From the picture it appears that the thin slanted lines turn into small circles. Is that correct? This is using up more lamination then I thought, but you should still have enought lamination to generate the effect.

Holy cow! That's correct, they do line up to the slanted lines and those slanted lines do turn into the small circles. I hadn't noticed that. You sure are familiar with these particular cores. Did you design them or something? Thanks a bunch Larry.

Hi Luc,

I'm very excited about your latest info and that you will be visiting Thane. It will clear up many issues.

Also, from Thane's letter it appears that the air gaps were intentional to create the magnetic isolation between the primary and secondary and the 100,000/200 permeability were just the latest parameters entered in a computer program. This is great news as the available power just took a giant leap.

Thanks for all your efforts,
Larry

Here is again the letter toLUC in PDF format,
as not all people have WORD or OpenOffice installed.

I converted the DOC file via OpenOffice to PDF.
It is nice that it has an integrated standard PDF file exporter.

Just a thought:

What would happen if the centre of the core is replaced by a permanent magnet and the primary fed through a fwbr (no smoothing C's). Wouldn't it be logical to expect that when the flux created by the pm is larger than the (now unidirectional) flux by the primary that the bemf flux from the secondaries is blocked by the pm?

I've been thinking along the same lines (pulsed DC) and trying different shapes than just sine wave AC turned into DC; spikes too. I hadn't thought of the magnet too though. Good idea. The orientation of the magnet would have to be such that it is not demagnetized by the pulses. I especially like this when thinking of the junction between the two permeabilities as a diode and as a means of tapping ZPE EM waves.
