Did someone tried to replicate a Hendershot Generator ???

[Skysabre]

So sorry, the rewiring didn't work. I used the same capacitors in the Hendershot diagram, and then tested the unit. Later, I added neodymium magnets to the bar magnet. Still, no reaction.

Any more ideas? I'm not about to give up, not just yet.

Can you explain me in simple terms what the operation principle should be?


I only have a vague guess, when there are magnets and caps, it may be some sort of Back-MMF delay.

Something I noted was in the writings that he wound the capacitors on coffee cans (for the reason of size was right) but old coffee cans were ferrous... so you have a capacitor with a core that is also interacting with the coil... so while it could be a simple LC oscillator tank (2 of them off-phase)...


kind of like a horizontal opposed airplane engine pumps one side and then the other...


but anyway the C could be variable due to charges moving in the core... and or the capactitance chargine will change the free electrons able to particiapate in induction?


It was written as if 'this is the way things will always be' so it's hard to interpret some... but it appears that the russian one used normal barrel caps, and those are aluminum so that's not part of the idea.


Ideally a sign that it was going to would would be if you could get enough charge in the solenoid to affect the bar ... and conversly have a violent enough motion of the bar that it triggers the coils with enough voltage to result in enough current in other parts to do useful things...


First time I plugged this into LTSpice it generated infinite voltage; but it was over idealized and adding a capacitance in the solenoids fixed that issue....


The circuit is basically a few coils connected between capacitors with the other side of capacitors attacthed to other coils.  A few of the coils are also coupled at a 5:1 voltage transform ratio.


I would have expected conventional transformers to have too much reluctance/resistance; but my toroids that were 6:30 windings didn't help (didn't hurt probably but would have been more susceptable to lower voltages) (I would think)


the problem is there's no power supply to the thing other than the moving magent so it's hard to know how to put in a voltage to even see if there is any resonant tuning)


Hans Coler was the other one I was thinking of that works similarly

Skysabre,


just in case you won't make it work, here's a link to something that seems to work easily and convinced me more than anything else:

But you really have to make shure your grid consumption is not negative, otherwise you may be visited by special inspectors, cause they may notice your use of reactive power, and they hate it.

It would be best to use the system based on your own AC generator, that may run on car batteries, that can be recharged.

One man explain how made divice who consumig 100 W and output is 1-2 kilowats. It works on 50 herc 220 volts socket. But I not waranty, that here no error then he meashure. If anyone want, I can try explai how made this divice.
