Kapanadze, Stepanov, Barbosa-Leal and the Secret of Free Energy

[Jeg]

Any luck so far swapping the frequencies?

Nothing my friend. There is still something missing. At least i have a board now with ten small transformers for hV which i can use it along with other experiments. But i still don't give up on this. I will post about this only if something hopeful will occur.

A board with ten small transformers for other high voltage experiments. That's an idea. But could also be, we need more than ten small transformers. Unfortunately, to the best of my knowledge, there are no small 50Hz high voltage transformers commercially available, except microwave oven transformers, but they are way to large for experimenting.


TESLA'S FIREBALL MACHINE

Could it be an idea, if we ignore the Barbosa-Leal patent (showing a kind of arc welder transformer) and instead we use a shorted coil step-up transformer, not a step-down one? To me that sounds more logical. The electrons attracted from ground are attracted by high voltage at 100Hz. Therefore, if we assume the energy of the electrons (negative charge) is in the high voltage, the 50Hz transformer should step it down, not up (seen towards the load). The question here is, will a shorted high voltage coil generate high voltage? I would rather tend to say no (schematic one), but with that kind of stuff all sorts of unforeseen things can happen. If the 50Hz high voltage coil is not shorted, then the setup generates 50Hz and 100Hz high voltage, phase-locked to each other; 50Hz is sinusoidal; 100Hz is pulsed. This is basically a setup like Tesla's two oscillator coils in synchronicity but at low frequency. One oscillator drives two frequencies. The two Tesla coils working in a frequency range of some KHz and thereby generating fireballs. So, could it be that low grid frequency can also generate something unusual? Both Tesla coils are connected to ground on their lower ends. The upper ends are connected together via a spark. Then should we perhaps connect also both high voltage transformers on one end to ground and on their other ends together? Actually that means connecting the secondary coils of two high voltage transformers in parallel, one runs at 50Hz and one at 100Hz, and both are also connected to ground, hence it is some kind of a short circuit anyway. Connecting the transformers in parallel could be done through a capacitor or - interestingly - through a spark gap as well. And then, at best, the setup will do nothing, at worst, it will burn up; or could there be a third option we are missing? However, we don't want to waste energy for the generation of useless fireballs, do we?

The 50Hz transformer works typically as step-up transformer (schematic two). But at zero-crossing of the 50Hz sinusoidal wave its secondary coil is biased by high voltage pulses of the 100Hz transformer, so it works at that point as a step-down transformer. Vice versa, the secondary coil of the 100Hz transformer is also biased by the 50Hz high voltage and therefore it could also work as step-down transformer. But since the 100Hz transformer is driven by a resonant circuit via a full wave rectifier, the step-down energy flux has nowhere to go but to charge up the resonant circuit. When the 50Hz and 100Hz wave (or pulse) is on its negative peak, there is no current in the closed circuit, means it should act like an open circuit. When the 50Hz wave is on its positive peak and the 100Hz wave (or pulse) is again on its negative peak, then there is a high current in the closed circuit. At zero crossing of the 50Hz wave the 100Hz wave (or pulse) is positive. So we have in that high voltage circuit either voltage positive or negative but no current, or current but no voltage. It oscillates from negative voltage to positive voltage to high current to positive voltage; negative-positive-current-positive-negative-positive-current-positive and so on. The high current should generate a strong magnetic field, maybe amplified by the previously attracted electrons. If one finds some suitable transformers for this, then it could really lead to a weird behavior of that setup. And, of course, this stays all in the scope of a wrong connected three-phase transformer. One high voltage at a higher frequency is imposed upon another at a lower frequency. Could it be that simple?


THE ETERNAL HOAX

One way or the other, it would be generally beneficial if we could get this to work. Because if we keep failing, then this means we are entitled to call Kapanadze, Stepanov, Barbosa and Leal, Mark, Gray, Smith, Moray, Methernitha (even Tesla?) fakers and hoaxer on the behalf of the government. So it would be very pleasant for all sides if we could avoid this problem somehow (by success). It is simply not possible that after decades there is not one successful replication of any of those claims if they are real. Also it would be strange, at least, if these are hoaxes and they would have contrived all these hoaxes independently on their own accord. I cannot see any reason, why one should go through the length of such costly fakery without having a solid cause, namely an order from someone above to do it in such a coordinated manner.

All drawings in this thread marked as »KAPANADZE DEVICE« show at least ninety-nine percent of the Kapanadze and Stepanov diagram according to all available information. Now, either we can assume that the one percent missing is that miracle one percent that makes the device work, or, alternatively, there is no such miracle one percent and therefore this is all just a big hoax. What ever you prefer to believe.

I found some good HV neon lamp transformers which can give up to 8KV at 50 Hz. But a very dangerous toy if you don't treat it right...

Many modern neon sign "transformers" are actually switch-mode power supplies and thus are unsuitable for Tesla-type experimentation.

It is easy, however, to build high voltage systems using simple ZVS drivers and old CRT TV flyback transformers. These will not be operating at 50-60 Hz though; they use low voltage DC input and oscillate at the resonant frequency of the flyback secondary for the greatest output (generally in the 20-40 kHz range).  If you really need HV output at 50 Hz there are ways of converting the flyback transformer's output down to that low frequency.
