSENSE he's applied to those measurements?  That troubles me more than anything.  Clearly he can get away with saying anything he wants IF he can also get away with such ASBURD NONSENSE on power measurements.  It's an ABSOLUTE TRAVESTY.  It is ERRONEOUS.  In fact it's LAUGHABLY incorrect.  It's ENTIRELY UNSCIENTIFIC.  What Poynty has done is FUDGED JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING.  But I have a problem.  We've got our 'gathering of the clans' as it's EASTER SUNDAY.  I wont be able to get back here before 3.00 this afternoon. But I see how REQUIRED this is.

If I've been banned before then - PLEASE CHECK OUT MY BLOG.  In fact, if I disappear from here GO TO THAT BLOG.  Perhaps I can impose on Pete or someone here to link to the blog if I get banned.  Otherwise I'll have absolutely NO VOICE to answer this absolute nonsense.
 
Kindest regards,
Rosemary

AND HAPPY EASTER TO those of us who celebrate.  In fact it's a festive time for just about all our religions.  So.  To everyone - HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY.

Regarding Hum's suggestion for moving the CSR, here are some results.

The CSR was moved right next to the battery as shown, while the 200nH inductance was left at the Q1 Source in order to maintain circuit oscillation.

The battery voltage is taken either with a DMM (valid) or with a scope probe. The CSR voltage is also taken either with a DMM (valid) or a scope probe. Note however that the CSR scope probe needs to be reversed so that the common can be at the battery negative terminal. This works out quite nicely, but note that the power value will come to a positive number, not negative.

The battery power is obtained by:

Vbat * MEAN[Vcsr] * 4 =>
72V * 120.6mV * 4 ~ 34.7W (should be negative)

Note the previous battery power measurement taken using the direct P(t) method in PSpice, was -33.3W. I changed the circuit slightly by moving the CSR and leaving an inductance in the Source, so this may account for the small difference in the measurement. At any rate, the two values correlate well.

Recall when the CSR was located at the Q1 Source, the power computation resulted in a figure of -9.94W. This is not only the incorrect polarity (should be positive), but it is off by a factor of 3x.

In conclusion, it has been shown that taking both the battery and CSR voltage measurements directly across their terminals, and with the CSR located as close to the battery as possible (outside of the MOSFET Vgs loop) will result in a correct measurement of battery power. It should also be noted that taking the average of both prior to multiplying them (as would be done with DMM measurements) is a completely valid method, and produces the same end result as the scope does.

Rose,

I honestly don't have any idea how you got the idea that I am somehow pre-empting your posts or that I have moderator rights here or some such.    That is absolutely false. It is also false that you are going to be banned here. That is all pure nonsense and tale-spinning.

Regarding the posts, what is it that is wrong with the results I've posted?
